Hes dope for sure. I like how he talks down on all the wack rappers, I don't like who he collabs with though.. Tech n9ne isn't very good imo
Man I was so busy that I didn't catch the news that Lupe is considering quiting the game cause of his "beef" with this lil punk frontin rapper. This sucks. http://rapfix.mtv.com/2012/09/06/lupe-fiasco-retiring-from-rap-chief-keef-beef/
Indeed, very good message in his songs, but ti don't think there is a true King of hip hop right now because hip hop has expanded alot you see alot of wack rappers now a days and people calling Litttle wayne the best it's just sad imo. If I had to say who the most talented rapper ever it would be Biggie, you just don't see rappers like that anymore. Some people disagree but It's cool as long as you don't like little wayne. I used to think Jay Z was the best alive but this last year his raps are too shallow, I think Nas is my favorite alive right now till putting out great music
Noooo! Lupe Fiasco is my favorite rapper in the game right now, he's the realest one out there. **** Chief Keef!!
His best song by far is Dumb It Down, when you listen to it you will be mind blown <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/q1Et1siZhTk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Would not be sad if Lupe quit, he should stop implementin his idiotic, non-logical views on politics in his songs. Fake substance in that regard and hurtin the youth, same with Kendrick.
I do not care if this guy is from Houston or not. This guy is messing up the rap game.... Someone told me he is a lot like Kreayshawn (as in not a serious rapper, jokingly rapping) but I feel like this guy takes his lyrics to heart and really does believe his rap.
I do and been following him since the first album, but he took hard shots at Obama in the last one, had terrible interviews, also got set up pretty hard on one Politics Show where it was evident he doesn't know anything about politics and didn't know some of the biggest. He should really stop involving politics in his music, even if it's just on a few songs. His thoughts on the topic are dumb, non factual and pollute his fans.
I like Lupe but his pseudo-intellectual crap is pissing me. "b**** Bad" is sooo bad. I'm on the Kendrick Lamar train. He can be both hard Compton street thug or social commentator without coming off ham-fisted. Section.80 is the best hip-hop album released in the last 2 years. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/foLck1wV_KU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/m9u0DkoBPlM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
To each their own. I personally like Lupe, even if some people don't agree with his lyrics or meanings of lyrics, at least he is putting something "meaningful" out that matters instead of artists like 2 chainz, wayne, drake, kanye who talk about the same old thing
I you are free to believe in anything you want to, but i like lupe as a rapper, as long as he doesn't taint hip hop and sell out on his fans like these other guys i'm fine with him and will continue to support him. I doubt many off his actual fans would consider not voting that's called being shallow as a person.
I am a huge lupe fan. His views are his views. If shouldn't effect yours. But he speaks truth in some sense. He has nice lyrics and great flow, doesn't sell out. He is true to who he is and that's good. Food adn liquor was amazing. The Cool was great too. Lasers, I enjoyed a few songs. ”words I never said” was my favorite. I will be mad if he quits. Hopsin is not the best in game. Biggie is not the best ever but he is in the top 5. Right now, I'm waiting for Jay Electronica to drop something, he can really be something if he had the work ethic. And 713, please hop off this thread with those crappy music.
What's the big deal? The song was more about the story of a kid who found himself skateboarding, it doesn't matter how big a skater he is irl. Just enjoy the damn song. And he has very consistently good music, great mixtapes, good meanings behind his songs.
Maybe because O'Reilly kept cutting him off and yelling at him. Lupe had a point, but O'Reilly wouldn't let Lupe talk and you could tell that the interview was edited the **** out of.
