Lupe Fiasco: Greatest Rapper Ever?

[Bboystyle]

Put You On Game IS ONE OF THE DOPEST SONGS. Cant hate on anyone putting Lupe up there

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

You ain't even vote for Obama

Why did that stop you?

This was well into Barry O's first term where he had proven that he was legit and was getting hate from all the white racists. I was trying to figure out why a brotha would be going at his head given the circumstances.

As a lyricist, he's very elite.

However, as a well rounded emcee and in terms of catalog, I have quite a few rappers ranked above him.

I wouldn't rank Lupe above Ghostface for example even though he's technically a better lyricist than him.

You are an intelligent individual.

Lupe is arguably the best when it comes to lyrics (alone). Why does the mention of anything positive regarding Lupe make so many people insecure? Is it because you have to go to Harvard to be a Lupe stan?

I think that’s it…it seems like they’re mad that they don’t catch his shyt and instead of just admitting that it’s over their heads they’d rather just bash him/ hate him for it, lol. Insecurity type shyt…he makes them feel stupid and makes their favorite rappers sound madd human and regular, lol

Yup. Makes their favorite sound regular degular. Especially certain rappers who actually are regular. Not naming no names... the great part of that video is OP is that they had Em stans admitting. And it's hard AF to get them to admit someone is better lyrically. Imagine being someone like that Ocean herb in this thread having to defend NYSOM and that collection of average bars against Mural, it's gonna get frustrating

But when Lupe did “dumb it down” they used it as a weapon against him to say he fell off..

Damned if you do, damned if you dont.

 

[It is a mystery]

A lupe thread doesn't feel right without billy ocean having the most posts in it
