Lupe underachieved and still has an argument for top 10 all time

ALL CAPS when you spell the man name! So I know you’re not serious
If you heard one Gibbs album you’ve heard them all. He isn’t on the tier Lu is or has had the impact or influence.
F&F mixtapes
F&L
The cool
T&Y
Drogas wave
Drill music in Zion
Samurai
Nothing Freddie has made comes close to the creativity and raps Lu has.

The Cool is his best album and that's a 7.5/10 at best.

Not just the hooks and beats. The songwriting in general is trash.
And some of the flows are off, doesn't even respect the 5 rules that make a flow good.

Top 10? nikkas isn’t top 100
I mean, he's top 100 for sure...but he got one of the worst catalogs for a "respected rapper"

with the aid of the Funk...
eh, I'd say they are equal. Gibbs has early mixtapes too. Lupe at his best blows Gibbs out of the water in regards to concepts for songs and vocabulary but until his last few projects Lupe had a tendency to drop bloated albums. Freddie doesn't have anything as bad as Lazers. I'd rather listen to Bandana than any Lupe album besides T&Y, Samurai or Drogas Wave and even DW got a few songs I don't like. Wav Files >>> any Freddie song. If he could keep that consistency over an entire album he'd the fukkin GOAT.

If we just going off impact and influence Young Thug > Lupe
I’m happy you have an opinion
Y’all care too much about what other people think lol I can’t live my life that way
@ the bold- T&Y is his best album and that came at the tail end of his career.
- Nas legacy was already set in stone. As a Nas stan that hit boy run could completely disappear and I wouldn't notice.
- As a Canibus fan, the comparisons are off base as fukk, artistically, commercally, everything.
Cambatta reminds me more of Bis without the initial fanfare.
I think drogus wave is his best album personally but I agree

Naw it’s not he has 3 albums I don’t run back like that, but has 5 mixtapes and 3 classics imo (F&L, TC, T&Y) and drogas wave, samurai, and DMIZ albums that are great to classic status.
That’s a hell of body of work. Same way I feel Jay has Vol2, those 2 r Kelly albums, kingdom come, Magna Carta bs, and dynasty album I never run like that he also has 3 classics (RD, BP, WTT) to 6-7 great to albums.
Those few duds don’t discount the amount of greatness in their discography. Plus they rap at a higher levels than their contemporaries and it’s not close.
Lupe >>> Gibbs and no disrespect to DOOM
