@M Mollen look at you assuming like the asshole you are 👍🏾. I never said he was. I said nothing beats the original, including verses. Get the fuck over it
This track is called "Lu Yourself" for those who don't know. Just sayin. Lupe is fire on this track just like always. Lupe got that sick flow, intellectual lyrics, and powerful statements that no one else has.
Did this dude just say "I'm more set/Morrisette than Alanis". That's the beauty of Lupe, you can listen to his lyrics a hundred times and always catch something new when you go back to listen to him. He is wicked with the wordplay
I'm like super late, but that works two ways. More set like Atlantis, legendary city that sank in the ocean cause it wasn't sturdy enough. Like his word play is insane to think about.
only thing em is better at than lupe is multisyllable rhyming lol oh and of course, i forgot, battle rapping hahaha. lupe has him beat in everything else.
"you dont stand a chance, matter of fact, you dont have half the stance to stand if you stood half a chance..like CHA (CHA is half of the word chance), the dance with this man from the CHAs( CHA from ChaCha, the dance) give it up, just abandon plans cause u dont have the stance like an amputee(missing a leg, so u cant stand right..u have half a stance)" "see,I been lamping,whippin up an answer to these rapprs, who got it backwards like zippin up they pants to pee!" okay crown this nigga..
This was pointed out to me but Lupe is rhyming with the same multi syllabic rhyme scheme throughout most of the song. Internal rhyming with the "-an" and ending his rhymes with "-ee". A lot of people don't realize how impressive this is.
Eminem will always be one of my favorite Rappers but Lupe really has Em beat on lyricism, Em just flexes his rhyming skills on a lot of his tracks but Lupe actually has something meaningful and clever to say on most of his tracks.
I disagree i believe Em can go either way. Either just show off lyricism with a lot of filler , or comedic rap , of he can keep the same consistency in his lyricism while keeping the substance all the while, thats called artistic range . Lupe is dope also though.
Jerrell Warren What? Lupe literally does everything eminem does but better from a lyrical stand point. Ems rhymes could never be as deep as Lupes have as many layers and bar for bar? it’s not even close lmao. Lupe is the best lyricist of all time. Only one that come close is Pun
No a lot of people don't sit down long enough to look past the beats that lupe gets on, its not the beat the man gets on, its the lyrics that come out of the man's mouth.
Going with Lupe on this one. Eminem says a bunch of stuff cleverly, but that is all it is.......a bunch of stuff. Lupe fiasco really makes you rewind his shit and listen again because if you don't pay attention you'll miss so much secret shit he puts in his rhymes and lines with double and triple entendre. I come back years later and hear new stuff in Lupe's taps that I didn't understand at first
jay-z is a smart man who decided to be a rapper disguised as a hustler i love lupe for his music and i love hov for his music and his business sense to give peiole wat dey wab dat mofukin gansta shiiiiit!
His freestyle is just brilliant. he's a beast in this song, but you just can't compare him with eminem. Eminem's a legend even though Lupe was mind blowing in this one.
1. This is not a freestyle guys... 2. This song is called Lu Myself 3. Em and Lupe have different rap styles... just depends on which one you like better. 4. Don't say Lupe is mainstream. If you think he is then you dont know MUSIC. 5. Lupe's Laser album had a bunch of mainstream songs because his record label, ATLANTIC, pushed him into making those songs. His original songs weren't POP enough apparently...
In no particular order, these are my best either for their flow, their storytelling, their lyricism, their impact on the game or all of the above. Top 10 NAS PAC 3000 BIG LUPE DRE JAY-Z PUBLIC ENEMY EM ERIC B. & RAKIM
you know why this remix was better than the original? because eminem aint even on the same level..this right here, best rapper in the game today. one of the best ever, as a lyricist hes up with biggie and pac.
nope. you just cant contemplate his new style of rapping. He's just growing into a new older and wiser eminem. There are only so many ideas he can come up with, and he doesn't repeat his old shit in his new freestyles like some rappers do. He's a legend.
agreed(this one) agreed(the cool album) agreed(kick,push) agreed(most of his songs) agreed(every song) agreed (hes a prophet) agreed(hip hop saved my life)
lupe is hard as hell right now but people forget how hard em used to snap, specally in a battle...i know it dont seem like it no more but in his prime shady was SICK
best rapper alive. noone alive will ever touch him, AN yes he surpassed NAS an EMINEM. please argue, cause "you dont stand a chance, matter of fact you dont have half the stance too stand if you stood half a chance."
the reason ppl dont think em is lyrically as sound as lupe is probably cuz they dont listen to eminems songs more than a couple times. actually dissect wat hes saying damn
Why is everybody fighting over who's better? Eminem word plays is crazy, Lupe word plays is also good. Eminem make rhymes that connect when you never though it could but Lupe lyrics is more complex, in-depth that you have to listen it over and over to realize what it true mean. Also Lupe can rap about anything without cussing, guns, drugs and etc. At the end of the day, both Lupe and Eminem respects one another.

😮 it’s 2024 and hearing this the first time. I thought I had heard all of Lu’s songs 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Lupe is now without a doubt my all time favorite rapper, idk why he wasnt before
Still rocking this track in 2018
Lu was just freestyling. not trying to out rap your dream husband.
He killed it better than Em
@@adriannerenberg4468 disagree
you mean outrap the most overrated ''rapper'' ?
@M Mollen he didn’t, can’t beat the original
@M Mollen look at you assuming like the asshole you are 👍🏾. I never said he was. I said nothing beats the original, including verses. Get the fuck over it
..Write/Right back like Stan. Genius
vocabulary and flow with lyrics,now that's talent.
Damn!! Lupe's freestyle is almost as good as the original song. And it's a freestyle too. I dont think anyone can freestyle that good. Beast!!
One of my favorite freestyles ever fr been listening since like 2010 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
This track is called "Lu Yourself" for those who don't know. Just sayin. Lupe is fire on this track just like always. Lupe got that sick flow, intellectual lyrics, and powerful statements that no one else has.
"Good news, my foot's loose, my hands are free. So I dance off, footloose and fancy-free."
What a lyrical genius.
INSANE!! Lupe kills all these sick beats!
Did this dude just say "I'm more set/Morrisette than Alanis". That's the beauty of Lupe, you can listen to his lyrics a hundred times and always catch something new when you go back to listen to him. He is wicked with the wordplay
I'm like super late, but that works two ways. More set like Atlantis, legendary city that sank in the ocean cause it wasn't sturdy enough. Like his word play is insane to think about.
"I came back with birds like Brandon Lee. I came back with words and stanzas G! Told yah write back like Stan, I'ma stand till it answers me!"
So sick
9/10ths of the other rappers don't even know what "oscillating" means, nor do their "fans"... see what I did there?
GirlThats Rocco Win
Nice
only thing em is better at than lupe is multisyllable rhyming lol oh and of course, i forgot, battle rapping hahaha. lupe has him beat in everything else.
Eminem's flow, breath control and delivery is better than Lupe's as well. But yeah lyrically Lupe is superior.
well if you say that, what about papoose, P-A-P-O-O-S-E....RAP GOD COMPARISON, ??
Stacy Moore love the pap
no eminem is better than him he is a better storyteller and is able to stick to a topic lupe is too cryptic
B-Mint1994 not flow or delivery
the only rapper who gives me chills
.......much love and respect
"you dont stand a chance, matter of fact, you dont have half the stance to stand if you stood half a chance..like CHA (CHA is half of the word chance), the dance with this man from the CHAs( CHA from ChaCha, the dance) give it up, just abandon plans cause u dont have the stance like an amputee(missing a leg, so u cant stand right..u have half a stance)"
"see,I been lamping,whippin up an answer to these rapprs, who got it backwards like zippin up they pants to pee!"
okay crown this nigga..
Chas is also Chicago housing authority
This was pointed out to me but Lupe is rhyming with the same multi syllabic rhyme scheme throughout most of the song. Internal rhyming with the "-an" and ending his rhymes with "-ee". A lot of people don't realize how impressive this is.
but concentrating and oscillating also rhyme so he did rhyme with oscillating fan which is impressive
@cmtgforever... Lupe uses those double/triple/ even QUADRUPLE meanings. it could man both of things!
Eminem will always be one of my favorite Rappers but Lupe really has Em beat on lyricism, Em just flexes his rhyming skills on a lot of his tracks but Lupe actually has something meaningful and clever to say on most of his tracks.

lupe is the best right now. hes gonna be the best for along time.
I like think Lupe better but I still acknowledge that Ems wordplay and rhyme scheme is off the charts....
No a lot of people don't sit down long enough to look past the beats that lupe gets on, its not the beat the man gets on, its the lyrics that come out of the man's mouth.
yall got it backwards like zipping up pants to pee!
I came back with birds like Brandon Lee *The Crow* Damn Lupe!!!! just stop rappin, you killin the competition!!!!
inhuman god mc.....period...no one will ever rival this man right here...
lupe fiasco = true poet. all them wack rappers callin him weak, just cant flow and spit lyrics like him.
Going with Lupe on this one. Eminem says a bunch of stuff cleverly, but that is all it is.......a bunch of stuff. Lupe fiasco really makes you rewind his shit and listen again because if you don't pay attention you'll miss so much secret shit he puts in his rhymes and lines with double and triple entendre.

Great job cmor
The Fact that this is a freestyle and he owned em is amazing purely gifted

Lupefiasco , along with the game are one of the realist.
"you don't stand a chance

-You dont stand a chance, matter of fact; you dont have HALF the stance to stand if you stood HALF a chance. Omg ... I have shivvers.

His freestyle is just brilliant. he's a beast in this song, but you just can't compare him with eminem. Eminem's a legend even though Lupe was mind blowing in this one.

1. This is not a freestyle guys...
2. This song is called Lu Myself
3. Em and Lupe have different rap styles... just depends on which one you like better.
4. Don't say Lupe is mainstream. If you think he is then you dont know MUSIC.

You don’t stand a chance

Damn Lupe is just too RAW
nope. you just cant contemplate his new style of rapping. He's just growing into a new older and wiser eminem. There are only so many ideas he can come up with, and he doesn't repeat his old shit in his new freestyles like some rappers do. He's a legend.
i shat myself when he said you dont have half the stance to stand if you stood half a chance
Remember that eminem don't freestyle in this song .. Lupe does .. that's cool . The thing i like about lupe is his old school flow .. rocks !

best rapper alive. noone alive will ever touch him, AN yes he surpassed NAS an EMINEM. please argue, cause "you dont stand a chance, matter of fact you dont have half the stance too stand if you stood half a chance."
that shit was the greatest shit of all time
the reason ppl dont think em is lyrically as sound as lupe is probably cuz they dont listen to eminems songs more than a couple times. actually dissect wat hes saying damn
