Lupe gives a very nuanced insight on the importance of education in a world where the common sentiment is "nothing we learn in school is applicable in real life."
in 7th grade it became clear that the CRS album prolly wasn't gonna happen. i literally prayed every night for WEEKS for them niggas to get it together😭😭 whatever. im over it (im not)
@kardinalbloo Yeah. Kanye's gone crazy. Pharrel doesn't have that passion to rap anymore. Lupe's the only one that's maintained and elevated. That being said, I don't want Lupe using the CRS moniker without the other 2.
When he was leading up to the answer I was like I hope he has Drogas Wave and I'm glad he did. I think it's one of the best hip hop albums ever produced. Didn't get the recognition it deserves.
CRS never had a real chance. Lupe has a trillion shelved/discards albums himself alone, some that were officially announced by him, some by Atlantic (even a solo one with only Pharrell production), etc. Kanye is a whole other story regarding shelved and discarded projects.
38:06 Ab-Soul claims rap genius was started because of him.. maybe they’re going around telling lyrical rappers that they are the sole reason for starting rap genius?
Honestly, I would've liked to just hear the interview without the long intro explaining Ai. It doesn't feel necessary at all, especially at this time. Maybe as a separate video, but not here. No disrespect.
Yall gone skip over eminem using A.I. to bring back slim shady? One of the most creative and dope usages of a.i. to date? Way more interesting use if a.i. and one of the dopest albums this year... Samarai not with standing...
@@smokeyrobinson7768 its definitely not its a sleeper with a few decent tracks a bunch of skips and isnt even lupes best work... Less tracks and less bangers you niggaz are weirdos. Let me see em drops album set internet on fire his fans applaud it and it sells... Commercially successful and critically acclaimed... Lupe has a lackluster debut barely mentioned and people are more interested about what he said about kendrick than anything on hos albulms Yall state points with no context that mean nothin He had less track and that means what? He didnt use A.I. and what does that mean? You are on a video about using A.I. in hip hop and then try to use that as a point of contention agaiñst em but applaud glass of water... Mean while doss is a better more effective use of a.i. he delivered what his fans wanted on his term and conceptually and in execution delivers the superior product your lupe stans or em haters... Ems album is better lyrically conceptually in execution sales consumer appreciation artistic vision on every level and in every way conceivable its just better... Lupes album was good I only listen to 3 or 4 songs off of it now and havent played the actual album since its release .. the shits mid at best

This is the type of Hip-Hop journalism we need! Great interview!
AGREED!!! much appreciated! 🙏
Lupe gives a very nuanced insight on the importance of education in a world where the common sentiment is "nothing we learn in school is applicable in real life."
I'm loving this side of Lupe that likes interviews. Two in the last month - hell yeah. This was great.
three actually if you include Sway alongside the iHeartRadio one with Angela Yee and this one. All great interviews.
🙏🏿
Don Will and Lupe need to do a song or two together!!💯
Lupe Fiasco being more active with interviews makes me so happy
us too, stay tuned we got more stuff dropping with him soon!
Lupe is the Wolverine of hip hop. Team up here. Group there. Organization here.
But actually I haven't seen him Collab with rappers in a while. I think Aesop Rocks Pumpkin seeds was the last one?
@relativelybasic yeah I think that was the last I heard him team up too. Lu got some older features out here too
in 7th grade it became clear that the CRS album prolly wasn't gonna happen. i literally prayed every night for WEEKS for them niggas to get it together😭😭 whatever. im over it (im not)
US Placers was so clean
@@KSN30 Same for Outkast reuniting. It's not gonna happen sadly.
😂😂😂😂

DROGAS Wave is an amazing album man
That album is beyond crazy
@@1LETHALMC and when you learn about Igbo Landing and African American Slave mythology, it gets even crazier.
When he was leading up to the answer I was like I hope he has Drogas Wave and I'm glad he did. I think it's one of the best hip hop albums ever produced. Didn't get the recognition it deserves.
Superb
@@ImInYourBrains💯🤯
In your 40's, your ear and soul welcomes jazz and R&B. Pharoah Sanders, Herb Alpert, Luther Vandross and Anita Baker embraced me.
Would love to hear Lupe rap with Wayne, Em, Black Thought, Freddie Gibbs, Cole etc
Last 3 episodes are classic interviews! Touché
Gotta protect lyricism at ALL COST! 🫡
🫡
"Hell yeah!" -- to cool jazz at 40. 🤓😎👊🏾
Damn lupe is ageing like fine wine. I look this Tonk lupe he looks great
Its hard being a Lupe fan! Go to Havard to be a Lupe stan!
Stupid with the raps but the raps never stupid
😂
Dope show, the algorithm needs to do it's thing

Hope you enjoyed it!
😂😂 A technological marvel
Black Thought - glasses!
Watched this whole thing I loved this
Check out the other episodes, this season was gold!
great overview of AI in rap music
Fire finale!! 🔥
🫡
That intro is fire.
That intro was a big part of my initial commitment to watch the whole thing through
@@terajiimay’all got good taste! 🥂
Great interview. Thank you!
FNF Radio takes me back.
Definitely was. Good Times...
Great times
Radiohead edit had me cracking up. But FR, FR. These rap groups need a PROJECT MANAGER. 😂
🤣🤣🤣 Love that section!!
🤣🤣
So grateful, so truly grateful.
This was so great! Thank you!

Lupe arms look bigger than his body lol. Rapping ass ninja!!
😂😂😂
I saw a Virgil Abloh Exhibit in Atl at the museum downtown right b4 he passed....
Imagine seein Lupe skateboarding down the block holding grocery bags
Lmao
Lupe got swoll lol I gotta get my gains up
Gratitude
I would've loved to had heard why he chose Drogas Wave as his favorite album of his.
CRS never had a real chance. Lupe has a trillion shelved/discards albums himself alone, some that were officially announced by him, some by Atlantic (even a solo one with only Pharrell production), etc. Kanye is a whole other story regarding shelved and discarded projects.
Damn never though?
Still thinking about how he made Drill Music In Zion in less than a week, it's SO GOOD
Dope interview!
My boy DonWill
Larry June gotta be in the glasses rap group
I knew Cavalier from his battle with Lupe on twitter.
Fire rapper, check out his episode here… ua-cam.com/video/jYzka6boIYo/v-deo.htmlsi=ZdBouOycJUVKTSYO
Shit, I didn’t realize that’s what happened to Beanie
FNF Radio was a time
Different glasses for Different occasion even it's for prescription.
Large Professor 👓
Maybe he should take the Gorillaz approach to child rebel soldiers.
1:01:11 he missed a good opportunity to talk about how “Drill Music In Zion” is a Jazz album…
👀🤔
@ "I defend myself in court..." 🎵
4-ize!! It's in his name!
Lupe-I
Don will you need to interview Ohene Savant
👌
Simple man here, seeing Mr Jaco and I intently click👌🏾✨
How would you nerd out? You didn't know DMIZ was written in 3 days?
😂😂 damn
Ask my man Lupe if he's ever read Snow Crash!!!!!!!!! That book was MADE FOR HIM!!!!!!!!!
Tag him in the comments on our page
@ good looks on the rec! 🙏🏿💪🏿
@@okayplayer which page? I figure you both have so many outlets that this was the most direct way to say lol
@ go on one of the IG posts for this episode. Can’t promise anything though lol 🙏🏿🤞🏿
Lupe been in the gym…
I wonder why he's doing interview now. Didn't his album already drop like 3 months ago?
Promoting the tour
38:06 Ab-Soul claims rap genius was started because of him.. maybe they’re going around telling lyrical rappers that they are the sole reason for starting rap genius?
🤷🏿♂️🤣
Nerdy but in a really Nerd way
Type ish
Hood microwave 🥸🤯😎
10:32
They taking over our music now smh
He said we don't need any more Marcus Garveys? He obviously didn't think before saying THAT
Honestly, I would've liked to just hear the interview without the long intro explaining Ai. It doesn't feel necessary at all, especially at this time. Maybe as a separate video, but not here. No disrespect.
Appreciate your feedback. We added chapters so you can get straight to it. Thanks for the support though, hope you check out the others!
I like Lupe but I can’t stand him pointing at people. All that martial arts and some basic courtesies are forgotten.
Dont get it twisted. Lupe from the Chi. Not Japan.
You right.
What you mean? Lol
I fucking love lupe😂😂😂❤❤❤
Pause no lil nas
x respects humans and their flaws
Bleeding heart no gauze
Yall gone skip over eminem using A.I. to bring back slim shady? One of the most creative and dope usages of a.i. to date? Way more interesting use if a.i. and one of the dopest albums this year... Samarai not with standing...
Samurai is better than that album and he didn’t need AI.
