:lupe:

I still don't believe it. Never heard about Lupe playing any instruments and those aren't drums an amateur can play.
Well not that it matters for back in the day, but I’m pretty sure he producing some of his own music apparently

He did more than play the drums on that album :sas2:

Did he help with them bars tho?! 🤔

Cause that song is one of the best displays of flows I’ve ever heard in my life…probably thee best…🤔🤔🤔🤔

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

I wouldn’t be shocked if Lupe had some input, off the record of course


We don’t talk about that :mjgrin:

The jay slander on this site has to fukin stop man :snoop:

And jay doesn’t need to defend himself against ghostwriting accusations, but it’s even funnier considering he lost his damn mind that summer on his lyrical shyt talkin. Hovi Baby was a progression from Addicted to the Game, Early this Morning, People Watching, Don’t You Know…..

Also he washed Lupe on Pressure :mjtf:The same way he has washed Kweli, Mos, MOP, etc etc

Since Jay is popular nggas want to believe the indie underground fave is better….but then he gets on a track with your indie fave and he bodies them :beli:fukk outta here

That song is actually a perfect illustration of why Lupe aint one of the greats but jay is. :beli:

Lyrical + knowledge is dope :ehh: That’s Lupe

Lyrical + knowledge + relateable is next level. That’s Jay

Lupe ain’t never been relateable. He has no story. Make up characters to rap about brehs

nah I’m sure he didn’t, you getting mad tho is just gonna make nigs keep going tho bruh, lol

I bully the bullies breh, trust me yall will get mad faster than me :pachaha:Lupe ain’t nothin but Canibus with a black belt :pachaha:

Lupe ain't have the breath control to be penning a "Hovi Baby". "Bu, bu it sounfs like Lupe". Ya'll wasn't listening to Lupe in 2002 and you're listening to Lupe later and saying he sounds like Jay conpletely ignoring Jay is one of his biggest influences.

It was kinda messed up that he went to Atlantic thinking Camel was going over there and instead he took Def Jam


It was


But I also think just to be fair, that Atlantic was offering Lupe the best deal at the time. Hov being President would’ve perhaps been the cherry on the sundae but Food & Liquor was still executive produced by Jay-Z and had a Jay feature. An artist on his DEBUT album getting Hov to executive produce and feature on a RIVAL LABEL’s release is a pretty big deal and I doubt its happened since
