Paul didn’t name any names but, as you know, there have been PLENTY of artists whose songs have piggybacked off Three 6 Mafia family beats — Rae Sremmurd‘s “Powerglide,” J. Cole‘s “No Role Modelz,” Cardi B‘s “Bickenhead” and G-Eazy‘s “No Limit” … just to name a few.

The Memphis rapper doesn’t mince words … he says this is the worst state hip-hop’s been in since he can remember. But, check it out … he does tip his hat to 1 particular rapper.
