my favorite lines from this don't know if im getting it right but "I don't need a japanese flag, vash the stampede of hip hop straight from the hip pop, no matter how much the ememies bolsters, im a hold up down like holster right up on my shoulder"
That mean he doesn't need a "red dot". The Japanese flag is red dot. The previous line he was talking about how great his aim is. "Nowadays I hit whatever u set my sights on with no lights on with silencers on my 5th(.45 acp) pleads the 5th (5th amendment) ..you can literally break down a lupe verse all day
@ghettogov616 "i dont need a japanese flag, vash the stampede of hiphop straight from the hip" he was making an anime reference to the anime trigun, the main character was vash the stampede. vash was the most notorious outlaw known for his marksmanship and killing EVERYONE wherever he goes. basically, lupe sayin hes killing everyone else in hiphop, and "off the hip" without even tryin.
Ohhh, After ALLLL these years, I still didn't know that... Still know nothing about Trigun, but I knew this had to of been a referenceto something I wasn't hip to... Only Anime I know is Ninja Scroll, Akira and Ghost in tthe Shell...... Thank you. 💯💯💯
@jtcinc i thank no one but lupe for lupe. whether nike or adidas signed michael jordan would not have mattered; he would still have been michael jordan. whether kanye or anyone else signed lupe doesn't matter; he would still have been hip hop's messiah. the new God's Son...the best thing to happen to hip hop since Nasir.
@dannytheodros this is an earlier version of 'pressure'. if you notice lupe's verse is completely different on this track. also, jay-z is featured on 'pressure'.
@julchu0 if u google "video to mp3" and click on first result u'll b taken to simple website where you copy/paste web url into text box and it converts utube and other videos to mp3 files for itunes
windmillingman, jus shullup its not reading into it too much because, Lupe is the type of rapper who would go deep, as far as naming his song wit a double meaning or message. Thanks to DahrChe 4 pointin dat out :D
Bro, Jay-z needed his ego stroked. I was so pissed when I heard the release version of this song, and heard that whack ass trash verse by Jay-z on it. This was the best song on the whole leaked album, imo. Then Jay-Z happened.
@@joecarter8823He (Jay) probably thought this would be a knockout punch. Notice they've never worked together again after this. Same with Eminem. Em gave him 'renegades' and took Royce off. Only changed 1 line and still killed jay
man I'm not saying you're wrong, but Weezy has to be a contender, they're on the same level in my eyes, same with Em and Dre, they're all sick, they're all geniuses, they're all immortal.
I agree with most of what you said. You should know though that Eminem and DRE work from 2 different places. DRE is a producer, not an MC. Eminem is an MC, not a producer. Yea, they both dip their feet in the other one's profession. DRE MCs sometimes and Eminem produces sometimes, but that's as far is it goes. You can't really say Dre is above Em.
Yep. Lupe had a version of food and liquor that leaked before the release. This song was on the leaked version. When the album released they added some songs and removed some songs. This song was renamed pressure. The verses are completely different and the album version features Jay-Z
Vash the Stampede of Hip-Hop....
Thumbs for Trigun reference.
@Isabella Belleza 2:30
@Isabella Belleza mos definitely
Yo this was the first song i ever heard by lupe he goes harder than concrete
That little guitar rift thing is in the opener to Vash the Stampede, one of the best animes.
I fucking love Lupe
its been like 6-7 years since I first heard this....and still, that third verse. Just wow. The rhyme scheme
Pre food and liquor- Lupe at his best! And more complicated lyrics than ANYTHING out now!
Yes
my favorite lines from this don't know if im getting it right but

I like both of em equally.
Little Big in the waist, 2pac-is in the back, Call em Lu-Vis, Ogs covered in blue dye.....
never knew about this version. sick!
living in this world we're strugling, may our Lord forgive us for our sins!
lupe was aggressive on this track.
May this beat REST IN PEACE!
Oh my god this man is a genius

TekNiquePro but vash is a pacifist

@Armahghetto this is the original version that got leaked so when the album drop the one wit the hook is wat you heard
Great Song!
@Armahghetto the one with the chorus is called pressure ft. jay z. this one was made 3 years before food and liquor
Lu's flow is ridiculous
This song, holy shit the lyrics and delivery grade fuckin A!
@airballer95 it's on the Food and Liquor Advance (Leak)

Lupe> the world...lupe for president
Damn Lupe....Leave this beat alone, you've murdered it (alongside Jay) once already....I feel bad for it
Oh maaaan.. this beat? it's THE thing, I'm telling you!
this is what i was looking for from lupe finaly!! godly
@Roosevelt3113 Yes, Food and Liquor (Advance Album)
@dannytheodros this is an earlier version of 'pressure'. if you notice lupe's verse is completely different on this track. also, jay-z is featured on 'pressure'.
very nice

lupe for prez.
How have i never heard this version wtf
Pressure!!! Yeah!!!
this is the original song that was on the leaked album the beat was then used in the pressure song for the album release
Tight too!
Yeah man with that biggie flow sounds so sick, lyrics are bananas as always
I need this instrumental lol
His lyrics became more deep and complex in The Cool while Food and Liquor was more understandable on the first listen.
The Cool is a concept album. If you can find an artist that can tell a story like lupe then that point would be valid
@nyrisj it was different..people said food and liqour went over peoples heads
It's sad that Lupe dumbed down his verses and still killed jay-z
Bro, Jay-z needed his ego stroked. I was so pissed when I heard the release version of this song, and heard that whack ass trash verse by Jay-z on it. This was the best song on the whole leaked album, imo. Then Jay-Z happened.
@@joecarter8823 I agree. But the leaked album had a lot of fire other than this too: Hustlaz Song, Game Time
@@joecarter8823 true... bless mann
@@joecarter8823saying Lupe's 'pressure' verses was weak is saying something considering what he put together
@@joecarter8823He (Jay) probably thought this would be a knockout punch. Notice they've never worked together again after this. Same with Eminem. Em gave him 'renegades' and took Royce off. Only changed 1 line and still killed jay

i say The Cool is his best, but check out food & liquor, that one was great too
@lousmooth Too bad theres only one Lupe. This guy is very unique and hes one of the best ever (i think hes the best emcee ever)
Slept on one of da best lyrists
the more i hear from lupe, the more i like him
bruv ur so right man.
@stevendiplomat21 Cool, yeah I found it on the Food and Liquor Advance leak
