Lupe is a legend, growing up in the midwest, Chicago cats produce some of the best lyricist of all time and Detroit to. Common, twista, kanye, lupe, Just makes me feel proud when I play lupe its like a living story in the midwest, from poverty to knowledge such a legendary cat.
Afric Network Bruh you said best lyricists of all time and I was with you untill you named Kanye. Kanyes one of the best producers of all time but lyricist?
@@Gorfvan I bet you ain’t learn that only around the time you wrote that a year ago. I bet you thought he was lyrical around the time that Chudi guy did.
Naw I think they understood Lupe looking back, but Charlemagne was poking for a reaction. It's harder to sell to a mass audience stories that are infused with social commentary, politcal ideals, or a particular moral value because their is the danger to it being reduced to just slogans and rhetoric for rhetoric sake. Now Lupe is a lot more versatile then that, but it's a tough sell.
I don't agree with the new Lupe but I see what made him change. His own people (mainstream) turned their backs on him. We had a gem with this guy and I personally blame the people for not supporting him. 5 years down the road Faizon will be back up here talking about Lupe didn't make nigga's head bop --- we do it to ourselves. Happy birthday Lu.
Darius Adams It's not really new. Lupe has always been a martial artist and a proud nerd. Rap didn't really pan out for him, because Lupe is honestly too smart for the average listener. Like 85% of the references are over most people's heads. Like you may not even realize the shit was a punchline unless you got a genius.com readout and a Lupe interview on the record. And he has made clear, he ain't dumb down nothing. Even on Drogas he tried to make his music more palatable via beat selection but the lyrics are still over their heads. Eventually, a brother will be like "forget this, im out" Lupe was too good for rap
@@koldraiynedownskayle5744 Didn't PAN out LOL!!! Lupe sold millions and cultivated a cult like fanbase. I'd say he did well considering the style of rap he did.
@@jman1562001exactly. People actually protested Times Square and shut it down because the label wouldn’t release his album. He is the only artist to have supporters shut down Times Square by protesting lol
Shit I wouldn’t waists my time on the breakfast club either all it takes is one time to realize their point of views. Very disappointing watching this knowing lupe is better than this

Greatest mixtapes of ALL time + 3 classics + he made skateboarding look cool and embedded it into the hiphop culutre + top 3 lyricist + coolest motherfucker alive...need any other reason?
Stop it. Kendrick holds his own against AbSoul, and sometimes even outraps him. Lupe has never, and will never outrap AbSoul...not lyrically, or by any other measure...so, do the math.
I can’t believe how many times these “interviewers” interrupted this man AS HE WAS ACTIVELY SPEAKING! And Lupe was so respectful each time, bless his heart. What a fucking shame! And they made dude uncomfortable with the irrelevant ass questions. Learn to read a room, y’all. We didn’t come to hear you guys talk over each other and your guests. This platform is what it is because of the people brought on to speak, CERTAINLY not because of the hosts.
I want to see a Lupe Fiasco and CTG interview in 2018, CTG has grown a whole lot since then and I feel the conversation would be different and positive.
REPS NORTHSIDE SO HE ROCKS THEM BRAIDS, 11HUNNIT FRIENDS ON HIS MYSPACE PAGE .. STACK THAT CHEEZE GOT 7HUNNIT PLAYS , PRODUCER MADE EM TAKE IT DOWN, SAID HE HAD TO PAY , OPEN MIC CHAMP 2WEEKS INA ROW, X D BOY WIT A BBOY FLOW ..
I need a current interview. His last album was phenomenal and I wonder what he’s up to now. He probably got blackballed for not being “industry” enough.

Mad respect for what he said about rappers vs. Lyricists. As a Lyricist myself, that's refreshing someone said that. I grew up listening to rap. Became a Lyricist, still have love for hip hop but can't stand listening to people who just 'rap'. You got 2x 16 bars per track. That's a lot of words. That's a lot of chances to touch someone's soul. Do it. If not, you just in it for a paycheck. More specifically, you got 2x 16 bars to give praise to God or at least reference his glory to some degree.
Some people say lupe fell off after the cool but I thought tetsuo and youth and drogas wave 2 was a return to form for him. He’s one of the greatest of all time in my opinion.
Why do niggas gotta be like this he says he listens to jazz and blues majority of those genres are just sounds and you take it for what it is. That’s how you gotta take this trap sound or whatever you wanna call it just cause niggas ain’t checking for you sonically he gets sour
I think most people think that because that was way back in the mid 2000's. He's put out alot of great music including two amazing albums and nobody really talked about it because he did it solo. So people think he fell off or isn't big anymore but the music is still deadly
Damn Lupe You ain't fall off but you fell back... I understand the new age artist have sucked up all your fans just to turn up it's hard to pop I feel you bro 🥇
He's a *MASTER* at decoding! 🔥 🧠 Get on your grind bruh, Lupe Fiasco's 'introduction to rap theory and practice': ua-cam.com/video/zBHRsYhYb-o/v-deo.html

They’re not rocking with lupe calling out breakfast club favorite artist rappers “not lyricist “ LMAO tell them lupe! This guy really said 2 chainz LMAO lupe reaction answered that.
The people that paved the way are always invisible. Most hiphop junkies probably dont even know him. Just like how most pop fans dont know the great 80s pop bands who set the way for every crap thats coming out now

Oh damn,thought something happened.
Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM happy bday
O I thought he had 4 eyes before he flipped his glasses down,. Breakfast club need's to screen people before they let people on,..
this dude is probably the most underrated rapper ever
jammin yammin besides Childish Gambino
Aureon Nelson what do u mean? Even before Awaken my love, gambino had a really big and loyal following. Hell, Even his freestyles got over 14 mil views
I hope he keep focused..
Agree
Yep. That's how he likes it tho
Tetsuo and Youth and Drogas Wave are 2 of the best hip hop records this decade

Ik this late but that’s absolute truth 💯
two best ever potentially

DAMN you know I never thought about it but too many great acts from the midwest. Don't forget Bone thugs, Kid Cudi, Eminem, Dilla. Legends
💯
Afric Network Bruh you said best lyricists of all time and I was with you untill you named Kanye. Kanyes one of the best producers of all time but lyricist?
Chudi Harris Bone thugs from Cleveland but I think you already know that now:)
@@Gorfvan I bet you ain’t learn that only around the time you wrote that a year ago. I bet you thought he was lyrical around the time that Chudi guy did.
Show dis man some respect Lupe a whole legend out here
Lupe was really educating everyone if this interview, but they were all too ignorant to comprehend the substance in what he was saying.
Naw I think they understood Lupe looking back, but Charlemagne was poking for a reaction. It's harder to sell to a mass audience stories that are infused with social commentary, politcal ideals, or a particular moral value because their is the danger to it being reduced to just slogans and rhetoric for rhetoric sake. Now Lupe is a lot more versatile then that, but it's a tough sell.
You got wierd, and we weren't ready. Now we realize you were prophetic and ahead of time. 😘😘😘😘
Nikki St. Clair you’re so right. he’s been ahead of his time with everything even fashion.
Bingo
He's ahead of his time almost to a fault
The dude is Ra in the flesh, much respect to the legend
I never slept on him
One of the greats...underrated too
Don't worry guys it's just Lupe's birthday
Happy born day Lupe 🎂🎉🎁. . .
Thought Lupe died. I be worried when I see “Classic” in the title
Couch Tomato I know I was like oh shit
I def thought the same.
Couch Tomato same 😭
That's a fact
I don't agree with the new Lupe but I see what made him change. His own people (mainstream) turned their backs on him.

Get Lupe back on The Breakfast Club
He doesn't do interviews anymore
Lol he's said he don't like Charlemagne like that and does do big interviews anymore
Shit I wouldn’t waists my time on the breakfast club either all it takes is one time to realize their point of views. Very disappointing watching this knowing lupe is better than this
Lupe was one of my favorite rappers back in high school 🤗
Ok.....did something happen to Lupe? A little suspicious about this throwback interview
Tony Brown man I was thinking the same thing
Edwin Wilson yeah you know they do that when someone die or something wild happen. Good or bad
It's Lupe's born day
Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM ooohhhh ok cool cool.
Tony Brown bro I said the same damn thing!
LUPE is Kendrick Lamars Father ... FACTS
Nope. Nas is Lupe father tho
Nope. Nas is Lupe father tho
@@brashadcarr6759 SLR 2 ... go listen read the comments.
Period!
Been saying this for years
Lupe is underrated because he too humble. Nothing wrong with that though

Is not underrated
Thread Why Lupe Is The G.O.A.T
HE MADE MURAL
OddMaq and failure
and SLR
And Hurt me Soul
And glory and where do i go
Greatest mixtapes of ALL time + 3 classics + he made skateboarding look cool and embedded it into the hiphop culutre + top 3 lyricist + coolest motherfucker alive...need any other reason?
You know this is a throwback look at Charlemagne.
Nikki St. Clair 😂 that's what tipped me off. I didn't read the headline at first lol. But I looked at Charlemagne and thought 'hold up" 😂
I'm still flabbergasted at how much his complexion has changed. 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Lupe is better than Kendrick and Cole
Not better than Kendrick you buggin
Stop it. Kendrick holds his own against AbSoul, and sometimes even outraps him. Lupe has never, and will never outrap AbSoul...not lyrically, or by any other measure...so, do the math.
Moncler&Trues waaaayyy better than Kendrick
RajOfColumbus what album he got thats better than good kid maad city?
Moncler&Trues good kid maad city is overrated. The cool Trump's that
Lupe Fiasco is bein' whiteballed from the music industry
what that mean lol?
breekwhal blackballed by white people
Jedi King Pudge You kidding right? You ever been to a Lupe concert? Its 90% white people. We been holding him up since day 1.
I like that flip.
@@Gorfvan their talking industry, not fanbase though...

Lupe is one of the most underrated rappers of all time.
Saw Lupe perform last month at the Sony Hall building was lit! 💃❤💛💚💖🎶
Lupe is the goat!
Lupe is #1 lyricist of all time
Andre 3000 is
top 7
Lupe is one cool dude
6:42 is the reason he stopped coming up there.
Envy is so wack!
who is the white girl what is her name?
changenoways Aubrey from Diddy's group Danity Kane
Lupe > Kendrick
Darris Robins what's a good album from Lupe? Don't know much from him
Nah.
4 Nem' start with his first album Food and Liquor. Work your way up.
Darris Robins facts
Tpab > any Lupe album
Drogas Wave
Food and liquor will forever be the best album of all time..period!
Not even close

Happy b day to the GOAT
Now I know what Yee meant the other day when she said Lupe wasn't coming back... 🤣
Cause all they do is gossip in the breakfast club and lupe ain’t about it specially when airheads are interviewing you
I need a current interview. His last album was phenomenal and I wonder what he’s up to now. He probably got blackballed for not being “industry” enough.

He has an EP called House
He's independent though so even if they try to keep him out of stuff he got his own brand that isn't look to be most popular... He's well off.
I would definitely like to see a recent interview.
Check out the podcast he has with Royce 5'9. He's been really lowkey but the pod is a great other side of lupe.
He’s busy ending what career Royce had left
Praying over the vagina is the funniest thing ever
Who said he did that? Who was the woman?
I agree with him for having canibus and Eminem as a standard for lyricism
this tricked the hell outta me. i clicked this so fast thinkin it was new lol
Lupe has to one the of my fav rappers, The Cool is just a super dope album

They will never be a rapper like this coming out of Chicago again
1 of my top 10 MCs hands down easily
For everybody wondering why they uploaded this. It's because it's his birthday, he's not dead or nothing

Lupe a conscious mind.
Nas is the best of all time But I'll say Lupe has an argument of being top 6 of all time lyrically.
Charlamagne is over due for his skin care appointment LOL

LUPE THE LIVING LEGEND .. FREE CHILLY
One of the best rappers in the last 15 years.
35 years
It's been a while. I need a new Lupe x Breakfast Club or CTG interview.
Yesssssss
This what I been waiting on right here! Real Lupe fans no wassup 💯💯
Mad respect for what he said about rappers vs. Lyricists. As a Lyricist myself, that's refreshing someone said that. I grew up listening to rap.

Happy birthday to my muslim brother lupe 🙏🏾❤️
its his birthday yall calm down with saying he died lol
S.L.R.2!!
Hip hop saved my life my favorite song by Lupe
Get him back asap
Jeremy Davis he said he was never going back to the breakfast club
Some people say lupe fell off after the cool but I thought tetsuo and youth and drogas wave 2 was a return to form for him. He’s one of the greatest of all time in my opinion.
This kinda scared me...I thought he died or something
Y'all should go and support Lupe's docu series called "Beat n' Path"
Check out lupefiascobnp for details. Support a brother✊🏿
Why do niggas gotta be like this he says he listens to jazz and blues majority of those genres are just sounds and you take it for what it is. That’s how you gotta take this trap sound or whatever you wanna call it just cause niggas ain’t checking for you sonically he gets sour
Lol I was googling thinking he died🤣🤣🤣
Clicked so fast
I like Lupe but I don't think you can say that a guy with 12 Grammy nominations is the most slept on rapper.
He deserves 19 lol
I think most people think that because that was way back in the mid 2000's. He's put out alot of great music including two amazing albums and nobody really talked about it because he did it solo. So people think he fell off or isn't big anymore but the music is still deadly
Why did it seem like Charlemagne was trying to insinuate that Lupe is gay?
is it me or is the glasses bothering you cause he accidentally knocked the scopes down and its halfway down its bothering me😂😂😂

Katy Perry Lol this nigga
I was about to comment these guys found a unicorn..... old video tho.
Him n Yasin Bey be from the same Planet
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmmmnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn, charlamagne was looking like bill duke back in the day
Pete rock need to fall back making that wack mc music now and be happy he had someone as good as Lupe to pass the torch to
lupe is the man!
Happy Birthday Lupe
I hope everything is okay.. is there a reason this interview just got uploaded?
Thanks for answering!

They’re not rocking with lupe calling out breakfast club favorite artist rappers “not lyricist “ LMAO tell them lupe! This guy really said 2 chainz LMAO lupe reaction answered that.
Dude talking shit bout the other rappers who got a different style smdh it’s sad🤨 worry about your own lane
Where was he talking shit ? They asked him a question and he answered it... get out ya feelings
CTG don't know rap saying it's back two chains, Wayne, and Ross are lyrical when asking this God MC...
The people that paved the way are always invisible. Most hiphop junkies probably dont even know him. Just like how most pop fans dont know the great 80s pop bands who set the way for every crap thats coming out now
Lupe smooth as hell !!! love his smooth sexy voice !
This was scary as hell, then went on twitter and was relieved "My dude still buddahist monk doing Kung fu so we good"
Ayee‼️‼️‼️
Yessirr‼️‼️‼️
MY FUCKING GUY LUPE
I think it his birthday that why they uploaded this interview one of my favorite mc of the early 2000's
He's always my favorite MC.
I immediately thought of my girl Amanda Seales 😩😆
