Emtee went on and stated that he is not complaining about the spot he got on the list since. This came out after one of the tweeps stated that doesn’t have to complain since he did not drop any music of his own rather he has been more active in doing collaborations. “I ain’t mad. 7 is a lucky number. Yall gotta chill,” tweeted Emtee.
