  • @Swizzy508 how bout youre a faggot and you dontlisten to rap i go on videos like this to tell you faggots how gay the shit you listen to is

  • @mu2ic1 I have an answer: yes!

  • really lupe is the shit every rapper samples listen to the song make it number 1

  • 1. Pause video

    2. Press the Up and Right arrows.

    3. Play Snake :D

    Thumbs up if it worked.

  • this song is a real song about life

  • I want this song to play at my funeral... <3

  • This song is garbage, especially compared to the song he "sampled" it from.

  • @TheSlinja Listen to the fuckin lyrics son

  • Every rapper samples a song from someone else. You guys make it sound like its a bad thing. Just shut up and listen to the song.

  • i think its cool that hes a rapper but he sampled a rock song, the music not the chorus like eminem dose. 

  • hey lupe, i love you;)

    -me

  • people have been usings each anothers material for as long as music has been about, so chill your bean.

  • Being a big Modest Mouse fan, this is sick. Lupe's a beast. Who cares if he sampled the song? Big deal. Shit happens all the time.

  • la-...ser

  • @sOtAllnL3nkY

    actually jason derulo got his start as a song writer for usher and sean kingston just saying

  • guys, chill out about the modest mouse thing. people take beats all the time. even if he "stole it" the modest mouse song was released in 2004. it's legal to take someones music without their permission if it's been out for more than 3 years. chill out, and enjoy the music.

  • alot of muscians sample it calm down

  • lol! r ppl really fighting dat lupe stole da sound from modest m.?!?

    ummm u guys do kno dat its called "sampling" right??

    fuckin ppl haha...

  • HOLY SHIT i just discovered something amazing: LUPE SAMPLED MODEST MOUSE. I can't believe no one else realized this yet! I feel like I'm fucking Christopher Columbus or some shit.

  • @KanyeTroll You guys are all fucking retarded. Lupe didnt sample shit,The guy that produced the beat (kane beatz) sampled modest mouse,SO if you all wanna be butthurt little pussies because your indie band got sampled.. Then idk what to say to you guys. That should be a fucking honor to get sampled by kane,He thought your shit was catchy so he sampled it. Btw,Sampling is a common practice thats been around as long as music.

  • @sOtAllnL3nkY sure you cusses at me and tried to undercut me but you didn't address my point so through silence is conceiding you agree im correct

  • Lupe Fiasco is awesome!!!

  • Good song love lupe still, but wish he woulda made his own music for the lyrics, but it just goes to show the respect rappers (well lupe fiasco anyways) have for other genres of music that some people dont even know exist due to the overshadowing size of rap genre and rock and roll, and country a bit too unfortunately, and it proves the ear for music lupe has by using such a unique and rhythmic beat and basing a song around it

  • this guy is the biggest douche in the world

  • @TheChosenOne862 how is he the biggest douche in the world. what has he personally done to u that made u think that or are u just anothing hater

  • @sOtAllnL3nkY well ur a fucking idiot cause lupe stole the song off of modest moust "float on" not fucking jason derulu fucking retard

  • FUCK YOU ALL LISTEN TO modest mouse "float on" SOUND THE SAME FUCK HES A FUCKING COPYRIGHT BITCH he took the lyrics and put in different instroments listen

  • @TheChosenOne862 You're just a hater, the lyrics aren't alike at all just the background at times are similar. The lyrics to this song are way better and the melody of the chorus is way better and there is rap so seriously go away and stop spamming the comment page if you don't like the song. Also, how is "And we all float on" the same as "The show goes on alright".

  • @TheChosenOne862 are you fucking dumb? it's called sampling every fucking rapper does it dumb shit.

  • lupes= great. modest mouse= fantastical; this song= fantastically great

  • It's kind of a cheap tactic don't you think just like whatcha say by Jason Derulo they took a once popular song changed the words to the chorus and and change the veres just so it will catch on

  • I say youtube make that if you dislike a video your username comes up in red and you have to have a reason for why you dislike!?!?!?

  • This Is th shit

  • @mu2ic1 if your heart is as cold as an iceburg lol

  • Lupe is rap. Lupe is hip-hop. Lupe is an inspiration. Lupe is a legend. Lupe is the present, the future but never will he be the past.

  • this shit is ill

    

  • Yo this the truth right here I co-sign this all day, finally some rapper aint talking bout doing things they really dont do

  • float on is soooooo much better, shame thats not mainstream and this is, ah well :-(

  • his album come out yet?! ive listened to lupe since i could speak man lupe no doubt ur my hero ur the reason why theirs light in the world never stop never drop

  • i luv diz song sooo fuckin bad... danmm!

  • I like the "we all float on" melody. :) Best song in 2011.

  • WTF, he ripped off Modest Mouse. The hell.

  • @spreadtheawesome Its called sampling champ haha

  • some guy said listen to big l lol who the fuck is that. too bad hes coming on here listening to lupe songs lol

  • this is a disgrace, motha fucker ripped off modest mouse, best band today have been butchered byt this cuuuuuunt

  • @GBTTKvideos You my friend are an ignorant piece of shit. First, go google what a "sample" is, and once you realize what a dumbass you are you will realize that the produced, Kane, not Lupe needed to first get permission from Modest Mouse/MM's label and would have to pay to sample it

    FNF^

  • Love this song. Most inspirational song out to date right now. Lupe Fiasco is a master!

  • wow lupe, way to rip off modest mouse and make it sound like complete and total shit.

  • @jayspivak71292 Ever heard of a thing called sampling.

  • @TWutangT yeah, this was a poor one

  • @jayspivak71292 wow jay, way to listen to modest mouse and make it sound like you listen to good music.

  • @JeffHolla i listen to a lot more then just modest mouse, this song just sucks.

  • @jayspivak71292 ur a fuckin idiot who doesnt even deserve to listen to lupe. go listen to some country faggot

  • @mossy1792 um i listen to hiphop, rock and dubstep, not country. this song just so happens to suck. sorry.

  • @jayspivak71292  go listen to your meaningless lil wayne or whoever the fuck mainstream fags listen to

  • @gunganundercover oh you mean artist's like l.e.$, mac miller and all sorts of artists from the mixtape scene? this shit is more mainstream then the music i listen to....

  • @jayspivak71292 I've listened to Mac Miller and can tell you he's nothing compared to lupe fiasco..so don't compare the comparable to the uncomparable.

    ps. kool aid and frozen pizza was the shit :P

  • @jayspivak71292 noone gives a shit about your opinion. compare likes to dislikes 13,000 roughly against almost 300. be apart of the 300 then lol

  • I Love This Song

  • Comment removed

  • @xxfinisherxx are you joking?!!??!?!?

    issac brock is one of the greatest lyracists of all time

  • My joint.....LUPE IS MY DUDE!

  • lol srry for quickly assuming lol

  • I love how people assume he just up and "stole" the song from Modest Mouse. Like he thought no one would notice or something? haha. chill out and get the facts man.

  • @halomontage i swear these people haven't heard of sampling before

  • @soldier7280 Lupe bought this song from him. Otherwise its copyright. it was in a magazine.

  • @Frank7kw Actually, it's legal to change the lyrics to a song (or more aptly 'parody') a song without any permission or the likes.

  • @marvinriscos really? but can u record it and sell it for profit? (just wondering)

  • @Fkingsexyalienmonkey 'Under the "fair use" provision of U.S. copyright law, affirmed by the United States Supreme Court, one does not need permission to record a parody.' This is all apparently and off Wikipedia so believe what you like, I think this is more classed as a sampling so maybe the copyright laws are different, especially as the sample is changed/remixed quite a bit. It's a good use of the tune anyway.

  • listen to the song; float on

    by; modest mouse

    he copied the song listen to the hole thing

  • lol this song is amazing but its copyed by a rock band. the chorus is copied and the intro beat is a guitar. but in this versian its speed up.

  • Both modest mouse's and this song are excellent... i can't tell if i like the remix more or not though. Modest Mouse just has that wierd quarky music that i just love.

  • This is real rap for once a person who has a good beat while still having meaning full lyrics and not just talking about stupid stuff. LUPE IS HIP-HOP i agree with swizzy508. just saying.

  • Strugglin' Survivin' That you gon perservere.

    (goosebumps every time)

  • this is really the only rap or hip hop artist i like i dont like all that soulja boy or lil wayne shit with auto tune

  • I love modest mouse and I love Lupe.... But they shouldn't mixed :(

  • BUY THE ALBUM... SUPPORT LYRICAL MUSIC

  • good musik

  • I hope no one forgets that MODEST MOUSE made this song possible.

  • the people that disliked this thought it said "DIS I LIKE" !

  • BEgging from 0 to 40 secs

  • someone found a new football pump up song! this is amazing

  • Finally, a fuckin inspirational artist not talking about sex, drugs & rock and roll.

  • @TheLounolan their still talking about "rock and roll" :b ha

  • @TheLounolan shut up

  • @TheLounolan pretty sure alot of artists dont talk about sex, drugs and rock and roll

  • @MRWAFFLESJR pretty sure most do though

  • @TheLounolan dude shut the fuck up

  • Such an ace sample. Modest Mouse are siick

  • For real guys

    The beat is sampled from that song

  • Hmm... Lupe Fiasco used the same rhythm from Modest Mouse - Float On...

  • this stuff go hard foreal i noticed good rap is really startin to come back

  • Ehhhhhh this song is siiicK!!!!!!!!!! I love this song its NICE!!!

  • lupe....KILLED IT!!!! love this song now!!

  • This song is so fucking good <33 love it 

  • the guy is a fucking poet :O

  • without modest mouse inspiring lupe with their song there might not of been this song .. dont look at it as stealing but good music inspiring more good music

  • Sounds like Wayne & Drake "Right Above It"?.. #ImJustSayn

  • If you like Lupe Fiasco then you'll definitely feel the tracks on my page, i come with a completely different flow and style from anyone that's out now, i'm a crazy lyricist with some hard ass beats too, i'm just an east coast artist that's tired of hearin bullshit music so rate/comment/and subscribe if you're ready to hear some real hip-hop join the movement! blood money!! Haaaa

  • 274 niggas dont got bitches on they dick rt

  • Niggas don't understand the concept of sampling. Even from a marketing standpoint this is positive exposure for Modest Mouse's camp. Get with it niggasss - Lasers!

  • ♪♫♪♬♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥Anybody ever wonder, when they would see the sun up

    Just remember when you come up

    The show goes on!♪♫♪♬♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

  • Homage maybe...sample obviously... rip off? modest mouse is already counting money from this song

  • This is a Modest Mouse rip off.

  • sounds like float on by modest mouse no?

  • @mdomarali thank u a million times i was trying for like 9 days of listening to this to figure out what sound i was hearing some how i got queen the show must go on out of it thank you

  • FUCK! I broke the reply button. =/

  • AwEsOmE sOnG!!!!!!!!

  • lupe is... new... not just rap like eminem or lil wayne but has soul like eminem.... best rapper alive

  • lupe is great especially combined with modest mouse!!

  • our schoool basketball team comes out to this and it is thaaaaa shit!

  • i love the song float on and now i love thiss <3

  • If any of you want salvation, repent and stop sinning. No sinner shall stand in the congregation of the Lord. Psalms 1:5-6

    Only the righteous will inherit the kingdom of God. Keep the laws, statutes, commandments, and holy days. After you can do that, get baptized in Jesus name and keep walking straight. When you mess up, repent, for Jesus is our advocate to the Father. REPENT PEOPLE!

  • if u dislike ur just mad u ARE A VIRGINNNNN

  • All right already the show goes on, All Night til the morning, We dream so long anybody ever wonder when they would see the sun go, Jus remember when you come THE SHOW GOES ON!!!! hell yeah Lupe's back bitches!!!!!

  • loove it!

  • @ViewLaughFav I know what the fuck it's called. Doesn't mean I have to like it. I consider sampling to be the lowest of the low, music-wise.

  • Lupe is rap. Lupe is hip-hop. Lupe is an inspiration. Lupe is a legend. Lupe is the present, the future.

  • @Swizzy508 how bout hes a pussy faggot and he cant rap. Try some Big L, faggot.

  • @storm9lax lol you come on lupe's song lol and talk shit. You don't see me going on Big L whoever that is and talking shit. Stfu

  • It's been like what, 4 years since his last album, it's great to see it's finally coming together. Lupe is one of the best rappers out there! His music is inspirational and he is very subtle with his lyrics. If Lasers is anything like The Cool I will be very happy :-D

  • @jiffrey32 know it's been barely 3 year's !!!!! just sayin

  • Lupe Fiasco over Lil Wayne anyday!

  • @xotaralynox

    Any Day of the week.

  • @ca103101 Oh dang, someone that actually agrees! Lol, I thought I would get sooo much hate from that comment... :)

  • Lupe And J. Cole need to make a song...its few artist that talk about real stuff like them.

  • right when this song came on , i knew he got it from modest mouse float on ((:

    he a fuckin' genius ♥

  • Who is the singer on this track?

  • This is fucking weak!!! He this from "feel the pain by dinosaur jr"

  • Lupe said this is gonna be a New Joint on 106 & Park today! If this song doesn't explode like it should, i'll be convinced that my generation simply does NOT want positivity. Only saying "f*ck the haters" all the time doesn't count as positivity, either. We gotta make changes ya'll; it's up to us. We have more resources than our parents & ancestors ever had......change should come easier for us!

  • Lupe is One of the very few rappers out now who talks about problems the world needs to fix; and who encourages children to do their best. as he does in this song. Hip-Hop started out with DJ's sampling beats from Jazz,Blues,Funk,R&B,and Pop songs. so what is wrong what lupe did now, your are false fan of lupe fiasco. it shouldnt matter if he stays underground, or mainstream. a real fan would support him anyway regardless if he got a buzz CREDIT TO ZEROLOCKXXX

  • Fuck you potatoeization u bitch dont you ever say fuck wiz kalifa i will turn ur ass into a french fry taylor gang or die u pussy

  • 1.pause at 0:00

  • i am a big modest mouse fan, and i have always loved lupe's music. to me, this song is cocaine's ecstasy.

  • @npatil777 lyrically his shts AMAZING. but ya the topic isnt the best. lupes lyrics are meaningful and honestly its sadly uniqe to only him now-a-days

  • refreshing change of pace from songs bout pussy, money, n dope.

  • Comment removed
