As more of a rock fan I always appreciated this song. So much wisdom and such a great flow and sense of melody. Lupe ain't no joke, already a legend in my opinion
I took a class in contemporary music and our final project was to present a music video to the class and break it down. Naturally I chose Lupe Fiasco- Words I Never Said which had 2.3 million views at the times. The same years Lasers came out. I explained how under appreciated this type of rap/hip hop music was becoming and of course some of his content is meant for "free thinkers", "hip hop heads" or people looking for layers or depth to a song but even just a casual listen to anything by Lupe is nothing short of amazing. His hit songs are even great to a hip hop head like me, but his intellect and lyrical ability is faaarr too overlooked. I guess my prof must have agreed with me considering he gave me 97% on the presentation. Sorry about the long comment guys this just sparked a maaaad flashback lmao! Keep up the real hip hop discussions guys! #LostInVegasFamily #GeorgeandRyan
Jerod Conkel wasn’t his best album but it wasn’t garbage that’s too far. It’s like lupe’s equivalent of Kanye’s graduation. Still objectively good music, just much more radio friendly than the music that grew his fanbase out the gate
One reason why I love your guys' channel is cause not only do you react to music, you take the time to break it down and really analyze the content that's being presented to you. I love your guys' perspective on music and the world. It's really refreshing to see this
Y'all are spot on describing the depth of where Lupe's consciousness can go lyrically. Stuff that even a guy like me from Montana can vibe with. Great choice.
Thank you for showing us lupe. As you said, many people overlook Lupe, me included. I've gotten into rap a bit late. When I was young my dad introduced me to 50 cent, chamillionaire, and nelly, but my mom was who kept me from going much further. It wasn't until I was probably about 15 that I started listening to Tupac and Snoop Dogg. And grown to respect the artists before much more. I then went on a crazy binge of rap from the golden age and fell in love with Kendrick Lamar's persona. It is because of the fact I got into rap so late, most of my rap knowledge is from what was playing on the radio now and in the past. That is why the only song I had by Lupe Fiasco was "The Show Goes On". Great song to party to, but I never knew how smart and lyrical he was until I watched this. Thank you soooooo, much for showing him, and making me want to look more into him.
Thank you for being so candid Kyle. I wish more people were more open minded an eager to learn about different artists. Says a lot about you sir. You're in for a treat regarding Lupe. He really is one of the greatest to ever do it (check out the Food & Liquor, The Cool & Tetsuo & Youth albums).
Damn Lupe to me one of the greatest to do it. No one can touch the way he raps metaphorically. You can spend hours trying to decipher his lyrics. !!!PURE GENIUS!!! I'd recommend listening to The cool- hip hop saved my life- Bitch Bad- haile selassie- jonylah forever- little weapon- dumb it down- Madonna- mission- mural- prisoner 1&2- something that I never had.
Thanks for watching Ed! Glad you enjoyed it. Do yourself a favor and check more Lupe out on your own time. He's an AMAZING artist. Shout out to Liverpool!
Yeah after you introduced me to Lupe Fiasco with your recommendations, this is one of my favorite Lupe songs for sure, man so happy i found out about him thanks again for that, listen to him everyday, keep up the good work!
Listen to switch by lupe !! It's 🔥 Every time the background says “Switch”, Lupe will change the flow, meter, cadence, vocab, and topic to correspond to another niche of rap.
EXACTLY regarding the Kendrick point...this is where the Lupe issue started...Lupe should leave it alone as he isn't upset with Kendrick, but he is upset with the culture not properly supporting him and his brilliance while praising Kendricks adolescent lyricism and expression addressing these very adept issues, but over crazy production and stage shows... Love both artist, but Lupe is a better MC and lyricist and isn't even close.
Major facts... Lupe is the GOAT.. .he definitely has a few albums I didn’t like, but if we talking pure lyricism, it’s just Lu and Aesop Rock... no one else.
I've been on hip hop since 2003/2004. Im white lol so I wasnt raised on rap.(First song i ever really felt was Just A Moment- Nas/Quan) But Lupe became that dude for me. Food and Liquor, The Cool and his fucking mixtapes. Amazing. You picked my favorite song from my favorite rapper. Hope yall react to more of him.
Lupe is definitely a GOAT lyricist! I get what you're trying to do while breaking down his lyrics, but his words speak for themselves if you listen. They're so good that you don't have to explain them. I'm a 41 white guy that grew up in country town Wisconsin and I get it.
That reaction to hurt me soul was a breath of fresh air. Thanks for reacting to this song i requested! Please react to Lupe fiasco' s " put you on game"! Song had bars from start to finish!
Its a reference to the police..Elliot Ness was a cop apart of a group called the Untouchables...so its as uncomfortable as an untouchable(police) touching you
I think you're right. I actually came to this video to say this. The Untouchables in India are known to be filthy and smelly. Line makes MORE sense than Eliot Ness' Untouchables.
I have always interpreted "untouchables" as someone who is considered to have immense power over a person within their societal bubble for example a favored politician, important law enforcement figure or an admired coach. When these "Untouchables" touch you (in whichever way you may think), retaliation could mean risking everything. We still have a long way to go but we've made progress since 06', The BLM and Me Too movements are proving this.
This is one of the best reaction/break downs ive ever seen. But it probably helps that I love this track just as much as you do. Right up there with the best tracks Lupe has ever done
@@mogamatdeensalie4956 Mostly wrong. Most of those artists have given credit to Lil Wayne (e.g. Kendrick, Drake, etc.) for being a large influence. Lupe is a legend, though.
My fav Lupe song. It is refreshing to hear Lupe be praised like he should cause so few understand and respect the genius he can reach on certain songs. Not gonna sit here and say every song he does is brilliant but then name an artist that is...
Sooo much facts put into this track and the way Lupe wrote it skillfully and so polished shows how he's in another level of lyricism. From just the way he addresses and speaks on first world problems to third world problems... Just speechless man. Amazing upload Ryan & George also big props to Lupe man just wow.
Lol. I hear ya man but I just can't get past the production on Hi Definition, Go Go Gadget Flow and Gotta Eat. Lupe will always destroy it lyrically but I can't skip 3 songs on a CLASSIC. I might let you slide with one skippable track but not 3.
Lost In Vegas If I HAD to skip one of those songs, it would have been Hi definition actually. But then again, that song wasn't bad either. That Tetsuo and Youth though, in due time, will be an album that's also classic worthy but won't get the recognition. It's a long ass album but you're never ever bored and you're fully engaged all the way through. I guess like a dope fun 3 hour movie
New sub. Nice to 👀 someone honor and dissect the genius that we know as Lupe Fiasco. I still bump this track in my rotation of Lupe. I look forward to any analysis of Skyzoo. Thanks again for quality content on RUclips.
Lupe fiasco is one of the most underrated story tellers. I would love to see you guys do another video of him. Put you on game, and strange fruition are classics
Definitely one of the greatest hip hop songs ever. I'm blessed to have been able to understand his bars when I was young. Lupe changed my life. Damn hip hop just changed my life😂😂😂
I just stumbled upon your page. Liked and subscribed, anyone who gives Lupe this much time and effort will get respect from me. Lupe is the best lyricist that I've ever heard and my favorite concert that I've ever seen. He isn't given enough credit. Thank you for giving him his due.
Man Ive been listening to Lupe since I was a child and you guys actually opened up new points or lines i missed or didnt understand bc oh ignorance to some of the subject matter talked about. Great review/reaction this one of my favorite channel keep up the good work
I Remember when he dropped "Coulda Been" and "Failure"......man listen. Im from Chester, Pa, very poverty riddled city, jokers around my way thought I was weird for playing Lupe, its crazy to see how me liking these type of artists also affected who I like today.
Yeah I hear you man. Lupe came out with that ''Kick Push'' joint and everybody on my block counted my man out. I gave him a shot and checked out a first and 15th mixtape and I KNEW people had the wrong idea about him. They chalked him up to a corny backpack rapper. People still sleep on Lupe TIL THIS DAY. It's sad.
Love Lupe, this is one of my favorites by him. Coming from a totally different background than you guys I view this song as a story-- but the way you two are reacting with such a familiarity to the lyrics is really exciting to watch, it's a whole new spin on a song I've loved for over a decade now. It's helping me love it even more-- you guys make excellent content man
Been subscribed for a week or so now and I loved the reaction to the RNB song to H.ER, S.Z.A.... jcole and Kendrick.... but this one right here made me a fan of ur channel! 🙌🏿....years since I kno Lupe’s work now and in Israel were I live ppl don’t know much about that level of artists like him, I just agreed with u with every word u described him. The song by himself speaks to me a lot .... and u broke it down for me - the parts I didn’t understood much at the time I first heard the song ( the parts that spoke about the hood). Thank u .keep doing What u do. Much love for u two ♥️
Lmao I just subscribed yesterday and I'm already a big fan of you guys. Lmao the way dude in the glasses reacts to Lupe is exactly how I react to him lmao. He's my favorite rapper. Bout damn time someone shows him some respect. Thank You.
You guys 100% need to listen to E-Dubble - Be a King, it's wonderful. E-Dubble unfortunately passed away a few months back, but his spirit definitely lives on in his music. You won't regret it. 😁
The ''untouchables'' that Lupe is referring is the Hindu Caste system. The ''untouchables'' were regarded as primitive and pagans whose very touch or sight was polluting to others.
Peter Green wrong he alluded to "Gotti" already in the previous Jay z line which (with Lupe's mind) only lead me to believe he's referring to the Untouchables/The Mob
Young Butter waffles what you dont realise is, this guys like to pause and explain some stuff or just to let the moment breathe. Mural is 8-9 mins long and the whole video, hate to say but may become boring after half an hour soo, just let them do their job 😎❤️
@@LostInVegas bruuuh 2 years and I'm still waiting for this to drop, I love yaal you dont have to, but just try and do moral by lupe fiasco. Love from Somalia
@@mahamedhabib8499 that would be too much honestly. That song is genius but it's too long and lyrically dense. They would need to do a podcast for it lmao.
Grew up on Lupe and glad i did. One of the first artists to bring into perspective how so many ills go on in the world. Intruder Alert is a strong favorite of mine too Great video guys.
honest and great reaction to a great song long time rock listener you all have broadened my horizons first time to comment been with yall since 40k subscribers my whole family watches the channel guys keep on keepin on
@GUY PRODUCTIONS why? It's the first song in rap history that is a big double entendre, an extended metaphor... Ion know why u think that that song is his worst...
Really appreciate you guys reacting to this. I never knew this side of Lupe fiasco cuz the only song I heard from him is the show goes on. Now I see why he's considered to be a top tier rapper
Ive watched this 3x. You guys better do at least something off Drogas Wave, if not the full album. Best songs for a reaction would be Manilla, Kingdom, Mural Jr, Sun God Sam & The California Drug Deals
Somebody mentioned this reaction in the comments so I came to check it out. This album got me through some hard times. Brought me back but with a smile. Thank you
Thanks for watching! I encourage you to go back and check out his earlier albums. 'Food & Liquor', 'The Cool' and Tetsuo & Youth. One of the greatest rappers to ever do it.
This video made me insanely happy at how you guys were able to depict and understand that each lyric has a in depth meaning behind it. I would LOVE to see you react and breakdown Streets on Fire. Imo, that's one of his best songs ever and one of the best rap songs ever!
This is one of yalls best reactions . The lyrics alone. I woulda watch another 45mins of just y’all unpacking the lyrics to this masterpiece from one of the masters of hiphop: Lu
I’m glad you did a reaction to this. I’ve never heard of Lupe. I love the old school vibe of the music with the 808’s Used for the best. Great lyrics, very honest and pure poetry. I’ll be checking more of his music out. Thanks for doing this artist. Once again, the break down of the lyrics is great. I love the channel guys. Keep up the great work. Keep up the free thinking.
Heard it, not a MASTERPIECE imo but a solid body of work. Couldn't get past the production of many of the songs. Will Lupe always blow your mind lyrically? Of course! BUT after 'The Cool' l, I haven't liked many of production choices in Lu's albums.
Lost In Vegas I think you don't consider it a masterpiece because you probably skimmed through it. The projects songs has Soooo many layers to it you gotta take days to decipher it. Belive me it is a masterpiece G
Bro I NEVER 'skim' through Lupe's material. I don't consider it a Masterpiece because I don't like many of the production choices. Production plays a large part of MY criteria when evaluating a body of work. You should know by now how we get down when it comes to this rap thing chief.
Hate that this vid has so few views. Just started watching your vids a couple days ago and this is the one that earned the subscribe. Couldn’t agree with your opinion more, and definitely gives credibility to your music knowledge. Respect.

Lupe is too gifted and grossly under appreciated.
Chet Lee Kowalski dude. Yes. I couldn’t agree more man. Grossly underrated it’s a shame really. But I’m glad some people recognize the genius
He's not under appreciated he's under rated.
Chet Lee Kowalski yessir Lupe (disgustingly) under appreciated
Agreed. I’ve enjoyed listening to J Cole, Joyner, Eminem, Kendrick, etc but they already get hyped. Lupe is underrated.
@@cdorsey15yt81 Joyner and new em are trash , mostly joyner tho
Can yall just do a lupe marathon
LOL. He's worth it, that's for sure.
For real
This
Yup a track from every album ! 🔥
Lost In Vegas even if it’s an old one still relevant “put you on game” by Lupe
The Cool is a classic in my eyes one of my favorite Hip Hop albums
I knew people were going to focus on that lol.
"I hope ya bullet holes become mouths to say my name" that line was dope!!!
Put You On Game definitely one of Lupe's dopest tracks
austizzy1 there were only a couple of songs imo that keep it from reaching classic status
Put you on game is pure evil. It's awesome
Murals - Lupe Fiasco
Brilliant.
Eric Cogar exactly
JKinG Music Probably one of my favorite pieces of music.
This!!!!
Now that's a f*cking masterpiece.
Eric Cogar please no. That is one of the best tracks ever written (imo) but that shit would be a 50 minute video.
As more of a rock fan I always appreciated this song. So much wisdom and such a great flow and sense of melody. Lupe ain't no joke, already a legend in my opinion
Yes indeed
AMEN
As a Hip Hop and Metal Head I can confirm this lol
I am a songwriter in the rock genre. I couldn’t ever imagine having to write so many lyrics for a single song. Props! Great lyrics!
Lu cuts across all genres of music. Greatness right there.
This is the greatest hip hop song of all time as far as I'm concerned lupe is my number 1
Yeah this is one of those songs that can easily be in the conversation for sure.
Greatest rapper alive
Mural
This song is one of the best of all time, but Lupe has made a lot of whack shit. Don't know how you could rank him over Nas, Jay Z and 2Pac.
@@aquemini154 just like i did . what you consider wack i may not its pretty simple actually
I took a class in contemporary music and our final project was to present a music video to the class and break it down. Naturally I chose Lupe Fiasco- Words I Never Said which had 2.3 million views at the times. The same years Lasers came out. I explained how under appreciated this type of rap/hip hop music was becoming and of course some of his content is meant for "free thinkers", "hip hop heads" or people looking for layers or depth to a song but even just a casual listen to anything by Lupe is nothing short of amazing. His hit songs are even great to a hip hop head like me, but his intellect and lyrical ability is faaarr too overlooked. I guess my prof must have agreed with me considering he gave me 97% on the presentation. Sorry about the long comment guys this just sparked a maaaad flashback lmao! Keep up the real hip hop discussions guys!

Dope!
Lasers was garbage
Ayo Indian kid Had a couple of good songs.
Lazers was garbage??? Did you even listen to the album???
Jerod Conkel wasn’t his best album but it wasn’t garbage that’s too far. It’s like lupe’s equivalent of Kanye’s graduation. Still objectively good music, just much more radio friendly than the music that grew his fanbase out the gate
Wish more people did reactions to the Lupe albums like dis
Ooouuu this is a lyrical masterpeice!
I can tell that ya'll know how to appreciate good music. Great reaction!
Thank you!!
One reason why I love your guys' channel is cause not only do you react to music, you take the time to break it down and really analyze the content that's being presented to you. I love your guys' perspective on music and the world. It's really refreshing to see this

Thank you for showing us lupe. As you said, many people overlook Lupe, me included. I've gotten into rap a bit late. When I was young my dad introduced me to 50 cent, chamillionaire, and nelly, but my mom was who kept me from going much further.
It wasn't until I was probably about 15 that I started listening to Tupac and Snoop Dogg. And grown to respect the artists before much more. I then went on a crazy binge of rap from the golden age and fell in love with Kendrick Lamar's persona.
It is because of the fact I got into rap so late, most of my rap knowledge is from what was playing on the radio now and in the past.

I love most of Lupe's songs, my favorite is "Theme Music To A Drive-By". His wordplay on that is crazy.
JRoc Da Mic track is still slapping in 2019
The Deep Cut!
I had that mug on TooDay 👺👺👺👺
Damn Lupe to me one of the greatest to do it. No one can touch the way he raps metaphorically. You can spend hours trying to decipher his lyrics. !!!PURE GENIUS!!!
I'd recommend listening to The cool- hip hop saved my life- Bitch Bad- haile selassie- jonylah forever- little weapon- dumb it down- Madonna- mission- mural- prisoner 1&2- something that I never had.
He is one of the very few artists that live up to the word GENIUS. That word is thrown around very loosely these days.
Please don't hurt me, this ain't personal.
I just wanted something that I never had.
@@LeCrocTPMK that's a dope song
I'd never heard of Lupe, until now. He is sick. WordSmith. Love all that. And your videos. Peace and Love from Liverpool UK
Thanks for watching Ed! Glad you enjoyed it. Do yourself a favor and check more Lupe out on your own time. He's an AMAZING artist. Shout out to Liverpool!
Absolutely! Listen to his 1st 2 albums. Both are masterpiece.
you know whats up dude, Lupe one of the GOATs, Lupe said everything everybodys only starting to talk about now
Adoration of the Magi is another really nice one. The second verse is otherworldly.
Yeah after you introduced me to Lupe Fiasco with your recommendations, this is one of my favorite Lupe songs for sure, man so happy i found out about him thanks again for that, listen to him everyday, keep up the good work!
Yessir! Glad you checked him out bro. He deserves more recognition for his brilliance.
Listen to switch by lupe !! It's 🔥
Every time the background says “Switch”, Lupe will change the flow, meter, cadence, vocab, and topic to correspond to another niche of rap.
Great track!
Check out Mural by Lupe if you want to hear more recent fire from him !

This!!!!
the reaction is going to go for over an hour.

Love both artist, but Lupe is a better MC and lyricist and isn't even close.
King In My Own Mind I agree kendrick is an adolescent among lyricists like lupe, common, mos def, black thought, quasimoto/madlib, ghostface
It's not even close
Couldnt agree more!!
Major facts... Lupe is the GOAT.. .he definitely has a few albums I didn’t like, but if we talking pure lyricism, it’s just Lu and Aesop Rock... no one else.
Lupe is Jeff Bezos richest man in lyricism while Kendrick is Elon Musk being creative with things like his voice
I've been on hip hop since 2003/2004.
Im white lol so I wasnt raised on rap.(First song i ever really felt was Just A Moment- Nas/Quan)
But Lupe became that dude for me. Food and Liquor, The Cool and his fucking mixtapes. Amazing.
You picked my favorite song from my favorite rapper. Hope yall react to more of him.
You sir....welcome to lyrical heaven. And you heard a nice melody of Nas w/Quan. Underrated song.
I haven't heard alot of Lupe's music but this was dope! Definitely gonna go check out more of his work.
Please do!
Lupe really is gonna be one of thoes who is loved more once gone than alive
Check " The Cool" the song... " Intruder alert"
Lupe is definitely a GOAT lyricist! I get what you're trying to do while breaking down his lyrics, but his words speak for themselves if you listen. They're so good that you don't have to explain them. I'm a 41 white guy that grew up in country town Wisconsin and I get it.

Thanks bro!
Lupe is extremely lyrically gifted .
You guys really need to do more Lupe. The greatest lyricist to ever grace a mic.
You guys 100% need to listen to E-Dubble - Be a King, it's wonderful. E-Dubble unfortunately passed away a few months back, but his spirit definitely lives on in his music. You won't regret it. 😁
I love that y'all did this. I loved hip hop prior to Lupe but he definitely helped me fall in love with certain aspects of Lupe.
The ''untouchables'' that Lupe is referring is the Hindu Caste system. The ''untouchables'' were regarded as primitive and pagans whose very touch or sight was polluting to others.
Peter Green wrong he alluded to "Gotti" already in the previous Jay z line which (with Lupe's mind) only lead me to believe he's referring to the Untouchables/The Mob
Jason Harris No such thing as a wrong interpretation according to Lu
Double entendre.....
Also refers to priests touching kids in the Catholic Church.
Clergy are regarded as untouchable as well.
@@worldwiderell1812 Exactly.
We need Lupe on the radio ASAP!!!
We need some Ab-Soul on here please!!!
Thank you for the reaction I've been waiting for this one! Hurt Me Soul is a masterpiece!!
Yall gotta do mural 8 mins of straight BARSSSS!!!
And an hour long video lol.
Young Butter waffles what you dont realise is, this guys like to pause and explain some stuff or just to let the moment breathe. Mural is 8-9 mins long and the whole video, hate to say but may become boring after half an hour soo, just let them do their job 😎❤️
@@LostInVegas bruuuh 2 years and I'm still waiting for this to drop, I love yaal you dont have to, but just try and do moral by lupe fiasco. Love from Somalia
@@mahamedhabib8499 that would be too much honestly. That song is genius but it's too long and lyrically dense. They would need to do a podcast for it lmao.
Grew up on Lupe and glad i did. One of the first artists to bring into perspective how so many ills go on in the world. Intruder Alert is a strong favorite of mine too
Great video guys.
'The untouchable" may also refer to the poorest of the poor in India.
honest and great reaction to a great song long time rock listener you all have broadened my horizons first time to comment been with yall since 40k subscribers my whole family watches the channel guys keep on keepin on
GOTTTTTA DO
Lupe Fiasco - Gotta Eat
Tyler Trott I second that !!!
FFAASSTTTT FFFOOOODDDDDD
@GUY PRODUCTIONS why? It's the first song in rap history that is a big double entendre, an extended metaphor... Ion know why u think that that song is his worst...
Really appreciate you guys reacting to this. I never knew this side of Lupe fiasco cuz the only song I heard from him is the show goes on. Now I see why he's considered to be a top tier rapper
Thanks for watching! Yeah go back and check out Lupe bro. One of the greatest to ever do it imo.
Ive watched this 3x. You guys better do at least something off Drogas Wave, if not the full album. Best songs for a reaction would be Manilla, Kingdom, Mural Jr, Sun God Sam & The California Drug Deals
I'm a huge Lupe fan. It really excites me to see you guys dig deep into Lupe's lyrical prowess in this song
Greatest song ever made.
You guys got the best reaction/slash reviews on youtube love it! Makes me apriciate hip hop even more! You guys the real!!!
Good to see people reacting to a great song - rather than just what is trendy
Just starting to get into rap. You really nailed this song and helped open my ears and my mind to the possibilities of this genre.
T&y is one of my favorite albums of all time bruh. Lyrically today, there is nobody on his level
Heard this song once years ago and it immediately became part of my top 10... and I’m old lol... thanks for giving it props
Lupe Fiasco - Double Burger With Cheese
Yes!!
Do you remember these?!!
ChiTown Chef909 DOUBLE BURGER AND CHEESE
Classic
Somebody mentioned this reaction in the comments so I came to check it out. This album got me through some hard times. Brought me back but with a smile. Thank you
Lupe is a genius.
Thank you for reacting to this song because i have only heard the song called The Show Goes on by Lupe Fiasco
Thanks for watching! I encourage you to go back and check out his earlier albums. 'Food & Liquor', 'The Cool' and Tetsuo & Youth. One of the greatest rappers to ever do it.
Prisoner 1&2 - Lupe Fiasco
track brought me to tears first day i busted FnL open .. mane Lupe made me a fan for life with that album 💯
No lie this album was life changing for me...
HELL YEA LUPE
You need a whole playlist just lupe ... He been one of the GOAT for a times
This song is 🔥. However that 3rd verse is one of the greatest verses I have ever heard in my life from any era.
This video made me insanely happy at how you guys were able to depict and understand that each lyric has a in depth meaning behind it. I would LOVE to see you react and breakdown Streets on Fire. Imo, that's one of his best songs ever and one of the best rap songs ever!
Really hope at some point you tackle Lupe Fiasco - American Terrorist (from the same album)
This is one of yalls best reactions . The lyrics alone. I woulda watch another 45mins of just y’all unpacking the lyrics to this masterpiece from one of the masters of hiphop: Lu
Ab-Soul "Pineal gland"
If you like bars.
Please don't tell my mama this ain't Marijuana
I’m glad you did a reaction to this. I’ve never heard of Lupe. I love the old school vibe of the music with the 808’s
Used for the best. Great lyrics, very honest and pure poetry. I’ll be checking more of his music out. Thanks for doing this artist. Once again, the break down of the lyrics is great. I love the channel guys. Keep up the great work. Keep up the free thinking.
definitely check out lu`s new album DROGAS WAVE , its a masterpiece
thank you guys for giving lupe the respect he deserves ALL of his words still hold weight and reflect on the world TODAY. Lupe is a lyrical miracle.
Tetsuo is a masterpiece, how can you not mention that lmao :)
Probably haven't heard it
Heard it, not a MASTERPIECE imo but a solid body of work. Couldn't get past the production of many of the songs. Will Lupe always blow your mind lyrically? Of course! BUT after 'The Cool' l, I haven't liked many of production choices in Lu's albums.
Lost In Vegas I think you don't consider it a masterpiece because you probably skimmed through it. The projects songs has Soooo many layers to it you gotta take days to decipher it. Belive me it is a masterpiece G
Bro I NEVER 'skim' through Lupe's material. I don't consider it a Masterpiece because I don't like many of the production choices. Production plays a large part of MY criteria when evaluating a body of work. You should know by now how we get down when it comes to this rap thing chief.
Agree tetsuo is a sick album. Very well done (artistically). Although I could of done without a couple tracks
Hate that this vid has so few views. Just started watching your vids a couple days ago and this is the one that earned the subscribe. Couldn’t agree with your opinion more, and definitely gives credibility to your music knowledge. Respect.
