Let it be known- I love this song. I love lupe. But this is not him at all. This is Sarah Greene and my boy gemstones. The full track has rhyme verses from gemstone and the chous with Sarah. They are all from my home of Chicago and I have some of their underground albums. Same title, but an awesome rap. Check it out.
I think this is by far one of the best blends of quality hip-hop n alternative music. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DOING LUPE. I am currently trying to spread the word bout a band named 'Maxcoldd' with certain similar qualities in their songs and instrumentals. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE visit my channel to lend them your ears. COMMENT, SUBSCRIBE IF IT SUITS YOU, and as always constructive criticism is always welcomed. LUPE keep doing what u doing.
While recording The Cool, Fiasco's father died of type II diabetes and his business partner, Charles "Chilly" Patton, was convicted of attempting to supply heroin and was sentenced to 44 years in prison.
This is, and when i say this, i mean it, this is the only song that has made me cry, i love Lupe's music and him (No homo) but still, this is music people can relate to
Nearly everyone's lost someone important in their lives, the lines "If we can build a ladder that tall (To reach heaven) to come up and see you, we would, coz' we down here, and we miss you"
Lupe, you literatly have, and i mean it, you literatly have made realness something people can reach, even though we live in this world.
Such simple yet powerful lyrics, a very inspiring concept. It reminds me to of my grandfather who has passed away a few years ago, it reminds me of mentally handicapped people who could very well be good people but you will never know and it's sad becuase of it, it reminds me of those living in poverty those people that have potential to do great things in the world. Furthermore, it reminds me to use my life to its fullest potential possible.
i think some one mixed it like that because the girls part was incomplete you can hear a spot in the music the doesn't completely mesh plus a slight tick where it repeats each time
ahh i get so freaking inspired when i hear this. i just want to be on james baldwin and maya angelou level when writing, on lupe's level when rapping, and on jennifer hudson's level of singing. i feel like the impossible can be done when i hear this song! It also reminds me of my nanna who died in 2005. i will forever love her. and i know she's always with me, encouraging me to be the greatest because she was such an amazing person herself. Peace. Love. Vision. Empowerment. Free Chilly
this goes out to my mom who fought lung cancer for 2 years!!! rest in peace, didnt like seeing you suffering like you was, but now u can finally rest, always love you!!!! always!!!!

Its Charles Patton aka Chilly who is serving 40 years in jail for possession of a shit load of cocaine. Chilly was Lupe's best friend and the executive producer of all of his album and mixtapes till he got locked up.
he was on parole until the jury had a vertic,and he was found guilty for drug trafficking,an got 44 years in prison,its a chance he can get anthor case an get out
for you and all of your lil haters out there, lupe didnt make this for all the listeners or fans. He doesn't care about what anyone else thinks so your better off leavin your opinion to yourself cause he made this strictly for Charles Chilly Patton his dearest friend who was sentenced 44 years in jail for possesion of about 4 lbs. of cocaine and attempt to sell it.... bottom line lupe doesnt care what anyone thinks about this song besides Chilly
This comment has received too many negative votesshow

This song talks about freeing his music partner who got sentenced to 44 years in prison on posession of heroin. His name was charles patton and his nickname was chilly. so this song is talking about freeing his friend
Rujabes...platinum days are over unless you appeal to teeny boppers.
It's sad but true. Honestly, now and days, if you are making music for money...it's just not going to work. That's the wrong reason to be making music in the first place, imo. I have a feeling Lupe is one of those who writes music because it's stuff he needs to get off of his chest. Not to make money. If it was about money, he would be talking about it.
Tha Carter 2 & 3, Graduation, and American Gangster are all platinum (most are double). It happens a lot.
But if you make a song that sells well on the ringtone market, it really doesn't matter how good it is. That's why so many gangsta rappers today get the money to rent the mansions and jets you see in their music videos.
Lupe is a fantastic rapper. I'm just sad to see him go, and I hope his departure couldn't be as easily solved as just buying his album.
I love Lupe, and this song as well. I'm just tired of his entire album being placed on Youtube so FREQUENTLY. This is seriously like the 50th time this has happened, and I'm not sure if there's an organized effort for redundancy, or if it's just a genuine act of ignorant goodwill on your part. If it's the former, please pass on the message to the group to stop reposting the entire album. If it's the latter, you're not the first to post the entire album. No wonder we only got one more album left.
I figured as much and I think that's great that you want to spread the word. It just seems more productive, especially several months after the album's release, to just tell people about him, than to post the whole album online. My point being; it's not difficult at all to simply rip audio from Youtube. And if, or rather when, people do that, record sales won't be stimulated, and Lupe will have less reason to make more music in general. After 9 months, The Cool is just now gold, which is sad.
hes rapping about the truth. he hates hip-hop for the simply reason that main stream rappers and rappers rapping on that ol' bullshit about stuntin and such get all the props and what not not over the money...
You just said Lupe "hates hip-hop". That's stupid.
He doesn't hate hip-hop, he just criticizes gangsta rap, which is great. Frankly, a lot of people do that too. Kanye even did that in "Everything I Am", and a few months later, "Put On" came out.
What makes Lupe unique is his creativity.
In BET terms, he's like Lil Wayne minus the weed and with an education.
Lupe DOES care about money. It's his JOB. Who wouldn't care about money? The brother isn't a monk. He gotta eat too.
Well, he even said in one of his songs he use to hate hip-hop, because of the disrespecting of women. Also, when he heard NWA when he was younger, he thought it was pretty harsh. Well, he "used" to hate hip-hop.
Yo it's crazy that you said that you said that cause that's the point I be trying to stress to to ppl rap is just straight dumb music with no heart and soul but Hip hop has a point
