- idk what to talk about here no more although I will say that I should've talked about Dumb It Down a little more than I did idk.... also idk this prolly not the video I should've done
anyways down here however.... I just made my first short story or at least the first draft of it - Ігри
Lupe’s verse on touch the sky is LEGENDARY
One of the greatest hiphop verses of all time ngl
Facts legit a star is born moment
I wish that should have been Lupe’s track and was added on to Food & Liquor, he was the perfect fit to that song and the way he was rapping on it was ridiculous with so much wordplay and inner rhyme schemes 🔥
He was the kendrick of his time.
he was supposed to be the next nas and to a certain point he was
@@KingBenny he was more of de la for me
Lupe also had a great mixtape run and was on Shinoda’s Fort Minor mixtape on 2 songs. And one of those few rappers to ride in on the streetwear wave. Was a great start.
I think Lu’s main problems were exacerbated once Chilli was gone. He’s principled and surprisingly standoff-ish, not great with the 360 drama. And then his weird left turns kept throwing people off.
The 360 shit killed label backing. The Obama drama cut his sponsorship legs out. Lasers being his poppy album after the huge wait left fans lost, and then F&L2 felt preachily political. Totally overshadowed the actual quality of the content.
Mural should be studied on a collegiate level
tbh i dont even think I get that song the whole way through as I should do
@@KingBenny Lupe literally paints a picture. Textures and tones, you see it. Go to @timesNuroman lyrical breakdown. As you seek, you shall find. 🙂
@@melaninycee672 yeah it describes a painting in form of rap
I remember being in pacsun in like 2007, I heard Daydreaming and left there immediately to buy the album. He got a lot of shit for kick push for posing but the talent couldn't be denied. Great video.
Ngl I've seen a lot of ppl say kick push inspired them to skate... I always though ppl who hated on kick push were weirdos
He wasn't posing though. He wasnt telling his story. Lupe explains in the 1hood interview.
@@ImInYourBrains yes it was a track for his friends not about him
Loved him back in the day. Need to go back and listen his stuff
very good video, i’ve known about lupe for a while and even own Lasers but this video makes me a lot more interested in who he is
You own lasers? On CD?
Pais, Tokyo by Lupe fiasco is a great song
Idk... I never rly liked it... someone would have to explain what makes it special ngl
@@KingBenny great story telling the beat is magical. I would say it’s the perfect song
@@KingBenny it shows a side of a black man who leaves his town to explore the world and enjoy violence free life watching wonders yet never leaving his roots as shown with line "for love for motherland"
Lupe is the goat, still pumping out the best stuff
I rock with Drill music in zion... but Autoboto is trash to me
@@KingBenny as a lupe fan i agree Autoboto is not his type of thing
The Lasers era was wild. I feel like Lupe grew and his label wanted him stuck making gummy pop and he wanted to make a another badass radical album like his first two were.
Daydreaming a CLASSIC
Daydreamin is def top tier
Facts ❤🎉
only og knows the title was how lupe fiasco became a superstar
Yeah but ppl weren't on the fucking video so i gotta dumb shit like change the title and thumbnail
lupe is legendary 🔥
one of my fav rappers of all time
Me too
YOU ARE TELLING ME LUPE FIASCO WAS SUPPOSEF TO BASICALLY HAVE B.O.B TWO BIGGEST HITS???
Yes... there's probably even more hits lupe was supposed to have lol but that I know of those two were meant for lupe
Just found your channel, awesome video! and ofc Daydreamin won the grammy, epic sample and it got the legendary jill scott on it, i mean she wrote parts of "you got me" from the roots.
Thank you! Yeah shoutout Lupe
oh em gee i didn't even realize this just came out. lupe is 2 good.
Lupe is a LEGEND
In my opinion The cool is lupe's best song
I like Hurt me soul more but respectable pick tbh
mural is his best
In highschool, he was my favorite rapper
he was one of my favs for sure
Hustler's and customers, lupe's hardest song
Personally I like hurt me soul best
This video is awesome on Lupe 🔥 🔥
Thank you! Shoutout Lupe
The Show Goes On was a diss to Atlantic so seeing Lyor bumping it on a boom box is hilarious 🤣
That's why Lupe the goat
day 2 of reminding you that T.I. is insanely underrated nowadays and would be a great video topic
Now imma be honest... idk you was gonna do this everyday but I respect it
@@KingBenny I have reminders set on my phone :)
drill music in zion!
am i tripping or is that “The Eraser” playing the in the back at 4:50? @king
Not tripping... I played it cause of the lupe kanye and Pharrell song called us placers
what is the name of the outro song?
J dilla - Life
I recommend “Everybody’s on Fire” by Mohawk Lodge. Very underrated band and song imo.
ill check it out if i got time
@@KingBenny also Travis Thompson. He’s a Native Rapper from the west coast. As a Native myself it was good seeing our people get some exposure lol. He’s definitely got a very interesting flow and sound.
Prolly should change the outro card now ngl😬
tbh... i've been thinking ab that shit for a while but I'm just lazy
SHOUTOUT MESSI
Shoutout messi fr
A Madlib produced album fixes everything as GZA predicted back in the day LABELS SUCK
K B G!!!!!!
i would repeat your name but your name outta pocket
If his label wasn't such a big dick making him do shit for the radio, that didn't work. Like redoing the hook for some songs OVER 60 TIMES
first
Shut up
You were indeed first
Chill out on my boy
First
Ngl mamba... you wasn't first
@@KingBenny lol damn this nigga a superstar 😂
Lmao... you was second tho
