From a lyrics/writing view - Pac can paint a better picture, write better songs, more versatile, better hooks, better existentialist songs, better socio-politic songs, songs that have stood the test of time, songs that are universal, songs that reach different cultures, better poems etc etc

Lupe = The Spike Lee of hiphop

An attention whore who thinks he's deeper than he is.

I know we shyt on Pitchfork but they made a good point in their F&L II review.

The moral of "Ital (Roses)" is a sound one (don't buy what you can't afford), but Lupe can't get the point across with sounding didactic. "It's called being fiscally responsible," goes one especially difficult-to-swallow line. Big Boi, for contrast, hit this same message square on the head years ago on Outkast’s "Aquemini", with a single line that drew both blood and a guffaw: "Let your paper stack, instead of going into overkill/ Pay ya fukkin' beeper bill, bytch." Which one do you think gets through to more people?

This sums up my feelings about him.

How was that a good point? Is Lupe is not entitled to say what he wants HIS WAY?

This here proves the point... The nikka is lyrically dense and cryptic less than 10% of the time. To some Lu fans thats their favorite shyt... And we got fakkets here complainin bout it. But if he doesnt do it then nikkaz complain that he dumbed it down. I swear I cant figure out how some nikkaz manage to turn on a computer much less download an album.

Gotta be the GOAT :blessed:
