Dude...
You said Hip hop is still mainly straight male hip hop heads and we are the ones who gatekeep it. Now you are downplaying Uzi, Carti and NBA because they contradict your statement. Naa, it don't work like that. If those 3 are hot items for close to a decade then there obviously was no gatekeeping. Saying only clowns and casuals respect them is doing the "I don't see it so i didn't happen" thing and that's not how it works. Gen Z's goats aren't the same as Gen X's goats.
Also, Future isn't feminim but he is trash and he is one of the top rappers of this current generation and he is respected. Heads didn't gatekeep anything if Future is a top dog. After Kdot, Drake and Nicki, Future is right there and he's been that guy for a decade and a half.
It was gatekept
Mission accomplished -

No one takes them seriously
Hip hop on the whole takes MC Hammer and Nelly more seriously than them …
They sold but they accomplished nothing in the genre
Are you slow or are you really not a hip hop fan and not getting this for real??????
They have no respect
Please @ me when you see them in a major publication or serious site or serious hip hop YouTube channel as best rappers ever
Please @me when their peers mention them as top 5 rappers ever
Even @me when any rapper over 25 mentions them as being good
@me when any rapper not in their camp or in their friend group gives them respect
Gen Z GOATS (who they look to as the best) are maybe Travis Scott, Drake, Nikki, Future. Of course Cole and K Dot. Some had a spark but crashed out like Lil Baby, Denzel Curry, Chance, Vince Staples, Baby Keem, Da Baby etc. …
Future isn’t trash or a weirdo you’re grasping for straws now …
Hip hop doesn’t respect when you’re too weird ….
Or on some white aligned agenda like hating straight Black men
Keep it 100
Don’t make shyt up
