Ryan Garcia throws epic shade at 21 Savage for his epic walkout with Devin Haney!
21 Savage, the British-born rapper, found himself in the midst of drama when boxer Ryan Garcia took a jab at him for walking Devin Haney out before their fight. Garcia took to social media to subtly shade 21 Savage, implying that the rapper wasn’t as savage as his name suggests.
However, the boxing drama aside, 21 Savage has been making positive headlines lately. He recently became the only rapper to be featured on this year’s TIME 100 Most Influential People list. Burna Boy, another artist on the list, praised 21 Savage for his authenticity and ability to connect with listeners through his music.
TIME’s blurb for 21 Savage highlighted his grounded nature, ability to navigate complex subjects in his music, and his overall impact on the genre. Burna Boy also shared his excitement for the evolution of 21 Savage’s artistry and the continued impact he will have on the world stage.
Despite the recognition from TIME, radio personality Charlamagne Tha God recently hailed another artist as the most influential rapper of the last decade. During an episode of the Brilliant Idiots podcast, Charlamagne Tha God praised Future for his lasting impact and influence on music culture over the past ten years.
Charlamagne argued that Future, known for his unique style and sound, has influenced countless artists worldwide and shaped the direction of hip-hop music in significant ways. While discussions surrounding influential rappers often focus on names like Kendrick Lamar, Drake, and J. Cole, Charlamagne made a case for Future’s undeniable influence on the industry.
