Lupe Fiasco with Mike Shinoda- "The Instrumental"

[ean1969]

it sung with jonah matranga not mike sindoa

[breakmaster50]

awsome song!!!

[Moutaineerman58721]

holy fuck this song was on madden lol!

[DBZ4ETERNITY]

@Moutaineerman58721 Yeah and I never noticed that Mike Shinoda was in this piece,wasn't this in Madden 07 ?.

[MovieTheAka]

It`s ma fovourite song!!

[MovieTheAka]

My fovourite song!!!

[RoninShinobi2]

mike produced this song

[AIRADE]

"The Instrumental?!" I swear this song is called "Never Lies!"

[nicwalshy]

you mess

[crazykillerpanda63]

no your wrong

[AIRADE]

LOL. I know that now! Never Lies was what it was called it when was leaked onto the internet illegaly. I'll stop downloading now!

[CaMoyBepeH]

LOL

[JTKumario]

I saw him give a speech here at U of M. Talented, but a tool. He's from my hometown too.

[Emman92]

oh yea, what did he do?!? i haven't met him in real life, but he'a my favorite rapper, and this song is dope.

[fistofthefearless]

lupe > mainstream

[digletniglet]

lupe is mainstream lmao

[fistofthefearless]

i mean he is, but i mean mainstream like 955 the beat u know. lupe deserves MUCH more playtime than he gets.

[digletniglet]

no he doesn't theres a lot more talented rappers than him who get nothing

[fistofthefearless]

yea but i mean, people like Lupe need to replace the generation of rap that relies on fads and styles...not the music itself.

[Ghanoric]

Lupe and Linkin Park need to collaborate

[Nbanuggets3]

yeah they really do

[fistofthefearless]

yo, that would be awesome

both Lupe and Shinoda spittin verses on an instrumental like this...

[megaloman77]

This is a disappointment . . . dun get me wrong, Lupe and Shinoda both kick serious ass, but I was expecting Shinoda to actually rap in this song as well as Lupe . . .

[squall3000]

thats what i hear when i first heard the song. but it grew on me, plus mike oes song "and he never lies" but thats it lmao.

but yea, i still think it is/was good mike was starting to produce tracks for other people!

[TheKyuubiUnleashed]

The guy who says "And He Never Lies" is actually Jonah Matranga. Lol

[squall3000]

in that case...........its still a good song! but...not as good now! lol. didnt know that tho, so thank you :)

[TheKyuubiUnleashed]

No Problem Mayteeeee.

[Aurileus5]

Soulja Boy's beats arent that good. Mike Shinoda's are much better. And what about RZA. I mean he isn't exactly the greatest producer either. However, I DONT think people should shit on him so much. He isn't really hip he is more like a guy who makes catch phrases like "superman that ho". He isnt hip hop but that doesnt mean he is bad. He is just a guy trying to make money. Thats not bad or anything.

[Itachiii]

Stop comparing soulja boy to lupe fiasco.

they make different music. soulja boy is from the south side, lupe is from the westside.

lupe makes conscious hip hop while soulja boy makes music you'd only wanna hear in clubs and dances

[ManUscripted87]

He's from the midwest. Heart of the muthaf#$%^ country. Yeah Lupe > Soulja boy.

[rapboyslim]

yoo,sick beat

any instrumental for dis?????

[annoyingusername01]

shinoda and lupe. most amazing combination

[KH2RULEMYVIDEO]

Soulja Boy sucks man, no skills.

[Ninjamonkey46]

Soulja Boy Stats

Rap Skill -10/5

Beats 100/5

soulja boy total: -10000000/5(excluding beats)

[FatalxPhobia]

Mike shinoda is the shit fuck all the other no talent rappers

[g0zu]

damn good song, mike and lupe what else could you ask for :)

[Baby1Obito]

very nice ^^

[ShootTheStarz]

I loooove this

[HideNSe3K]

Dude, the fuck is wrong with you.

Soulja boy is some talentless peice of shit that got lucky.

Lupe is real music, soulja is just shit.

[14child]

yeah i tottaly agree with you

[Reaper36a]

fuck soulja boy is stupid

[moneyISwallpaper]

hahah TRUUUUUUUE <--- because even soulja boi says SOMEthing like that....

haha

[keosskillz]

soulja boy is a lot of those artists today with no talent jus to do it to put food on the table or jus to get street cred, i mean dont get me wrong his beats are tight and all but can't rap worth shit i cant stand his ass!!!! all i listen is the non commercial stuff now, the radio be killin wayne too much im tired of him now. agents need to look up to artists like these jus to get play back on the map

[Baby1Obito]

[korali666]

[G0TM34T]

He only produces the song, no vocals though.

[korali666]

Mike Shinona is only the Producer of this Song. ;>

[steviemoyne]

[keepitthuggin101]

its about how the radio and t.v. control us and we dont speak our own minds all we do is do wat were told u know to be "cool" so how can we lie if were never using our own words its not us talking at all, its the media that controls us just think of advertising u go buy something u dont need cuz it sounds good thats basically the point he was never himself he just did wat he was told and said he was was told so thats that oh and dont listen to radio cuz remember hip hop isnt on the radio...

[RenandBuckryu]

[2125123]

[strahinje]

mike is good rapper

[oskey22]

Yes, Mike does sing in this song, he does the part were he says "It never Lies" and the piano sound background, also he helped produced the album. This song Kicks ass !

[dotajames]

From Wikipedia:

Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor is Lupe Fiasco's debut album, due to be released on September 19, 2006. The album features Mike Shinoda (Fort Minor frontman) as producer on several tracks, including track 10, The Instrumental, which was incorrectly labeled Never Lies, when it was leaked on the internet.

[oskey22]

So True !

[kart0o]

had the chorus fit in better not been so damn repetative/sketchy this song woulda been real big

[MNVikings89]

its called the instrumental

[supermadvillian]

Mike aint singing. He produced it.And i think its a mental person on about his own head.

[oskey22]

I head he does, He is the one who says "it Never Lies" and the piano background sound -

[Raven332]

Mike Shinoda isn't in the track, and on Food & Liquor the track is called The Instrumental. When the album was leaked on the internet it was called Never Lies, but was retitled The Instrumental when released in stores.

[nodmar]

Mike is the chorus. He's the guy singing Never Lies. ^^

[Raven332]

No, it contains a sample form a rock song called Nestle by Far, Mike Shinoda produced the track, but isn't featured in it.

[nodmar]

Ah thanks for the enlightening ^^

[soyo13deperu]

When i play soccer

i always think about this song

[kz109]

can someone tell me what is he talking bout in the song all i heard

was tht there was a mental guy who is wtching tv in a mental instution xD lolzz

if u know plzz tell me ^-^

[chandamayne]

what is in the box?!?

[FunnyAznPpl]

The box is probaly TV or peer pressure. and on an unrelated note, mike shinoda helped produce and write the song but i don't think he's actually in the song.

[kz109]

i think it means tv

like how he says "every thing the box tell hims to do,everything the box tells him to get he shops and he cops it " sumthng like tht

[BattleonPro23ST]

wat is this song about anyway?

[simm3inho]

very good song:D

[PayableOnDeath123]

[Tmeister123456]

[pancitcant0n]

[DJlucidverse]

I dont care if it's Mike Shinoda, Ryo Takbir, For Minor, M. Shinoda, The Dude From Linkin Park, Or Jonah Matranga, This song, KICKS MAJOR ASS, REGARDLESS OF WHO'S ON THE CHORUS

[YanksChoked2004]

great song

[jdyton]

mike shinoda is mint great song

[igotem16]

Mike Shinoda did the beat...Lupe Spit The Verses & Jonah Mantranga did the chorus...and the song is titled "The Instrumental"

[hollyjoe1]

i love dis song!

[xxxshin0bixxx]

great song!

[AndrewBran]

this is the instrumental ft. fort minor, mike shinoda is in fort minor

[shadowmorman]

are you kidding me, no this is Lupe Fiasco... the vocals are Jonah Matranga. Also, Fort Minor is not just M. Shinoda, it is him, Ryu, Takbir... and any other guest artist they had on their including JONAH MATRANGA!

[xxxshin0bixxx]

dude fort minor is ONE PERSON- MIKE SHINODA. takbir and ryu are from styles of beyond. k

[igotem16]

Fort Monor isnt one person....Fort Minor is Mike Shinoda and the guys from Styles of Beyond...wow!

[MastARMe]

No fort minor is just mike shinoda.

on all songs mike en sob are doing together, it's "Fort Minor feat. Styles of Beyond"

[Elementman]

Technically it is just him but he intentionally called it a project titled Fort Minor because more than just himself contributed to it, its like a movement. But vocally speaking it's just Mike and SOB feature yes

[MastARMe]

yeah true(Y)

[projektmachineshop]

NO THAT"S JONAH something...

Jonah is on Where'd You Go and Red to Black, he is mike's wife's fav singer.

Mike PRODUCED THIS SONG!!!! this song is called the instrumental

[shinnizle19]

i think lupe does the whole rap part, and the refrain is sung by Jonah Matranga.. he also did the backround vocals in the refrain of Fort Minor's "where'd you go"

[shinnizle19]

edit: the song is called "The instrumental" feat. Jonah Matranga

[Chaos157]

this is a good song, but I don't think that is Mike Shinoda. Can someone email me this song at kriptonite157@hotmail

[richmoli]
