21 Savage is now facing the wrath of actor and comedian Michael Rapaport for his Nas “isn’t irrelevant” statements made during a recent Clubhouse conversation.
The comedian shared his thoughts on the whole situation on his I Am Rapaport: Stereo Podcast YouTube channel on Wednesday (November 16) and dissed the Atlanta native for questioning Nas’s relevancy in Hip Hop.
According to Rapaport, 21’s comments make sense when he’s a rapper with a style straight out of Dr. Suess’s Cat in the Hat book and nowhere near the level of the Queens legend.
“Nas is not relevant,” Rapaport said to start his rant. “It shows in your work 21 Savage, and I’m glad your making money, I’m glad you’re able to take care of everybody, but it’s so disrespectful.”
He continued: “I gotta be the one to say how dare you to say that Nas isn’t relevant. And we see why you would think Nas is irrelevant, 21 Savage, because when we listen to your music, it shows that you’re not a big Nas fan. You probably ain’t a Big Daddy Kane fan, an LL COOL J fan, a Beastie Boy fan, a Gang Starr fan.
“You probably ain’t a fan of any of them, and I hear it in your work. You’re like Cat in the Hat. That’s the kind of rapper you are. Cat in the Hat jumped over the bat and he flipped and he flapped yippity yap.”

Rapaport’s comments come after Fivio Foreign also chimed in on 21’s controversial comments. TMZ caught up with the B.I.B.L.E. rapper where he said Nas has earned the right to do whatever he wants.
“That n-gga Nas did too much to be disrespected like that,” Fivio said. “That’s big bro where I’m from you know what I’m saying. I was just on his album. He just got a Grammy for the album I just was on.”
He continued speaking on Nas never being irrelevant: “Nah, that’s like saying it’s like you a legend you can do what you want, you come back when you want, you leave when you want. That’s what it is. He can do what he want.”
Kodak Black had a more aggressive response to 21’s comments and put him on blast for disrespecting Nas while also quoting lyrics from his 2002 song “I Can.”
“Talking about, ‘Oh, Nas irrelevant.’ How the fuck Nas irrelevant, hoe?” Kodak Black asked. “How the fuck Nas ain’t relevant, homie? N-gga smoking dick! Did a fucking Drake [album]. We salute Drake, we love Drake, okay, whatever.
“Nas that n-gga, homie. ‘I know I can (I know I can)/ Be what I wanna be (Be what I wanna be)/ If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it)/ I’ll be where I wanna be.’ You crazy, boy! The fuck? Nas that boy. Homie, you tripping. Nas that n-gga, boy, you tripping, boy. The fuck?”
Just a reminder that Kings disease 3 will sell maybe 20k this week compared to the 400k 21 savage sold last week. Nas couldn’t even sell 400k back in the 90s when he was chasing pop success.
Aight bro, we get it, Nas jacked your bitch. Move the fuck on.
LOL her losses only sold as much as it did cause of Drake, lets just be honest. That’s not a flex, either.
Her loss sold more than honestly nevermind. 21 Savage had a big part in this too with his latest albums being huge hits in their own right. They weren’t struggling to go top 10 like nas’s std’s 3 will be
Hold this L for thinking Nas gives a single shit about having top 10.
Didn’t KD2 make like the top 3 of the billboard 200? I don’t think you even know what you’re talking about my guy.
21 Savage is definitely someone who has longevity written all over him lmfao, get real.
You a fan, a phony, a fake, a pussy, a stan…
Kd2 sold less than 60k. Her loss sold 400k. Even jay z’s 2017 album sold at least 250k. Nas still losing
You a bit of a thick-skulled mf ain’t ya?
SALES NUMBERS DO NOT EQUAL LONGEVITY
Jay-z is literally one of the biggest rappers in the world lmfao, of course he’s gonna do more numbers than Nas.
Keep drinking that copium
Trolls are gonna troll. Are you arguing charting spots or sales??? 🤔 Those are 2 different things. Then you pick and choose which KD album to reference. Reference the one that won a Grammy but then that’ll run counter to your argument. Whichever one you are making. I love Drake and Nas but make your trolling make sense…🤷🏿
He’s still far outstripping nas who can’t even get a top 10 album these days
You’ve taking 5 L’s in this thread alone. I’ll give the young crowd this, they’ll eat up more doodoo just so they can spit out more doodoo
Nas is almost 50 and made. Lol what the fuck atop 10 album do for a guy like that. Made men lay low in the cut. If someone wants the shine go get the shine.
You bout the dumbest mf talking bout nas never had those numbers u don’t kno hip-hop an it’s fucking sad lmao nas did those numbers wit out riding drake dixk an wasn’t no one playing no 21 before her loss like that.
Nas has had better first week numbers than her loss —- whose numbers come from drake btw
Nas has always been about knowledge more than record sales
Noone gives a fuck what this white piece of shit thinks.
Yet you’re upset enough to be racist for no good reason. Funny how projection works.
Dumb #ss racist comment, he knows more about hip hop then you ever will
i’m sorry who are you? Go hop on your little numark toy, how am I the racist? You have no idea what I know. Go push your buttons.
Yoooo… Go suck 21 and cat and that hats dicks, bitch. No matter how many Drake and 21 sell they’re still wack as fuck, making trash for trash like you haters.
21 was dead wrong but it doesn’t change the fact Rappaport is a total loser
Nas is relavent.. now with that out the way. 80s rappers were cat in a hat rappers too, be real now. Run DMC were cat in the hat, I’m the king of rock, there is none higher. Sucker MCs should call me sire. Now i love Run DMC but come on. rap changes man.

Nas has been around forever. 21 should better shut up and build his career cos stats aside he can never be as relevant as Nas is.
