Vado - Da Hated (feat. Dave East) May 2026

"Da Hated" by Vado and Dave East is a raw lyrical portrait of transitioning from the dangers of Harlem's public housing to the success of the music industry. The song, which often pairs with a video , focuses on overcoming a "hated" environment, the grind of the rap hustle, and handling the jealousy that accompanies their rise to the top.
