Lets just call it what it is.. People are in this buisness for different reasons. IF you truly respect the craft/Art form as A Mc you can't take pride with admitting something like this...
Homie most likely chasing the fame, and the bread not trying to be tooken serious as A rapper.. He's a Entertainer..
In a different era n1ggas use to grow up and look at hiphop as a sport.. Live an breath it, Perfect there own style.. Striving to be one of the best to ever do it. Different times were living in.. He not out here calling himself one of the best doing it, or out here doing so, so It's hard to knock him personally..
For the younger cats tho.. When you see older heads, or passionate hiphop fans Put Certain artists on a pedestal these are the type of things we take in consideration. It's no hate for alot of us, we just judge on a different scale.
