great....his every song makes sence....and tells it's own story......thats the essence of hip-hop......lil wayne your ass is owned by Lupe Fiasco.....you fake ass motherfucker.......keep it real......peace from belgrade,serbia
he said it in an interview with MTV. Interview is from April 11th, 2008, here's the one part...
"It is based on Slim Thug," Lupe revealed. "I was with him when we shot the video, and he was like, 'Yo, is this song about me?' I didn't know at the time, but there was a situation in Houston where they were trying to figure out who the song was about. Was it about Slim Thug? Was it about Chamillionaire? And it was about Slim Thug, but [then] I dedicated the song to Bun.
Lupe Fiasco is one of the most brilliant storytellers of our generation...
There I stated a fact.
Anyone who doesnt agree is insane its like 2+2=4 its true!
Now into opinions, Lupe Fiasco being the best rapper alive or best rapper ever is just an opinion, although he is my favorite rapper right now i wont say hes the best of all. Neither can be said about rappers like Pac, Biggie, Nas, Andre, or KRS.
This is all good, but have yall heard of vthov? Search "Vthov Obama Inauguration Song" This cat is going to be huge. Raw lyrics and he makes his own beats which are also fiyah. See for yourself if you don't believe me.
lupe is a balla im feelin his music i tried my hand at music im still tryin to find my voice click on my name and go to my page leave a comment or message me deuces to my future fans lol ha
lol thats the only insult you can get from lil wayne fans nothing else. all you guys say are i fuck your mom, fuck you hater and all this other wack ass shit.
Why do all you fags bring Lil' Wayne into EVERY rap vid on Youtube, omgwtfbbq there are no words on this planet to describe how bad Lil' Wayne is, Actually no i ain't gonna bother ranting, pointless comment =] /rant
lil wayne raps bout the same three things..pussy money drugs and hes not in the top five out there right now. jay z kanye lupe eminem nas andre 300 ludacris are all better.
lupe is sick dont get my wrong he can make a hella good song
but Wayne is Wayne lupes not better then him he might be a better song maker but not a better freestyler or mixtape maker wayne is i dont like to say it but wayne is the best out rite now
but look at charles hamilton and wiz khalifa and Wale those cats are sick 2
that shit is retarded...what matters more? making good songs or putting out mixtapes or freestyling? lil wayne is wack & only ppl who don't know what real hip hop is listen to that bubble gum hip hop shit
man this song is based on kiotti of houston tx and 5th ward is where he is from and this song is not about slim thug cause slim is from acres homes 44 houston tx
im glad his songs got like only 30k views, coz when he gets his 30 million views on youtube hes gonna start coming out with shit meaningless songs, unlike these
it's been a long time since i've heard good lyrics. most hip hop these days talk about bling and hoes and whatever else, nothing real anymore. i like how lupe has a way with lyrics to help send a message or tell a story.
is that a real question? woww hahaa lupe is one of the realestt rappers outt there dudee lil waynes fuckin fake and makes noo sense..for instance RANSOM - Ima bring that barrel to them bitches
Eye liners and what I make up will fuck up your skin
I pick the buck up and buck buck and buck buck again
I will butt fuck your friend then suck up her twin
I put the buck up to him then buck buck and buck buck and buck buck again
suck nut you duck fuck your unlovin kin..wtf does that mean?
I made a mixtape for some wanna be thug n i said it had real rap (nas, common, Lupe, b.o.b, andre, mos def), this nigga tells me he doesnt like it because the music makes him think too hard. WTF is that shit? he walks around school wearin weezy shirts and shit talking about how good wayne is. Man weezy hasnt made anything original in years
Hey, this is all good... but yall need to hear this cat Vthov. Search "Vthov Obama Inauguration Song" and you'll see what I'm talking about. He's a nobody now, but he's gonna blow up with talent like that. If I'm lyin I'm flyin.
Love this song. Very similar to One t's Magic Key song (seriously search it out and listen to the chorus) I like both songs though and see the differences, but they do sound a lot alike.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
fucking video is weak song is good video is weak. all lupe does is stand there and dance like a faggot. he should get some better moves and better looking bitches be4 he makes a lame ass video liek this one. Good song.
its bullshit that this is ganna be his last album just cause he dont get the recognition he deserves i guess no one really knows wat real hip hop is, everyone likes that fake ass shit like lollipop and everythang lupe=KING
wats good yall, if u wanna hear some more real hip hop. type in new fundamental. trust me, its good, none of that garbage dats on the radio nowadays. peace n bless
he is awesome but is that bearly no one knows this song because its not on the radio or stuff so it isnt popular but man i love this song he shouldnt retire
