Rich The Kid is accusing Elliott Wilson of hating.

Rich The Kid has responded to Elliott Wilson calling him the “luckiest n***a on the planet.” Taking to Twitter on Monday, he remarked that hating “isn’t cool.” It appears that Wilson was referring to Rich’s appearance on Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s new album, Vultures 1. He contributed to the song, "Carnival," alongside Playboi Carti.

“How the fuck I’m lucky? N****s made that song from scratch.. hating is not cool bro,” Rich said in response to Wilson. The back and forth warranted mixed responses from fans. “Because you’ve been washed for like 6 years straight and happned to fetaure on a song w 3 generational rappers , have some self awareness bruh,” one user replied. Another defended Rich: “bro rich the kid deadass shaped that track into what it is. that whole choir part wasn’t there till he did his verse. the choir is literally singing the lines rich the kid put down LMAO. he went off.”
