is Lupe Fiasco the biggest fraud in the game?

[MINT]

ok lyricist, but he has the worst flow ever

 

[Versa]

I'm no fan of Lupe, but is the OP saying he's a "fraud" because he's not a stereotypical 'street' rapper?

Because the world can be such a dark and evil place that its really hard to believe there's people out there with genuinely good intentions - especially when they were raised in the south side of Chicago.

Im convinced that lupe was actually in them streets and that's why he suddenly changed to positive shyt overnight, he has tons of drugs references in his songs and his man got 44 years shyt doesnt add up

Say word to the nikka that took the rap for me
Free Chill I will, take rap to where nikkas can't conceive
To the point where nikkas can't agree on which song is best
And the argument is if I am better than me
Nope, me and school never agreed
So you can see that Lu never degreed
No fool but the promises of America's educational system
Were insufficient enough to convince him
I'd rather take my chances
And hope it's not enough evidence for a conviction (Breathe)
I push ki like Dragonball Z
You see what I'm sayin'
I'm tryna give you a piece of my mind like Hannibal G
And in the midst of it all make paper like tree
On second thought, make paper like mead
It's all in my notebooks
I hang like coat hook 'round gangbang and those who coke push like Tyrese
(My economy) Lemme make it real for you
The roots of my income is so thin
To those opposed to hustlin'
"Is it solely music?" They question
Till I am embalmed
The end will retire in prom
L.U.P.Empire, F n F productions it's nothin'
nikka please

Lupe is the realist IMO

He acknowledges that he started as a gangsta rapper and didn't grow up listening to backpack rap

Dude just doesn't want to spread negativity

Talks about his past cripticly

This.

After hearing about him trying to talk to Chief Keef it's obvious that part of his past plays a huge part to who he is today.

I used to think his music was corny, but over the years, I realize he probably is one of the best to ever do it. I just think he's frustrates by his situation with the labels and wanting to have complete creative control over his career.

This thread has all kinds of unintentional humor

 

[Dank Hill]

Naw Lupe is straight. I would say the biggest frauds are the ones who like play super goons. Lupe is at least trying to bring something positive to the genre.

 

[Meta4tony]

im saying he's a fraud cause he puts out this positive image but he best friend manager and the guy who founded his label was caught with a 1million dollars
of H there's no way lupe could have not known about , so i think its all a front

go go gadget proves you wrong

 

[Prince.Skeletor]

FnF started up with drug money, yes
but I think he has learned that this was the wrong road and he turned a new leaf
Now he tries to spread positivity, sometimes a little too much of it but I only say that because I've been indoctrinated.

The real frauds and the studio gangstas
