I think Lupe buys his beats from soundcloud for $20 and he gets a mail-in rebate!
Beat is horrible, flow is lazy, lyrics are on point as usual with Lu but man he lost his passion. There's no enthusiasm in his music anymore!
This song is horrible! He used to have an amazing mic presence, used to rhyme and flow so dope and make it seem effortless, that Lu has died as of recently, he no longer exists.
Your blind dude get the lyrics, READ them Lupe says in his this he isn't in the game he playing around with it. He is calling Jay Z & Kanye out for being the leaders of the agenda. LISTEN this is music for enjoyment this is secret indictments. Anyone that knows Lupe knows he's an artist. C'mon
Of course the lyrics are on point but like everybody else is saying, it sounds dead, no emotion and his flow is odd and wack beat selection. I know artists evolve throughout their career but come on Lu....
Unbelievable. Could have been delivered better but it was very long and complex. This was better than Holy Grail, Yeezus and all the Control response combined.
I don't even really mind the beat, but the flow is what makes or break the song for me personally. I mean even if you have one of the lamest lyrics, you could change it up with your flow. Okay not a good example, but you understand.
Lyrics + Flow + Beat = What basically makes a truly rap art piece.
Lyrics(S Rank) + Flow(Just meh...) + Beat(B?) = This song's rating for me.
I know it shouldn't be rated, but I'm just a bit underwhelmed.
Lu releases SLR 2 and 3 and his "fans" deem he's returned. They hear this song maybe twice and he's "fallen off" and "not the same". Again. If you don't like the song for whatever reason that's fine. But damn some of y'all can be real fickle.
If you listen to pre-tetsuo Lupe, everything from Light Blue, Poor Decisions, to SLR2&3 and now POP, he's clearly stepped up to a new level. Lupe is always improving, but he's always going to take chances with his music too.
Now now. I believe The Cool will always be Lupe's crowning achievement. It's simply not fair to say he fell off because he hasn't released anything as good (album wise). That album is more than a classic. It's the Odyssey in rap form, bruh. And a totally unique concept that won't be repeated. I honestly believe the game that is the music industry drained him of his spirit . . . but it's evident he's regaining it all back with drop after drop.
He's just practicing testing the waters and putting this out to stay relevant. He could put out nothing or wait when his album drops itll be a mess and sounds unfocused. I'd prefer a mixtape to hold me over but he said hed never put out another mixtape but for real show some appreciation. what if he quits? what will you do then? go find a new lu? yeah right. good luck dipshits. he did this on purpose hes trying to show how jay has fallen off. he isn't really trying
LIKE WTF ARE YOU LISTENING TO???....I UNDRRSTAND THIS IS YOUR OPINION BUT IT SOUNDS A BIT HARSH........HOW IN THE HELL YOURE GONNA LIKE BUT DONT LIKE?....SOUNDS A BIT UNBALANCED TO ME BUD....SMH.....THE FLOW WAS GOOD!.......IT WAS MEANT!. THE BEAT WAS UNFAVORED ONLY BY YOU AND A FEW OTHERS(HATERS) IF YOURE ONE!.......WTH?.....SMH. PEACE!.
OH IM AS CALM AS CALM GETS.....AND HE HAVE IT. AND AS FOR YOU, LET ME HAVE MINES...IMA LEAVE IT AS THAT. I LIKE YOUR APPROACH THO. AND IM NOT ACTING AT ALL.......CLEARLY I DIDNT MAKE THE SONG.......WHY DID YOU FEEL THE URGE TO RESPOND TO SOMETHING I SAID TO SOMEONE ELSE?...........JUS A QUESTION.
The same reason you felt the urge to respond someone who had a different opinion than you. You called the person a "hater" for a having an opinion. You said it was "harsh" too. A grand smh.
NOTHING DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND....AND I SAID "IF YOURE ONE" TO THE PERSON I WAS TALKIN TO......AND BE A LEADER NOT A FOLLOWER!....AND THERE ARE HATERS OUT THERE WHOS LITERALLY HATING ON SHIT, SOME, FOR NO APPARENT REASON! SOME, FOR DUMASS REASONS THAT ISNT LEGIT. NOW THATS DAT SHEET I DNT LIKE(CHEEF KEEF VOICE)....BUT JUST HOW YOU WATCHING ME YOU BEIN WATCHED TOO DOE. LOL SMH AT DAT!....
Who's watching me? Whoa I'm getting famous now. But really you need to use google to understand the definition of hater though. Son you have some growing up to do. (Steve Harvey voice)
LOL......I SEE WHERE YOUR GOING WIT THIS......BUT IM GONNA LET YOU DROWN IN YOUR POOL OF ANGER. ALL IM SAYING IS GET OFF MY BUMPER!....AND WHY DONT YOU GOOGLE HOW TO MIND YOUR DAMN BINESS. OH! THERES 1500 PEOPLE WATCHING YOU SON!.....1500/FNF UP AND OUT!. BISHOP G'S VOICE) SMFH.
I REALLY DONT PLAY GAMES ESPECIALLY THOSE KIND. IM ONE OF BISHOPS BROTHERS!.....IM JUST A TAD BIT MORE TOLLERENT WIT SHIT THAN HE IS. LEAST I THINK SO. BUT I HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR TOO SO ITS ALL GOOD WOADY.
Yes nigga I said it think critically, it don't matter whether you have a college degree or not. Music is part of the arts and part of appreciating art is analyzing it, especially having an opinion. When it comes to Lupe Fiasco you have to listen closely, especially the first few times. He is one of the few in the game that promotes educating oneself and it helps when it comes to his art, his music. Don't dumb it down and be like everybody else to listen once and say its wack period. Say exactly why and people will respect your opinion whether it is wack or not. You say his flow and beat (instrumental) is wack, so you must know what that means. So why is it wack? What is wack to you?
Look nigra it's a matter of taste. His flow sounds weak and unenthusiastic. The beat is sped up recycled garbage. No need for a thesis, that's how I feel. It's art right? We interpret it in our own way right? You suck up the wack juice with a straw....I can't do anything about that baby doll.
Alright nigga I guess you can't back it up your interpretation and taste. You say your a true Lupe Fiasco fan, a lover of this artist, and you too scared to say what you actually feel and why. All the silence is worse than all the violence nigga.
Y I gotstah back up my own opinion foolio?! I...am...not...feeling...the shyt point blank period. The silence is worse that the....shut all the way the hell up boy!! There are two types of lupe fans on this earth....
Is Lu trying to mock Jay Z's Holy Grail like he did in SLR2? I can understand the beat is similar to their version. But, the flow was tame and didn't really "glow" like it did in SLR2/SLR3.
In all honestly I didn't like the way it sounded when I first listened to it, it is a little drawn out. But after revisiting it a few times it has grown on me. It's damn near 7 minutes of straight bars, give the man credit.
SO IN OTHER WORDS, YOU WERE LOST THEN FOUND!.........WHICH IS GOOD!....LETS ME KNOW YOU HAVE A BRAIN AND DONT JUST JUDGE THINGS BEFORE YOU ACTUALLY LISTEN. THERES HOPE!........WISH IT WAS MORE LIKE YA. LOL.
WIT ALL DUE RESPECT TO YOU FAM, WHY WOULD LU HAVE TO MOCK ANY DAMN THING?.....LU'S SUM LIKE A OR THE THRESHOLD IN THE "GAME"...RITE NA. LU HAS ALWAYS APPOINTED AND DISAPPOINTED WITH HIS SPLENDOR!........NOW PEOPLE CAN THINK AND BELIEVE WHATEVA THEY CHOOSE. HES ORIGINAL!........JUST LIKE MY BROTHER AKA HIS FRIEND BISHOP G. BUUUT......YEA. I DNT BELIEVE HES MOCKING SHIT THO.
This song is very mediocre. You guys who are just telling people to hop off should be looking in the mirror. Accept the fact that you idol isn't good anymore. This is very lazy.
If it's not for you then it's not for you. But telling other people what to think/do? Sound like you need to look in the mirror, slick. You're nobody just like all of us. Your opinion is nothing just like all of ours. So chill. You're nothing to any of us. =)
sounds just like what he said he was doing at the end of the song...exercising! and his exercise is better then most rappers best attempts. he's supposedly gonna do a joint with math hoffa and loaded lux...over a justice league beat. and IF he does actually drop it...this rap shit is about to be put in a coffin and mofos will have no choice but to bow down.
Why can't Lupe just get a dope beat!!!? Honestly, he's friends with Soundtrakk (Serious Songs), Pharell (Bangers - Electronic type) and Kanye (Bangers - Soulful type). I love Lupe for real and I hate to join the bandwagon of Lupe fans who bash him but its so frustrating watching 2Chainz/Meek/T.I. make hit after hit when they are no where near his level.
And Im not asking him to go Lasers. Nas has Life is Good and J. Cole has Born Sinner both excellent mainstream albums that aren't considered commercial (No booty shaking or blowing money fast).
Its not about how complicated he can rap! We know he can...Its about him talking about everyday situations either he or we face(d) in an imaginative and witty way.
Lupe's music is not profitable like 2chains or meek mill, they rap about alcohol, drugs, money, sex these a some of the most profitable industries therefore there music will get pushed forward. J.cole bearly had a number 1 single but his fans manage to help with album sales
Yeeeaaaahhh those other guys make CLUB songs. Of course they're more profitable. You think Lupe cares? Honestly. Do you think Lupe even cares how his fans view his newer material? I don't think he does. Clearly the songs he's released recently are more personal than ever (mixtape like?). He's not trying to win people over right now. He's just creating buzz . . . just as he described with his beautiful (hah!) singing at the end of SLR III.
Personally that's why Lu is my favorite artist. He does what he wants (and if he is not allowed he'll let us know). He's a little wacky and out there but . . . he has dignity. Something many rappers lost a long time ago.
I wasn't talking about club songs, and I wasn't talking about profit either. Im talking about making songs that many people can 'feel' and relate to.
Thats why I used Nas and J.Cole as examples. There are other rappers who don't necessarily make club songs and are still loved e.g. Kendrick, Eminem, Pusha T, even a lot of Jay-Zs stuff isnt club music.
Not only beats, Lupe does not (want to) get Jill Scott, Sarah Green, Mary J, Janelle Monae, Chrisette Michele etc on hooks when it worked out great for him initially.
As an artist its great to 'do your own thing' and 'make ur own path,' but if you completely do not listen to any of your fans, then you really don't have any fans. Ur a lone ranger, they loved a guy who was just passing by.
Well . . . honestly those people you named have made a few club songs themselves haha. But I see your point. Regardless this is all a matter of perspective. I like the fact Lu does his own thing. Some people don't. That's what it all boils down to. Lu will always have fans no matter what. Same with other artists . . . I mean Big Sean is still making money.
Liker I said these songs are more personal. He addresses critics and fans alike on these recent drops, while mocking the rap game in general. I think it's brilliant but clearly others don't.
Is it? I heard one grainy YouTube snippet of it. Sounds like more of a techno/electronica song. Yes they play those in clubs but I'm sure we all know what I mean when I say club song.
Oh you mean Stripper club song or Trap song? It's the same thing to me. They're sole purpose is to get radio play. Just to make it interesting, what do you think the song with Nicki and Kid Cudi would have sounded like?
I just want you think about it though. What would that song have sounded like? I think Lupe is going to try and make some club bangers so he can get that Ferrari.
the new single with Chris Brown should make a lot of people happy, Lupe is perfectly capable of stuff like that, this is just for the seriously lyrically inclined.. have faith lol
To be honest I can't think of any rappers that have tried starting beef with Lu. Lyrically anyhow. I know Soulja mentioned him and that's what spawned SLR. Even when Chief Keef tried to diss Lu he got sonned and couldn't even continue with his foolery. Nobody really wants to mess with Lupe like that . . . clearly there's a reason. Either he's well liked or well respected.
LOL HELL YEA...EITHER THEY RESPECT HIM OR THERES SOMEONE ADVISING THEM NOT TO!.....BECAUSE LIKE TO ME YOU CANT EVEN PUT LU IN THE CATEGORY WITH ALOT OF THESE SO CALLED RAPPERS DUDE. HE REPRESENT SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE MENTAL CAPACITY TO RELATE AND UNDERSTAND OR EVEN BEEF OR COMPETE WIT THE GUY. LU CAN BE TOO MUCH TO BOP WIT AT TIMES. KEEPING UP IS A MUST!. WHEEEEW WEE.
OK WELL YEA BUT THAT SLR SHIT HE HAD OBJECTIVES SORTA SPEAK. IM TOMBOUT HIM AS HIS OWN ARTIS....HIS PRIME MISSION ISNT TO MOCK.....HES A CREATOR AND I KNO U KNO THAT YO. BUT YEA WHENEVA HE DOES MOCK HE DOES IT BETTER THAN WHOM HE DOES MOCK. BEATS THEM IN THEIR GAME. LOL THATS WHATS SO FUNNY ABOUT IT.
LOOK CAT.....THERES NIGGAS WHO'LL MauL YOU FOR SPEAKING THAT WAY ABOUT FOLKS!......SMH. STAY ANONYMOUS MY DUDE.....AND A 1500 ISNT BISHOP G EITHER HES HIS LIL BROTHER. SERIOUSLY!.
...or people know he used to be a bad man. "if you find a gram plus, I'd be buffin brass knucks / best listen to your dawgs get Son of Sam'd up"
Also, they probably heard songs like Hater Hop. Whoever he was dissing in there (and I'm sure they know who they are) probably got the message loud and clear and kept quiet.
Lupe has shown he has the potential to be an assassin if he chooses. I know if I were a rapper, him or Eminem would be the last person I would want to start beef with (on a record at least).
LOL....YOUVE BEEN HAVING ME ROLLING DUDE. BUT ANYWAY THE HELL WITH HATERS. IF PEOPLE LIKE FNF THEN ITS ALL GOOD. "THESE BITCHES GON HAVE TO LEAVE" THO. IM NO LONGER ENTERTAINING GETING MAD AND ARGUING WIT THESE......PEOPLE. ALL THE FNF FANS THO...WE LOVE YOU!........THE REAL ONES. LOL.
OH!....HAVE GREAT NEWS!......ALL IN FAVOR OF DAMAGED HOPE....LUPExBISHOP GxDOUGHBOY..GUESS WHAT?.......IT ISNT COMING OUT. ISNT THAT GREAT?.....WOW THOSE GUYS ARE GREAT!.....LOL HAAHAHA!.
Tetsuo and Youth is gonna be dope... Skulls gonna leave me speechless... Lu even tweeted "Skulls is my favorite album" and "Soundtrakk got Skulls sounding like a bouqeut of roses!" :D I feel like this right chere is a statement track tho (love it or hate it) this joint is stirring the pot definitely...
As I read these comments, it really sadens me to see how the few who are supposedly fnf fans down people who are near and dear to lupe!..........like how can you possibly support him alone without supporting what and all what he stands for?........his upbringing, peers, way of thinking and ect...its like people dnt even care about his family and friends. I vivid remember his buddy bishop......its like everyone just tend to forget about him and talks about him when in reality, he's a very talented artist aswell so ive found.......i remember him well, traveled everywhere with lupe!..........and was an artist aswell.......just sad to see fans deface a part of lupes family one of whom he deeply cares for. But you guys like lupe??? Get a grip!.
Yea in so many ways your right....but who cares ya know? Everyone so stuck inside of now that they tend to overlook or forget. But god bless Bishop and his family.
I never understand... Why flock to the blog just to hate and argue with the diehard fans? To feel good about yourself? Parents didn't give you enough attention? Obviously not since you never learned say something nice or say nothing at all. I'm tired of the negativity about every damn track my nigga drops. He's on fire right now and showing the game he's going to stay real to true hiphop. Ignorance is enemy so stay out of the vicinity of...
For real, let the nigga shine and celebrate him. All ya'll have no substance behind your reasoning to start up negativity. Everyone should want to think critically, and that's what Lupe does everyday. You tell'em Laz B!
We are lupe fans, not bishop g fans, i understand he's lupes friend but dosent mean we have to like his music, i'm not hatin just got my own opinion, js
We have all heard little weapon, and just because bishop spits a OK verse dosen't mean he's great, the other song that this blog put up of his,not long ago was terrible in my opinion, anyways this was dope, unique and just lupe! #T&Y
LOOK DUDE......SPEAK FOR YOURSELF AND GUESS WHAT, I LIKE EVERYONE YOU JUST NAMED ALSO!....BUT YOU LEFT OUT A FEW PEOPLE. SMH PEACE!...DO SOME RESEARCH BEFO YOU GO YACKIN AND DOWNING PEOPLE. 1500/FNF UP!.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SIMPLY LISTEN TO THE MUSIC. ALMOST ALL WHO HASNT HEARD BISHOPS MUSIC ARE JUDGING from a"SONG" OR "VERSE"......sad.smh. lupe didnt have to lead me to him. I just follow up on him and were convinced once i did. I support FNF as a group.
Damage revearsal Losers 1 Losers 2 King yodas high damage Brimstone county which is soon to come....which sounds like fire so far! And more ect......check bishops soundcloud. Not asking for money......just time. Smh
A 1500 just face it your brothers shit and can't rap to save himself,you defending him is doing him no justice, your embarrisin yourself, please get off this blog, IT'S CALLED LUPEND, NOT BISHOPEND
to be honest tho just give your opinion of the song fsfs. there waaaay bigger problems on this planet then who's better than who, i am really surprised at the amount of passion people put into it, i mean that brain and time could be used for something positive and worthwhile
cant believe the ppl that have listened to lupe way longer than me doesn't know that he is asking Jay Z to side with him in his fight against the big agenda led by the music industry
Lupe would be ashamed of you. You speak English and "try" communicate in English, but you don't can't type out a coherent sentence. Read a book Nigga. I do mean Nigga literally.
To be honest one minute people want Lu to be lyrical next minute they want sone easy to listen to songs, lasers was a mix of both yet people were still unhappy.
Yessssssssssssssssssssssssss
ReplyDeleteI think Lupe buys his beats from soundcloud for $20 and he gets a mail-in rebate!

ReplyDeleteI'm usually an "optimist" Lu fan.
But, I just can't feel the "energy".
After listening to the Cool, I feel energized,
but after listening to this, I just hear, I can't feel.
Interesting

ReplyDelete"The ghost of my career, better than most of what they revere I take my targets and throw them back at my spear I'm outta here.
That line (and the last couple bars about greatest rappers) really had me thinking...is this his way of retiring?
DeleteI'm sure it's not. But I think it could be interpreted that way.
Good song, but sound too much like mixtape music.
ReplyDeleteLupe sound like he's havin too much fun in the studio. FL1, The Cool, & FL2 sound like he cried after writing every song.
Still the G.O.A.T
What is so bad about "mixtape music?" Care to explain?
DeleteI will pirate his next album if it sound like this song
ReplyDelete^^^Is that you Lupe?
DeleteYour not suppose to pirate Davee, that is not right.
DeleteYes it is I.
DeleteThis is just an exercise ppl he warmin up still fans nowadays are so fickle smh

DeleteI'm not a hater I'm a lover of Lupe. A true fan that isn't afraid to call his flow and this beat a cup of wack juice. And then I keeps it movin.
DeleteHow is his flow and the so called beat a cup of wack juice? You say things and can't even back them up.
DeleteBack up closer to those speakers!
DeleteI have ears a heart and many many years listening to Hip Hop. What more back up does one need?
That's good you have ears, a heart, and whatever. Anyone can say anything, but hardly anyone thinks critically to back up their claim.
DeleteThink critically?... com'on how does it sound? How does it feel? Stop over thinking every little thing this man does jeeeeez
DeleteYes nigga I said it think critically, it don't matter whether you have a college degree or not.

ReplyDeleteIm a Laser fan actually not really it was okay,but the lyricism is what draws me and what draws fans to Lupe.

When it comes to the album I am sure hes gonna use good beats because damn well he doesnt want it to flop like FNL2.

DeleteThis song is very mediocre. You guys who are just telling people to hop off should be looking in the mirror. Accept the fact that you idol isn't good anymore. This is very lazy.
ReplyDeleteIf it's not for you then it's not for you. But telling other people what to think/do? Sound like you need to look in the mirror, slick. You're nobody just like all of us. Your opinion is nothing just like all of ours. So chill. You're nothing to any of us. =)
DeleteIdk, lyric content is supreme.
DeleteBeat is alright.
Flow is eh...
I don't know about mediocre, but it is better than average.
sounds just like what he said he was doing at the end of the song...exercising! and his exercise is better then most rappers best attempts. he's supposedly gonna do a joint with math hoffa and loaded lux...over a justice league beat. and IF he does actually drop it...this rap shit is about to be put in a coffin and mofos will have no choice but to bow down.
DeleteWhy can't Lupe just get a dope beat!!!? Honestly, he's friends with Soundtrakk (Serious Songs), Pharell (Bangers - Electronic type) and Kanye (Bangers - Soulful type). I love Lupe for real and I hate to join the bandwagon of Lupe fans who bash him but its so frustrating watching 2Chainz/Meek/T.I. make hit after hit when they are no where near his level.
ReplyDeleteAnd Im not asking him to go Lasers. Nas has Life is Good and J. Cole has Born Sinner both excellent mainstream albums that aren't considered commercial (No booty shaking or blowing money fast).
Its not about how complicated he can rap! We know he can...Its about him talking about everyday situations either he or we face(d) in an imaginative and witty way.
@thelupendblog PLEASE GET THIS MESSAGE TO LUPE!!
Lupe's music is not profitable like 2chains or meek mill, they rap about alcohol, drugs, money, sex these a some of the most profitable industries therefore there music will get pushed forward. J.cole bearly had a number 1 single but his fans manage to help with album sales
DeleteYeeeaaaahhh those other guys make CLUB songs. Of course they're more profitable. You think Lupe cares? Honestly. Do you think Lupe even cares how his fans view his newer material? I don't think he does. Clearly the songs he's released recently are more personal than ever (mixtape like?). He's not trying to win people over right now. He's just creating buzz . . . just as he described with his beautiful (hah!) singing at the end of SLR III.
DeletePersonally that's why Lu is my favorite artist. He does what he wants (and if he is not allowed he'll let us know). He's a little wacky and out there but . . . he has dignity. Something many rappers lost a long time ago.
I wasn't talking about club songs, and I wasn't talking about profit either. Im talking about making songs that many people can 'feel' and relate to.
DeleteThats why I used Nas and J.Cole as examples. There are other rappers who don't necessarily make club songs and are still loved e.g. Kendrick, Eminem, Pusha T, even a lot of Jay-Zs stuff isnt club music.
Not only beats, Lupe does not (want to) get Jill Scott, Sarah Green, Mary J, Janelle Monae, Chrisette Michele etc on hooks when it worked out great for him initially.
As an artist its great to 'do your own thing' and 'make ur own path,' but if you completely do not listen to any of your fans, then you really don't have any fans. Ur a lone ranger, they loved a guy who was just passing by.
B
Well . . . honestly those people you named have made a few club songs themselves haha. But I see your point. Regardless this is all a matter of perspective. I like the fact Lu does his own thing. Some people don't. That's what it all boils down to. Lu will always have fans no matter what. Same with other artists . . . I mean Big Sean is still making money.
DeleteLiker I said these songs are more personal. He addresses critics and fans alike on these recent drops, while mocking the rap game in general. I think it's brilliant but clearly others don't.
So what do you think "Crack ft Chris Brown" is? That's a completely club record/
DeleteIs it? I heard one grainy YouTube snippet of it. Sounds like more of a techno/electronica song. Yes they play those in clubs but I'm sure we all know what I mean when I say club song.
DeleteOh you mean Stripper club song or Trap song? It's the same thing to me. They're sole purpose is to get radio play. Just to make it interesting, what do you think the song with Nicki and Kid Cudi would have sounded like?
DeleteHorrible. >___<
DeleteI just want you think about it though. What would that song have sounded like? I think Lupe is going to try and make some club bangers so he can get that Ferrari.
DeleteDo you mean another one? He already has more than one.
Deletethe new single with Chris Brown should make a lot of people happy, Lupe is perfectly capable of stuff like that, this is just for the seriously lyrically inclined.. have faith lol
ReplyDeleteTo be honest I can't think of any rappers that have tried starting beef with Lu. Lyrically anyhow. I know Soulja mentioned him and that's what spawned SLR. Even when Chief Keef tried to diss Lu he got sonned and couldn't even continue with his foolery. Nobody really wants to mess with Lupe like that . . . clearly there's a reason. Either he's well liked or well respected.
ReplyDeleteMy money's on both.
LOL HELL YEA...EITHER THEY RESPECT HIM OR THERES SOMEONE ADVISING THEM NOT TO!.....BECAUSE LIKE TO ME YOU CANT EVEN PUT LU IN THE CATEGORY WITH ALOT OF THESE SO CALLED RAPPERS DUDE. HE REPRESENT SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE MENTAL CAPACITY TO RELATE AND UNDERSTAND OR EVEN BEEF OR COMPETE WIT THE GUY. LU CAN BE TOO MUCH TO BOP WIT AT TIMES. KEEPING UP IS A MUST!. WHEEEEW WEE.
ReplyDeleteI really don't like where his flow is going...decent song
ReplyDeleteJust LOL
DeleteYou can't tell me he didn't mock in SLR2. :|
ReplyDeleteOK WELL YEA BUT THAT SLR SHIT HE HAD OBJECTIVES SORTA SPEAK. IM TOMBOUT HIM AS HIS OWN ARTIS....HIS PRIME MISSION ISNT TO MOCK.....HES A CREATOR AND I KNO U KNO THAT YO. BUT YEA WHENEVA HE DOES MOCK HE DOES IT BETTER THAN WHOM HE DOES MOCK. BEATS THEM IN THEIR GAME. LOL THATS WHATS SO FUNNY ABOUT IT.
ReplyDeleteHow many times did you pray to Lupe today?
ReplyDeleteDo you mean "devil's" possessive or "devils" plural?
ReplyDeleteI thought the previous comment was the final comment? So you've seen what the devil looks like? And why are you thinking of homosexual thoughts?
ReplyDeleteFuck Bishop G aka A 1500, fuk yoooooooooouuu
ReplyDeleteLOOK CAT.....THERES NIGGAS WHO'LL MauL YOU FOR SPEAKING THAT WAY ABOUT FOLKS!......SMH. STAY ANONYMOUS MY DUDE.....AND A 1500 ISNT BISHOP G EITHER HES HIS LIL BROTHER. SERIOUSLY!.
DeleteUsing "maul" and "cat" how clever. So you're getting mad and talking tough to someone you don't know?
DeleteUsing "maul" and "cat" how clever. So you're getting mad and talking tough to someone you don't know?
DeleteDnt have to know a person to know they can and will get fucked up messing with the wrong/good people!.....kno dat!.
DeleteNot with a little kid on the internet though
DeleteLook who's here, THE GREATEST RAPPER ARRIVE. Lu ma nigga
ReplyDeleteHe ma nigga too
Delete...or people know he used to be a bad man. "if you find a gram plus, I'd be buffin brass knucks / best listen to your dawgs get Son of Sam'd up"
ReplyDeleteAlso, they probably heard songs like Hater Hop. Whoever he was dissing in there (and I'm sure they know who they are) probably got the message loud and clear and kept quiet.
Lupe has shown he has the potential to be an assassin if he chooses. I know if I were a rapper, him or Eminem would be the last person I would want to start beef with (on a record at least).
So if we wrote letters to one another via USPS concerning the topic then that'd be okay?
ReplyDeleteHe's flowing exactly like Nasty Escobar NaS on this one right here... kind of weird with the beat but I'm feeling it... bravo Lu BEST RAPPER ALIVE
ReplyDeleteLOL!.........
ReplyDeleteLOL....YOUVE BEEN HAVING ME ROLLING DUDE. BUT ANYWAY THE HELL WITH HATERS. IF PEOPLE LIKE FNF THEN ITS ALL GOOD. "THESE BITCHES GON HAVE TO LEAVE" THO. IM NO LONGER ENTERTAINING GETING MAD AND ARGUING WIT THESE......PEOPLE. ALL THE FNF FANS THO...WE LOVE YOU!........THE REAL ONES. LOL.
ReplyDeleteHomersexual
ReplyDeleteYeah... lyrics are on point but you guys know this was poorly put together, it lacks the energy from the last tracks he's dropped recently
ReplyDeleteHow was this poorly put together? Prove it.
DeleteOH!....HAVE GREAT NEWS!......ALL IN FAVOR OF DAMAGED HOPE....LUPExBISHOP GxDOUGHBOY..GUESS WHAT?.......IT ISNT COMING OUT. ISNT THAT GREAT?.....WOW THOSE GUYS ARE GREAT!.....LOL HAAHAHA!.
ReplyDeleteTetsuo and Youth is gonna be dope... Skulls gonna leave me speechless... Lu even tweeted "Skulls is my favorite album" and "Soundtrakk got Skulls sounding like a bouqeut of roses!" :D
ReplyDeleteI feel like this right chere is a statement track tho (love it or hate it) this joint is stirring the pot definitely...
For real
ReplyDeleteLets imagine all the people loving Lupe Fiasco and actually doing good on this earth.
ReplyDeleteyeah music/beat is horrible.. but nice lyrics, as usual
ReplyDeleteNot As Horrible as your understanding is son......smh.
DeleteNIGGAZ HATE ON THE BEST RAPPER
ReplyDeleteIM DONE WIT EM BRUDDA!......SMH.
Deleteguess he's never heard little weapon. bishop g can spit
ReplyDeleteAs I read these comments, it really sadens me to see how the few who are supposedly fnf fans down people who are near and dear to lupe!..........like how can you possibly support him alone without supporting what and all what he stands for?........his upbringing, peers, way of thinking and ect...its like people dnt even care about his family and friends. I vivid remember his buddy bishop......its like everyone just tend to forget about him and talks about him when in reality, he's a very talented artist aswell so ive found.......i remember him well, traveled everywhere with lupe!..........and was an artist aswell.......just sad to see fans deface a part of lupes family one of whom he deeply cares for. But you guys like lupe??? Get a grip!.
ReplyDeleteTruth!
DeleteYea in so many ways your right....but who cares ya know? Everyone so stuck inside of now that they tend to overlook or forget. But god bless Bishop and his family.
ReplyDeleteTruth! This nigga never heard Little Weapon, thus probably never listened to The Cool. You missing out son!
ReplyDeleteI never understand... Why flock to the blog just to hate and argue with the diehard fans? To feel good about yourself? Parents didn't give you enough attention? Obviously not since you never learned say something nice or say nothing at all. I'm tired of the negativity about every damn track my nigga drops. He's on fire right now and showing the game he's going to stay real to true hiphop. Ignorance is enemy so stay out of the vicinity of...
ReplyDeleteFor real, let the nigga shine and celebrate him. All ya'll have no substance behind your reasoning to start up negativity. Everyone should want to think critically, and that's what Lupe does everyday. You tell'em Laz B!
DeleteWe are lupe fans, not bishop g fans, i understand he's lupes friend but dosent mean we have to like his music, i'm not hatin just got my own opinion, js
ReplyDeleteWe have all heard little weapon, and just because bishop spits a OK verse dosen't mean he's great, the other song that this blog put up of his,not long ago was terrible in my opinion, anyways this was dope, unique and just lupe! #T&Y
ReplyDeleteWhat makes it OK? #T&Y
Delete@ A 1500, We like sarah green, matthew santos, not bishop G,that's just how some of us feel, he can never be on lupes level EVER!
ReplyDeleteLOOK DUDE......SPEAK FOR YOURSELF AND GUESS WHAT, I LIKE EVERYONE YOU JUST NAMED ALSO!....BUT YOU LEFT OUT A FEW PEOPLE. SMH PEACE!...DO SOME RESEARCH BEFO YOU GO YACKIN AND DOWNING PEOPLE. 1500/FNF UP!.
DeleteLupe should collab more with this bishop G guy then we can determine how good he is, until then give this guy a break PEACE OUT
ReplyDeletePeace
DeleteALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SIMPLY LISTEN TO THE MUSIC. ALMOST ALL WHO HASNT HEARD BISHOPS MUSIC ARE JUDGING from a"SONG" OR "VERSE"......sad.smh. lupe didnt have to lead me to him. I just follow up on him and were convinced once i did. I support FNF as a group.
DeleteBishop G do you even lift?

DeleteA 1500 just face it your brothers shit and can't rap to save himself,you defending him is doing him no justice, your embarrisin yourself, please get off this blog, IT'S CALLED LUPEND, NOT BISHOPEND
ReplyDeleteACTUALLY.
Deleteto be honest tho just give your opinion of the song fsfs. there waaaay bigger problems on this planet then who's better than who, i am really surprised at the amount of passion people put into it, i mean that brain and time could be used for something positive and worthwhile
ReplyDeleteLUPEND FNF UP ALL DAY MAYNE
DeleteYezzir...
DeleteSo how many times yall pray to Lupe a day after coming home from work
DeleteSome of us do and some of us don't, but we play his music bottom line.
DeleteNah man some y'all this dude like a religion though. He's a human
DeleteTHERE'S NO SUCH THING AS G.O.A.T.

Deletecant believe the ppl that have listened to lupe way longer than me doesn't know that he is asking Jay Z to side with him in his fight against the big agenda led by the music industry
ReplyDeleteEven through joy i feel the pain
ReplyDeleteEven in the sun i feel the rain
Even when i'm high i feel the lows

Deleteyour mum had one last night
Deletea 1500 you are gay
DeleteId Like to hear any of you rap!.....lol....some of us here cant even put a bar or metaphor together yet alone explain what it means...poor children.
ReplyDeleteLupe would be ashamed of you. You speak English and "try" communicate in English, but you don't can't type out a coherent sentence. Read a book Nigga. I do mean Nigga literally.
DeleteTo be honest one minute people want Lu to be lyrical next minute they want sone easy to listen to songs, lasers was a mix of both yet people were still unhappy.
ReplyDeleteBishop G naw don't do it
ReplyDeleteare you kidding me?!
ReplyDeleteCan't understand why people hatin'
ReplyDeletethis is straight fire
And you said he sounds dead?
Thats why its AMAZING
Lupe the Killer...Killer..killAH!!!
