Complex SNEAK DISSES Akademiks..

[@beetlebat]

They got it wrong because HelloYassine wasn’t number one edit: some people can’t understand a joke huh

I wouldn't say #1 but definitely on the top 20 list!

[@lustbubo4638]

Ain't nobody even THOUGHT about Nadeska since Everyday struggle ended 😂

[@nigrumsoul]

She’s only useful for mediating host other than that she boring

[@williefaulker]

Tbf she had a good interview with gucci iirc

[@akeembrown7661]

That’s the same girl?

[@JUNGTAKSHI]

i just think of the migos moment when i look at her “where is our security guard at “ 😂🤣

[@chubbybaby1284]

Nas dropped 4 critically acclaimed albums in two years with Hitboy & won a Grammy during that run it doesn’t get talked about enough….

[@HYextra]

Facts

[@willdavis3951]

Yeah and Tupac was at 6... Nas is dope, but IDGAf. The Tupac disrespect is crazy. I love Nas, but #1? Ok y'all got it

[@SLiMMz_25]

He got a podcast or tv show or something?

[@Demsky83]

6 albums

[@Riqo2Suave]

This felt more like a politically orchestrated popularity contest akin to high school prom queen rather than an official ranking done by a well established journalist platform

Damn I been forgot about Shawn

[@scamculture]

Fantano is reaching a point where hip hop artists take his opinion personally. Drake hitting his DM last year was symbolic.

[@miss_bougie6653]

That just has to do with his reach and platform because the gp mostly listen to him

[@KSL215]

@@miss_bougie6653no they don’t ain’t no reall niggas listening to what fantano gotta say

Drake is super sensitive

[@AGentlemansJourney77]

Math Hoffa should have made the list in my opinion.

[@Manuel_Chinaski]

Lol nobody cares about what he has to say .

[@prod.youngsensai]

@@Manuel_Chinaskiwould rather listen to what he has to say than nadeska for sure

[@willdavis3951]

You suck

[@baigmusic]

I agree, Hoffa shud've been on the list

[@kingali3058]

Ak being number 1 and joe being number 2 are no brainers nd should NOT be argued

[@Otherlevel51]

You know if AK talk about this complex list I would never had known about it.

[@Bloodletter_27]

100% yapping 0% news

[@Cuttatv]

Let’s keep it buck , half of these Hip Hop commentators replay their content. I definitely agree some platforms have made moments. But most of these people named are really not hip hop commentators they just glaze a topic if it’s hot.

[@YouTube_Disciple_YTD_Demon]

They definitely should've put DJ FN on there with NORE .. I know that he doesn't say much but when he does say something it's normally always a good question, drop a fun fact or bringing the conversation back to their original start off convo bkuz we all know that NORE will go off into 7 different stories even if the O.G. conversation started off something as simple as Water Ice (which amazingly isn't that known on the West Coast)

[@Mrpersonultra]

Fantano vultures 1 review was definitely a moment

[@germyz]

Yeah, I would have rated it a hard 3

[@astral1427]

How was a album review a “moment” I have a feeling ik what type of guy u r bro

[@Mrpersonultra]

@@astral1427 I mean there were a bunch of videos in response to his review. If you agree with it or not there’s no denying it definitely was a moment

[@astral1427]

@@Mrpersonultra nobody noteworthy responded to that not even anyone on the album acknowledged him

[@m.g7610]

Yassine needs more big videos on his main channel because I could see him on one of these lists

[@KSL215]

He already should be on here

[@willdavis3951]

He's dope but he can't read the room. He thought sexxy red is getting black balled. If anything she is not talented and people are noticing

[@Wiseisdafool]

Most the people are just on it cause they are industry

[@ilyesilyes9485]

Dj akademiks the only thing he knows about hip hop is how much the albums sell

[@collinsobado]

Nfr podcast should be on the list.

[@jackmac919]

Clearly there’s no criteria because they put both personalities and platforms. Should have had a separate list.

[@cingofmem]

“Did Complex Get Their Hip-Hop Power Rankings Wrong?”

[@KSL215]

Technically Kai is a hip hop platform just not the main thing, all these artist go on Kai stream when they about to drop for promo

[@TAZS]

elliot wilson doesn’t belong on that list

[@howarddavis3517]

Fantano don't got no hip hop credibility at all

[@thecoolrich]

No saycheesetv?? SHAWN COTTON?? Wow

[@pinviewapp8908]

Plaqueboy definitely should be on there

[@H3ND000]

Imdontai and even Bruce should be there if kai on here

[@anthonyt425]

Math Hoffa, despite some decline in quality, should’ve been on this list imo.

[@HYextra]

good point

[@spaghettislim7283]

The list obviously sucks because complex sucks and they always have

[@Mallardduckington773]

Jesus Christ Yassine if you actually read the article it tells you right before in the short 4 paragraphs they wrote. 💀💀💀 “We ranked each media personality based on their impact in the space since the release of our inaugural list in 2023.”

[@Mallardduckington773]

“The 2024 Hip-Hop Media Power Ranking reflects the shifts that have resulted as the smoke from the battle has cleared.”

[@Mallardduckington773]

Referring to Kendrick v Drake

[@spenser5001]

no nfr podcast????

[@SweaterSwagg]

Unsung heroes of the rap content game lowkey, just passion for the genre/music with none of the TMZ garbage

[@soleneptune9498]

They had to get you on there bro

I see I'm the first one here take that take that

[@ebonywhite1388]

Shitty list

[@IToldYou2Sit]

lol yassine on this page looking for his recognition. Rather see him on it than the guy who doesn’t ruffle feathers

[@MegaMjjordan]

Where did they rank you though G ? You should be up there 2

[@dogslush]

flabbademiks is in no way #1 he cost complex money with his mouth thats why they fired him, they did the list that way on purpose

[@alejandroramirez-ih7jv]

Raptv should’ve been number 1 Bobbalam should be number 2

[@jaykaydevante]

😂😂😂😂

[@MRzach64]

Only reason nadeska was on there is because they needed a female

[@NisaiahJohnson-oj6xz]

Complex made Ice Spice #50 best NY rapper ever! they list are always trash

[@justhejus]

I mentioned this before and I gotta give you credit for straying away from it but this is a recycled version of aks stream. I love your content and still tune in but I watch ak and then watch some of your vids more last year and before and it’s basically you saying what ak says. No hate and again love your content I’m just saying

[@justhejus]

I appreciate you not saying the same thing as ak about nadeska but he has a reason to have a little bias and you don’t so you were completely honest and opinionated on that point

[@blunttalksmedia]

blunttalksmedia should've been on there

[@robb8246]

Who's that?

[@YourInnerDialogue]

plaqueboymax is an underground guy, he’s not kai cenat level that doesn’t make any sense.

[@Antwannnn]

I've never chosen to watch Ak or Joe

[@Diddykeytothecity]

Should be higher for tlr

[@thecoolrich]

How they forget Adin Ross

[@77_ACE.]

Did you just actually say adin ross? Are you on crack?

[@GbgBaby-io9cp]

That’s what I’m thinking maybe because he’s a brand risk nowadays . I think 2021 Adin would’ve been at the top 5~ of the list

[@GbgBaby-io9cp]

But he had that Carti moment this year tho

[@thecoolrich]

@@GbgBaby-io9cp this year he has 21 and playboy carti, everyone and they moma was talking about it just like how Kai had Nicki and offset etc..

[@Bleedingfollies]

I feel like u can be on here, based on how analytical you are with the content and how u really give a new take on things.

[@comfykeegs]

Kai was in the Uzi vid

[@thetrashcanman7537]

Lmfao NO they didn’t , ngas not even entertaining the concept. They got that sht wrong for a few years when ak wasn’t number 1 too

[@UnfazedLifeTv]

How much did Adam16 oay you to be nr3 on your list 😂 you sound like a real plugtalk fan

[@yungsaxce4591]

[@kelvinthecloud5620]

have an opinion bro say who you would take off we already clicked the video for your opinion me personally i’m taking sway off the list

And replace him with who?

[@castfive4038]

Yo where's bobbalam2?

[@jaykaydevante]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@yourstrulyfocused]

TLR should be WAY higher Adam 22 is clown and if Kai is on there Shay Shay DEF needs to be up there. The 21 Savage and Big Glo interviews were special. Complex is booty anyway lol

[@d-1beats]

I stopped fckn with ak since the start of the year. Too much corny stuff so IDC what role he had in the beef

[@alejandroramirez-ih7jv]

Where is adin Ross

[@mattymatt6970]

I assumed yassine would be on it. Whats going on?

[@anthonyt425]

Yassine isn’t as mainstream (yet).

[@mattymatt6970]

@anthonyt425 ive been watching yassine since like 2016. He was like neck and neck with black speaks. He just did some panel with two other known creators (I don't wanna get them wrong) like a year ago or something.

[@spaghettislim7283]

Also bootleg Kevin’s interviews are terrible HES such a square

[@GoliathSaint]

I liked the other title better

[@Beaut1fullyAwkward]

Id put you in my top 10 your takes don't bother me you don't have a annoying voice and got good taste on what and what not to cover but as far as number one ima give it to Joe Budden no one cares bout rap/hip hop like him sure he can come off kind of mean or unfriendly but if you take the time to listen to the man he be spitting facts and genuinely does care the new gen hate him but if they take that old head mentality out they brain that dude gives out great insight considering he was in the game before

[@FleshWolf]

Shit list

[@jonathanmikarui8931]

You asking what AK's case has to do with this list is very sus, got me wondering wtf skeletons you got in your closet

[@AnthonyCheeseborough]

This is some of the most retarded shit I've read

[@fredlarbi]

😂😂naa you braindead, the list is about their work not about their cases

[@Riqo2Suave]

Did they bring up Adam 22 statutory allegations? Or Charlemagne drugging and SA minors? What about Joe Budden’s DV cases? It’s a very valid question why they’d mention that singling out one person that used to work w them on a conversation surrounding music

[@FleshWolf]

Smooth brain

[@makabongwengcobo6792]

It really isn’t sus. Separating art from the artist is key.
