He might be a street legend but when it comes to the RAP game he falls below the likes of 2pac, Nas, Rakim, Violent J, DJ Paul, Juicy j, Snoop, Jay z, Kurupt etc.

From someone whose been a Gucci fan since 2004, I would say he's an ATL rap legend because I haven't seen anyone more influential than him in the past decade. Classic mix tapes, classic fukkery, and a work ethic like no other.

As far as rap overall though, fukk no he ain't a legend....granted he stays in his lane and does it very well, but he hasn't dropped a defining album such as Trap Muzik, TM101, Deeper Than Rap, etc. If he can somehow drop that one defining album I think he can be considered a true rap legend but until then, I can't say that he is

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Legend but not a rap legend

 

[malbaker86]

Yes he is.
