That made me think about people who dissed rap :

Bill Maher on Arsenio Hall saying that kids invented rock'n'roll because
they didn't know how to sing well. Rap was invented because they didn't
know how to sing at all. Apparently, Biz Markie who was there dissed Bill
during the commercial.

Gil Scott-Heron in a Source interview saying that hip-hop artists should
learn how to play instruments. Maybye he wasn't sampled a lot so he ain't
gettin' phat checks...

There is many others...
