Lupe responds to a request for a "Jay Electronica vs Lupe Fiasco Battle" on OkayPlayer
Someone wants to make Lupe and Jay Electronica battle each other...and... Lupe replied to it on the OKPlayer boards:
"Coexist,
the devils in the dealer, the poltergeist is in the pokerchips,
Game changer, I practice Iron Swan Song, Tiger Palm & Cobra Fist,
Go by many slang name's and sobriquets,
Asking me how many lines is in my mind
is like asking how many fish can the ocean fit,
I set out to do the impossible like an open fist,
Achieve the unbelievable like throwing Open Pit,
The last line refers to flying saucers,
A rhyming Chaucer who came from District 9 but now he's flying over it,
Battle Jay Elect? Who has the foolhardy audacity to utter this?
I look at him like a high minded brother from another and when we finally encounter with dual flows overdosed on over-the-counter's its gone be like Mulder meets the Mothership,
Friend Of The People, Fuck the government..."

Yeah, I actually don't want to hear them battle each other...I want to hear them together on a track...Collaboration>>Battle - Thoughts?

1st word...coexist.
ReplyDeleteimagine if it was lupe vs iron solomon
that would be awesome
that was sick.
ReplyDeletebut yeah, why battle when a collabo would be better
a collabo would be fucking great....both r grat lyricist
ReplyDeleteWhy not both?
ReplyDeleteThis would be epic.
whoa buddy
ReplyDelete^^lmao wtf @anonymous. someone's PMSing. but yea, I'd rather see a collab. on the other hand, i wouldn't mind a battle either...imagine the wordplay/lyricism and who know what else if these guys clashed (in a collab OR battle)!!
ReplyDeleteDam, I had to break out the dictionary to look up some of these definitions... and I hope Kanye let me finish ... but is Lupe getting at Jay or just send friendly competition?
ReplyDeleteI wanna hear this in audio on Friend of the People. Thanks Okayplayer guy.
this would be a much better collabo, it would set the hip hop world on fire. Bt if they did battle it would give them both huge publicity, idk id go with lupe to me he's more lyrical, bt jay elec's flow is just sumthing of another world!!!!
ReplyDeletei initially thought this was a lame ass move, before after going over it. im like, hmmm just another thing lupe has done that if done by any other rapper it would be seen as a smh kind of thing..
ReplyDeletebut
LUPE ALL DAY!!!
its weird i just start listenin to jay elect last night so i get in the mode so i can write a verse for his exhibit a instrumental and im huge lupe fan what a coincidence
ReplyDeleteor maybe its a sign i hope so-LaSean

ReplyDeleteLupe, end this mans career please.
ReplyDelete@anon that said "Lupe, end this mans career please" stop hating on jay elec and stop tryna start beef if you read and understand what lupe said then you see that lupe is not tryna battle him so please stfu and lupe cant end a career especially if the person dont have one hater
