In a revealing interview, comedian TK Kirkland shared insights about the infamous 2001 concert at the Oakland Coliseum, where Vlad was caught in a massive brawl that shut down the show. Kirkland, who opened for the Cash Money Rough Riders tour, described the tense atmosphere in Oakland at the time, noting that rival neighborhoods rarely mingled peacefully—until that fateful event when violent clashes erupted. He recalled how the promoters’ decision to place folding metal chairs on the floor backfired as they became weapons during the fight. The chaos, involving police drawing guns and fans being thrown off balconies, led to canceled shows and significant financial losses for the tour. Kirkland emphasized the impact on the hip-hop scene, with venues becoming hesitant to book similar acts. The incident stands as a stark reminder of Oakland’s challenging environment for live hip-hop events in the early 2000s.
