Machine Gun Kelly stopped by Invasion Radio recently to talk to DJ Green Lantern and Boss Lady about his latest mixtape, Black Flag.
During the interview Kelly expressed some frustration at not getting the recognition he feels he deserves as being of the best spitters out currently.
"I think it's a legitimate fact that Machine Gun Kelly inspired a lot of performers in Hip Hop. As far as how we perform in Hip Hop," Kelly said. "I feel like I'm denied access to even being in the class of Hip Hop. If I'm honestly not considered in the top ten lyricists of right now. You can't tell my fans that there's a better rapper than Machine Gun Kelly. Hands down, there's no way I'm not in the top five [rappers today]. It just makes no sense"
What do you think about Kelly's comments? Is he in your top five list of today's rappers?
