Lupe Fiasco: emperors soundtrack

[NoUsernameDisplayed]

Lupe is one of the best? what?? Lupe is the best!

[zitzblitz123]

man its like upe is fighting a sub boss in this song before the last level a.k.a the last song which is kick push 2 where he has to fight the last boss a.k.a the last beat dope song

[HND0]

He dove within the blood of his ancestors Through it it cleanse his soul Unlocks the grasp of the devil's hold There goes the key he swallowed... Hollow As hell As it made his blood boil So he rose from beneath the depths Anchored his bare foot upon heaven's soil Let the blood seep through that soil And watch as the roots, from the stems, to the petals of the flowers sprout Ummmm Now en hail the sweet aroma From the perfumes As it entwine with the colognes

[HND0]

Lupe Fiasco IS BETTER than lil wayne. FUCK what anyone else says!

[DTate1922]

i told you i would show up screamin out fnf til the world blow up

love you lupe

[vansman93wow]

my favorite song by lupe fiasco

its just to fuckin amazing

like i dont know how he could of

made such a perfect song

100 on a scale of 1 to 10

[cr3am]

"With fifteen in the clip and one in the hole

Hallway wall full of bricks, only some of us know."

I don't usually prefer listenin to Lupe, but this one went toooo deep, he went in.

Beat was mean as fuck also.

100.

[meleeking]

Lupe my favorite rapper not just cuz he a genius but cuz he spits life

[RomieRomeRules]

i told you i would show up, screamin out "F & F" till the world blow up. Lupe is just, too cold. Who else strats a song like this?? Not lil wayne!!!

[TheGame78787878]

the man is a genius

[LOOKSHARP870]

this tune is awesome

[ripmeast21]

I be listening to this song all day here at Sherwood

[brose333]

"my insane brain

my 32 teeth and 2 feet

creep like its elm street"

wow.......u cant say he didnt go in on this

gotta love lu

[jesusbuddy]

Here we are now, entertain us

Change don't change us

Ever since the game trained us

We came up like worms in the rain

I dream my chain became a loose noose that was used to hang us

So now, my insane brain, my 32 teeth

And two feet creep like its Elm Street

[gamer3425]

Lupe is one of the best. People don't see it because if it isn't about hoes, cars, or money, they don't want to hear it. I'm only 14 and I understand what real hip-hop is. That's a shame.

[sheesho777]

dude im 15 and amen to what you said

[bigman32193]

its actually about wat appeals to them. different forms of music capture the ears of ppl.lupe is the truth, but it doesnt require dissin the hoe/car/money rap. if thats wat ppl wanna hear, then let it be. then again, some ppl like jammin to the real hiphop.

[EMC85042]

"I author like DW's brother like a hustler God place me in ya armour, I prescibe no partners"

I love how he can reference anything in his songs, and have it make sense. Still love Food and Liquor even after two years, and The Cool too, but to a much lesser degree. Food & Liquor was just full of soul. This track is a perfect example of it too.

[kingmanmillenia]

i totally agree about the soul, lupe KILLED IT in this one. this one of those songs that if i had to come after him i would go ahead and hang the mic up until i could coe with something this hard. aaaaaaaannnnnndddddddd its like he's not even trying

[kazooie123456]

I think the first few lines and the chorus are the best

"only fear god, not the weapons of the weak or the weakness of the heart"

"i told you i would show up screaming out FNF till the world blow up, they said i was so finished i told em its show business mean theres no business since Fiasco's init"

[clayboy426]

the only thing i know is that this is one of the best songs ever. i listen to it all the damn time. Anf i have a couple.

"I put it on my grand mama's daughter"

"I dream my chain became a loose noose that was used to hang us"

[blazey20]

So now, my insane brain, my 32 teeth

And two feet creep like its Elm Stre

[LP9PK]

Ok everyone, I want to see what your favourite line from this song is so post it. It's hard to choose but i think I'm going with "Only time we quiver like a archer is".

[Poozlelover]

"I do it for the hood like a parka."

[ponita123]

yelll

FNF UP TIL I DIE

I LOVE LUPE

LUPE AND NAS 4EVER AND EVER

[bigishsmallishblack]

i would quote a line from this song but id have to write down all the lyrics because its just that amazing!

lupe is a lyrical genius

lupe you never let me down FnF UP !

[shakeil999]

best lupe song ever.....my favourite fuh life

[finalcutter91]

And tell my niggas not to shiver

Only time we quiver like a archer is

Here we are now, entertain us

Change don't change us

Ever since the game trained us

We came up like worms in the rain

I dream my chain became a loose noose that was used to hang us

So now, my insane brain, my 32 teeth

And two feet creep like its Elm Stre

lupe is unreal

[jrp1289]

i'm pretty sure he's saying "here we are now, entertainers" not "entertain us"

[9079436]

Nope "entertain us"

[guttaville]

is there an instrumental for this beat?

[explainyourself]

This is definitely inspired by his Islamic identity. "We only fear God"......."God place me in your armour I'll prescribe no partners" The best rappers have always been inspired by or been Muslim.

[healedbygod]

sorry dont agree with that at all. not all good rappers have to be or be inspired by islam thats just complete generalisation

[RealRapHere]

Most are, Tupac has an Arabic Name Pete rock and C.l Smooth were Sunnis, Lupe is a proud muslim.

Islam 4 Life

[AkiM0To]

lupes amazing you have to admit it :D

[DeDahlPe]

Muslims don't fear Allah

[Stinkman92]

"Muslims don't fear Allah"

Yes we do.

[Chopstick215]

"We came up like worms in the rain"

damn lupe is sick as hell. it's a shame that's he's retiring after 1 more album.

[anegheadinc]

I put it on my grandmother's daughter. unreal I biggie II pac III Big L IV Lupe V Jay VI Nas VII mos VIII Raekwon IIX  Blackstar IX tribe X Canibus

[emailman712]

"I put it on the bars like beernuts"

RAW

[DevilsDogs]

It took me a while to like this song. But now I made this song my theme.

Only fear God

Know the weapons of the weak

The weakness of the hard

And never fall asleep

[aidos5]

No love for Pete Rock?

[Virus284]

"I put on my Grandmama's daughter" This dude is amazing and this beat is just off da chain

[DJjay01]

Lupe is a lyrical genius

[OurMusik]

i need the intrusmental to this

[killakace]

Steadfast44 its not "Only time we quiver like a archer"... its "tell my ni**** not to shiver only tell em quiver like an archer

[AngeloPinoy]

what's the album called

[DJjay01]

Lupe fiascos : Food and liquor

[Steadfast44]

"Only time we quiver like a archer"....thats slick...I love this song

[blazey20]

When he says "Heart colder that Edys/Idi's"

Is he talkin about Edys Ice cream Or Idi Amin?

[Steadfast44]

The Ice cream

[blazey20]

Thanks man

[thegoldenhero]

Although we disagree i respect your opinion

[thegoldenhero]

Rappers better than Wayne that are still livin not in order Eminem Nas Jay Z Prodigy Styles P Lloyd Banks Young Buck Papoose Lupe Fiasco Andre 3000 Talib Kweli Mos Def

[surGeonGG]

Wouldn't it be easier to list the rappers worse than Wayne?

[chrispeace512]

I disagree with Young Buck and Lloyd Banks being on that list. I don't kno who Prodigy or Talib Kweli is and I don't listen to Andre 3000, but Weezy still sucks either way.

[Drizz040392]

u dont know who talib is? step up ur rap game man, hes a legend and nastier than anyone u prolly listen to

[Virus284]

Dude you are absolutely reight Talib Kweli is sweeter tan all these Rick rosses and all these Lil waynes he is honestly one of the sweetest rappers in the world I mean if u want just a sample listen to like that by Black eyed peas "So many damn rappers there's a cypher in heaven

My tongue is a weapon and plus when I bust its the stuff of legend come on dude lil wayne could nvr say somethin like dat

[BeatMonarchs]

how about you add

saigon

obie trice

pusha t

bishop lamont

[thegoldenhero]

Don't really listen to Saigon i forgot to mention Obie never heard of Pusha T and i am not a fan of Bishop Lamont.

[Steadfast44]

Pusha T is half of the group called the Clipse

[yeaboymanidude]

replace styles P with DR Dre Young Buck with Immortal Technique and Lloyd banks with Danger Doom

[G36Ckilla]

Immortal tech

Necro

DMX

fuck even 50 is better then wayne nigga ketchup

[rowejam072000]

LOL...u right

[OneNationFunkHipHop]

shit, the nigga sold 1,000,000 albums in a week. he must be doing something right.

[thepagemasterjr]

thats publicity he sold under 1milli

[Underdogjoe]

u forgot Immortal Technique and Aesop Rock

[thegoldenhero]

To TX King Eminem would demolish Wayne. You talk about spittin the truth when has Wayne done such??? like i said Wayne is by far the most over rated rapper today you just compared him to Lupe Fiasco that right there is sad enough. Lupe wayy over Wayne and the dudes i listed would kill Wayne on any beat plus have you listen to Wayne i mean he has flow he works hard but despite that he is no where close to being the best lyricist out there i mean he is just the hottest rapper i the game.

[TXkingMN]

emienm has lame songs like ass like that,shake that ass,without me, n others n wayne the best u can say is lollipop wen that song is a top chart wayne is way better lyricly then its jeezy he talk the truth eminem IS top 5 rappers of all time top five but jay z said it himself wayne top 5 of all time

PAC

BIGGIE

JAY Z

WAYNE

EM

[thegoldenhero]

That has to be the most shittiest list. Pac made the biggest impact but is not the best Biggie better than Pac lyrically but Pac was a better storyteller and made a bigger impact on hip hop. Wayne aint fucking with Eminem are you nuts on crack!?! Plus where Big L i seriously think he deserves a spot seeing you know his music alot realer and more lyrically gifted than him. Man i still can't believe what i am reading i mean my list down there shows the rappers that are better than Wayne.

[thegoldenhero]

Bobby Creekwater

Obie Trice

JR Writer

Gemstones

Canibus

Rakim

Serius Jones

theres more.

[jazz101sofly]

i dnt like dat serious jones raps so slow like hes talkin almost..u shud wtch serious jones versus jin

[thegoldenhero]

Serius Jones is good enough to be better than Wayne. plus his songs are good he got flow and lyrics he could get better though.

[yeaboymanidude]

fuck cannibus and JR

[Virus284]

Dude definitely Wayne is not the greatest he just came out soundin like he had somethin stuck in his throat and everybody went haywire he aint really all that sweet in the first place I say get off his jock and start listening to some real Mcs like Rakim I don't know why he aint on the list or Nas Lupe Luda Pac and some on shoot even Andre 3000 would eat Wayne alive and Big Boi

[Drizz040392]

there is no point in saying "even andre stacks" cuz he eats one of the top ever

[Virus284]

Whoa there yo list is all wrong one Jay Z should not be up there at all take him down two Wayne should not be up there take him down I'll show you the list and one is not better than two it's just a list of all the equal strengths

Pac

Rakim

Em

Lupe

Nas

etc

p.s. I'm only 14 with the knowledge of a 30 year old

[Drizz040392]

my list- 1- Lupe Fiasco 2-Eminem 3-Big L 4-Biggie 5-Nas 6-Jay-Z 7-Mos Def 8-R.A. The Rugged Man 9-Black Thought (From The Roots) 10-Andre 3000 ill give u exact reasons if u msg me, and the only reason i didnt put Talib in is b/c however amount of skill he has, to me, i see him as a top ten poets(lyrcial-wise), but with all the other aspects in "rapping", the names i put digest Talib up, no disrespect, i am a big fan of him, and i dont expect u to agree, just voicing my opinion

[DahrChe]

wherez pac n common

[Drizz040392]

well not denying any skills, even how ever amazing pac was, he was hyped off his death, and he was great, but keep in mind this is my point of who i think is the best of the best, even tho pac is really the poster-boy for rap...and i judge off the entire rapping they did, common whether ppl believe it or not, has fallen off, and isnt even the same anymore, u cant really identify it, but its more as if hes preaching, and keep in mind surface to main stream changes the best of them

[Virus284]

Naw dats kool yo opinion counts But like my top 10 I'd have to say would be Pac Rakim EM Lupe Nas Andre 3000 Mike Shinoda Mos Def Black thought (u rite) Talib Kweli 2 me none of em are btr I got love for all of em

[Drizz040392]

thats a really interesting list, can i ask why mike shinoda from linkin park is there?

[Virus284]

Well I like the way he rhymes he reminds me of Lupe and mainly bcuz of High voltage Forgotten remix and like just a bunch of other songs

[blazey20]

I would simply like to know if Canibus is on thiS list?

[beastvin]

TXkingMN...you just say Eminem isnt lyrical??..He don't speak the truth??You the same dude that said Weezy is the best lyricist??..You really need to listen to some hip hop...SMH

[TXkingMN]

hip hop is dead n wayne is the doctor he revived it

[thegoldenhero]

Hell not hardly dude Hip Hop still resting waiting for real nigga not a small nigga acting hard. Papoose, Lupe etc.

[thegoldenhero]

i do have respect i got mad respect for one of the greatest.

[thegoldenhero]

2pac is mad over rated he was not the best lyricist he just was a great storyteller in his songs and they always had a message.

[TXkingMN]

maybe but wen u talk bout pac u cant say shit like that respect him even though i agree

[justkickit]

nr 1!

[running911]

lupe is the best lyricist rite now, all these rappers make me sick. 50, lil wayne, soulja boy, they all suck i hate rappers who rap about ho's n drinking. that kind of rap makes ppl in the ghetto think that is the goal of life. lupe, kayne, tupac. eminiem, and nwa and common represent real rap. rap that tells truth and gives hope

[bzup9mm]

true....but kanye has done MANY tracks regardging that type of music that you hate.And since apparently you like the same style of rap as i do,you should check out artisits such as mos-def,talib kweli elzhi krs-1 etc.And personally MY top 3 *lyricist*are:

Tupac

nas

lupe fiasco.

[Virus284]

You are right my fav lyricists are

Lupe

2pac

Nas

Talib Kweli

Rakim

Papoose

[TXkingMN]

eminem gives hope he has stupid songs bout drinking to n ho's lil wayne is the best lyricist he has murder verses plus young jeezy is the truth he hood talk bout the trap

[thegoldenhero]

TXking did you just utter the words that Wayne is the best lyricist are you crazy!?! he is the hottest rapper but lyrically he aint fuckin with alot of other people

[TXkingMN]

lyricly wayne the best listen to hustler muzik , pray to the lord, skys the limit ect ect i can go all day he is a overral rapper the best lupe cant be the best cuz he hasnt dont much but still one of my fav rappers

[thegoldenhero]

Lyrically Wayne aint shit. Just cause Lupe hasn not put as much work doesn't change the fact that he is wayyyy better than Wayne in every level. Plus guys like Kool G Rap, Papoose, JR Writer, Styles P, Lloyd Banks, Nas, Jay Z, Eminem,Biggie, Big L, Talib Kweli, Young Buck, Gemstones etc theres alot more man. Lyrically Wayne is over rated but maybe he can flow on a track but please to not confuse that with lyrical ability.

[TXkingMN]

listen to carter 3 thats lyricly he a beast but u know wat im tired of gettin reply bout how wayne suks n im wrong im just sayin my opinion so r u but theres no need to start acting like a bitch im not talkin bout u but the cool from lupe is a great album but wayne always using great verses on other ppl shit im still gonna say wayne the best lyricly n eminem , styles p , are not lyricly name a eminem song where he speak the truth he is overrated

[thegoldenhero]

Plus Eminem spit the truth on his Encore song when i'm gone talkin about how retiring fr4om the game and spending time with his daughter and etc.

[TXkingMN]

can u relate to that quitting rap n spending time with your daughter why is every one thinking im saying he aint good ok but wayne has way more truth songs hustler muzik,pay to the lord,mr carter,ect ect he is better emienm is old rap wayne the new rap old is good but get used to the new rap

[thegoldenhero]

Mr.Carter only good cause Jay on it. Wayne has real good flow but listen to the lyric he lookin for words to rhyme he sayin anything that pop out of his skull horrible metaphors as well. Styles P would murder Wayne lyrically and Eminem as well.

[Virus284]

Exactly that's what I try to tell ppl however they say the best rapper is the one's with the hit records I'll tell you Soulja boy's superman song was not good at all it sucked really but he had a little stupid dance to it that made it so popular but he sucks wane is trash and so on they are all doo doo

[DahrChe]

Similez & Tha Song :

I Spit It Lyk Skoal Minted = Skoal Mint iz Chewin Tobacco, Hell Met Lyk Riddell = Riddell Makez Helmetz,I Put It On Tha Bar Lyk Beer Nutz = A Bar Mix Of Nutz,I Put It On My Grandmamaz Daughter = His Mother, I Author Lyk DW Brother = D.W's Brother Iz Author,I Do 4 Tha Hood Lyk A Parka = A Parka Iz A Coat With A Hood,I Tell My Niggaz Not 2 Shiver The Only Time We Quiver Lyk A Archer Iz = A Quiver Iz Wat Archerz Hold Their Arrowz In.

God Dammmnnn Lu...Bombs On America Man

[Virus284]

Thx 4 that cuz some ppl don't understand him because he uses phrases that are over 1st grade vocabulary words his whole flow is sweet ppl just don't understand him

[Tomas2504]

fnf up!

[Decatacertified]

Best Rapper Alive And Best Song Since 2Pac's "Only God Can Judge Me",The 2 Best Songz Eva.

[AKAUSTIN18]

lupe da sikest out now he aint gone have a last album while he in his prime

[clickclack2134]

BEST RAPPER IN THE GAME PERIOD!!!!

[sidthekid2009]

i agree

but, kanye is a close 2nd

[Naraku111]

nope

tupac is greatest of all time

but this guys up there

[yoguelmi]

1_tupac

2_lupe fiasco

3_???????

[NovaKi11er]

papoose would be the 3rd jus in case you're unsure. put eminem in that list while you're at it.

[alcdre]

hum, NOTORIOUS B.I.G before eminem pleaze?

[Darylmckenna]

F. N. F.

[Oldladynutinifan]

Whats up Daryl it's Liam

[TUNDE88]

best song EVER!!!!!

[cupcakekes]

Dont really listen to this kinda music but its Good (:

[doomofchikin]

keep listenin

[cupcakekes]

Dont really listen to this kinda music but its Good (:

[Yankeemetfan06]

Lupe is probably the best lyricist since Eminem.

[laithehoa2]

Lupe is probably the best lyricist since Tupac. i got nothing against eminem its just Tupac is way better

[OfMorose]

Tupac wasn't a big lyricist. Biggie Smalls was a better lyricist. Tupac just spoke the truth in his songs.

Lupe has more game than Tupac. Peace to Tupac and nothing but respect. Its just the truth.

[NovaKi11er]

LOL. I'm glad that someone is thinkin the same way as me. It's sad he's only makin one last album tho.

[ripmeast21]

I have Nas as the Greatest ever Lu is the next Nas. After his next (and final) album, I think I will feel that's enough for me to say he's number 1 all time. I know he really has enough tracks to make 15-20 albums oday from his mixtapes, but I will only count albums. If that didn't make sense, basically by next year Lu will be best ever even over Nas

[3dkicks]

I don't know about yall but he reminds me of a young Common. Have you heard his "Conflict Diamonds" remix on youtube. Youtube that shit! This dude is 1 of the few REAL LYRICAL hiphop artist we got in the game

[koreanrobot47]

Mind-blowing.

[yoguelmi]

lupe is the best

lupe fiasco es el mejor

=)

[streethustla21]

No mattter Lupe will always be my favorite rapper. I like him better then tupac, biggie and Nas. Greastest ever imo.

[anelson26]

I put in on the bar like beer nuts. Lupe's lyrics are crazy.

[bigishsmallishblack]

U SOLID LUPE no one can touch u ur the power of all voices with a message and sum sik beats 2 :)

[bigishsmallishblack]

U SOLID LUPE  no one can touch u ur the power of all voices with a message and sum sik beats 2 :)

[sapphynessy]

although when it comes to meaning, wayne comes no where near to lupe along with most mainstream rappers, he is good when it comes to using metaphors

[Steelafan763]

nice song...but what the hell is up with that description??

[KishManz]

this song is 2 sik!!! END OF!

LUPE= LEGEND!!!

[1KleineT1]

do y'all think he's a legend i think that he's going to one

[Zazlimel]

future hip-hop legend, YES

[ivanm10]

"I put it on the bars like beer nutz"

"I put it on my grandmamas daughter"

"we came up like worms in the rain"

"my chain became a loose noose that was used to hang us"

just some of my fav lines in this song. lupe's a lyrical genious better than the stupid lyrics that many of the other mainstream rappers have.

[braddersdaboi]

lupe best out there wid kanye

[niggro212]

word.

[Dipset101x]

Lupe the greatest next to pac, nuff said

[haitianqueen90]

i dont think any1s near Tupac...but lupe nice..but not 2pac nice

[ImmynimmyX]

its like a dunk contest a miget vs dr j

lupe is the best and most intelligent out there

[KishManz]

fukin kool song

[deadly6havoc]

im personally a lupe fan and im tired of ppl sayin wayne iz better

[Zazlimel]

you can't even put them in the same country, Wayne can't touch Lupe

[5arge]

get the fuck outta here. weezy is wack , you must be some wack ass down south nigga who likes soulja boy shit too. dumb fuck. lupe is a fuckin hip hop prodigy.

[Bmantastic13]

that part where he wuz like a author like d.w brother like a hustla wuz straight fire. i luv weezy but lupes lyrics overcome waynes swagger

[kettle0fish]

this song is booomting!

[funkeyass33]

lmfao booomting?

[nelak7]

big tune

[nextpro]

Lupe fiasco`s best song, no doubt.

[mwamboje]

My own opinion this is lupe's hardest song. I jam it in ma car everytime am sliding.

[spidy05]

lupe fiasco real hip hop period!

[NastyDHL]

goddamn...made me goosebumps man this dudes flow is nuts...wayne got a nice flow too but this dudes lyrics are well over waynes head

[ANewFlame]

Grandmama's daughter.

[alexjammer]

[KaosuAiden]

[mosdef83]

"We only got one more to go, L-U-P-End"

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOO!!!!!!!

[DubleAinc]

awesome

[BurntOffering08]

Damn, I only fear God, weapons are for the weak. That should be my motto, man. It's true, though, weapons are for the weak...

[NastyDHL]

nah hes sayin i only fear god, know the weapons of the weak...sayin the weak are haters, the attack others physically or verbally so if you know their weapons they cant hurt ya..

[illkid814]

Now can Lil wayne spit anything like this? Heeelll naw! Lupe is a lyrical genius! Both CDs prove it.

[mosdef83]

A author/Arthur/, like DW brother like a hustla/ haha, i just barely caught that....

[Alckatraz]

Nice I didn't even catch it but now I get it

[afesgedfrgf]

this song is hot fire!

[LethalDozePL]

great
