Would You Say Lupe Is A Part Of Hipster Hop/Rap?

Hipster Hop, Renaissance Rap.
However you call it...

I don't really care about those categories and
I don't like to put a certain label on artists.

But what do you think?
Would you put Lupe in this category?

I would rather say that Lupe and Kanye helped those acts
to be able to get in the game,
like it was mentioned in an allhiphop.com article I posted before.

From “gangster rap” to “conscious rap” to “ringtone rap,” the hip-hop industry has always had a predilection for labeling itself, especially when a new trend, sound, or look reaches the surface. Sure, some categorization is necessary (specifically when making a regional or periodic distinction), but some are just absurd: “backpack rap”, “trance-hop”, and other sorry tags are segmenting what are essentially different manifestations of the same art. Hip-hop media has taken it too far with their latest moniker: “hipster rap,” which tries to describe the sounds coming from the underground and progressive street culture.

While it may be difficult to pinpoint what “hipster rap” exactly is and to whom it refers (no hipster by nature would refer to being one), one thing is for sure: the experimentation and genre bending emerging from these artists are refreshing and reminiscent of a time when hip hop was all about style, swagger, and enjoying life.
