  • gangstarr>lupe.

  • Yo real shit, niggas needa quit hatin on Lupe the Killer. Lupe spit the truth, you can't tell me Food & Liquor, The Cool, and Friend of the People don't got real subject matter. On top of that most of the cats hatin on him just mad they can't understand the double AND triple entendres that he be spitting when he flow. Lupe one of the best to ever do it!

  • Bad ass beat but a fag had to "free style over it" Fuck Lupe Fiasco

  • @castro299 did you even listen to the song? dumbass get out of here with those stupid comments

  • @bball2908 Listen to Gangstarr 

  • @castro299 what the original? of course ive heard it but lupe went in on this you cant deny it and i like his flow on this better than the original

  • Dope.....

  • @8soundfx8 "im sort of like socrates in a prada tee, you can't kick it your pockets thinner then soccer tees" "hella proper, my garment is propeller of chopper, cause I hella copped em, so I can be way flyer then all em" #nuffsaid #poeticgenius #fuckuphoeyoustupid

  • @johnnyrodgersss why are you using has tags faggot this isn't twitter

  • dude spit game is not to be fucked with! he conscious now but aint shit changed cant no one fuck with his flow...be honest

  • @amatallah2008 is that even a question...Big and Pac

  • this song is fuckin nastyy idk tho u hear crooked I hit this beat ? DAMN then u hear this n just shake ur fuckin head....only 2 on this beat that are BOSSSSS

  • @CLOVERCITYY15 Wale was nice on this beat too !

  • Comment removed

  • @8soundfx8 you sed Wale is garbage...........does he come close to lupe NO but he deffinitely isn't garbage..he's one of the hardest workers out there and has raw flows! Your stupid to say Wale sucks..go back to school bitch

  • @johnnyrodgersss wale sucks kid get your head out of your ass

  • Lupe is third best rapper ever ...not debatable!

  • @johnnyrodgersss Who are the first two??? ANNNNDDDDD Don't dare say Jay-Z...I'll put Common and Mos Def

  • @johnnyrodgersss

    lol... of course its debatable.. compared to the greats, lupe aint shit. he's still a great rapper, but not in the top 10 at all... in my opinion, it's pac, nas, and big l... not lupe.. lupe doesnt even come close

  • @kdually14 nigga? you frontin really. Lupe is one of the top metaphor rappers EVER. Especially in wordplay and his flow. Dude's a chameleon. Failure???

  • @keybladekid0

    can you speak english bro..? I like big pun, big l, nas, pac, big, common, jay-z, kane, guru, entire wu tang clan, KRS one, Hussein fatal, Jeru the Damaja, and scarface... there are plenty more... i like Lupe, but to say he is top 5 based on rapping ability and resume, is a disgrace to the greats..

  • @kdually14 Nah troglodytes like myself cannot converse at all "bro". Lyrically? Pac isn't even top 5 so stop it. KRs neither and I'm from the Bronx. If you know Wu discography then you know that Deck is the supreme. Jay hasn't made something worthwhile since The Black Album. Jeru has a classic and big L is the backpackers go-to. but not enough catalog. I'm a HUGE Face fan tho but he isnt top 5 LYRICALLY. You really heard the Fahrenheit tapes? Dude made a Saga span mixtapes into albums

  • @keybladekid0

    I wasn't speaking on strictly lyrical ability nigga. Pac was influencial and had great subject matter, and one of the best flows of all time. Deck is probably one of the best from the Wu, but I like the entire wu tang clan over fiasco. Even if Jay is over the hill, what has Fiasco put out recently? Lasers was average, so was I Fight Evil. I'm not talking about lyrical ability, i'm just talking about rapping overall and resumes.

  • @kdually14 when we talking th best rhymers alive its always lyrics that come first son. Lupe himself said Lasers was ass and Friend of the People still had bars. Lu still got 2 classic LPs. Double Burger with Cheese. And stop lying. You saying you like U-God nigga?????? Listen to Black Shampoo again its bullshit

  • @kdually14 Lupe is the best lyrical rapper of all-time. There is no question about it. Anyone who says differently is too slow to comprehend the double and triple metaphors that are everywhere in Lupe's music.

    Educate yourself.

  • @SuperSwagSauce

    you're acting as though this is all fact? this is all OPINIONATED. in my opinion big l, pun, canibus prodigy, method man, gza, inspectah deck, guru, nas, common, scar face, krs one, and a few others over lupe.. but lupe is an extremely good rapper, i just dont consider him THE BEST.

  • @kdually14 No, speaking LYRICALLY, Lupe just the best. I understand your opinion, but cmon man, break down the time barrier.

  • @youngj1921

    look i like lupe's music. food & liquor is a classic album. hip hop saved my life is one of my favorite tracks of all time. and speaking of being lyrical, like i said, that's all opinion. i just think inspectah deck, mos def, guru, canibus, nas, prodigy, big l, big pun, gza, common, biggie, and a few others are more lyrical then Lupe.. That's not really far fetched because they are ALL TIME GREAT rappers. However I do consider him more lyrical then 2Pac or a Jay-Z. Just IMO.

  • @kdually14 I'll tell you how thats far fatched. You listed all-time great RAPPERS, A lot of your list had great lyricists, Lupe may not be a better RAPPER, but he's a far better LYRICIST.

  • @youngj1921

    All of my list was full of ATG lyricists. Lupe would fit in well with them,. He may even be better then a few of them. and like i said being lyrical IS AN OPINION. It comes down to preference in the end. To say he's just lyrically better then all of the guys I listed is a little bit much imo.

  • @kdually14 Lupe's a better lyricist then most of that list. 

  • @youngj1921

    okay whatever. this isn't going anywhere. canibus and mos def are better lyricists. but like i said its all opinion

  • Lupe's version is just as good as Wale's, if not better. But Lupe flow can't touch Wale's imo

  • @iMpReZa120 naw man lupe on a whole nother level than wale

  • @365spook yea i get your point. I think lupe kind hippo critical tho. N how u go from "kick, kick, push, skater, to slinging' bricks? lol idk

  • Fucking amazing... but I know u don't wanna here me drop a triple on dis shit lmao....

  • 213,000 views. those are all mine

  • Comment removed

  • lupe going hard on this..his new mixtape come out tomorrow..i hope is dope

  • wale kills this beat..."end these weak niggas like a muh fuggin friday"! now thats true hip hop

  • @tmcapaul hahaha wale fucking sucks.

  • @8SOUNDFX8 haha yea ok bruh. you a lil lame hatin' ass nicca. Wale fucking sucks? oh yea bro, hehe your so cool. Nerd. Youre def "hip-hop" wit out a doubtt mannn

  • @iMpReZa120 You mad?

  • @Ant718100 whys he known for slinging brinks? I've never heard anything about lupe throwing brinks at people..

  • @tmcapaul Wow, when Lupe says sling he doesn't actually mean he's throwing a brick. Slinging bricks means drug dealing, like selling a brick of cocaine. When he says sling it's meant to be a double meaning because it applies to Craig from Friday slinging an actual brick and Lupe slinging bricks (selling drugs).

  • "You the type to get charged like visas"

    me: *dead*

  • @YhollaOH yu explained that very well...some niggas dnt listen before they comment..

  • you clearly didnt unserstand the metaphor but ill be happy to explain, no subliminal at all, but he said sling brick like craig off of friday. implying when craig thru the brick and hit Debo in the face. done

  • craig doesn't sell brink in friday though...educate youreslf before you try to rap about a topic.

  • @tmcapaul No he doesn't, but he throws an actual brick at Deebo during their fight scene at the end. That's why he said he slings bricks like Craig in Friday. Sling also means throw dude. So educate YOURself before you comment. :)

  • @tmcapaul r u stupid he talkin about the fight wit debo

  • I want the not so Political Lupe Back lmao....... N E ways Amazing flow; I must say lmao..

  • I miss the lupe fiasco

  • LUPE AWESOME!!!

    CHICAGO STANDUP!

  • "buck shots leave ya face looking like receivers" LOOOOLLLLLL

  • Gangstarr is turning over in his grave.. R.I.P. SMH! 

  • @wakeen123 ....UR TRIPPIN!

  • @wakeen123 Gangstarr was not a person....  I think you meant to say Guru

  • @wakeen123 Gangstarr is a group first of all

  • @wakeen123 Lupe murdered this though?

  • @wakeen123 Turning over to hear Lupe better =)

  • @wakeen123 His name is GURU.

    He is only one half of Gang Starr, with DJ Premier.

    Plus, I think both Guru and Premo would be able to see that Lupe killed it!

  • i cant help but nod my head everytime lupe says somethin so clever orwitty. kno wa i mean? .

    "like sugar shane, ima leave you shooked and ashamed"

    (smh) i can't get that line out of my head. lol

  • It was alright but it wasn't as dope as I thought it would be. I guess I should have listen to Lupe's freestyle first before listening to Crooked i's freestyle cause that nigga SLAUGHTERED IT.

  • @john1987805

    you just missed all of the dope metaphors

    alot of hidden punchlines in here that went over your head

  • Comment removed

  • @Dboy4100X3 Not really man. I got what he said but I just think that Crooked I freestyle was a hell of alot better. Lol Alot of ya'll actin like I said the nigga was whack or somethin.

  • @EROEKILLS lol nigga you listen to gucci mane <<<HAHAHA no wonder you think lupe is wack you dumbass you don't know nothing about hip hop.

  • lmfao just when i think lupe owns this beat, i hear crooked I fucking murrrrder him on mass appeal freestyle LITERAL

  • @CLOVERCITYY15 Crooked I did murk the beat, but I wouldn't go as far to say that he murdered Lupe. IMO

  • R.I.P GURU

  • You guys are honestly idiots. The lyrics obviously went over your heads and all you really needed to do was open up a new tab and use google for what it was meant for.

  • Gang Starr's beat + Lupe Fiasco's lyrics = SICK.

  • R.I.P. Guru. Premier needs to get together with lupe, premier has the dopest beats hands down

  • @EROEKILLS seriously dude? you could've just said he shouldnt have hopped on this beat. but dont say Lupe's wack. That man is a lyrical monster

  • @Screwston4Ever Pffft Lyrical Monster haha....this guy sucks dick at rapping!

  • @EROEKILLS then honestly you're just a hater. simple as that. people who know good music at least respect an artist. but ur just an idiot i guess

  • @Screwston4Ever i guess iam an idiot,but i kno what good music is.and ur just a foggot listening to another faggot that cant rap for shit

  • @EROEKILLS let me ask you this then. what makes a rapper good?

  • @Screwston4Ever Chill man Just let him go back to his Soulja Boy CD

  • @shyuuump may i ask why?....or are u just a troll?

  • @NoShameInMyGame17 HE did, but that doesn't mean Lupe can't get on the track. Hes paying homage, people do that shit all the time, so what are you saying? & i Bet Guru prob thought Lupe spitting on this was sick . .L May he R.I.P. . Lupe is one of the most respected emcees in this generation. . I understand if it was Lil Wayne or Drake but it isn't. ITS this generations best . . No, best lyricist & one of the most gifted of ALL TIME .....

  • PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE>>>>>> this is bullshit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my ears are so offended my fingers are shaking to find Guru on the related videos... I cant believe i even managed to write this!!

  • excellence is my precense. never tense never hesitant

  • @NoShameInMyGame17 Lmfaoooo , you probably didn't understand this freestyle whatsoever... everything Lu said was COLD .

  • @NoShameInMyGame17 Lol atlantic is fucked line up plus gangstarr was mainstream back in the 90's

  • @NoShameInMyGame17 wow chill out mainstream?

  • Straight up lyrical Jedi!

  • @NoShameInMyGame17 Smh...... That comment isn't worthy.

  • I hate so many eminem stans. He was nice but all he does now is scream a tired out punchline. I also grant it that lupe don't do shit like this no more or around champ is here freestyle calibur. I do miss there old selfs, no hate.

  • buck shots make ya face look like recievers???!!!!!!!! WHAT?!!

  • @topmcat I think he's making ref to the old round receivers on phones with the holes that look like buckshot spread pattern only neater. Could be wrong though.

  • @ghostfaced1 it's the end of the phone you put your ear to. it's called the reciever. the older house phones have big holes

  • man shut up with your stupid top 5. there are tons of rappers that are good. to make A TOP FIVE WOULD BE ASININE. BUT IF YOU HAVE A FAVORITE THATS UNDERSTOOD. MY FAVORITE IS BIGGIE.

  • R.I.P GURU

  • 1). SHADY 2) LUPE RITE NOW, PERIOD CONSISTANCY TALKS N EMINEM....OVERALL ? EMINEM OWNS ALL...BIG-L IS 2 THEN LUPE...STRATE LYRICIST TALKIN FACTS HERE,....DONT DENY THAT.....1) EMINEM impeccable wordplay, delivery, consistency,multi styles, multi syllables unheard of....2) big -l wodplay king back in his day, but backthen he was better then nas and lupe but not eminem..not riding shit just facts, i know lyricist type shit..check my 500 plus lyrical tracks ....full blown rap head ~1 LOVE YA'LL ~

  • @CLOVERCITYY15 i hope english is your second language

  • @GeneralDisarray808 i hope cock in ur mothers asshole is my 3rd cuz that would just be BOSS !

  • @CLOVERCITYY15 lol sorry sir but that is not a language. don't worry you'll get the hang of english. Keep at it :)

  • @CLOVERCITYY15 Great Comment, I don't agree with your entire list but eminem is the greatest rapper alive.

  • @CLOVERCITYY15 sorry Em is overrated. He got his flow & style from Masta Ace, & Lupe & Nad is too much lyrical for Em. You aint no rap head, your a straight up idiot who can't type, LMAO.

  • "I stay on the top like freezers"

    Okay, you might not think that is sick, but when that is only 2seconds of the whole song and it relates to what he said 20seconds ago it is just genius, he correlates verses with five different metaphors and intertwines them so well, I just might, just might have to say this is a new generation, Lupe will lead it and is leading it, he will be the 'tupac' of this generation, hiphop didn't stop after the 90s, Lupe is making sure of that....make way people

  • young lupe wow

  • yessir lupe

  • gangstarr yee....guru was the best

  • So Guys, Hit you like pacquiao phillipines phillipines Vs. Sugar Shane, ill leave you shook and ashamed. What you think?

  • @wearelasersxd definately hooking ur brain like Sugar Shane

  • What people dont understand is that Lupe doesnt WRITE his freestyles... they are off the top!! thats why i think he is one of the best there is...

  • @WeAreHQ type in nas- ft t.i. - " topless" impeccable verses eminem 2 all 3 them fuck lyrical kings em sped up tho "8" miles ahead ask the game lol chek dat track if u want dankness

  • @WeAreHQ hahah how the fuck do you know?? you dont...for all you know he did write it...why cant he write a freestyle?? brothas been doing it since the 80s up till now why is it dnot possible all of the sudden?? you just dont know what your talking about.....

  • @WeAreHQ writing a freestyle kinda defeats the purpose in the first place... hence the name freestyle..

  • Lupe needs to make a track with DJ Premier for Food & Liquor II

  • NOBODY WILL EVER BE ABLE TO FUCK WITH THIS SONG AFTER LUPE MUREDERED THIS SHIT. "IM ALREADY KNOWIN YA'll COWARDS A HEART, IM PRONE TO SCHOOL NIGGAS LIKE HOWARD AN CLARK"

  • I know Lupe did not just talk about his watch on Guru's beat like that!!

  • gang star

  • More lyrics to go, but im here to stay/ I need more lyrics to blow like im here for cane/ Whats up my nose mite not be up yours/ Do u get it? U can never flow out doors/ I stay in the booth like I'm runnin for president/ and almost got life like Larenz, it's evident/ I should get a lifetime sentence award, for not bitin the bars off da visitin doors/ I'm way outcha league with no calls or refs/ it's just me in da arena walkin down da steps/ And a black micrphone dat I use for breath. (Remix)

  • NICE ...

  • if you dont know who this beat is by you dont know hiiippp hoppp... from da 1's to the 2's and u dont stop!

  • this is wack you cant amount to guru

  • @DaddyStuntz u full a shit

  • @flipgood89 ..he's right...the intstrumental is immortal but Lupe's verse was Waaaack

  • @VallaeBoy Fuck outta here

  • @BusterEason30 ..you first

  • @VallaeBoy ....ey' body got opinions, but to say his free was wack? Somethin' wrong with ur ears, fam.

  • @flipgood89 ..naw..just heard much better

  • @DaddyStuntz loser

  • whats this beat

  • pfffftttttttttttt... . . smh

  • I´m a 17yrs old spanish rapper go to my channel...i just recorded with a dope american rapper ..check it out,coment n rate..thx

  • What does he mean when he mentions Howard and Clark streets?

  • @Nacho773 Howard and Clark are universities. That's why he said he schools niggas like Howard and Clark.

  • @Ant718100 Ah, I thought he was talking about the streets

  • @Nacho773 Howard an Clark are primarily black schools lol he's schoolin niggas....yeah i know, lupe is fuckin ill

  • this is good but i have to say Crooked i had the best freestyle on this defenetly

  • i dont like him n i dont fuck wit 10 ppl eeda so gimme 10 meters i bang nigga!!!

  • i dont like u n i dont fuck wit him eeda so gimme 3 meters i bang nigga!

  • I noticed in his free styles he uses a lot of similies while in his actual songs he uses like 90% metaphors, 10% similies. Just rediculous how his lyric's work, he'll reference something from the first verse in the 3rd verse but use a completely diffrent metaphor but still mean the same thing HOW DOES IT COME UP WITH THIS SHIT IT'S LIKE HIS MIND IS A THEASAURUS OR ENCYCLOPEDIA.

  • @xooly yeah i love that, lupe is my favorite.

  • @xooly That's because it takes time to write metaphors.

  • @xooly eminem does better if u figured that out.....figure out the song "demon inside " or "microphone" by eminem...shits beyond lupe's control no hate tho this fire

  • @xooly not too much of a difference betweeen the two. A simile is used to describe something using like or as. A metaphor is describing something without using like or as(ex: more than, size of, etc.). As a fellow artist, I think with metaphors you can get more description out of what you're saying.

  • @xooly Freestyles need an ill punchline and they fit better with similes. I remember Charles Hamilton came with a story, metaphor type freestyle rap and got beat by a fan in a freestyle.

  • salam alaikom brother lupe get ya brother yusef. 2010 ramadan aki.... salamz

  • its not a joke, i made chickens cross the road. are u kidding me. ridiculous. lupe is the best. period.

  • @G19soccerballer ugh NO!!! top 40 all-time tho

  • Thank God for Lupe. One of the few rappers that do DJ Premier beats any justice.

  • lupe is the only real mainstream rapper.

  • I DON'T LIKE YOU AND I DON'T FUCK WIT HIM NEITHER SO GIVE ME THREE METERS

  • Doesn't compare to original...needs work

  • @boliRULES

    Nothing will ever compare to the original. Lyrical minds like Gurru only happen every once and a while. I could agree more with you.

  • @boliRULES i think it does need more work but i think maybe lupe could give gurru a challenge if he wrote more on this

  • @lupeemperor11 Its good but the voice doesn't flow with the music..

  • @boliRULES yeah but its a written freestyle if it was rehearsed more it would have a better flow

  • @boliRULES its a freestyle

  • he sound nasally like camron. flow is tight though

  • @2008GetBig why would you insult lupe by comparing him to a wack rapper like camron?

  • @ucantknockthehustle Lupe is like easily my favorite rapper and has been since I heard Food and Lquor when it came out. Cam is not wack lol Killa can spit. He mde one of the best rap no, hip hop songs of the last 5 years "My Job". that song is real....

  • sounds like little wayne.....im like, its like, im like, fucking lame tired of hearing the same old shit....

  • Wow, turns out Big-L didn't die...

  • @xXxDetoxxXx Word, Lupe does remind me of Big L

  • damn i miss his old way of rapping now hes not the same his voice is different but the lyrics are still great

  • LUPE! FUK DA HATORS!!
