Lil Wayne thinks he should have been named as the greatest rapper of all time
Billboard published its 50 greatest rappers of all time earlier this month - but Lil Wayne reckons the ranking ain't right.
The rapper was rated as the seventh best ever, which is pretty damn good going.
However, Wayne - real name Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. - thinks he should have been top of the pile.
The 40-year-old discussed the list in an interview on Zane Lowe's Apple Music radio show.

"Man, who the hell is before me? Was the list including all hip-hop, like before and after as well?" Wayne asked.
Jay-Z was named as number one, followed by Kendrick Lamar, Nas, 2Pac, Eminem, and The Notorious B.I.G.
"I will tell you that I am a motherf***ing one," said Wayne. "Everybody whose names you named, they also know I'm number one. Go ask 'em. They know what it is."
"The last tour I got off was with Blink-182," he added.
"At the end of the day, I find myself at the country music awards and doing tours with Blink-182. There's not a lot of rappers in this position who can say they've done that. I stand alone on that mountain."
Ice Cube - who was ranked 18th - also hit out at the list.
"I don't f**k with Billboard or the editor," Cube told TMZ. "Billboard ain't hip-hop so their opinion don't matter. So who gives a f**k?
"It's an irrelevant list. It's like a**holes: everybody got one and they all stink."
In his Apple Music interview, Wayne also explained how he keeps in shape, and for him, it's all about diet.
In fact, he can't even remember the last time he had fast food - which is probably quite avoidable when you've had a personal chef for more than two decades.
"When I was 19, I moved to Miami and my mom is a chef and she was very happy for the move because New Orleans is crazy. "One thing she really wanted me to do was get a personal chef," he said.
"So, from the age of 19 to now, I've always had a personal chef. I don't know what McDonald's smell like. I haven't eaten any fast food in forever.
"People always say to me, 'What's your workout? What do you do when you get in the gym?' I be like, 'Only gyms I know is Jim Jones.'
"I can't lift a weight, bro. I don't do no workout or nothing like that."
