video of the year :ohlawd:

thought lupe was going to fall off after lasers and friend of the people

but wasalu the gawd is back and been on a roll he's 4/4

food and liquor 2 is really shaping up to be amazing

young gawd mc that's my lupe :to:

This really shows how good of a song writer he is, I feel this is what's missing from music today. Its crazy how he pieced this song together.

I don't need a message or substance, I just need a song that has a good concept and an interesting topic.

Some rappers like Jay-Z & 99% of Down South rappers only mastered the of art of talking about money, pusssy, and crack.

Nobody tries to write a good song, just mindless music over a good beat. The folks on here says that is all that matters.

Its crazy of all people, Nas & Scarface + Lupe produced songs of the year.

:rudy: @ comparing Jay-Z to 90% of downsouth rappers that only talk about money, cash, hoes
Only shows you don't know his catalog :snoop:

Like he wasn't dropping knowledge on ESOM

"Lights is blinding,
girls need blinders
so they can step out of bounds quick,
the side lines is blind with casualties,
who sipping life casually, then gradually become worse,
don’t bite the apple Eve,
caught up in the in crowd,
now your in-style,
and in the winter gets cold en vogue with your skin out,
the city of sin is a pity on a whim,
good girls gone bad, the cities filled with them,
Mami took a bus trip and now she got her bust out,
everybody ride her, just like a bus route,
Hail Mary to the city your a Virgin,
and Jesus can’t save you life starts when the church ends,
came here for school, graduated to the high life,
ball players, rap stars, addicted to the limelight,
MDMA got you feeling like a champion,
the city never sleeps better slip you a Ambien"


With that said..

Bravo to Lu for trying to uplift "the people"

Video and the song are dope :win:

Looking forward to F&L II

y'all really gassed of this video? seems like hectoring from a pseudo intellectual to black people who have different ideas of blackness from him. i don't necessarily like the grills and scantily dressed hip hop videos as i have gotten older, but i don't think they c00ning cause when i was younger i would have c's it. its just young people being young black people. lupe is a pretentious cat and this song, vs Nas' Daughters show why he will never be Nas. Nas shows humanity to his daughter, Lupe acting holier than thou and better than.

Reasonable Doubt lyrics and concepts were very good and showed what he could do if he didn't dumb down.

Jay-Z said it himself, he dumbed down his rhymes to double his dollars.

I'll admit that made me respect Jay-Z for the first time, because he showed me he respected the culture when he admitted he dumbed down.

My top 5 rappers are Budden, Nas, Scarface, Pac, and Ras Kass. So, I don't need anyone to kick knowledge in their music, but the music has to be a little bit more creative than rhyming about rims and crack.

Lupe killed it, he had a minor fall off but he still has been able to make great music. I'd love to see Kendrick and Lupe work together

After viewing the video, I think it's clear that Lupe had a vision for this maybe before he even wrote the song

:mindblown:

When we first heard the song it was like, "why is he talking to us like this", but it makes perfect sense right now after viewing the video. I'm officially hype for the album now. Wow that was a great video.

I don't understand how it took so many of you to watch the video to understand the song..He explained the concept perfectly without having the visual element...

:comeon:

People understood the song, but his flow was primed for how the video is shown. That's what makes it better IMO.

if you're going to categorize Jay-Z as only money,drugs and hoes then you might
as well put Nas in there too. He has tons of similar content, especially on the "Life is Good" album, but I see you're trolling so continue on.
