Boosie Badazz Claims He Makes $500K a Year Doing VladTV Interviews

Earlier this year, the rap veteran also revealed how much he makes to appear on podcast episodes.

Boosie Badazz is loaded, apparently thanks to VladTV.

On Monday, the rapper was a guest on Power 105.1's The Breakfast Club, where he claimed that VladTV pays him a hefty $500,000 per year for appearing on the platform.

Breakfast Club co-host Charlamagne Tha God told Boosie that he should launch a podcast series with frequent collaborator and fellow New Orleans native Webbie, which Boosie declined.

"Well, I don't want it. Because, yeah, I could make half a million with Vlad every year, man. I don't really need it if it ain't gon’... Vlad help me out a lot more," Boosie said.

Surprised by Boosie's response, Charlamagne asked Boosie outright if the rapper makes $500,000 a year from VladTV appearances. "Close to it," Boosie responded.

Boosie's newest claim comes just months after he revealed on a livestream that he's paid $40,000 for podcast appearances.

“[Podcasts are] way safer than that club with all them guns in that bitch,” Boosie said in March. "[I’m] in front of somebody who ain’t gon’ hurt me. I think y’all should be happy I’m doing podcasts. I’mma live long doing podcasts. Way less dangerous than doing [clubs].”

He continued: “Would you rather do a show for [$60,000] or podcast for [$45,000]? I made that decision the other day. I took the [$45,000] over the [$60,000]. With the $60, I had to pay for flights, hotels, going to a dangerous-ass city. Shit is about being careful, man. I can sit for 45 minutes on a couch and just talk shit.… That’s a blessing, bro.”
