"There's great hip-hop being made."
"I don't think there's a lyricist making an impact, or impacting the culture as much as like Rakim did when he dropped."
"But I think there's a lot of lyrical dudes, that's doing a lot of lyrical shit that's very impressive."
"There's always going to be good music from every era."
"It's just right now commercially, all the biggest commercial artists, cause there's so much marketing money put into it, most of the commercial artists aren't the better artists."
"I don't think Kendrick is a top 5 lyricist. I don't think he is. I think he is a top 5 lyricist in the commercial market. I think Kendrick is a very good lyricist, but I believe that the reason he's so respected is because he has the Interscope machine behind him, and when you're actually marketing real lyricists, it's refreshing to hear a real lyricist, then they put you on the top. In my opinion I think there's a lot of rappers that can slice up Kendrick. I don't think Kendrick is the best."
"There's refreshing records in the mainstream."
"I'm not saying mainstream commercial artists aren't good either. I'm not one of them dudes either."
"I think lyrically, commercialized radio will try to dumb down the culture."
