In this clip, Van Lathan spoke about moving to Los Angeles in 2005 and being determined to make his own way. When Vlad spoke about his experience living in L.A. for the first time and feeling like it was fake, Van explained that he sees a lot of people falling into the same trap because they get caught up in what they believe is the L.A. lifestyle. Van then detailed how he took the bus to his first job at a video game company, and he added that he met a lot of real L.A. people by interacting in his community. From there, Van spoke about how people succeed in L.A. by sticking it out and figuring out their own way. To hear more, including Van speaking about celebrities tricking him into not being filmed for TMZ, hit the above clip.

A lot of people are fake. Period. Just stay true to yourself.

or fake it till u make it. that fake sht is a game within the game. if u understand that you can win
It's hard to stay true to yourself. I find that I end up if being isolated the realer I get

Van is so spot on. As a native Angeleno, it always angers the hell out of me, that people say LA is fake, it most certainly isn't, you choose the company and the LA you want to have.
Big facts and I’m from Florida I’m definitely with you in this bro
@@jeremynelson6173 mostly the white peeps be fake in la. I even met some latina girls who was broke but acted white and superficial
Facts. The people from LA are real. It’s Hollywood and the other industry avenues that have the “fake people”. And the people coming from outside LA just want to be a part of that “fake” crowd.
I agree with Van. a lot of people go to LA to become a star and hang around hollywood circles and call LA fake. LA is much bigger than just hollywood. There is a lot of real people outside of hollywood.
Because once they leave Hollywood they gone get robbed, I like people like that coming to LA, they’re easy targets 😂
@@ivishernandez7612 there he is 👮🏾♂️
LA is fake
@@CyberAscendant it’s really not
But that's the issue: folks go to L.A to be a star.Van didn't go to l.a. to do that but the starstruck feel let down.
I heard most porn stars went to L.A to become legitimate Holly wood actresses. They didn't set out to have sex on camera for a living. A lot of actors actually came to L.A. to become actually musicians but fell onto acting as a side gig. I think Depp was one of them
I Was born in LA and grew up there and it was never a “Hollywood” experience for me it was a very real, sometimes rough, but very community driven experience it was lovely. We were all just trying to make a living.
I'm not from L.A. and would love to visit. However, I think they are saying in the entertainment industry or people trying to break in....
Yes! True! I miss my city!!
As someone who grew up in cali I couldn’t agree with van more. People shit on la but never experienced the real LA
Exactly!!
The real LA is dominated by violent gangs. So, it's either fake Hollywood types and gangs. Those are some bad ass options. Yes, I know other shit is there, but tell me LA's reputation isn't predominantly entertainment industry and gangs.
LA is one of the worst cities to live in lol. Weirdos everywhere and extremely overrated
Thank you for the comment
@@searching4pawgs495 Downey, Whittier, Montebello, la habra etc…. Places that arent dominated by gangs but have regular ass people
As a New Yorker: vlad's take on New York City is 100% accurate. We're very blunt & direct. Fronting to you does nothing for us.
Facts! Ain’t nobody got time to be wasting time in NYC lol
I feel like that's more in northern states. I'm from michigan I can relate
@@TrayTrucking yea there's fake everywhere cor sure. I just think in general people don't pretend to show good manners and be nice and accepting but really hate. You don't feel the love in northern states like you would in the south which goes hand in hand
Absolutely. I'm from Queens. We're very honest and hopefully it doesnt hurt your feelings but if it does I dunno what to tell u
@@MikeSmith-px4hs Queens here too. Corona. LeFrak City
People move to LA and meet a bunch of people that’s not from LA then say people from LA fake , not those outsiders you met here are fake, go across pico and see the real LA
EXACTLY!!
Theyre not interested in meeting people across Pico. Those people cant help their careers.
@@michaelpenis5948 RIGHT..Then they should stop saying that the people of L.A. are fake because Hollywood does not represent the entire city/county of Los Angeles.
real LA mfers know whats up
Exactly! Like 60% of ppl in LA aren’t even from there.
Van is a very intelligent , genuine guy..I enjoy hearing him speak & his perspective on things..Super glad he parted with TMZ..He was /is Above them…
I agree with Van. LA is what you make it. I moved to LA from NY and I didn't encounter fake people per se, however, I didn't notice that friendships tend to be a bit more transactional here. In NYC, you had to "prove" yourself or loyalty to generate a friend group. In LA it's more about supporting peoples business and ideas, showing up to events, buying their goods or services if they are an entrepreneur. It's not bad, just different. Friendship relationships are different in the South too. I have met really good genuine people here is LA. In LA you will run into fake people just like anywhere else, but you may run into more of them if you hang out around those circles.
I lived in LA... That city is filled with the most vapid social media controlled creatures
True
I can see how someone like myself from nyc can see this way of friendship in LA as fake . If i was broke and couldnt come to ya party or buy ya product then what?
@@jblaze400 Shouldn’t that be up to you? Why is everybody acting like NOT being able to rely on nobody, but yourself is LA’s problem ?
You came here, we didn’t ask you. Nor do we care about Hollywood. We live real life.
You just literally described why it’s fake lol
As a LA native, the concept that LA is “fake” is so old and and misrepresents the overwhelming majority of the city and the people. People purposely move to specific parts of LA to just be in the industry and often times, the “fake people” they run into are transplants themselves. If you only want to be in that industry, you’ll only really associate with people who also want to be in the industry or ones who currently are in the industry. But that is such a small fraction of LA. People are coming here with the desire to be in certain fields and they’re interacting with outsiders and giving them the interpretation that LA people are something they’re really not. Most people are real as hell, and live real ass regular ass lives. I think people should stop saying “LA is fake” and should say “the industry and people apart of it in LA are fake”
hit the nail on the head
*I absolutely hate it when mfs say “just keep working hard, your day will come”…….. Hard work doesn’t mean you’ll make it in life or achieve you’re dream’s, life doesn’t work like that……. You need connection’s/people to get ahead*
Thanx bruh...... Finally somebody said it.... The only thing you need to "work hard" at meeting solid people with solid connections 💪🏾....
Depends on how hard you work. A lot of people think they're working hard. You may be working harder than your family, friends and associates who have accepted normal lives. I lived it. All through high school, I was obsessed with making it to the NBA and worked out regularly. I didn't make it, obviously. Long story short, once I realized the kind of work it took to even have a fighting chance, I was blown the fuck away. Most people have no clue what it takes to be good, let alone great, so fall short of the effort and ultimately fall short of the success.
True! The poorest people in the world are the hardest workers
u need a realistic plan , whether u have short cuts or not , realize your circumstances & work through them .
That’s part of the hard work lol
Martin exposed that on his sitcom when varnell told him to come to Hollywood to get put on. Very funny but true show lol.
Facts
Good point
Great Analogy
Varnell Hill with Marty mar
That's Hollywood Talk man !!! 👉🏾
His momma had such a huge impact on his life and it's awesome. She let him know that he can do anything and supported him like a mother should do. That makes a huge difference and molded the mind of a winner. We need more mom's who really care as much as she didn not every kid is gonna win at life but the chances increase with that type of love and support. Holla
He must be talking about the Hollywood side lol Most of the cats who are in Hollywood aren't even originally from L.A, I'm not from L.A but some of the most thorough people that I've met are from L.A. There's real and fake everywhere at the end of the day.
I believe you because I’ve been to the real LA and I love it. I have family out there. Im from Texas and I’ve been to NY and I don’t like NY as far as the city itself and I can’t picture myself living there. Everything is so close to each other as far as buildings, homes, its too fuckin crowded and they have to walk everywhere plus their is a shitload of traffic. Im a music producer myself and what I understand about LA is that they support their own people including outsiders. NY is so close minded and even if you’re from the south, like myself, or if you’re from the midwest, they’ll be so quick to call you a country bumpkin and they’ll shit on you. Idk what the fuck Vlad talking about. I believe LA is better.
@@SoulOfTheSouth because you a i10 baby Los angles blacks are from the south ny blacks are foreigners
@@marcuscole1994 Technically most Americans are foreigners if we’re being technical but blacks have been in West for a long time (relatively speaking), as for NY, it’s a mixture, a lot of cats there moved around but NY definitely used to look down on the south & mid west, if we’re being honest it’s only over the past 5-10yrs that they’ve been forced to show other sides some level of respect. If you were from out of town; it was almost impossible to survive in NY & you certainly weren’t gonna be favoured for anything
@@hakshustletv you speaking false because most of the kingpins of ny are from down south and ran dat bit. Black American were born and bred in the USA in breeding farms so we are an American product. Lol
@@SoulOfTheSouth did you say NY is close minded? When's the last time you been to NY? Maybe the 90s but the past 10-12 years or so NY so diverse from people to music if you go to NY you going to hear Music from Every Region I wouldn't call that close minded
None of the people IN Hollywood are even FROM LA.
I understand what he's saying but I think everyone has an unrealistic time table. Everyone is trying to get to the bag as quickly as possible. So you try to get in that circle not work at the gas station, take long walks and hope to bump into some executive that has pull
Definitely not everyone.......there are alot of people that base their success off of values and principles that they live and die by and by no means am I referring to the streets
Can we acknowledge how Van looks like he could be Kanyes brothers? lol
True
Kanye mixed with Gilbert Arenas. Along with Gil's speech pattern
So L.A. humbled Vlad and he’s had that chip on his shoulder ever since 💀😂
Basically...Das what his ass get!🤣
I dunno, what he said has been my experience as well
@KC Jones Super Facts 💯💯💯
Hit the nail on the head andres 🤣 lmaooo 💀
Once you go pass Wilshire Blvd (going north), you have entered “Fake” LA because mostly ppl from other cities/states move out here and get apartments around that area and it’s not a lot of ppl that were born and raised in LA, like Van said go to Crenshaw district, Inglewood, Long Beach, Compton, South Central if you want to see real LA
Nobody trynna go to the Hoods of LA with all them Gangs u ptoly get shot for wearing your fav color hell nah
La can be fake
Salute born and raised on Hyde park and west ifykyk
To many Mexicans I hate LA
@@uncleleroyshoodoocorner8113 every major City can be fake
Vlad explaining LA reminds me of the varnel hill episode of Martin 🤣
Classic episode 😂😂😂. Man, "Martin" was the best. I miss the 90s comedy, movies, hip hop, r&b and party scene.
@@MichaelBrown-ti1un facts 🤣
😂😂😂😂 TRUE STORY!!!!!!
One of his funniest 🤣
Van is on a different wave length. Protect Bruh at all cost
Vlad was spot on. People in LA will tell you they have a meeting with HBO when you ask for directions
Hilarious but sad lol
Man that’s hollywood shit. Go to Downey, East LA, Inglewood and places outside of the Hollywood shit
LOL 😆 🤣 😂
LOLLL
@Elijah Walker That part.
I Actually understood both point of views. But let me just say I'm thoroughly enjoying this interview. I can see him becoming a regular on this show
Vlad is definitely tight about his past in LA🤣🤣🤣🤣
Born and Raised in LA.. I will honestly say it’s Fake as hell… everyone here has to dress to impress… you gotta drive a hell of a car.. it’s pathetic.. it’s why I’m moving…
Nipsey was an example of the realest to come outta LA. There are so many of real people in LA. You are who you attract out here. Lol.
La not fake but it will bring the fake outta u
@@civiliantv7906 Im born and raised in LA. Still in South Central. I don't understand any of that. Ive always been myself.

Nip was the only
Nip ain’t real lmao stop it bro only tried to help out his Crenshaw and slauson community
New York is the money capital of the world they don't have time to b.s anyone time is money and we can't waste a new York minute
When you’re talking to people in LA, most of the time they’re on a interview. Everyone is trying to figure out what you do so they can possibly network with you
That’s Hollywood; not LA. Van just explained that.
I lived in North Hollywood for 6 years Van is actually correct
I love his perspective I think that’s the right to do it when you move somewhere! When I moved to Florida I just wanted to meet people and talked to everyone!
Funny, growing up in LA we would call people who acted bougie or snooty or fake “Hollywood”
Van is right. Been seeing people come here all my life and only chill in hollywood.
Yeah that’s crazy that would prolly be the last place I wanna go if I came to California
5:08 That’s why I love the East Coast! Straight to the point no b.s. Either they rock with you or they don’t!
Van is a real one. Smart organic guy. A rare specie nowadays
A real what?

@@ratskate9951 true, but at least bruh went 100% in, that bs above just lazy
Most of these celebrities don’t even know the dark side of LA because they come there established
Van has the right attitude but Vlad is definitely correct about nyc. I'm from NJ and people generally don't care to waste time on your feelings they are straight to the point and don't give a fuck if you like it. People elsewhere call it rude but I respect people that don't bullshit me. My cousin in LA is the exact type that vlad described.
Yeah, we keep it 💯back home. (609) stand up.
I’m from the south and we have the fake bs southern hospitality…I hate it…you never truly know where you stand with anyone…I was born and raised here for 41 years but mama is from Baltimore so I think that changed how I perceive things…I hate the sugary sweet fakeness of the south I’d rather have it like NY or NJ 💯
Regular people don't get enough credit for being some of the realest people.
"The fakeness of L.A...."
I'm just going to put it out there and state that "fake" people come from all over, and that people who, from what I've observed, are quick to label an area as "fake" tend to not be genuine themselves.
LA is fake because of all the outsiders. real LA dudes is cool but all the fake celebs make hollywood fake
This "fake people come from all over" thing sounds nice but the reality is that in some areas of the country, being fake is part of the "culture." For example, west coast people are very passive-aggressive. I've seen people move to other parts of the country and when they came back, they had different personalities because they assimilated and took on some of the less than desirable traits of the people in that area.
And if I'm going to be really real about it, I've found some races/genders to be noticeably more fake than their counterparts.
Yeah fake people come from all over... they come to LA lol. I live in San Diego and can affirm the subculture of fakeness in LA is not unsubstantiated.
Not really true. Yes, fake people are everywhere but like many have said sometimes it’s part of the culture. Having lived in parts of cali myself, I think it depends. I’ve definitely encountered the areas of fake people, but I also been to parts of the city where people are genuine af and will give the shirt off their backs for you. Has nothing to do with people who are fake themselves, just their perception of a given reality.. from my experience O.G. Californians we’re always dope. Once I had no where to go in Anaheim and this lady with kids of her own offered me food and everything. This new generation moving there can give less than a fuck about you though.
Van, you literally just proved Vlad’s whole point. You got the spin move from people in LA and the only person who kept it real with you AND let you crash at his place was a guy from Baton Rouge.
I’m from the Bahamas. I lived in San Diego for a while training for pro basketball. Anytime I went to LA, my skin literally would crawl. I been sayin this for years “I HATE LA, it’s the fakest place I’ve ever been in”
@@TheWatcher818 basically ur one of them bc you don’t get it.
You missed the entire point. Just because someone isn’t giving you something, doesn’t mean they’re fake. His friend was his friend. Period. Nobody in LA owes you a break. Vlad left when he couldn’t get a handout. Van stayed and thugged it out, like a man’s supposed to.
Van looks like Kanye West's older brother
He’s younger than Kanye
Van is smart, hes talking about concept of la and more of ppls motive.
Naw Vlad didn’t get the VIP service & left. Vlad wasn’t about to get a job & do real work just to live in LA. He left, that’s ok too
Word! Van said some real shit, especially about building yourself around fake ppl
most people in l.a. aren’t even from l.a. when you meet people that are truly from there, they’re some of the realest, coolest, most welcoming people you could ever meet! i got friends i met from years ago living in l.a. that are still and always will be my ride or dies.....
I agree with Van. I live in LA have worked in the entertainment industry and booked gigs but also haven’t been chasing that Hollywood life and all of that entails. Just embracing the grind because that fakeness is there but there are plenty of real folks from LA. Like Van said Black people get to Leimert Park and Inglewood where there’s real folks there.
East LA and watts too
@KC Jones what can black people in LA do? Majority of the homeless in Cali aren’t even natives to the state
@KC Jones it’s really only a severe issue for the community if natives to that community end up experiencing homelessness, but that’s difficult to gauge because a majority of those that come to Cali were either already homeless and want to panhandle from wealthy people or they came to Cali with ambitions and weren’t prepared for the realities of Cali
@KC Jones it’s been addressed multiple times why there’s so many homeless minorities and the large part of it is due to drug use/past riots
@@wavydavy1289 right it’s kinda hard to help when most who are on the streets are due to substance or alcohol addiction
I live in LA and I'm already making my plans to get out of here. I've lived here for several years and can fully understand Vlads perspective. It's hard to find authentic connections with people.
Peace out. I, for one, will applaud your departure. We need less ppl here. Especially those who have no appreciation for the city.
@@dxavier3787 I will gladly leave my friend.
@@A.F.9322 Safe travels ✌🏾
Honestly if you want clout, be prepared for the rollercoaster of real and fake any big city. You notice people in smaller towns nearby are actually way more friendly, self sufficient, and some are entrepreneurs with land. I’d rather live life like that and be able to break away from the matrix when I want to . A lot of these people in the industry cannot
Lol ya New Yorkers don’t cookie cut shit. I’m born and raised in LA, from Inglewood. Took a visit to Brooklyn and everyone is beyond blunt. It was refreshing. I think because New Yorkers have zero time in their day for BS.
It takes a minute to siphon through people and know whose genuine. Most of the time I don’t take LA people seriously until they show me they are… still love my city though 🥰
Ny cut throat af especially east New York (the part of ny you talking about) , ppl be on the go no time for fake convos Chicago also has a similar brotherly always on go attitude also
NY folks are direct because they gotta defend themselves against all the mice and filth (former new yorker myself..bx. Happy i left the hellhole)
Vlad proved his point lol and bruh hooping with people is way different from doing business with people
But what he’s saying is right bro u never know who u hoop wit and become coo wit knows he ain’t lyin connections are everything
You’re slow.
Vlad is completely right about the Hollywood scene. Most people are fake and leave the door open just in case you get more successful than they do so they might be able to capitalize off it. Real ones are even more rare than in other places. I won't tell my real name on here but I was in many movies as a kid into my teen years and quit because of these reasons and moved back to Minnesota
Do you ever miss LA or are you just grateful to be back in MN??
@@ivyreece9925 I miss working doing what I love, but I don't miss LA at all.
@@jakek6728 why not please share with me lol
@@meshaevans1964 because of the reasons stated above. Maybe if I grew up there it would be different but growing up in MN where everyone will stop and help a stranger, I saw how selfish and self centered most people in the industry are.
Being a native of L.A Van you just dropped some nuggets, for those coming to the Golden state. I hope people are not just listening to you but hear what you're saying.
LA is two sides of the same coin. There’s a side that’s super real and a side that’s super fake. I’ll say this though, the Hollywood types are masters and hitting you with the spin move.
I THINK THEY DROPPED OFF BLAD IN SANTA MONICA BLVD @ THE BLUE OYSTER AKA BUTTERCUPS 🤣
I agree with V Lathan and I’m from Los Angeles … my city is always going to be best to me !
I think it depends on the type of people that you’re dealing with. If you’re mingling with “Industry” people then you’re gonna get Industry talk but if you’re mingling with The Average Joe you’ll meet more genuine ppl. Since there’s such a huge Industry population in LA the fakeness stands out more than it would in another town
There's nothing fake about L.A.....the drugs are real......the crime is real...the rich is real.....the poor and homeless is real. The high azz gas is real.....the expense is real. There is real fires..... eatthquakes...flooding...you can win a real lotto.....smoke real drugs that can really f up your life. What Glad is talking about is an exception to the rule.

Van is right, but damn if him pointing his finger in vlads direction didn’t feel super aggressive. Tense energy.
Shout out to Tommy for holding down his boy until he could get on his own. That's a real one there. Van is so right, fakeness is everywhere, you got to tap into the real.
I’m born and raised and since 2014 (social media) the cities fakeness been at an all time high. A lot of us natives blame it on the out of towners coming in with disingenuous agendas. Started to stick to myself and Had to be careful who i interacted with. Don’t let anybody take advantage of you then I moved to the south and was able to breath socially. Great people down here. Don’t get me wrong I have tons of life long brotherly friends in LA... a majority are born and raised but they don’t be out like that cause of the social climate. Very hard to find those types of ppl. Good luck out there. Clout is a hell of a drug. I have many stories

This is hardly the first time L.A has been accused of being fake. Must be some truth to it.
Exactly
I'm from NYC. I feel for native LAs. The first 3 people I knew from here who wanted to move to LA. Every single one was a super shallow superficial cornball fake status chaser. I was like damn bro, LA literally attracts all the status chasing cornballs of the entire country.
He explained where the truth lied. Pay attention.
Vlad just pulled his own card, banned his self from L.A.
Too many people trying 2 be in the entertainment industry, have expectations & be looking/investigations on the obsession with past myths/bad experiences but there hard luck has nothing 2 do with Hollywood being fake
Wow. I’m from the Bahamas. I lived in San Diego for a while training for pro basketball. Anytime I went to LA, my skin literally would crawl. I been sayin this for years “I HATE LA, it’s the fakest place I’ve ever been in”
Van take sounds *universal* while Vlad sounds like someone that had an idea of California but had no clue. You adapt to the reality/place not your premeditated thoughts or hearsay from someone else
This is the "Hollywood Talk" that Varnell Hill was talkin about in that episode of 'Martin'
Van made a very good point. When ppl can tell that you are looking to come up, they'll shy away from you because they fear you might just want to use them or their crowd. But Vlad also has a point. Ppl do have a problem being honest when they simply don't want to do business with you. A person's time is irreplaceable and should be respected. It's an act of selfishness to give someone false hope and set up meetings that you know you won't attend, just because saying "no" makes you uncomfortable.
My family moved to Los Angeles in the early 70's, when I was 21. Los Angeles was beautiful , great weather , beautiful landscapes, buildings and homes. It was so much fun growing up here. We were a real family surrounded by real people! I visit New often because of my boyfriend. New is griddy, dirty, dark, creepy and scary! And the people are crazy as hell! Yet they constantly hate on Los Angeles you can take out of the jungle but, you can't take the jungle out of people!
You couldn't have convinced me he wasn't from L.A. when I used to see him on TMZ. He doesn't have his BR accent anymore after living there for so long. But you can tell he's super down to earth. Sounds really wise about life.
He sure doesn't, very well spoken
It comes out sometimes, listen to his podcast Higher learning.
I'm from Inglewood. I never even mingled with "Hollywood" until I moved to Atlanta. 😂
Beautiful LA. Homelessness, high taxes, absurd politics/mandates and sheep people/celebs. Amazing 😍
Excellent point Van ...I needed that advice 7 years ago...Vlad you made great points as well, both arguments are valid and very true...
He seems like the type that will be friends with a woman for years before telling her he wants to be with her
What is wrong with you🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
People from LA are cool. It’s mainly the people that move to LA.
Vlad is right people in LA will always say yes 🤣🤣🤣 I hated that fake shit
Van gives a great piece of advice about moving to LA and that applies to anywhere.

This guy went all around to come right back and basically agreeded and solidify what vlad was saying that LA is fake
Lol
🤣🤣🤣that's fuck up Let's set up a meeting for 12 o'clock.
Then Vlad show up like I'd play myself
Im a stand up comic. I debated moving to LA or NY for my career. Ive been to LA 4x. Born and raised in Philly. Living in NY now 7 years. Its fake for sure but also a lot of realness at the same time. All depends on who you are. NY is more direct but also fake and hollywood as well. Even Philly has fake hollywood ppl just on a local hollywood attitude behavior
There’s honestly fake people everywhere you go you just gotta make sure you don’t associate yourself with those people even if you work with them don’t have them in your circle
Exactly 💯💯
La comedy is smaller but harder cause it’s not as many spots as nyc
I moved from the Bay to Boston and what Vlad is saying 100%true speaking from my experience of the 2 regions.
I mean niggas is running from the cops then dancing on live tv wtf is that?
Van and Vlad are both correct about L.A. But, I still love it..go figure.
Im from Long Beach. Van speaking facts 💯 👏.
I like people that are straight up. Don't waste your time or mine and also don't be sensitive. I will respect you a lot more if are honest and tell me the way it is.
Don’t pursue a career in entertainment.
5:47... When he started talking I thought about Martin on the 'Varnnell Hill Show'... Classic!!! 😂😂..
Vlad really just talking about the different business experiences between the two cities. Not really the full experience of the city.
FACTS!!! I have a similar story. I moved to LA to get away from the "industry" of ATL. I was already in the "industry" and wanted a normal life. Sounds crazy but I have family here in LA. Of course I ended up working in production for the "industry"! But I really just wanted to live here and enjoy the beautiful weather, food, ect. I can see how VLAD has this outlook but some of my closest friends are LA natives and the coolest ppl in the world!!! NO cap!!!
Vlad can't laugh at himself.
Van went levels beyond on Vlad…..
LA has 13 million residents. Kinda hard to generalize anything at that scale.
Van Lathan speakin' that 💯% factuals on the L.A. run down. West Up...
Van has a thing about putting words in my ppls mouth
You either deal with “fake people”, or become fake. The only real thing about the industry is that to really make it, you have to sacrifice something about yourself, or someone. Talent is not enough.
People are fake every where . U learned that from the people that work around u .
4:32 I'm from Chicago and I just lived. Just lived outside of LA. I worked in the film industry and build up. So I agree with Van and I worked hard to be where I am.
Nah, vlad is right. Even normal people in cali have a habit of feigning interest, this does not happen on the east coast. If they arent interested, youll know before the conversation is over, in cali youll know when you dont get a reply to that text
As a born and raised Floridian that's spent ample amount of time in East coast cities/towns, I can agree.
Things are not as they are but as you are. He’s spot on
I pray that every man gets their passport and see how much abundance is in this world. Amén 🙏🏿🙏🏾🙏🏽🙏🏼🙏🏻🙏
I’m from Houston and I been to LA 6 times and I’m trying to move there now!!! Nothing fake about it!!!
That Cybernet job sound LIT
