@@user-yf3kq6hz7gserious question... So his "nonsensical" views on Islam make him silly as a whole?! The topic is speaking on how he's one of the few artists who utilize a high percentage of his brain capacity in music, and you're arguing that he's silly because of a very particular topic. So I don't see why he can't be both lol
Tetsuo and Youth has some of the most lyrically dense songs that I've ever heard. Even above J.Cole and Kendrick. Lupe is definitely in the top five all time.
Anybody that doesn’t recognize that Lupe is easily the best rapper in the world and of all time is accidentally showcasing that either they aren’t yet smart enough or their emotional attachment to another rapper is greater than their computation skills. One must categorize him with literary greats rather than rappers. He is more Balzac than Nas
Maaaan listen. I’ve had so many debates as a lover of hip hop/ rap, however you wanna phrase it but your top 3 list! We can gone and put a period at the end of that sentence. I don’t care to challenge that at all. 🫡

778 like. You know why Lupe is one of my favourite artists, because I believe in the disciplinary message of what hip-hop could and should be. In fact I write rhymes and make songs as therapy and to reciprocate the lessons I've been learning as a troubled youth growing up ...
What disciplinary messages could one get from lyrics that mainly focus on getting money from selling drugs, having sex with hood rat strippers, having phat rims and dope jewelry. Not to mention the female generation of “artists” whose biggest talent is having a huge ass. Oh and stealing “samples” from original and actual creative artists.
Holy (To be "Set Apart") Excellent word choice Lupe, I see what you did there brother... I was just rocking the cool yesterday! All the way through lol Love you brother Lu, you truly inspired me growing up, and Sunshine is underrated track! 1 love everyone, Shalom 🕊️ ✊🏾 🙏🏾
There is the 🐐 rapper/emcee conversation then there is Lupe. Carrera Lu is in a category all by his self. His intelligence, his calculated wordplay and the light he shines on real life issues is bar-none.🫡🫡 Carrera Lu 🫡🫡
Couple of compositions from Pac Nas’s It Was Written In a mix with my realities and feelings Living conditions Religion Ignorance Wisdom And Artistic Vision I began to jot Tap the world, listen and drop it
I always thought he was kinda corny back in the day but I listened to ALL his shit on repeat. Funny thing is, I just wasn’t really listening I was just jamming. I’m still unearthing new metaphors and double or triple meanings to each line. I had to truly grow up before I could absorb the message and understand his power. Literally getting chills from thinking about it
I remember hearing Kick, Push on MTV when it came out back when I was in 8th grade and being so in love with it right away. Until that point, I didn't think hip-hop could embrace skateboarding lol. I've never been a skateboarder, but it was dope. I've only heard that song from him, but even today, it pops up into my head randomly without listening to it for long stretches of years. There are very few songs that do that to me!
It might have to do that you were very young hip hop and skating were really big mainly in West LA and Venice gotta remember Hip Hop started underground before it became mainstream MTV will only embrace so much of the actual culture.
You My the best choice AND I Will for ever be your Brother fan, and thank you Lupe you spoke for us FROM the Hood but we saw the truth and new we also have a choice not matter what FOREVER. KICKIN PUSHING COAST....,.. WAR WAR WAR WAR PEACE ☯️☮️
You know we need to talk about change now and the people that don't understand it ain't nobody listen to his first album and making change it's because they was awoken to knowledge what can we do now to even change the situation to what's going on in Chicago that's the question you should be asking about the violence in the gangs and the killings and the other stuff that's going on my boy
Lupe impress me. You have the money, and I love your new album. Go INSPIRE HBCU STUDENTS. Like wtf? All these elite campuses have resources. In the words of Lawrence…WAKE UP
What act so woke and hold yourself to a higher standard but still use the word "finna"? And I respect dude he's smarter than most rappers and didn't sell out
I miss the lupe that said fuck Obama and stood up for Gaza. Now he talmbout he got IDF friends and both sides ain’t innocent 🤦🏿♂️ trust in God and not people cuz they will disappoint you
Illest emcee in the modern hip-hop community 🎶
No doubt
Absolutely. Nothing like him
Exactly 💯✅
💯
A guy who claims Drake has deeper raps then KDot
If there’s ever been an emcee that used his brain to full capacity it’s Lupe
Dude is smart as hell
He’s actually pretty silly. His views on Islam are nonsense
@@user-yf3kq6hz7g things like that are not factors in discussions of being a dope emcee though.

King Los used to be like that as well
one of the most underrated mcs of all time. Never gets enough credit for being such an amazing lyricist
They suppress his messages
40 yrs old. I was the inended lyrical target for this era. The amount of lyrics lupe has put out...probably un matched my most Rappers.
Can we please get a Lupe and Nas record
Nas said on Drink Champs that he loves Lupe and would want to work with him.
If they ever work together that would be masterpiece 🤞🏿
Man im hoping and praying and begging for a lupe, Nas, KRS and Black Thought record
@@GLBJ260That would be deep and beautiful.
BEAUTIFULLY ASKED MY FRIEND. CAN WE PLEASE!!!
This dude is the realist man on the planet
Hurt me soul
Lupe having gray hair hurts me soul..
Classic song and album
He did that song in one take
My favorite song from him
Shit crazy
@@MaXiUmImPuLsEsay WORD?!
Lupe, is easily in my top five favorite emcees. He is the best freestyler, and I mean to rap off the top, no pre-written lyrics.
And still keep the rhyme scheme intact, it’s not easy
Freestyler
Tetsuo and Youth has some of the most lyrically dense songs that I've ever heard. Even above J.Cole and Kendrick. Lupe is definitely in the top five all time.
IMO Mural is the greatest rap song of all time.
@@JACOTRAwas just listening to that today coming home from work…insane pen display. Lupe is really on another level when it comes to writing
@JACOTRA my fav Lupe song. It's a masterpiece.
"professionally accept, what ethically I hate..." 💚
Yo, I forgot which Lupe song that is
Is it off of Drogas wave?
@@samw.1109 Ms.mural
@@samw.1109Ms. Mural off the album Drill Music in Zion

Too smart for the industry
Nah he is jus smart to you

No one's ever done it like Lupe
Prof. Lupe Fiasco
Sick of destructive violent lyrics. The culture needs peace love and respect❤
LUPE WAS THE BEST RAPPER IN 2006 HANDS DOWN
2006? Cmon man....lyrically you can say he is the greatest of all time..
Best lyricist now to me.
High Vibration Energy!!
He'll always be my fave rapper

Lupe getting old 😢
Makes me sad bro
@@sbj97 we all getting old, I was 15 in 2011 now I'm 28 🙃
The best lyricist ever!
He actually does fit in the past the music wasn't pushing one message or style.
Straight Legend
simply the best!
Love him dope lyricist
Tetsuo and Youth and Drogas Wave are within my top 10 albums.
Lupe is awesome. I always wondered why him Kanye and or Common haven’t collaborated more considering they are chi finest.
Hood 2 Hood
I always thought he was kinda corny back in the day but I listened to ALL his shit on repeat.
Funny thing is, I just wasn’t really listening I was just jamming.
I’m still unearthing new metaphors and double or triple meanings to each line.
I had to truly grow up before I could absorb the message and understand his power.
Literally getting chills from thinking about it
Lupe changed my life
The best to ever do it
Thank u Lu love your music❤
Damn Lupe looking like 50 yrs of hip hop

Lupe Fiasco looks so healthy,handsome and happy!! 🥰🥰
Romeo think he slick 😂😂 naw fr Lupe 🔥🔥💯💯
Lupe goated with this rap shit. Mans needed a rap genius to even know what he was talking about
Would love to hear him & Kendrick on a track together 😮
The cool was one of my favorite album of his 👌👌
A better producer needs to remix all of lupes discography
Lupe is cemented in My T5 💪🏿
Shot out to Lupe Fiasco The Cool
I love Lupe. One of the dopest artists of the last 20 years. That said...why is he 42 going on 53? lol
Long live Wasalu!!! 🙌🏾
Lupe, Stic, M1, Brother Ali, Immortal Tech, The Grouch, Eligh, Talib Kweli, Rass Kass, Zion I… some of the illest.
If done right you’ll be unliked…. But you’ll be unlike.

He just ran from what he was wrestling with. Should have embraced it. He might of been big as K Dot
Best rapper from Chicago is from 290
What act so woke and hold yourself to a higher standard but still use the word "finna"? And I respect dude he's smarter than most rappers and didn't sell out
He just said a whole lotta nothing
