Shhtttt don't ask, the YC president never held a real job but that doesn't stop him from talking like he knows everything from astrophysics to socioeconomic stuff either.
And to be fair to sama, I haven't seen any comments from YC alumni about how he compares himself to a gangster rapper. However, the trend of VCs pontificating on Twitter about topics that they don't have a good grasp on is somewhat irritating. The only person who has truly demonstrated the ability to "go deep" on (multiple) extremely complicated subjects, and successfully put his time/money where his mouth is, is Elon Musk. And even he showed a typical lack of self-awareness in his younger days[0].
