Lupe says Drogmas will cement him as a top 3 rapper post 1995

[altruicsense]

twitter rants never end well.

Lupe speaking truth though.... but damn when will rappers learn taht we just want music..

 

[mobbinfms]

Think of it this way, if Aesop wasn't dope, he probably wouldn't be in Lupe's (one of the lyrically greatest) top 3

I gave him a shot over a decade ago. It's not for me

Bruh, I was going back through Jay's shyt ... this nikka has been consistently on and off quality-wise with his albums since 2001...

The Blueprint is classic
BP2 had some dope shyt on there but is all around a mess
Black Album is hot
Kingdom Come is hot garbage
American Gangster is hot
BP3 is not
MCHG is hot garbage

He kinda broke the pattern there with Magna Carter, and dropped back to back duds...

Not to mention Lupe ate this nikka alive on his debut album

Even on RD, Volume 1, 2, and 3 Jay had questionable moments.

When you're speaking on lyrics and bar for bar I can't really think of anyone competing with Lu. And everyone talking about Lu can't make songs is full of it. Dude is a great songwriter. They're favorite rapper couldn't make a song as good as Adoration of the magi, American terrorist, the cool, put you on game, Audubon ballroom, or all black everything.

And song for song career wise I would definitely put Lupe against any of their best stuff.

Bar for bar lyric for lyric I'm putting Lupe above both of their stuff.

Lu fans are VERY delusional about that pressure feature. Jay-z ate that nikkas lunch and it was 2 verses to 1

I agree with you on Jay's consistency but you gotta go back way farther than 2001 to 1997's vol 1
Then go to 1999's vol 3

J Cole and Game/Nas comparison Lupe made was

Lol Lupe put Hov in a body bag. 2nd verse wasn't even needed but he did it anyway

"It's hella proper, sag so low you can see boxer, like a boxer's
That's the way that the family's pants worn
Don't be sly, and try to put 'em on
The stones in the pocket'll drag ya down to Davy Jones' locker"

That wordplay, the triple entendre on "sly"

Nah.

Peep this:

Take Care is classic, he has many classic songs, moments, tours, features.

 

[ISO]

Peep this:

Take Care is a better piece of music than any Lupe album and definitely has classic songs, moments, tours, and features. Just a bigger release for the culture on all fronts.

Don't make this shyt about Drake...

Y'all nikkas always bring up these Lupe songs nobody cares about. F&L was good not great. The Cool was good not great. My original claim was Lupe lacks the quotables, voice, flow, charisma to even be mentioned with Nas and Jay even if y'all like to say he's a hybrid of both. The Coli is the only place I see Lupe put at a pedestal like this.

 

[Stone]

Lupe is a talented writer but I don't really care to hear him rap.

 

[NoHalfWay]

Take Care is a better piece of music than any Lupe album

Ok bruh, you got it.

 

[Versa]

Peep this:

I already be knowing. nikkas be talking out their ass when it comes to Lupe a lot.

nikka is weird AF. nikka is annoying on Twitter. nikka never makes things simple for himself. But nikka also nicer than all these nikkas on the mic. It is what it is.

Uh....nah. To say that is to suggest Lupe's opinion is infallible....and fukk that.

Aesop Rock was dope at one point, now he just rambles mostly artsy sounding nonsense. And before people come in here talking about I'm not a fan, I was copping music directly from dude back when nobody knew who he was and he was selling "Appleseed" out of his apartment.

DOOM I can understand, dude raps unorthodox as fukk but is still nice with it. But Aesop Rock in 2016....

Fred.
