According to B. Dot, Playboi Carti "sucks."

Earlier this week, Complex unveiled its list of the 50 best Atlanta rappers of all time. As expected, the list has since sparked quite a debate among social media users, who have differing opinions on who deserved to make the cut and how they should have been ranked. Playboi Carti, for instance, came in at No. 12. This put him ahead of artists like Jermaine Dupri, Killer Mike, Gunna, and more.

This didn't sit right with some, including B. Dot. He weighed in on the list on Way Up With Angela Yee recently, making it abundantly clear that he's not a fan. "I can't get jiggy with that," he began. "Have you ever heard Playboi Carti's music? He raps in like Batman sound effects. He sucks. He's terrible."

Clearly, B. Dot wasn't holding back in the slightest, though it looks like he's not alone in his beliefs. Kurrco shared a clip of the rant on X today, prompting social media users to share their own takes on Playboi Carti's ranking. Many agree with B. Dot's comments, arguing that he was placed far too high on the list. Fortunately for the rapper, there are also plenty of fans coming to his defense in the replies, claiming that his influence is undeniable despite his music not being for everyone.

While it's safe to say that B. Dot isn't looking forward to hearing anything new from Playboi Carti, the performer's fans have been hoping for his new album for months. An official release date for the project has not yet been revealed, though a previously unheard track featuring his phone call with Adin Ross surfaced online earlier this week. What do you think of Complex's list of the 50 best Atlanta rappers of all time? What about B. Dot's reaction to Playboi Carti coming in at No. 12?
