DJ Vlad thinks Rory Farrell is “trash.”
6ix9ine turned the tables on Vlad and interviewed him for Vlad TV, where the rainbow-haired rapper asked the host who has the “wackest podcast.”
Without hesitation, Vlad answered, New Rory & Mal, which is hosted by Farrell and Jamil "Mal" Clay.
When Tekashi said he “never heard of them,” Vlad responded, “Exactly,” adding, “Rory is just whack. I don't know about Mal, but Rory is just trash.”
Vlad’s comments arrive after Farrell recently made headlines for attempting to apologize after old racist and misogynistic tweets, primarily aimed at Black women, resurfaced. Last week, Rory hopped on X Spaces to address his decade-old tweets; however, he just seemed to make things worse when participants called him out for being “sarcastic.”
In a clip from the X Spaces session, Mal asked Rory if he was being canceled, prompting Rory to respond jokingly, “Yeah, I hate Black women. I think all Black women are ugly.”
Farrell maintained the mocking tone when he said, “I only think white is the only pure beauty, as you know, as I tell you guys all the time, how much I love white women.”
While Farrell did eventually outright apologize, several users in the discussion said he was being “condescending” and “deflecting.” He went on to tell one participant, a woman, “I’m not apologizing for anyone that has said that I’ve called Black women ugly or roaches. That’s all I’ve said—I apologize for everything else. Don't ever say I have called Black woman ugly or roaches or anything that y'all have been trying to put on me because I never said that."
However, screenshots of Farrell’s tweets from 2014 show him retweeting someone who wrote, “Black girls look like roaches.”
Additional tweets from that time appear to show him retweeting other messages like, “I've never saw a good looking black woman,” and, “Every black woman has either, wanted to, thought about, or actually fucked a white guy #whitepeoplefacts.” He also allegedly called Beyoncé’s name “hoodrat” in another tweet.
Last Friday, Vlad reacted to Farrell’s comments in the X Spaces, tweeting, “Rory spent years talking shit about me, trying to push the ‘I'm white but I'm not like Vlad’ narrative. He was right.”
Vlad added, “Now, everyone sees that Rory has always been racist towards black women. I'm nothing like him.”
In another tweet, Vlad wrote, “Rory really deactivated his whole Twitter account. What a pussy.”
It does seem that Vlad is correct, and Farrell has since deactivated his X account. While his Instagram account is still live, it doesn’t appear that he’s addressed the controversy.
