--------------------
In this clip, Toure discussed his relationship with Russell Simmons. He went in depth about his feelings regarding the sexual assault and misconduct allegations currently set against him. Toure even revealed being around when Russell Simmons first began bringing Kimora Lee around. The thing was, she was only 16-years-old.
Later on, Toure and DJ Vlad debate about the fallout of the Simmons allegations. To Toure, this has tarnished Russell's legacy to an irredeemable point. Moreover, he talked about knowing one of Simmons accusers personally and how that swayed his opinion about the man.

Shout out to Toure for standing up for his friend who told her story about being sexually abused by Russell Simmons. We need more men and women like him. 👏🏾👏🏾
Cap.. Should have said something then and there
@@MIA58923 uh uhhh y’all love victim shaming hopefully you don’t go thru something like that
Meanwhile he was fired for sexual harassment lol! A hit dog will holler!
@@MIA58923 there are a bunch of women in your family right now going through something similar.
Most won't say a thing until they no longer care about the opinion of people like you.
This
The moment he asked Vlad, “Did you read the New York Times?”
RIP Vlad 💀
Lmao
That was cringy. Vlad didn't read the article and he was off base on thinking she was suing for money. Vlad exposed his inadequacy.
Just got to part. Ummm you need to research before you interview folks 😒
‘I skimmed it but we did cover it’.
@@gizzy2324 LoL 😆🤣... You caught that too right. Didn't know the accusation but had already made an opinion.
I always thought that it was weird that Russ started messing wit Kimora when she was a teenager and he didn’t hide it and everyone knew about it
@Kathryn Dorsey yes it was stop bullshitting
@Kathryn Dorsey I know who brad pit is? Sht you must be old
@@randomeventstv lol
One of Diddy baby mamas HAD his child when she was sixteen. Cause his family just lost Kim nobody saying a word. 💯
@Kathryn Dorsey It is still wrong nevertheless.
Around the 8:00 mark. Vlad describes one of RS's accusers as "the blonde girl", Toure responds with "the film producer". Brilliant.
Toure is a real interviewer you can tell the difference between him and Vlad
Toure is a journalist. Vlad is not a journalist.
@M A Interviewing is a part of journalism love....its called journalistic interviewing in which he clearly conducts....
@@kstatedelta He's not a real journalist, more like just a talking head. Most real journalists don't get featured on mainstream tv.
@@kstatedelta don't bother ur debating with people who watch Vlad tv as their news
i'm sorry but that man is kinda building a foundation of historical people and happenings in an enviroment where people are used to shut their mouth. only a great journalist like vlad (and ofcourse a few more) have the skills to make them open up so i think you are totally wrong!
So true. 7:48
Toure made it obvious Vlad is only really talking about what he saw on breakfast club 😂 poor journalism.
So true. 7:48
He has doubted every allegation I've seen on his show and backs the abusers every single time
That’s not actually poor journalism. It’s research.
Also, why wouldn't you read The NY Times article as preparation for this conversation?
Toure~’’Did you read the New York Times story?” Vlad~ “Uhhhh, bahhhhhh... I just skimmed through it”. I’m sure Toure’ is thinking, “ You are a hack, you ain’t no real journalist”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
vlad read the damn article but he is subtly tying to protect Russel, they are friends
Russel is apart of the protected class. The media barley trashed him during the me too movement. And now he’s back in Cali doing his thing. After fleeing Bali.
Toure seemed really irritated with Vlad’s style of interviewing and was really challenging him to do better. I hope he does so in the future. Otherwise, he will be wasting a lot of people’s time in the future.
Cause Toure is an actual journalist
So true. 7:48
Vlad provides an echo chamber to those who already share his points of view; if he likes you, he skews his interviews to tossing softball questions to his guests, as one might do with friends at a casual party. If he doesn't or he has a preconceived notion about you and who you are, then he wants to portray himself as a journalist asking the tough questions. Toure, on the other hand, as a professional, is capable of separating himself from the subject in order to get the story, where Vlad just wants to tell stories... including name dropping who he knows and with whom he has spoken. Toure is interested in providing information to his readers, where Vlad is interested in providing entertainment to his viewers. It's pretty clear in Toure's responses both physically and verbally that he and Vlad do not operate on the same level.
Black people elevate a lot of mediocre white people. So you reap what you sow
@@artisttemple8268 yep and @1:45
Toure has the most beautiful speaking voice.
Glad to know I’m not the only one thought that ☺️
Toure really exposed Vlad when he asked him did he even read the NYT's story. And then he straight leveled Vlad when he contradicted him to explain Drew Dixon wasn't asking for money.
Vlad didn’t read the nyt story if he did he wouldn’t have said the stuff he said.
When Vlad meets a real journalist... get your facts straight!
So true. 7:48
Toure called him out about that Breakfast Club interview... I miss honest journalism.
Now look at your boy Toure.... he has allegations on him now !
YALP. I never would have thought such a dweeb would do that. I thought he was asexual.
@@meganrobinson1707 lol yeah..you never know !
@@Hoodhistorian562 What allegations?
@@Lootroq his former makeup artist ratted him out about sexual harassment by him on the job. What rock have you been under? lol look it up
Russell is a Hiphop legend as a CEO and started the most monumental record label ever in Hiphop, but he’s had some wild allegations about him for a long time. The man has been accused of some wicked allegations for over 15 years. Who knows what perverted acts he committed when he was getting coked up in the 80’s.
Fuck him
R. Scott if so why did Russell step down from all his business and haven’t spoken out about the allegations or sue them for false allegations
I think you misunderstood my comment. I said he’s had so many wild allegations for such a long time and that I believe he has been a pervert since he was using cocaine back in the 80’s.
he did coke AND dust u know he was doing some dirty shit
He was doing stuff in the 90s too...Kimora was in her teens then
Vlad does absolutely no research on his topics
So true. 7:48
When u realize just how young 16 is 😲😲
...or disgust 👀
Whew, just strange
I had a goatee and was 5’11 180lbs, totes guns and sold drugs, had been stabbed and was very sexually active and had a drinking problem
How old is 15 really...Dave Chappelle
It’s looked at as weird in America but not in some foreign countries
Lmaaaaooooo. My man exposing these online "journalists". Basically regurgitate garbage from other blogs and not do any actual research.
Technology helped people skip steps. It comes out in: music, journalism, reporting, etc. Everything is dumbed down because anyone can get on because of the access social media provides.
Everything is dumbed down to the point that those who have mastered their craft are ignored or accused of trying too hard because the creativity and integrity bar has been lowered so much.
What about your current moment Toure anybody going to say something about his current case selective idiots yes
So true. 7:48
Russell Simmons has said on numerous occasions that he spotted Kimora Lee coming down the runway. He she was so beautiful and graceful he had to have her! She was 14yrs old at the time. Now 2yrs later she’s a “guest” at his home at age 16?!? I believe all those women until proven otherwise! His girls have to read or see horrible things about their father. Innocent people stay and fight for their reputation and family. Guilty people pack a bag and passports so they can go hide in Bali.
1989-1991.
His daughter now 21 with a man older than him😢
We're in R.Kelly land! 😂
DwightByrdJr That Had Me Dying😂😂😂😂
How old are we talkin 😂😂😂
🤣🤣 come on now
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
But no one talks about Elvis fking Priscilla at 16
that shit happened like half a century ago and the man been dead since 1977 LOL
And guess what?!? People talked it about when it happened, you just weren't around back then.
We Worldwide! Shut up
- typical fa99ot reply
Actually, there was a book written about how Elvis used to have sleepovers for fourteen year old girls. He's right. His behavior had been whispered about for years BEFORE he married Priscilla.
We Worldwide! It’s not a reply you stupid sob
Toure's words are dope..
I think this subject might be too nuanced for your usual audience, Vlad.
Nuanced?
Nancy nuances killed the game
Who does an interview without researching your material??...🤔
So true. 7:48
I was thinking the same damn thing 🤦🏾♀️
I clicked on this interview of person that I'd never heard of and it was the best string of interviews (saw all 6 parts) I've seen in a LONG TIME. Toure was very knowledgeable and not off putting the way some interviewers are (fox news, and Meghan Kelly). I wish him well. Vlad your opinions of Russell Simmons were underwhelming. I realize you don't want an innocent man crucified but being harassed isn't something that is funny at the time that we later decide to lie about. It's awful through and through and when it comes from the likes of a Bill Cosby or Russell Simmons they have the power to ruin your life afterwards as well. PLEASE for the women in your life, get the facts and adjust your focus.
I get it...the thrill for "celebrities" is doing taboo things that us "regular" people would be shamed and/or jailed for.
And normal things that excite, stimulate, and satisfy normal people, simply don't do it for them anymore. They're basically dead and need extraordinary stimuli. Imagine being able to have as much sex with the most beautiful women in the world. After a while the high wears off faster and faster and you'd need bigger doses. This is the draw of sex with younger and younger people. if sex is a drug your tolerance increases so you need purer and purer forms.
I know for a fact the legal age of consent in Georgia is 16. So why isn't nobody going after the states for having this law?
Thats the same law in md as well
@@guyedmondson5666 it’s only a handful of states that don’t allow consent at that age actually. The world is a sick place.
@Error Report that’s fair.
@Error Report what’s the difference between 17 and 18? Mentally? I feel like If age of consent is because of childish minds then the age of consent should be 25 when the brain is fully developed.
Most are Romeo and Juliet laws where is a 4 years from 16. Like 16- 20 anything over is not good with the law. So either way he is wrong because he was well over 30.
Touré is a legend. Great segment.
So true. 7:48
I read a book by Russell and from he even wrote about wild stuff he did. When I heard about the allegations against him I wasn’t surprised.
I’m happy this man stood up for a change
Now Touré wants to speak out lol 😂😆
Jerry seinfeild had a 17 year old GF during the height of career and everyone knew and no one said anything
I remember that she was a cute andvery busty brunette. The news media and shows like Entertainment Tonight reported it like Jerry was just being a little naughty. But that was i!. No punishment for good ol' loveable Jerry Seinfeld. Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis. Woody Allen especially should have been behind bars.
@@marcuscarr123 that’s kinda funny bc she started a lingerie line
@@mokeygreen i dont doubt it.
@@mokeygreen Shoshanna Lonstein. She also did dress and swimsuit lines. All of it was cute. And successful!
Ummm probably cuz it was legal in that state.
I don’t believe in it if it’s illegal.
He said “we’re in R Kelly land” 😂
Toure getting a lil buck. I love it
So true. 7:48
Dont know who he is ..but he looks perverted himself
See how looks are deceiving lol sry tor..
Toure has me cracking up here and Lord Jamar's life lessons are the best!!!
Sup with this incriminating title? Careful Touré lol.
Erect Pen did they change it?
Why is a 35 year old talking to a 16 year old?!
If Kimora was a white 16-year-old girl, this story would've been completely different 😂
Not really, Steve Tyler did the same to a white girl and nobody gave a shit... Nice try
Hmmm, what about the 14 yr old white girl that was with Epstein?
Russell Simmons was f×ckin a 16-17 year old Kimora...end of story. I still respect the fact that he played a pivotal role in the elevation of hip-hop...but he's a strange guy.
Im not absolving him but maybe he realized how wrong he was... Cause everything Simmons said was accurate... That may have been him clearing his conscious
🤷♀️
If someone damaged your property, it makes sense to sue for damages. If you rape a woman, she shouldn't sue for mental, emotional and physical damages? She's not worth $5 million. Gotcha.
@Abstract Jack no, it's not weird to me... because I worked in child psychology for 6 years. The field of sexual trauma is not a new field. This is normal behavior for people who have experienced trauma. Your opinion doesn't matter more than an entire scientific field with decades of research behind it. I also don't see many cases of women sting and winning settlements. 97% of accused rapists never serve a day in jail. You might want to educate yourself on this topic.
There tone sounds the same but Toure is way more detailed in his description
@2:13 Use the Hugh Hefner template. A lot got swept under the rug regarding him while he was alive and still to this day. By the way, what was the nickname that Hugh gave those quaaludes, that he gave to Bill Cosby? Hmmm....
@5:52 Yes you are. We see right through what you just said right there.
Spanish Fly
Toure is a legend hope he knows it.
I hope something don’t mysteriously “happen “ to touré, they need to call out these industry perverts
VLAD should be good at journalism by now
If I get lied on I'd be furious & tryna shoot fades with everybody. I'm firing back like Tavis Smiley 😂
Thank you, Toure. Bye bye Vlad.
What a tangled web we weave , Toure’..... ✌🏽
It's interesting watching this now that Toure has been accused of misconduct.
Glad heavily researched Lil Baby’s YDC records but “skimmed” through Russel Simmons sexual assault allegations 🤔
THIS!!!!!!
Love Toure he’s very matter of fact.
"Did you read the New York Times Story?"--TOURE ..."Uh, we covered it," but I didn't read it. No...--VLAD
Michael Walker he on r kelly azz 1:19 - 1:33
And he's a fucking so-called journalist
So true. 7:48
I am NO Vlad defender, but with the amount of stories that came out, it's difficult to read each article. I doubt anyone googles something and then reads EVERY link to ensure they do not miss something.
It is odd with all these comments down talking glad, myself included at times, that we still give his videos the time of day.
I can definitely write his shit! Which version do you want? His real life or just his accolades?
Gays and Women stick together like good Kush. SMH.
No wonder he lives in Bali smh R Kelly was too broke to leave
Well we can’t looke at Touré anymore the same either. The pot calling the kettle black.
😂
What’s that mean?
@@isharee3039 when you do something u accuse or talk about someone else of doing
lmao "how old we talkin?"
How you report on things but dont do your research vlad
So true. 7:48
Russell Simmons been in Bali since December 2017, damn son! #FreeRush
😭
He's probably moved around to other countries......
She was an international model at 16 and have personally talked about relationships before Russell an that definitely wasn’t her first grown man. Everyone needs to be held accountable. She was looking for a stable bag and he was looking for a young girl 💯
Thank you! I literally remember as a Teenager watchin’ Behind the Music, Russell Simmons episode & she literally said that she dated older (European White Men) prior to Russell Simmons.
Thank you
Saying a 16 yr old was looking for a "stable bag" as if she was a gold digging adult woman is disgusting. Most 16 yr olds expect to be taken care of.
@@Bih1stOfAll Is this ya’ 1st time in Adulthood?
@@moseshanon7060 If you agree with pedophilia just say that
Why interview someone on a topic that you yourself can admit to not knowing enough about? All you have to go by is the information being provided and as soon as it’s hard to digest, you reject the information based on biased and not the actual legitimacy of the story in question. “I Skimmed through it.” Like what?
Where is Rev. Run?
Paul Davis laying low
Running with rev
At runs house
He don’t want his past coming back up so he chilling lol
at church
The difference between 16 and 17 in New York, is a difference illegal and legal. Now I get your point, when I was 30 I wasn't looking for 17 year old girls hell I wouldn't even trying to deal with 20 year old girls, I think most people want a mate that is closer to their age, but there is a reason why at some point people are considered old enough to make decisions and at the end of the day if you don't like that then change the laws.
Touche Toure! Vlad tried to diminish these women 8:02 by grouping them with the blond lady suing.
Toure is a real journalist
In my heart I wanna believe they are innocent but damn ain't nobody coming to some of these guys defense? Something had to happen, just send prayers out to all.
First sentence: "he liked em young"
This interview didn't age well for many reasons.
Toure reminds me of Jeff Goldblum
The sound of "okaaaaaay" in vlads voice when toure is getting anamated about "well was 16 or 17" when he was right there with them
Russell Simmons has burned his legacy to the ground.. There's nothing left and the people who were Complicit in his deprived insanity shame on you..
This!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏
Love the way he talks about a 16 year old being with a 30 year old man, and doesn't realize he's exploiting her too. The time to talk about this was that night, to Russell NOT NOW. Arrogantly talking like he has a moral high ground.
Her parents allowed it
💯💯
@ Rich 👏👏👏...
@@otisyoungblood So does that make it acceptable???
@@pulabam4064 didn't say that but no one was exploiting anyone everybody involved got what they wanted
Toure has a moral compass, Vlad's is 💰, the end.
A lot of these celebrities dated teens. Seinfeld,Paul Walker,Elvis,etc.
I’m sure there are several ppl dating under age minors. It’s strange no one cared enough to say wtf are your doing? Ppl include suing because of pain and suffering, who knows what these women suffered.
Wasn't Toure accused if sexually harassing co workers? If the allegations are true this interview is super hypocritical.
I don't like the fact he was trying to make it seem cool that a 30 year old guy hanging with a teenager.
Vlad is not credible at all. He Doesn't do any research smh
What is it about powerful moguls with young kids
C Moe You got money and nobody's gonna say shit, so rather than looking at a teenage girl and feeling guilty cuz she's a li'l bad, you now have the power to go up and fuck her cuz what's the worst that's gonna happen?
Also African American culture and American culture in general just RECENTLY picked up this idea of "18+", mostly from porn. A few decades ago, there was no real social backlash that came with a grown man having a 16-year-old girlfriend. Under 15, 14? Yeah, people don't fuck with you but a grown man smashing a high school junior was normal back in the day.
All men like 15 year old girls. Don’t lie to yourself. They just deny it. Watch their eyes and actions.
@@Straightjacket154 nigga what
@@Straightjacket154 hell nah you trippin
@@AJ-sw8uf no, your trippin. I remember when I was 13, 15 and 16 like it was yesterday. Men who were 27, 30, 36, 40 and even 50, where chasing me. Never have I been a 10. People are just perves. Now, I’m 40 and see men my age and older gawking at youngsters. I remember in high school how grown men would park in front of the school and try to pick up girls.
“I covered a story that I did not have the full information about” hmmmmmm
He's seems like a stand up guy, but he knew exactly what to with his properties and to move to Bali and Thailand which they don't bring him back to the U.S. to be arrested.
Yep, no extradition also plus all the travel restrictions
Elvis Presley dated 13 and 14 year olds however no one's talking about that....
That's because he's dead. We can't pull them out the ground and make him stand trial or his accusers
@@themo7 Michael Jackson is dead and they are still accusing him of child molestation....ijs
DO YOUR RESEARCH!! That just irked the mess out of me to hear you say you SKIMMED through an article that you were going to interview about?!?! That's like taking the cliff notes for your book report, what school did you go to??!! We learn this in grammar school....sources matter!!! Journalism 101.....
👌
drink everytime he says " I mean look". You'll get a nice buzz
As far as Russell Simmons... I always said that was P on Layaway. 🤷🏾♀️
Age of consent is 17 in NY,
18 in NJ, and 16 in CT.
If they were in the Hamptons the difference between her being 16 or 17 is about 15 years. How does he not know that?
That’s one of the the issues, the “legality” of things. You know it’s morally wrong as a 30 year old to fuck a 16 year old. That is a kid tf you want that for & not a grown woman that can really do something wit you. People who think it’s ok just cause the law says is ok is fuckin simple minded people that can’t think for themselves & need a government to do that for you. I know you’d be so upset if a 32 year old was long dicking your 15 year old child.
Sicko
He wasn't arguing the legality of it, he was arguing the morality of it. What does a 30 year old man want with a 17 year old female? Whether it was legal or not, it's a red flag!
Still vlads best interview.. and that because of toure leading it and correcting vlad.
Russell touched it in Miami.
W Rilez ooowwwww
🌊🌊🌊
I hate HouseNegroes Like Touré , vlad didnt even ask him alot...Touré whole career has been attacking black people....how you almost get beat up by bow wow
IsmokeHiphop Live Facts 🤣
How does reporting on the shit someone does = attacking black people? None of us are obligated to defend other black people who are doing wrong/dumb things.
IsmokeHiphop Live he also lgbt. An emotional man
Julian Green Exactly
You “covered” a story you didn’t read on your platform ???? How irresponsible are you with your craft??
As talented as Vlad is, I often feel like he is still auditioning to get into the cool Black Men’s Crew.
We are already in R Kelly Land🤣
Damn VLAD on his Hannibal Burress vibe
He talking bout he knew her as a person of integrity but had no problem when this 40 year old man come with his 15 year old date who he had kids with. Smh.make it make sense
Watch who u hang around
Prime example of people holding onto info for their own selfish reasons cuz they got cut off
Vlad messy af 🤣 he asks the questions like he's not trying to start anything....
It's been a subject for years on end with Russell & his obsession with "young, tall, skinny bitches" & having his way when HE wants it...
Why didn't Toure say anything when he saw Kimora was 16 and Russell was in his 30s? He seems to have been cool with that for a long time until it suited him to say something. Not defending Russell. Just saying there's a bunch of weirdos who helped cover shit up but now are acting outraged.
Goodone, and I don't codone underage situations. But why not speak up then? I know why. Because alot of those situations was normal or allowed back then. Times are changing. So while the rule changes get the people under the new rule. Not over consensual situations that happened 20 to 50 years ago. Children and riches were made. Now rape is something different. Again I don't condone men messing with underage and HELLO I don't condone women doing it either. So balance "me too "out Jada Pinkett smith etc... lovers. Women fight to be equal so continue to make it equal and that's with crime too
I actually have been told by many people that Russell is "in the life."
I have no clue what that means
@Error Report Yes, LGBT.
Loving this guy...must know more of him
