Offset Says Older Artists Should be ‘Kissing Feet’ Because Younger Artists Helped Hip Hop Become Mainstream

While Offset was making his rounds promoting his solo album, Father of 4, he stopped by Hot 97’s E Bro in the Morning and made a comment that may rub veteran rappers the wrong way.

The Migos rapper discussed the backlash new artists get from the seasoned ones. Although beat production heavily carries a song filled with drug-using misogynistic lyrics now a days, Hip Hop dethroned Rock as the number 1 genre in the country.

According to the “Clout” rapper instead of hating on the young rappers, the older artists should be “kissing feet” for their contribution to mainstream Hip Hop.

“If you’re an older artist, you should be thanking us, kissing our feet. Not just the Migos… Hip-hop has never been the No. 1 genre ever. Right now when you go to Spotify, you’re not seeing the other genres [like] pop, country.”

He added, “Because of how streams is, people are listening to hip-hop more than any other time. So you should salute us, we made this bigger than it ever was. You fought for it, you set the tone, your style is just different.”

Apparently Lupe Fiasco caught wind of Offset’s comments and he sounded off on Instagram. “The metrics of industry don’t successfully define the essence of hip-hop nor do they replace its legacy or the efforts of its pioneers who achieved great things with little to nothing in terms of materials (i.e. the internet and massive marketing budgets) and from that poverty of capital created a Culture, not a business, a legitimate Culture and were actively combatted by opposing forces from all walks of life.”

What are your thoughts? Check out the full interview above.

The disconnect…The Reconnect. Firstly let me say that I’m a huge fan of the Migos (specifically Emitt Smith & Fight Night. Also when I go to the club I only really get up and dance dance my little dance to Migos. True story) Secondly let me say that the only visceral problem with brother offsets statement is the use of the cliche “kissing feet”. That’s not a sign of respect that’s an act of subjugation of something lower to something higher and as Busta Rhymes told me when it comes to rap there are no classes, or superiors vs inferiors. We are all a team. Each with individual attributes that add their special skill set and energy to the whole. The metrics of industry don’t successfully define the essence of hiphop nor do they replace its legacy or the efforts of its pioneers who achieved great things with little to nothing in terms of materials (i.e. the internet and massive marketing budgets) and from that poverty of capital created a Culture, not a business, a legitimate Culture and were actively combatted by opposing forces from all walks of life. Streaming and selling records is only a part of the project that is hip hop. It’s a great feeling and milestone to sell a million records and be celebrated for that achievement. But it is just as great to be an amazing lyricist respected by thousands or just 1 for your abilities to craft amazing pieces of communication that can operate to influence society as a whole not just exclusively on a dance floor. Hip hop got its RESPECT from rappers who spoke truth to power and struck fear in the comfort zones of oppression and inspired folks to take a look at their surroundings, analyze and OVERCOME. Hip Hop isn’t respected because of how many records it has sold or how many dances it has created UNLESS WE TALM BOUT BREAKDANCING. Hip Hop is respected because it’s kisses nobodies feet. And never will. Our feet don’t belong on the mouths of our pioneers they belong on their shoulders. . . . The true rapper is the one who continues to do it when it’s no money, no fame, no cars, no jewelry…just the love of the craft that keeps them on that grind. That’s the bar. Everything else other than that is just filler and cap.

Offset Says 6ix9ine Turned His Back On The Streets: “You’re A Grown Man At The End Of The Day”

Offset

Atlanta rapper Offset is having a tough time feeling sympathy for Tekashi 6ix9ine. The hip-hop star has weighed-in on the jailed rap artist working with prosecutors in his felony racketeering case.

In a new interview, Off said Tek’s decision to turn his back on the streets could ultimately hurt him.

“My OGs tell me, ‘You get in that water, you better know how to swim.’ You a grown man, at the end of the day, you’re a grown man. Grown man make grown man decisions – you choose the streets and you go left on the streets, your safety is a problem now because you chose the streets – I don’t believe in that. I’ve been arrested a lot of times, 13 or something like that, and you take responsibility. Just like my album, I’m saying it, you gotta take it in the chest.” (Real 92.3)

#Offset speaks on #Tekashi69

A post shared by Big Boy's Neighborhood (@bigboysneighborhood) on

Last month, rapper Meek Mill explained why he couldn’t support Tek anymore.

According to reports, 6ix9ine will likely avoid having to face the minimum of 47 years in prison by cooperating with prosecutors.

The U.S. Attorney in the Southern District of New York agreed “not to prosecute [69] for the crimes set forth in Counts One through Nine.” So, various crimes are off the books. In addition, prosecutors agreed not to go after 69 for crimes he told prosecutors about but have not yet been charged. The plea deal also says, “It is understood that the defendant’s cooperation is likely to reveal the activities of individuals and that witness protection may be required at a later date.” It’s unclear how much time prosecutors will ask for, but it appears the number of years may be in the teens … maybe even less. (TMZ)

Days prior, West Coast rap manager Wack 100 and rapper Boosie BadAzz shared their issues with Tek allegedly spilling his guts to get out of jail.
