Lupe Will Forever Be In My Top 5, His Intellect Combined With His Creativity Plus His Song Topics Are Virtually Unparalleled. He's Great Although He May Not Get The Credit He Deserves.
So much truth in the statement my dude, props! That's true he won't get the credit he deserves probably until he dies out of nowhere and people will come out and finally say "he was the GOAT", "lyrical genius", "I always admired him". Smh.
He's always been the same he's just realized with his music he can achieve greatness by trying to change the world and educate them, Lupe has just evolved he's always been a philosopher to an extent
Bro dont ever compare Lupe to Wayne.. I've never got a little wayne metaphor, or anything, years after knowing the song by heart.. You can listen to lupes songs.. and still find new things that went over your head.. Thats why wayne is so popular.. he dumbed it down.. Lupe is really in another stratosphere.. Only hiphop head can truly appreciate Lupe.. Lupe is a rappers favorite rapper.. But not a rap pop star.
Motoi Pearson The Only heads this flew over was the Ones who were bumping lil wayne at the Time calling him the GOAT and who werent listening to this fire.
Lupe is my favorite on this beat. He brings it here! Compared to the others that used this beat, his is the only one I could listen to continuously. The others sound alright, but Lupe gets off on it:)
My favorite part is 2:06 to 2:30. That's the part that made my heartbeat fast as hell when first heard it (yesterday). I love Lupe, he's fresh and never recycles styles. He always fresh.
***** Word, his ideology has been a bit contradictory to his actions a bit lately too. For instance speaking out against or outright shitting on artists who brag about certain things or promote certain life styles. But then openly promotes Drake to the point that he's now dedicated a day of the week & a new song to him/the ladies (Drizzy's Law). I'd like to think that he's trolling.....but if it's an act it's a bit TOO convincing.
OgI Kidd he co signs Drake because he is honest with his feelings and reflects on his problems with his father and being worried about relationships. Drake only talks about money and bitches in a couple of songs, you're just not listening.
Iam I listened to his entire last album, and yes the only things he was talking about was money and women. Many of his songs started off "Oh girl I mis you *cry cry*" and then the verses turned into "But we getting money, fuckin bitches n'shit" then back to "but none of them mean as much to me as you do *cry*....No but really guys I'm a thug who really struggles....Honest". Drake is the very thing Lupe has been preaching against up to this point.
Wayne is a rapper. Lupe is a lyricist. Wayne makes music for the ignorant masses who don't appreciate art. Lupe makes music from the heart, true lyricism and artistry. Wayne sells millions of records cause most rap fans aren't truly into hip hip. Lupe sells less cause the masses don't want art, they want bullshit. So I give Wayne props. He has a place in rap. But true "heads" know Lupe is one of the top 10 lyricists of all time. Do we all agree?
ive been looking for this song for a year and i just happen to keep loooking and looking now ive found it thank god this song is sooooooooo powerful to me and thanks yoube
Man, he blesses this beat. He just rides the beat so nicely and the bars that he spits on it are sun-hot. Jay, Wayne and Jeezy came nice on this beat, but Lupe lays this beat to rest, and kisses it on the cheek when he tucks it in. Freestyle or no, this song here is fire:)
This is the lupe i like. The chill introspective tone in this combined with his intellect is what made him so good back in the day. But now its a lot of political stuff, which although is worth speaking about i didnt like as much
Lmao wtf. Lupe always been political. I hate when people try to stifle artists on speaking on issues important to them. If you really want Lupe to be apolitical, then you really aren't a fan of his content
@Tom Ross TV RAW no, it’s because politics doesnt make for good sounding rap in my opinion, it’s why I could never get into rappers like tech nine. I like learning about and engaging with politics in books.
Man, you gave a beautiful assessment of this song. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't have come up with this. Gotta give you the world's most wonderful hi-five for this:)
By far today's most underrated hip hop star. This is the type of stuff most people identify with. Real and raw hip hop...if only it got as much airtime as mindless and recycled gangsta rap, people would realize what a true 'gangsta' Lupe is.
I like how the picture of Jay and Lupe Show how Lupe actualy puts on a real face while Jay z just hides behind his shades with his Dumb looking mouth open, Same pose as the 90's
yeah both of his albums were sick as hell he aint turn mainstream and hopefully he stays true and doesn't turn mainstream and lets hope he does not give up on three albums.
For those who doubt this guy check this out Lyrics: "Lu don't moo (move) no cowards (cow-words) (cow-herds), you only heard lines (lions)." Don't doubt the skill peoples. haha
@ahwowlovely that's a bold statement. Lupe has already been critically acclaimed as one of the top MC's of this generartion with only 2 albums. He will definetly be remembered. I mean, the man had thousands of ppl protest for his album to come out. His impact cannot be denied.
man im just glad he's gonna go out with a bang, can't wait for LupEND, he's gonna be a beast, the time and effort putting into it, its gonna mean & vicious

This song 🔥🔥🔥 Af Lupe fiasco just went in on the whole beat
Say dat
word is he actually freestyled this whole shit…that’s impressive
@@Garcusmarvey u can tell by the pauses. Dear summer always gets the best outta niggas
They took you for granted young Lu SMH
Indeed!
Fr
13 years later, still listening
They never appreciated my mans, he was supposed to be the future... but he got blackballed for telling the truth.
Different levels
Lupe Will Forever Be In My Top 5, His Intellect Combined With His Creativity Plus His Song Topics Are Virtually Unparalleled. He's Great Although He May Not Get The Credit He Deserves.
So much truth in the statement my dude, props! That's true he won't get the credit he deserves probably until he dies out of nowhere and people will come out and finally say "he was the GOAT", "lyrical genius", "I always admired him". Smh.
Hall of Famer
"Rich or broke.. a nigga aint mad, cause self esteem will make a regal ride like a silver seraph"
"put something on their minds, give them lines to remember" what a line!
That you remembered!
@@dynamitejimi guess he put it on their mind for real!
One of my favorite songs of all time. It always randomly pops in my head.
Facts!
I used to listen to this when I was 10....I'm pushing 30 and still know the lyrics. This is the difference between quality and quantity.
I was 16
HUGE FACTS!!!! LUPE IS PURE QUALITY!
Same bro still remember the words all these years later. “Put sumn on they mind give em lines to remember “
Same here, some songs are just timeless
Same ❤
Sample is Morning Sunrise by Weldon Irvine.
"Ooh, ooh , ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, morning sunrise!"
Well he basically rapped over the Dear Summer beat that Jay Z used.
Thankyou!
The first song I ever heard from Lupe Fiasco. Shout outs to my brother for putting me on this all those years ago.
Is anyone else still listening to this?
2021!!
Some shit will never get old
We still here
neva stop
yeah
This was a time to be alive🥺
Yea fr
Royce seriously thought that he could out bar Lupe!? 😂😂😂
He kinda did comparing the two songs. I don't think Royce saw Lupe Fiasco hitting him with the blitzkrieg 😂
Self esteem will make a Regal ride like a silver seraph 👌
Jason Taylor just wipe the french fries off the seat 😎
@@GhettoArabSage and lean back
@@JetHammer & I tilt my hat
man this my shit so many memories
facts in Kansas I remember
So many
Bought this on a mixtape in May 2007 while I was in Chicago visiting my fam in front of Harold's
"I went from M.C. to being M.S. this microphone controller to motivational speaker" ---crazy line!!!
It could be "a mess" too
because his label situation
fell through
Still one of my favorite songs by Lupe.
Food & Liquor was 1 of the best albums I've ever heard.
He's always been the same he's just realized with his music he can achieve greatness by trying to change the world and educate them, Lupe has just evolved he's always been a philosopher to an extent
pre-dreads lupe
LOCS
still nice
Take me back 😢 Lupe fiasco Still on my favourite out the chi a legend period
Lil Wayne and Lupe = best freestyles to this beat ....
Jeezy to
Bro dont ever compare Lupe to Wayne..
I've never got a little wayne metaphor, or anything, years after knowing the song by heart..
You can listen to lupes songs.. and still find new things that went over your head..
Thats why wayne is so popular.. he dumbed it down..
Lupe is really in another stratosphere..
Only hiphop head can truly appreciate Lupe.. Lupe is a rappers favorite rapper..
But not a rap pop star.
@@Jagsjshsksbsnaksjdlj Foreigner, begone
"God willin September is when i plan to fall, I mean drop, like the temperature"
COLD BAR. pun intended
Lupe one of the greatest
"God willin, September is when I plan to Fall... I mean drop like the Temperature." This bar alone flew over everyones head. smh.
September is the begenning of fall and he was dropping f & l 1 at the time. And it's cold in the fall
When you think of the word pairing it's brilliant. Both nouns with respective actions. September: Fall. Temperature: Drop. Such a smooth segue.
Motoi Pearson The Only heads this flew over was the Ones who were bumping lil wayne at the Time calling him the GOAT and who werent listening to this fire.
DangeR Santana3 word!!!!!!!!!!!
and farenheit was dropping
Lupe is my favorite on this beat. He brings it here! Compared to the others that used this beat, his is the only one I could listen to continuously. The others sound alright, but Lupe gets off on it:)
Still a classic man
kendrick lamar ft wale and lupe fiasco that would a killa song
So smooth. Unparalleled flow. One of my favorite freestyles.
My favorite part is 2:06 to 2:30. That's the part that made my heartbeat fast as hell when first heard it (yesterday). I love Lupe, he's fresh and never recycles styles. He always fresh.
I love how effortless the song is yet I can still feel a perfect mood being set :P lupe's always been good lol
If this was a freestyle off the top of his done then by God he is a genius; I love this!!
Ain't this ain't written, I swear Autumn
I was just recording them as I thought em
I was there when he dropped this. straight off the dome. dude is a killer.
eguzman31 Nice; I have to see Lupe in concert doing his thing and I bet it was an amazing experience for you.
I think he has a outline or blue print, kind of like how curren$y does. Have a few poiant ideas or rhymes and just connects them.
@@GhettoArabSage he said it LOL
Lupe don't need no type of drugs to say crazy bars fuck all that that's I why I like Lupe
The fucking memories! Damn these were the good days.
15 years!!!!!! Damn life is good!
I’ll never not come back to this song every now and then. This was my entire childhood on repeat.
Lupe killed this the hardest
My man was slept on in the 2000s
i love how the further back you go, the songs no matter the popularity, are from random accounts
Man, the beat on this song is just outrageous and the flow is phenomenal. Everything about this song is great. Love this song:)
Lupe is and will ALWAYS be the best rapper to me. idc who is hot now. Lupe's Bars are interdimensional.
Lupe is dope. That's a fact. All you folks with your lame opinions while you eat popcorn on the couch; save it. Lupe!
This song still gives me the chills, one of the dopest versions.
Much Love & Respect For This Man. Wise & Humble.
I miss this laid back Lupe, now he sounds really bitter and angry even in his more up beat tracks. He really needs to find his peace again.

OgI Kidd he co signs Drake because he is honest with his feelings and reflects on his problems with his father and being worried about relationships. Drake only talks about money and bitches in a couple of songs, you're just not listening.
Pussy ass drake

One of the realist.
Wayne is a rapper. Lupe is a lyricist.
Wayne makes music for the ignorant masses who don't appreciate art.
Lupe makes music from the heart, true lyricism and artistry.
Wayne sells millions of records cause most rap fans aren't truly into hip hip.
Lupe sells less cause the masses don't want art, they want bullshit.
So I give Wayne props. He has a place in rap.
But true "heads" know Lupe is one of the top 10 lyricists of all time.
Do we all agree?
ive been looking for this song for a year and i just happen to keep loooking and looking now ive found it thank god this song is sooooooooo powerful to me and thanks yoube
The best!
Holy shit this video is 10 years old lol
Remembering when I add this on my playlist during freshmen year. Too many memories ....
Man, he blesses this beat. He just rides the beat so nicely and the bars that he spits on it are sun-hot. Jay, Wayne and Jeezy came nice on this beat, but Lupe lays this beat to rest, and kisses it on the cheek when he tucks it in. Freestyle or no, this song here is fire:)
it’s 2018, someone played jay-z dear summer, but all I could hear was lupe rapping
This is the lupe i like. The chill introspective tone in this combined with his intellect is what made him so good back in the day. But now its a lot of political stuff, which although is worth speaking about i didnt like as much
Lmao wtf. Lupe always been political. I hate when people try to stifle artists on speaking on issues important to them. If you really want Lupe to be apolitical, then you really aren't a fan of his content
AQGOAT24 What part about “although its worth speaking about I didn’t like as much” is stifling, dummy?
@Tom Ross TV RAW no, it’s because politics doesnt make for good sounding rap in my opinion, it’s why I could never get into rappers like tech nine.
I like learning about and engaging with politics in books.
"and this ain't written"
WOW ONE OF THE BEST LINES EVERY!
next to "how u gonna back out ain't no back door like porch"
it was perfectly timed
*ain't no back door like Porsche
@@akumar Both are right. It's a Double entendre/homophone.
Man, you gave a beautiful assessment of this song. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't have come up with this. Gotta give you the world's most wonderful hi-five for this:)
dear chicago summer where you been at with my friends
Lupe a dope Mc n got a smooth Flo
true fans know that lasers wasnt the lupe we know and love, BUT we still stand by him no matter what because we appreciate his music
"far from being a leader, but I'm still being invited by teachers"
its a freestyle
Who's here after Joyners drop?
By far today's most underrated hip hop star. This is the type of stuff most people identify with. Real and raw hip hop...if only it got as much airtime as mindless and recycled gangsta rap, people would realize what a true 'gangsta' Lupe is.
2018 & it's still 🔥. Lu B making timeless songz.
I like how the picture of Jay and Lupe Show how Lupe actualy puts on a real face while Jay z just hides behind his shades with his Dumb looking mouth open, Same pose as the 90's
1. lil Waynes version 2. Jays 3. lupe
rob Gotti crackhead
GhettoArabSage u moron im not even from the US sit down harami boy
rob Gotti it'll be more haram if I thought Lil Wayne is better than Lupe. I guess I'm good
Jeezy
GhettoArabSage lol lil Wayne version was neck and neck with this you can’t deny starter Wayne and prime Wayne .
yeah both of his albums were sick as hell he aint turn mainstream and hopefully he stays true and doesn't turn mainstream and lets hope he does not give up on three albums.
Anyone else been on a Lupe Nostalgia tour?
Im gonna get a shitload of hate for this but i think weezys "dear summer" was better.
got to luv it
Love the vibes
mane lupe is one of tha best lyrical artist out there
i aint heard dis is awhile
love dis song
probably the only off the top freestyle with longevity i've ever heard. i never go back listening to rappers off the tops, but this shit is too good
Most slept on 😴💤
Time flies
Love this man
This song just popped in my head I to hear it #classic
For those who doubt this guy check this out
Lyrics: "Lu don't moo (move) no cowards (cow-words) (cow-herds), you only heard lines (lions)." Don't doubt the skill peoples. haha
and the worst part is that he's not gettin as much recognition as he should be. I LOVE LUPE! :)
My all time favorite Lupe song
God bless the souls that created this genius and god bless the soul that is this genius
love lups!
lupe is raw.he real underated.hes a beast
you crazy papoose be coming wit dem hard ass lines
Did and found it so-so, which is already something right after listening to Lupe.
Damn.. This is my first time hearing this...But it brought me back to the Summer of 2007🔥✊🏿
@ahwowlovely
that's a bold statement. Lupe has already been critically acclaimed as one of the top MC's of this generartion with only 2 albums. He will definetly be remembered. I mean, the man had thousands of ppl protest for his album to come out. His impact cannot be denied.
Lupe easily Top 5 all time. F & L, The Cool, T & Y, Drogas WAVE and DMIZ are classic albums in my book
for real bruv
"fast petry" is a good description, intelligent rhymes
i never heard a wack verse from dis dude. he's always consistent.
Lupe Fiasco is the new generation of hip hop. People don't realize it.
I am feeling this
HE GO madddd harddd.
love this guy and B.o.B along with Wale and Cudi
Forever on repeat
man im just glad he's gonna go out with a bang, can't wait for LupEND, he's gonna be a beast, the time and effort putting into it, its gonna mean & vicious
Damn this comment ain't age very well
