Veteran rapper, Reminisce, says that respect in hip-hop is earned through "pure skill," not wealth or streaming numbers. 


The rapper, who believes that a rapper's skills are the primary factor in earning respect in the hip-hop world, cited the battle between Kendrick Lamar and Drake as an example, where Lamar's skills earned him widespread recognition as the winner. 


He noted that despite Drake's commercial success, Lamar's skill set gave him the edge.


Reminisce, whose comments followed the ongoing supremacy battle between Nigerian rappers, Odumodublvck and Blaqbonez, emphasized that in hip-hop, you respect cannot be bought, but rather earned through talent and artistry.
