Being acknowledge for what you have done for a genre is different from "media exposure". Anybody can get media exposure for doing anything. I just think when they do different segments discussing hip hop that he can be mentioned as one of the pioneers or when they do different tributes discussing pioneers that helped changed hip hop he should be mentioned. When these urban magazines or music magazines do their commentary they could cite him more.

Frankie Beverly and Maze won a Lifetime Achievement Award 2 years ago on BET but it doesn't necessarily mean their musical influence is not underrated.
