Future wants some respect put on his name for giving young rappers a style to run with and a way to make a living, and he’s got a point … so says a fellow Atlanta rap legend.
We got Big Gipp — who’s part of Goodie Mob, Dungeon Family and other OG rap groups out of ATL — and he says Future’s recent Twitter rant calling on up-and-coming MCs to thank him for pioneering their styles and ad libs is more than just warranted … it’s overdue.
Enough of these lil niggas running round like I ain’t make y’all 🙄

Gipp does mention a few rap acts by name — calling out Migos and Lil Baby — but it’s unclear who exactly Future was referring to during his extended gripe.
One thing’s for sure though … Gipp thinks Future is right up there with Gucci Mane (often credited with creating trap music) and should be given the same type of reverence.
