"I don't have a Trap music mindset," said Tip on the Top Billin' with Bill Bellamy podcast. "You can tell that sh*t was written by a 20-year-old ... That's the thing, like, just lookin' at, you know...life is a series of adjustments, and from the time we born to the time we die, we will adjust. Of course, I accept the fact that I have acquired a special set of skills that I no longer get to use ... I get it. I respect it. Now, for me to go out here and continue to force those skills on the marketplace when I know I have no real stage to present these skills on, it's counterproductive."

Do you think more veteran rappers should stay away from rhyming about drug dealing?
