However, Wilson is not the only person who has been commenting on hip-hop Mount Rushmores. Gucci Mane has proclaimed that he "belongs on the Mount Rushmore of anything" after being left off a now-viral meme. The original meme listed Future, 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, and Jeezy as its "Mount Rushmore of Mixtapes". “I definitely belong there on the Mount Rushmore of anything. That’s just my opinion, but I’m biased. I’m not blind, you know. I’ve got different criteria that what I judge than what, probably, you judge. Or somebody else might judge. Or the popular opinion might judge," Gucci told the Rap Radar podcast.
The post, made last month, has sparked a lot of debate in the music community. To Gucci's credit, a lot of the replies were lamenting his exclusion from the list. Other frequently mentioned names included Wiz Khalifa, Jadakiss, and Lil B. Who would appear on your "Mixtape Mount Rushmore"? Let us know in the comments below.
