Terrible analogy because people acknowledged Funky Four Plus One as rappers.

People paid lip service to Africa Bambaataa and his music because of how influential it was. Nobody was talking about he's a rapper though. The original beef I had was people are deflecting criticisms of these "gay" (who knows really?) rappers by attacking Bambaataa....who ain't a rapper. We can split hairs all day about what kind of music he made, but he ain't no fukking rapper like Young Thug or Lil Uzi Vert.

Baam was a rapper...just because he wasn't good as Caz or Melle Mel doesn't change what he was:francis:

ATL changed everything. They've had a strong hold on the game slowly and surely influencing it and making it their own since 2006 when Crank Dat dropped and took the world
