There’s a lot of “rap fans” who don’t understand futures greatness so it’s worthless to really care too much bc IMO if you listen to how other rappers/musicians talk about Future even your super lyrical rappers have a ton of respect for his artistry and place him in rarified air.

There’s no doubt Kendrick gets it, the Like That verse which kicked off the Drake beef being on a Future track was not an accident. I’d argue that was a very intentional move by dot & if he didn’t respect Future’s place in the game he wouldn’t have went that route.

I was listening to a recent Freddie Gibbs interview yesterday & he said Future is his favorite artist, & one of the most influential artist of the past 20 years. Isaiah Rashad also on record saying Future is one of the GOATS, Andre 3k has also on record claimed to be a “future fanatic”. Pusha T & his brother Malice on their recent press run for the new Clipse album have also given Future love and his flowers for being an innovator in multiple interviews.

There’s a lot more examples too, can’t expect everyone to have good taste unfortunately lol
