The two got into a fierce back-and-forth on X.
Although Vlad tried to paint Wayans as unprofessional, the actor pointed out in his replies to Vlad that taking his business negotiations public was a “silly negotiating tactic”
“You mad? You unprofessional my guy. If you don’t like the number keep it moving. You look BAD. You should fall back. mad at a Black man stating his number?” Wayans wrote. “And now you go public and use your platform to try to drag me. I never in my life dealt with this silly negotiating tactic.”
Several users also weighed in, saying that Vlad generally seems to take issue with Black people who assert their value and worth and don’t back down.
Like his infamous social media interaction with Princeton professor and niece of Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins, Morgan Jerkins, the latest dust-up provided more ammunition for those who disapprove of Vlad’s tactics.
As Wayans told him in the replies, “You been teetering on disrespect and I’ve been a gentleman up until this point. This was tactless, unprofessional and petty. You out here trying to tear down a king. You trying to instigate beef within my community and peers. It won’t happen fella. I’m loved.”
Wayans added, “I’m worth whatever I say. People like you don’t make or break me champ. I’m self made. I go where i choose.”
