  • am i the only one that hears a 99 problems sample?

    

  • from the start of this song to 0:31 i can totally rap that, im a 19 year old white girl.

    good song!

  • @5purplemonkeys1 do u want a fking medal?

  • @tru3b1u31 priceless

  • Fuck Obama!

  • @MrEnjoiiPie and that Michele whore of his

  • @MrEnjoiiPie .................

  • The only thing better than this song , is another song by Lupe.

  • FUCK SOPA!

  • This is incredible music, this is what rap should be about, when the lyrics actually speak to you instead of this shit today about drugs and money. Fuck Lil wayne and YMCMB they may have the money and the attention but their music doesnt have a shred of the soul and passion this stuff does!!!

  • yo this song isso sick. unrated song for sure.been listening to it for years.

  • Smooth!

  • I KILLED ANOTHER MAN TODAY, SHOT HIM IN HIS BACK AS HE RAN AWAY, THEN I BLEW UP HIS HUT WITH A HAND GRENADE ! - LUPE FIASCO !!

  • LUPE IS THE BEST MUSLIM RAPPER IN THE WHOLE WORLD HE DOIN HIS OWN GOD DAM THANG HE THA BEST N WE ALL KNOE THAT HES SONGS ARE SOOO AMAZIN..

  • @Eziokilla9595 No one cares about how many Albums beat Lupe's Mixtape. If this was a discussion based on what Albums beat Lupe's Projects this year then yes, it would be suitable. But please stop getting hyped and feel you need to mention your favourite Albums. This is a Lupe Video, and the song is off his first album. Also it is funny how you love to the mention you're top ten Albums on other Youtube Videos. Damn.

  • @ChristianJT84 This song is off of his second album.

  • I love Lupe Fiasco, been listening to him ever since he came out with food and liquor and I loved it along with the cool, that came out a few years later. I was disappointed when he came out with Lasers, because he was forced to go mainstream against his will, because his record label, Atlantic Records, did not want to release his old style of music, causing Lasers to be delayed 2 years. Hopefully Food and Liquor II, will be much better than Lasers.

    All hail Wasalu Muhammad Jaco.

  • @cheddaro96 Lupe is a beast! i actually liked his album and I hope he wins a grammy for it. And his mixtape Friend of the People torched Drake's album "Take Care" any day. F&F!

  • @JoshuasFlow Bro, I can name ten albums that murders Drakes album without mentioning Lupe (Section.80, Elmatic, Armor of God, Family Sign, Oneirology, R.E.K.S., Return of 4eva, Undun, The Martyr, and XXX) All these guys slaughtered Lupe's mixtape.

  • @SoDopeNRG i wanna give that comment 42 thousand thumbs up.

  • #realtalk

  • this needs more views :(

  • @daylatedollashort indeed

    

  • this song is about child soldiers and their lifestyles. the beat is based on child soldiers marching, if you hadn't picked that up yet.

  • Also, he may talk real and you people say theres noone like him, look up Immortal Technique he speaks the hard truth and if you actually.listened to the lyrics you would know.

  • For EVERYONE out there. IT IS NOT PENIS, IT IS PENNIES.PENNIES!!!

  • lupe speaks the truth everytime, and for some reason it aint about sex or anything! its about caring for little kids and people in poverty!. that is wassup.

  • Lupes a animal!!!

  • @Rubenrandom u got most of the lyrics wrong and its take the penis out the drawer lol

  • @gucciiboyy Living proof that Lupe went over your head, the idea of taking the pennies out the drawer as used is that he didn't rob for money, he did because he thought it was cool.

  • @youngj1921 lupe didnt go over my head lol i meant to say its not take the penis out the drawer... i couldnt write another comment cuz my comment pending.

  • @gucciiboyy Oh ok, chances are Lupe still went over everyone's head here (i had to check Rap Genius).

  • @youngj1921 wtf,he makes me to go in that site daily xD

  • Comment removed

  • @Rubenrandom im not sure thats it....

  • If you think this is good check out Hello Goodbye by Lupe

  • my teacher showed this to me and has been stuck in my head since Friday..

  • "Think you gangsta popped a few rounds? these kids will come through and murder a whole town." sickest verse

  • 22 people use there dick as a little weapon

  • @galactus96 hahahaha

  • Comment removed

  • anyone know the meaning of the deep voice chanting/singing at 0:30

  • @anthonyovechkin African tribe rituals.

  • @anthonyovechkin its just super freakin sick

  • Good... shit... Nuff said

  • Well...

  • am i the only one who heard this while listening to the tyler the creator radio station on pandora and thought it was fuckin awesome...

  • @ZIMLORDOFDEATH666 I heard it listening to Nujabes radio on there. Still thought it was fuckin awesome.

  • @ZIMLORDOFDEATH666 i heard it off kanye west radio :D

  • @ZIMLORDOFDEATH666 Hear it on my Fort Minor staion all the time. :)

  • @Maticus07 station*

  • @ZIMLORDOFDEATH666 u an 22 other people dont know about The Cool then..

  • @ZIMLORDOFDEATH666 I heard this on my kid cudi radio FUCK YE MI NIGGAH.

  • @ZIMLORDOFDEATH666 lupe fiasco radio ;)

  • Ya, he changed because his recorded label sucks ass they wont let him do things he want to do! The old lupe fiasco didnt die, hes stuck!

  • only thing changed about lupe is his beats. his lyrics is still on point. did goku stay the same to defeat freiza? hell naw he went suppersayian. lupe is fighting against the enemy. so to get the message to the mainstream he makes mainstream beats. has his lyrisicm changed ? hell no. he transformed not dumbed it down. stop complaining and listen to the message dammit

  • @chicoblaxican yeah i guess you are right, im still not really feeling his new stuff like i did songs like this, good on him though he always deserved more success and praise than he got

  • @chicoblaxican your half right his message is da same but he made his lyrics simple instead of complex lik he did on his previous album and it was NOT his choice to use those beats or hooks if you follow his interview da only creative control he had was his lyrics so no lupe did not purposely choose to go mainstream it was force upon him from da industry and the petition

  • @greg20423 still he is one of the few rappers out that actually has a message. long story short...no mc today comes close lyrically to mr fiasco. lol dumb it down was more lyrical that the entire carter 4 album, and the well done mixtape. when lupe starts rapping about big booty bitches and poppin bottles...then i will say he dumbed his music down. until then, he spits the truth

  • @chicoblaxican that was pretty boss

  • @chicoblaxican yea another good example of this is eminem on recovery same lyrical trickiness just mainstream beats.. i mean u can tell em is sellin out but shit he's a legend i would too if i were him and were in the game as long as he has been

  • @chicoblaxican lmao did u just cited goku and lupe in the same sentence...it worked but...lol

  • @chicoblaxican i love you for using Dragon Ball as a metaphor

  • Sounds like African child soldiers

  • @gordonfam6 It's supposed to, idiot.

  • Hehe

  • Comment removed

  • i sware lupe wrote bishop g's verse there wordplay sound to much alike

  • @MeZmoRiiZeXx right that verse was to amazing not to be writtin by lupe after i heard this lik years ago i luked up bishop g and none of his verses was as close to amazing as dis

  • R.I.P Old Lupe

  • I like how the song plays and the beat but the lyrics... They're so fucking depressing they shouldn't even write about this kind of stuff. I'm in some sort of twilight zone minority with this song.

  • @MrAwesomesauce101 Well he wants to address real issues going on in the world while not being boring.

  • 0:30

    Piiiizzzzzaaaaa fooorrrr meeeeeeee!

  • @MyNameIzKyquazadon just realized that LMAO

  • @MyNameIzKyquazadon oh snap I think garfield wrote the beginning lol but he knew lasagna wouldn't make sense so he thought of pizza

  • I'm f'ing obsessed with this man. Give him a few more years and he will be the cleaner version of Pac. Lupe I love you!

  • Lupe please just marry me....?!

  • Anyone else think it's weird that someone can say that they like love this song. Considering what it's about. If you know what I mean

  • just flat out si kkk

  • @zzdlee C'mon man

  • @fasdffa1 what? this song is awesome..

    

  • @zzdlee Yea I reread your comment and was like OH he said sikk, not "just flat out is kkk" LOL my bad man

  • all you fake ass us black gangstas who think ur hard with ur new era caps and mugging little kids for drugs need to remember these lyrics. you dont know how spoilt you really are

  • @hjastroi wellllll, your just jelous you cant make any songs aha

  • @paigehawk2 ummmm, i'm just reiterating what lupe fiasco said in the song. if you think i'm having a dig at him you need to re listen to the lyrics :P

  • Lupe doesn't make songs. He composes lyrical novels. :)

  • B for the bombs press pause for your moms, make the room silent...she don't approve of violent, games, she leaves resume activity.

  • They listen to it for a reason dumb fuck! Lost talent is no talent no more fagg dick sucker

  • Everyone that's stil poppinn.. Wtf dude cool j? Nas ? I didn't even know those fuckers were still alive..

  • Dudes seriously if u guys like Nas.. Fucking die.. Ll cool? Are u shitting me?! I hope ur dick falls off

  • @Rexthebarber who do you like ?

  • @Rexthebarber Are you fucked? You're so stupid, you just listen to what everyone else listens to regardless of the skill of the artist. You fucking sheep.

  • Lupe Fiasco is in my Top 10 Rappers Of All Time. Period. He's up there with 2Pac, Nas, Eminem, Big L, The Notorious B.I.G., Jay-Z, All of Wu-Tang, LL Cool J, and Immortal Technique. He hovers around #7, but sometimes I feel like he should be higher. Seriously, The Cool is one of the best albums I've ever heard in my life.

  • besttt

  • can anyone say slept on?? Lupe Fiasco is obviously one of the greatest rappers there is right now. This guy reminds me of Nas. People just underrestimate his greatness

  • This is happening in Uganda because if the Lord's Resistance Army (L.R.A.).

  • Comment removed

  • Dag I want this Lupe back! I know it's not your fault Lupe, this industry is forcing you to change in order to pay your bills.

  • Lupe, Ry Geus, J Cole and Kanye!

  • @RyGeus you dare put Lupe in leagues with J Cole and Kanye ? their is no comparison Lupe is the realest against those 2 sellouts

  • @SkyKnight26 I agree he is more real, but J cole is putting out some great, relative music!

  • @RyGeus i mean says you lets be real J Cole gives the people what they want ..bullshit music that willplay in clubs etc ..lupe changes production but his lyrics never die ..cole is a little too commercial

  • @SkyKnight26 J. Cole, Lupe, and Kendrick Lamar are the best new-ones out there. Eminem & Nas' time is up.

  • @Eziokilla9595 Eminem's still much better than them though. And he isn't inactive. His time ain't up yet!

  • @Eziokilla9595 lol who likes eminem anyway ? LMAO dont put J cole in the same lines as Lupe and k lamar ...j cole is lame and a sellout ..he raps to get paid and isnt himself ..but hey you do you

  • @SkyKnight26 The majority of the real Hip-Hop community that know his underground roots. And J Cole does deserve to be in the same sentence as the latter. He's just as good. I don't understand how he is anymore of a sell-out than Lupe. Cole World>Lasers. And, MANY people like Eminem. Check out his underground stuff.

  • @Eziokilla9595 he has no underground roots ...he's been fighting to get on a major label from jump ..listen dont compare lasers and cole world cause the differe is this ..Lupe's lyrics dont have change ..j Cole raps about money hoes, etc etc ..bitch i got that flame ? be serious homie all of you ride the bandwagon cause you say the same shit ...listen to this song ..if he's realistic why do i have to find an old song ? its not change its selling out he raps to stay relevant not to to be him

  • @Eziokilla9595 and bro if you wanna talk underground talk real artist's MF Doom, Elzhi, Blu, Dom Kennedy, Madlib, Cosequence etc etc ..J Cole has never been an underground artist cause when he dropped in NY he was with Roc nation, the only dude i know that has gone commercial and kept it real is Stalley im not being disrespectful bro ..but thats real shit ..also Eminems a legend ..he's lyrically talented ..meaning id he didnt rap commercially he's be a great battle rapper a lot of others wouldnt

  • @SkyKnight26 Ok, I got ya. Eminem is a legend. His underground roots are some of the best you'll find. Well, music is subjective so, you don't have to like J Cole. But, also, if your into underground, check out Kendrick Lamar. HiiiPower.

  • @Eziokilla9595 no no no i dont dislike j cole i just hate that he had to sellout and his music is gonna change, hell a star is born is genius, but like kanye he's starting to show changes..eminem is good his first two albums classics, kendrick is good so is stalley, im starting to like Dom kennedy but hey ..im more of an underground head you know ? i like that shit that everyone isnt on the shit that isnt on the top 10 i hate commerical shit you know

  • @SkyKnight26 Just for the record, Eminem & Lupe are in my Top 10 Greatest Rappers of All Time

  • @SkyKnight26 There like a million that I didn't name that I love. What do you think of Section.80?

  • @Eziokilla9595 i dont listen to that much kendrick ..what do you think of stalley the autobiography

  • @SkyKnight26 Not familiar with it.

  • @Eziokilla9595 look i up stalley the autobiography ..i love it cause they use a Mash Sample

  • @SkyKnight26 I'll check it out. If you want, look up Beast Ballad, Sykotik Rhymer. I covered it. No one's making you, but it'd be cool.

  • GREAT SONG TA C-WALK TA!!!

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

  • I'm sorry the third verse is pure gold "press up and Y one less Nigga Breathe."

  • prays 5 timea a day- talkin bout muslims that feel that terrorism is necessary. lupe is a muslim and i think the mumbling he makes are muslim prayers

  • food and liquor,superstar,the cool:most underrated albums ever!

  • Little Alex got a gun he took from his dad,

    That he snuck into school in his black book bag,

    His black nail polish, black boots and black hair,

    He's gonna blow away the bully that just pushed his ass

  • @KAMStudious It's black hat not hair...

  • Can anyone else hear Lupes voice from 1:39 to 1:48? it sounds like a subliminal message or something

  • @ectriand I hear it, it sounds kinda like chanting, maybe a prayer.

  • @ectriand he says astaghfor allah 5 times which is "i seek forgivness from allah" in arabic

  • dope beat shit chorus

  • Guys, if this song affected you at all, google "Invisible Children". Lupe is bringing the plight of these kids in Northern Uganda to the forefront of American society. So become educated and do something about it!

  • LIL KIDS STAY IN SCHOOL AND PUT THEM GUNS DOWN SMH

  • #throwbackThursday #littleweapon! #lupe #np

  • i listen to the song for the intro

  • @coop797 Search "Lupe Fiasco - Kids With Guns"

  • Sick

  • There are only a few exceptions where i like this type of music...this would be 1 of those exceptions ^.^

  • @avidpresnatalie actually this isn't gangsta rap, he's talking about the little kids that are being put into wars in countrys like somalia!

  • @kidcudieminemlilwayn i know that, but i usually listen to rock alternative/indie music sooo either way its still out of my realm no matter what hes talking about. and i didnt know little-kids-that-are-being-put­-into-wars was music genre.

  • @avidpresnatalie Hes not glorfyng children of war hes addressing it any retard with a brain would know that

  • @alpha493 and when did i even give a hint that he was even glorifying war?! all i said was that i usually dont listen to lupe fiascos music, geez READ it right!

  • Think you gansta? Popped a few rounds? These kids will come through and murder a whole town.  Damn. Really scary shit. Wish it wasn't true.

  • @pedrowashere2 It doesn't have to. Every day I try to make the world a better place (granted I'm not a person in a position of power. I don't even have control in my own life) the problem is that too many people are worried about pointless shit like who's going to win American Idol and/or only care about themselves and would rather buy expensive clothes and jewlery than donate to a non-profit

  • @pedrowashere2 Reminds me of K'naan and taking gangsters back to Africa to show them a real hard life

  • Joseph Kony :(

  • fuckin wicked as intro

  • i remember this i luv this video

  • At The End Of The Video Its Just Him Playing Call Of Duty

  • Lupe's dope, but I listen to this song for the snare. lol

  • lupe is great cause he actually raps about things that r relevant in the world.

  • 22 people have trisomy 21

  • lupe is the best he is on the top but you guys are to stupid to listen to him hes a smart rapper get outa her with he cant touch eminem or royce

  • @L3xi16 if you would read that comment, you would see that he isnt dissing Lupe, but saying he is WAY above Em and Royce...

  • lupe fiasco is good.. like usual... but Bishop G is just wicked..

  • It was good, but why did Gemini start rapping about video games? Was it supposed to be a metaphor?

  • @SmooveDoctor Yeah lol.

  • @SmooveDoctor I think it's him saying that it's like a video game how these kids play with weapons. I mean almost everyone has killed someone in a video game, but there's actually kids out there doin' it in real life.

  • Absolutely Sick O.O

  • 22 people are gay
