Wale Ignores Trending Meme Implying That He’s Not One Of The Greats
Wale Makes The Best Of His Name Trending With Meme Implying He’s Not On The Same Level As Drake, Kendrick Lamar, J Cole & Travis Scott
Wale considers himself as one of the greatest rappers of all time although he’s not getting the props he deserves. He took to twitter sometimes last year, declaring that he owns a spot on the list.
“I’m one of the greatest rappers of all time . There I said it..,” he tweeted in reaction to a list of the greatest rappers of all time that went viral last year.
Wale Folarin realized that his name was trending on Twitter this weekend, but he’s choosing to ignore it and take the opportunity to plug his music instead, making the best out of the trend.
I’m one of the greatest rappers of all time . There I said it…

On Friday, a meme began circulating that uses a clip from ‘Family Guy’ showing four characters hands in a stack. These comic hands depict Drake, Kendrick Lamar, J Cole, and Travis Scott to seemingly declare that these are the top four rappers in the game right now.
But what appears to be a wooden hand, which has the name “Wale” on it, then attempts to enter the circle, but is rejected as Peter Griffin says, “No, no, no, not you.”

The tweet sparked a heated debate among folks online, many were mad Wale could be so disrespected while others think they meme is correct. Wale caught up with his trending name and didn’t hesitate to use it to promote his project.
“Seen my name trending,” he tweeted, “but the way my anxiety set up I’m not clicking that joint. But go stream “wow that’s crazy” . And watch “Sue me” video . Wash hands and have a good day.”

While he didn’t directly respond to the comparisons, fans were not satisfied with Travis Scott being in among the greats while Wale isn’t allowed. Both fans of the artists then started a debate of who’s better between Travis and Folarin.
