Fossil Rawk The thing about conversing with me is there are predetermined factors that contribute to the extra-perceptional qualities of what I say, you know? It's like I'm not talking about myself, I'm talking about Henry Wordsworth Longfellow in a sort of existential sort of way, but not in a way that would make me seem pretentious, that's not my intention, not at all. xd lol |

Fossil Rawk xXKing ShadowXx Fossil Rawk the-sum Razzo24 So y'mean in addition to bein a mediocre rapper and a whiney prep-a** n***a, he's also a hypocrite. surprised Not somethin I'd be proud of... If he is medicore I would love to know who is good........ LMAO Lupe is the wanna be smart dude's Soulja Boy. Stupid kids who WANT to be smart listen to Lupe. And pretentious a** niggas who WANT to be e-intellectuals diss Lupe. talk2hand There is no career in d**k riding. You've never heard of prostitution... And besides, giving a dude his credit isn't d**k riding. |

SK Koopa I guess I missed important news about Lupe... |

Fossil Rawk xXKing ShadowXx You've never heard of prostitution... And besides, giving a dude his credit isn't d**k riding. Credit for what? Impressing a bunch of dumb kids? Whatever n***a, call it what you will. He brings fresh material consistently and diversifies himself pretty well. If I'm dumb for noticing that, then ignorance is bliss. |

I want you to find me THREE songs off of his LAST album that are DRASTICALLY different from one another, transcribe the lyrics and tell me what he's saying that is diverse and "fresh". And don't call me n***a, n***a. |

I want you to find me THREE songs off of his LAST album that are DRASTICALLY different from one another, transcribe the lyrics and tell me what he's saying that is diverse and "fresh". And don't call me n***a, n***a. Steets on Fire: Lyrics depict the epidemic of irrational actions, the scurge it has upon the streets and the feedback it gets form the people. Its like the story of a literary concrete temptation, its journey, the blame it gets, and the cause and effect through the peoples eyes. Beat ain't bad and Matthew's had worse vocals. Dumb it down: Title pretty much explains itself if you're familiar with Lupe's stuff. By giving depictions and metaphors of the body, soul, and psyche, he shows how he's not going to dumb down his lyrics and content because some niggas are too dumb to get it. The Die: Slightly darker, with much more vivid storytelling without the narrative sense. Basically breaks down how no matter how big of a OG or whatever the hell you wanna pose as, or may even genuinely be, it won't matter when your time is up, and all ya cool and swag ain't worth s**t then. DRASTICALLY different, no, but its better than 13 tracks of masagony(sp) and noise or 16 of THE EXACT SAME MESSAGE or bitchin about how bad rap is in and how much you can do it better. Is the n***a perfect? No, but he's giving me options. All I'm saying man. |

You know, it's funny, because all three of those songs are Lupe taking shots at the industry that pays him as he tries to further separate himself from our culture. They're all saying the same thing "ur rap is bad mine is gud" when... in reality... all Lupe is is a pop star. With horribly vague lyrics that could be interpreted like a Nostradamus prophecy.
You didn't give me a DEFINITE answer on what he's saying. You gave me descriptions about as vague as the lyrics you're describing. And, yes, I know the songs, and yes, I've heard them all, and yes, I think they're horrible, and yes I think I can do better. |

Look at this long winded bs... |

i like lupe his lisp is kinda sexy... i dunno his music has a good tune to it, call it what you will its r8 good though smile ill listen to him over stuff like graduation any day, that album was really disappointing for me considering i also liked kanye on college droupout a lot, but one thing since is right about is people who take shots at the industry that pays them, that is stupid.... but honestly its a good way to make money and sometimes can be some of the most entertaining rap ever. can i use an example, yes i can.... "sean's a rapper but rapping is lame, i quit" entertaining as ******** track
like i said elsewhere, hypocrisy is a small price to pay for music i like, if i based my taste in music off my personal beliefs, i would only have like 100 rap songs in my library |

The problem is his whole career is based around it, and personally I wouldn't listen to either of those albums. Or Common's last joint either. In terms of Chicago, I would rather listen to Blue Collar as long as we're talking semi-recent albums.

Their not straight up shots at the industry just because thier overall message contradicts the mainstream norm. He is making targets, that I won't deny, but its more towards the morals of the s**t going on now than too the check-holders. You're right,. Lupe can be vague. He leaves interpretations relatively open, the reason I can't give definite answers. The point being foreshadowed is mostly all you can get cuz POV is one hell of a variable. Like I said, I just like the options the dudes gives my when it comes to my taste. If you don't like it it, thats you. Just don't sound like a pretentious ******** when you say so. |
