Lupe Fiasco - Hip Hop Saved My Life HQ

[123pilotboy]

He picked up his son with a great big smile Rapped every single word to the newborn child Then he put 'em down and went back to the kitchen Put on another beat and got back to the mission To get his momma out the hood Put her somewhere in the woods Keep his lady looking good Have her rolling like she should Show his homies there's a way Other than that flipping Yay Bail his homie outta jail Put a lawyer on his case Throw a concert for the school Show this that's it cool WOW!

lupe fiasco is 10 times better than any other rapper out there

[Nayy99]

Love this song:)

[Wdubya11]

Not a fan of him but good song

[GmnisAwesome]

Lupe could have grown up to be exactly like Drake, Lil Wayne, etc. But Lupe decided he wanted to actually make good music. He is a great lyricist, and made great music with epic lyrics.

[MrVixano]

Guys check that illuminati triangle on the disc!

Thumbs up if you see it!

[TheExposer911]

@MrVixano you daft bastard.

[alwaysstrapped69]

@MrVixano obviously you dont listen to Lupe at all. think twice before typing next time

[scrawl11]

You got hiphop and gangsta rap confused

Hip hop shares love

[alteal]

Hip Hop kills more people than any type of music.

[MacTimpany]

@alteal

You don't have to be a negative person: that's ones of the themes in this song.

[imblowinjane]

@alteal music cant kill people, people kill people

[wlllll3]

@ satanswarcry likes lots of men so get away from him

[cyborgdata]

Not a massive lupe fan but this one of the best hip hop songs of all time....... truth.

[23TDJ]

@SwayJJ I hope for all our sakes that you are correct, because some of the recent things have made me worry while some still gives me optimism

[M3RK3Dbytheboss]

#realtalk



[Sinister8185]

[TyRayDesigns]

Hip hop saved Lupe, and Lupe saved hip hop

[marlon170000000001]

@TyRayDesigns until lasers... sorry had to be said

[KOOKEMONSTER922]

This song goes hard mayne.. this explains my life to a Tee yadadaiholla 

[InspectahDeck718]

Based on Slim Thug's life

[g2gaderade]

THIS IS ONE OF THE MANY SONG MADE BY LUPE FIASCO THAT IS NOT RECONIZED LIEK IT SHOULD BE...SAD...PEOPLE DONT KNOW GREAT HIP HOP WHEN THEY HEAR IT....

[SwayJJ]

Many people a jumping on Lasers and ripping it to shreds...and yes its not the quality that we have right here. This stuff is the Juice. But lasers has made Lupe more known to the general public...when Food & Liquer II comes out, people are going to feel what real hip hop is all about.

[RustyShackelford777]

Whole Video based on the boss of all bosses Slim Thug, H-Town baby! Lupe kills this!

[GeekyMedia]

if u guys like 'real' rappers who arent sell outs and rap about important things, check out 'Lokwey'. Its artists like these guys that are clinging on to real Hip Hop.

[playstation3gam3r]

slim thuggaaaa

[HOUSTON713TEXASI]

I looked it up, and he is talking about most rappers on Houston, but the main one he is talking about is Slim Thug. "He reps North Side so he rocks them braids"

[mikeveda1]

@HOUSTON713TEXASI and others, im from that booboo sugarland 

[mikeveda1]

@HOUSTON713TEXASI ye he is, its about a rapper from houston, he reps southside 

[HOUSTON713TEXASI]

Is he talking about someone from Houston?

[lasttruehiphopfan]

everyone search sleepy conscious "No apologies" that song is ill!

[mazin13]

hip hop is: music made of good beats and mad lyrics that are filled with emotions and heart! messages in the music and a purpose...it came in different forms over the years...from gangsta rap to g-funk to crunk and so on...and then we had this new school bull shit which killed hip hop..lupe fiasco gave it CPR in my opinion...and this is from a fan of biggie, pac, jadakiss, yukmouth, redman, method man...this is HIP HOP...reincarnated in another form.

[littlelebron12]

reps northside so he rocks them braids

[zaniel80]

@AnthonyPellino everyone's perspective, my friend. Not just yours. Glad I'm not the only one that notices that :)

[bleakwishes]

Beast, wish kanye-west would represent Chicago like Lupe ( positive attitude,  humble, and would talk about what really happens.)

[Misteremg]

@mrcalderon93 The sad truth is Kanye West has become a commercial puppet.

[msfriscogurl2010]

Stack that cheese

[chichofrijoles]

@SolePower 13 D-Boy is for "Dope Boy" which means someone that slangs dope...B-Boy is for Breakdancing boy which is self explanatory..."Ex D-Boy with a B-Boy flow!" Super hard!

[yoyoadriankingofgame]

Why is his right index finger painted black? is that a muslim tradition?

[thetimeless80]

[luckyhouston91]

"Told her when he get home he gon' take her to the galleria" the galleria mall here in Houston is the "rich" people mall "Get his momma out the hood, put her somewhere in the woods" the woods is the woodlands which is the one the very wealthy communities in houston.. Just some extra information to help you understand the lyrics better

[luckyhouston91]

@SolePower13 a d-boy is a dope boy. "raps north side so he rocks them braids" in Houston if you from north side you wear braids and if you from the south you get fades. "minute maid got his mama working like a slave" he's talking about minute maid park here in Houston where baseball and all that happens.
