(AllHipHop News) Vince Staples ruffled some feathers when the Long Beach artist commented about not understanding why 1990’s Hip Hop is credited as the “Golden Era.” Users on Twitter began bashing the 22-year-old rhymer, and Staples answered the criticism with his own tweets.
At one point New York emcee N.O.R.E. responded to the growing controversy. The “Superthug” rapper and Staples then had a back-and-forth on the social media platform.
