DJ Vlad Criticized for Threatening Black Professor’s Position Following Comments on Drake-Kendrick Lamar Feud

DJ Vlad recently found himself at the center of controversy after sharing his thoughts on Kendrick Lamar’s new diss track aimed at Drake, titled “Not Like Us.” The conversation took a heated turn when Morgan Jerkins, an  author, editor, and professor at Princeton University — also notably the niece of famed producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins — responded to Vlad’s critique of the track’s mix, emphasizing that he should refrain from commenting on what she termed a “Black Folk Affair.” DJ vladgetty images Vlad’s response to Jerkins’ initial comment sparked further debate.

Jerkins clarified her stance, asserting the importance of centering Black voices in discussions about hip-hop culture, which seemed to only escalate the situation further. dj vlad tweets The exchange grew increasingly tense, with Vlad hinting at contacting Princeton University about Jerkins’ remarks and even suggesting he might influence her professional standing.
