GZA also for me he's the epitome of the saying "it ain't what you say but how you say it"

I like Lupe but Gza and it's not close.

"Make it brief son, half short and twice strong"

He addressed the Lupes years before they came out :russ:

Lupe is very clever, but Gza is a genius.

I like Lupe Fiasco and I think he should be an example for these young dudes, because he has lyrics, can tell a great story and can capture you. He's not on the bullshyt, he's himself.- GZA

GZA for me personally. Lupe is good of course but he could never hold my attention long enough. I would like to get into him more if I could. Royce better too.
Same for me

I like Lupe too :yeshrug:

And I love GZA and think he’s one of the greatest ever.

But let’s keep it a buck. Only a few us actually listen to both and can actually make logical comparisons.

😂 my guy made this thread knowing it’ll be a GZA love fest and a Lupe bash. But in reality they’re two of the best all time

In this thread Lupe Fiasco predictably got the most votes.

Anyone who sincerely believes that there is a bias AGAINST Lupe in the booth
isn't being honest about the state of discourse/discussion in The Booth.

The entirety of The Coli champions Nas and Lupe Fiasco above just about anyone
else. These two are The Coli's heroes, the other two rappers who still get a lot of burn
are Kid Cudi and strangely Charles Hamilton.

It shows that the posters on here are largely in their late 20s/early 30s and/or trend much
older. :yeshrug:

You don't pay attention. This is a Nas/Wu/Prodigy board. Buncha weirdos here :manny:

Maybe people champion them two specifically because they’re really two of the greatest to ever do it, objectively. Just maybe tho, I could be trippin. 🤷🏽‍♂️

And Wu is super loved in here, much more than Lupe from what I’ve seen. Even the posts in here seem a lot more pro Gza than Lupe, I’m surprised people actually kept it a Buck with the poll…so far
