Lupe Fiasco- Ghetto Story(steady mobbin)

[PloiAm]

cant gt enough of that bass line

[PloiAm]

Best Lupe song, lyrically, flow wise, and music. Love it

[Amigo749]

steady mobbin...

[larsy1313]

CHECK OUT...

Eli G - Hold You Down

[elr456]

I think this is one of his best songs.

[Babyfacedblackjesus]

Real Hip Hop from a real artist!

[BENFICAISLIFE]

lupe still real he forced to change even with this change he still spitting pure truth but the music industry wont have it so they had to try something thus LASERS

[AdraindePanama]

@BENFICAISLIFE And he STILL got his message across!! :)

[Ayplus]

This song is so unbelievably real. Brings a tear to my eye

[oc93lion]

remember ya first time hearin this?..thumbs up if yu played this shit all the time

[blackoutbiz]

@oc93lion still do still do

[lasttruehiphopfan]

everyone search that kid sleepy conscious and his new track "No Apologies" that shit hot as hell his new mixtape insomnia is gonna be crazy ill!

[violentpotato116]

@SolidSnake240 suck a fat one faggot

[nias1865]

THIS IS THE BEST LUPE SONG. He put a totally original spin on what most rappers glorify.

1. Steady Mobbing

2. Hurt me soul

3. He say, she say

4. Theme Music to a drive by.

5. Intruder alert

[XMRWIGGLEZX]

@nias1865 That's what I used to love about him

[ManOnTheMoon70]

@nias1865 i would have the same songs but sub theme music to drive by with the cool

[joserto1]

What would be a good reason to dislike this song??? Stupid people

[violentpotato116]

First of all Eminem came out in the 90s ...hes old school, and second lupe is a girl name

[SolidSnake240]

@violentpotato116 pretty ignorant. just shut up

[ManUtd4Eva7]

@violentpotato116 em doesnt touch lupe sorry. flow wise nore lyricly

[IWhoCreate]

@ManUtd4Eva7 You ever heard Infinite by Eminem? check it if you havent i think they are nearly on par with eachother

[AdraindePanama]

@IWhoCreate I think everyone has heard Infinite, and yeah I still think Lupe's got Em. Listen to Lupe's song Glory, or anything off of the Farenheit mixtapes practically. More important is the message Lupe spreads with his lyrics, he keeps everything slick and dope while still keeping the conscious movement.

[BIGMrighthere]

@violentpotato116 Its also a boy name... Do your research. And Eminem? That guy has gone a lot more softer. His last 2 albums were dumbed down as fuck. Now don't give me the whole shit about L.A.S.E.R.S being shit, I know it is, but it still has a positive message. Last but not least, Eminem got found in 1998 or some shit. So he was not "old school" like that at all. Eminem was still going around battlin niggas like Lupe was doing. Lol owned with information.

[IWhoCreate]

@BIGMrighthere Did Recovery not have a positive message? and Relapse was kinda weird but lyrically great. Also i would say Eminem's Infinite album which came out in 95 or 96 was pretty old school.

[BIGMrighthere]

@IWhoCreate Yeah Recovery was good enough but then again he'll be saying he's out to kill somebody so I don't see where the positivity is. And yeah I just found out about the date, came out in 96. He spit real ish then but whats with him now? Aside from all this I just got irritated by the violentpotato116, this guys arrogance made me say all that. You cant compare Eminem and Lupe. They got a complete different style in Hip Hop.

[IWhoCreate]

@BIGMrighthere yeah for sure, eminem's music has had a significant impact on my life so i just had to defend him. Your right though they are way different and Lupe's lyrics in some ways are far superior to Shady's

[fvckinfool101]

lupe is one of my top 5 rappers of ALL time

its like you gotta have a college degree to understand this man haha

a str8 ass dude

[StylistecS]

Violentpotatoe116 is a dumbass

[violentpotato116]

@TuTuSpartan your daddys cunt? Or your sisters? And yea you already know about old school and underground so name one of your new pop rappers and ill name an undergroind cat who could annihalate him...go ahead and name rick ross, mack miler, drake, lupe, big sean, whiz califa...go ahead you pussy mommas boy

[806Noel]

@violentpotato116 WHOA WHOA alright im just gonna say every rapper you named in that list is complete garbage except Lupe

[Dedicatedtotruth1]

I must agree!!

[Tommypoich191]

@violentpotato116 your an idiot new school old school their just re adapted genre's dumbass lol and lupe eminem cudi all destroy

[violentpotato116]

Old school and underground rap kills this bull shit pop cRAP

[TaTuSpartan]

@violentpotato116 Cunt.

[EvidencEric]

wt is steady mobbin mean?

[BananassRYellow]

@EvidencEric it can mean alot of diffrent things like they are driving around in a car for no obvious reason they beatin someone up jus chillin with his people or what ever depends on the person saying it i think in this one he is talking about how cool he is but im not sure

[ThaATrain10]

You can listen to this with the lyrics right in front of you and you will still have to bring it back many times to understand everything

[23djTbone]

Wish it wasnt sped up

[UrAnIgnorant]

@23djTbone it aint...

[23djTbone]

@UrAnIgnorant i take that back i must of been listening to chopped & screwed before i listened to lupe..everything sounds fast after you listen to chopped & screwed

[waglife44]

this shit is tupac shit

[FCastillo000]

kudi, cole & lupe!

[katrai15]

@FCastillo000 NO NO AND NOO Lupe top those dudes hands down not sayin cole is whack and as far as cudi...............just let him die off like the rest of the horrible rappers

[FCastillo000]

@katrai15 what were you going through all the comments or something.. because i had to go back like six pages to find my comment.

[mikekingshawty]

we need more real music like this. it uplifts the people no matter what color you are. good for the soul. but of course the mainstream dont want the people to be uplifted. hurts me soul

[HaTTaKiLLaZ]

Real Lupe!!! Before LASERS

[DeezDaDon]

Lupe Fiasco

Andre 3000

Nas

Immortal Tech

Mos Def

Talib Qweli

(No Specific order)

[katrai15]

@DeezDaDon At Least you get it

[nias1865]

This here is the best Lupe Song Period. If he spoke from this perspective more he could be one of the best songwriters ever.

[ChicagoILLinois77312]

CHICAGO STAND UP!!!!!!!

[nym972]

lil wayne stole steady mobbin from lupe!! this was out long before lil wayne's steady mobbing song came out

[weareamazing9]

wierd how everyone knows lupe, but no one listens to him in the mainstream. ignorance of real rap.

[mhatimy1]

NEW FAVOURITE

[MATTHEW6332013]

I'm from the country-not the ghetto-but I know what he's talking about. :) AWESOME.

[Bettinuh]

nice



[TheFatboymike]

Like This If You Agree For Those 9Haters That Disliked This Go Suck A Dick Lupe Is Real And He's Telling The Truth In This Song He Prolly Telling Yall Story Hear Him Out!.

[ChicagoILLinois77312]

DIS SHIT RAW

CHI!

[MendosiA]

This a gem, Lu! Best rapper alive, hands down. I don't care what anyone says, he's UNTOUCHABLE lyrically. Hip Hop needs you, Lupe...

[YoUnGSpaCeLY92]

i had this song on repeat when it first dropped...and i was on MYSPACE THEN!!

[billilac09]

This song is just beautiful.

Reality described so vividly and lyrically it inspires me

im not even from the ghetto but i still get goosbumps when i hear this

like i live there or some shit ha

lupefiasco,andre300,eminem=bes­t rappers living

biggie,tupac,and big L=best rappers dead f&cuk what cha said

[BranSWED]

@billilac09 i don't get why everyone puts eminem in the top 3-5-10 whatever lists of best alive rappers.......

yea lupe is better

yea andre3000 is better

so is nas (nas is better than andre3000 actually)

common? mos def? talib kweli? once upon a time you could argue kanye west.. but not anymore. Fashawn, i mean the list of GREAT lyrical rappers goes on and on.. the only reason eminem is so highly regarded is because hes mainstream.

[AquaticNinja0]

@BranSWED plus immortal technique, canibus, army of the pharaohs, AKIR, john forte, beast1333, jedi mind tricks and dead prez. Its so sad that skills dont sell.

[nias1865]

@BranSWED Nas cannot out rhyme 3000, but both of them are underated. So is Mos Def.

[vicdarapper]

@nias1865 what cant out rhyme 3000 you bugging .....have you heard nas songs hes one of the 5 lyrical kings ..........you mean 3000 cannot out rhyme nas

[dashylock1]

@vicdarapper One question where is Nas now

[vicdarapper]

@dashylock1 wheres 3000 now.........he hasnt even dropped a song in like for ever.....

[evantstowers]

@vicdarapper he's to real, they don't want him to unless he something like Lasers

[rumbleking14253]

@vicdarapper Nas got killed by camron 

[glennboy28]

@rumbleking14253 hahahhahahahhaha



[rumbleking14253]

@glennboy28 why you laughing search it on youtube or google Nas got killed by camron its nothing to laugh at camron killed Jay-z , Nas and 50 Cent

[glennboy28]

@rumbleking14253 50 aint shit and every kills jay z without his rebutal

[billilac09]

@BranSWED mos talib and commom are on the same level as them and so are alot of underground artists though.....nd i agree but the only reason nas is better is because nas made wayyy more shit than him ... mos def lupe and nas are really the top 3 to me now that i thought about it.....

[chingychongo]

@billilac09 but mos def is a dumbass.. totally unaware of his surroundings when he was on bill maher, perhaps he was lit on the show since bill maher is a weed head. but all in all these folks arent intellectuals imo. theres much more intelligent hip hop artists than the 3 you've mentioned. theyre good though, over the rest of the suckers on the radio. they actually take some effort to produce a track

[billilac09]

@chingychongo fuck them go listen to my shit tell me what u think....

[chingychongo]

@billilac09 i think you have potential to be much better. perhaps you can work on poetry, pick which style of poetry best fits you if it be haiku, one of the simplest forms of poetry. all about being creative and making music out of something others cannot, meaning have a different style that people cant cop off you

[billilac09]

@chingychongo i kno what u mean i got real songs that are much more creative..... that just shit i spit on other rappers beats u kno what im sayin....i kindov rushed on those videos tho

[billilac09]

@chingychongo i live in louisiana i hate ppl down here's perception on music its alot of niggas that think lil wayne the best rapper that dumb shit im bout to get on some super lyrical shit fuck them niggas down here if they dont feel it

[TexasMusiz]

@billilac09 im from louisiana too and i agree with you. i don't listen to that fag either

[welive28]

@billilac09 i think mine would be lupe/j cole at three common/talib kweli/nas all vibing for number one and two but just cant be a 3 ykno

[marksist415]

doesnt hold up to lamont dozier tho

[eazysway824]

Album of life now condensed into a sampler....smh there's just not enough i can say about his lyrics. so descriptive it's clearly poetic genius

[100percentflymusic]

@hamiltonsanchezjr100 tru dat

[gufaaahhh]

my god

[skateking64]

"But through it all,

I hope we learn more than

how to be whores and,

how to move a ball."

Real shit.

[chicagoo17]

This is nothing short of a masterpiece

[djshotgun94]

this song is so deep.

[lightmajor1]

The coldest. Song gives me chills every time

[windycity708773]

chicagos finest

[chicagoo17]

This song is amazing

[Boatshoesbitch]

nine people have absolutely no taste in music.

[rainbow6n]

this look like a chat site

[rainbow6n]

lol

[100percentflymusic]

lupe deserves to be #1 on mtv's hottest mc list thumbs up if you agree

[abubakrECMS]

@100percentflymusic Lupe doesnt like MTV tho :P he and almost every sane person think that they are a bunch of brainwashers...so that MTV shit would be more useful to atlantic records rather than Lupe...Lupe+Pac 4 life :)

[welive28]

@100percentflymusic not anymore what he comes out with now isnt as good lasers dissapointed me but i love the old lupe so beautiful and even though he had one bummy album i think hell return to form

[SearsTowerMonster]

Lupe all day chicago's own

[smartymouth88]

looooooooove this song.lupe aint nice like he was back then

[ddavito86]

first song i ever heard from Lupe fell in love with him instantly

[muelian]

Man in comparison to so many of his contemporaries Lu is just out of this world lyrically. This has gotta be in his top ten. Lu spits the truth, FNF up hope Lasers is up there with FnL/The Cool 

[royalnash]

word how can you compare g rap to lupe. they both nice but in different ways

[LaZyLAYUP]

he is muslim like mos def and both have skillz!!!!

[carrotop431]

I always thought this song was called ghetto story, but I heard it on the radio as steady mobbin. Which is correct?

[papertiger7]

@carrotop431 Well, when it was first leaked it was titled as Ghetto Story but the actual title for it was Steady Mobbin. The song was originally on Food and Liquor...but it was removed.

[Lupe4Wade]

@papertiger7 Where can i get this song?

[papertiger7]

@Lupe4Wade Download YouTube Downloader from download.com and follow the instructions. 

[Lupe4Wade]

@papertiger7 THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! IN BIG CAPITOL LETTERS :)))))))

[seoulboi]

@papertiger7 what album is it on now?

[papertiger7]

@seoulboi It's a leaked Food and Liquor track. Old stuff.

[seoulboi]

@papertiger7 I have the food and liquor album, but its not on there :(

[sins7x]

@seoulboi it was removed from the album due to leaks. i think the song is officially still unreleased (unless it was on a mixtape)

[IEtherianSoul9]

@seoulboi Look at the Pre-Release of the album, I got it on Filecrop!

[Mssigh24]

@papertiger7 What's the title of the original intro song for "Food and Liquor? " It was on the leaked version.  I think It was replaced by "Real"

[EJMH]

@Mssigh24 I'm not 100% sure, but I think it was Theme Music For A Drive-By

[srulers]

@carrotop431 steady Mobbin is a song by ice cube

[Specialmonkey02]

@carrotop431 where and on which radio u heard lupe

[xLive2PKx]

@carrotop431 Strange where you live? I never hear real shit on the radio.

[interesting187]

@carrotop431 Where do you live to be able to hear this on the radio??

[carrotop431]

@interesting187 College radio man, its good shit. I live in the twin cities tho



[mntz321]

the beat in the beginning would ve been crazy!!!

[ErickJett]

Lupes freestyles are really sick. You guys should check out Shyheim freestyles too. He is an east coast/wu-tang kinda rap.

[balla4life799]

LUPE THE BEST. HIS SONGS HAVE THE BEST LIKE TO DISLIKE RATIO

[FlyyDefinitionBlack1]

word...but jay hovah is da god mc

[FlyyDefinitionBlack1]

Seriously under rated...top ten without a doubt in my mind

[iamtheallstar25]

@FlyyDefinitionBlack1 he 1 or 2 in my opinion

[4mAALIKcHIN4]

Listen to this after Some YM stuff. you will be like "Phew! finally something i can feel instead of just be bombarded with."

[hgbnjkljhkgjvhjk]

This song is deep man 4real!

[FreestyleBigD]

1. Rakim 2. Big L 3. Notorious B.I.G. 4. Big Pun 5. Mos def 6. Nas 7. Kool G Rap 8. Slick Rick 9. Percee P 10. Lupe Thats not very good, but its off the top of my head.

[poppinbottles4life]

@FreestyleBigD u talkin bout my list and u put fuckin Big Pun ahead of Nas.Are u out yo fucking mind!??And you put fucking Kool G Rap ahead of Lupe??NIGGA KILL YO SELF!

[FreestyleBigD]

@poppinbottles4life YES I PUT BIG PUN BEFORE NAS. Go listen to his shit. I mean LISTEN TO IT. Not scim over it. He has some of the sickest shit you'll ever hear with a smooth flow. AND KOOL G RAP IS WAYYYY BETTER THEN LUPE. He basically created multi-syll's and mafioso style rap which made Raekwon so good, and is the reason Nas' album "It was Written" was done because that was mafioso style. Do your fucking hiphop homework scrub

[purdue2009]

@FreestyleBigD

Dude multi syllable ryhme patterns aren't that impressive, sure to individuals who may be uncapable of thinking they be impressive, but Pun and Kool G etc, can't hold weight to people like Nas, Lupe,Hov, use more advance forms of poetic devices like alliteration, imagery, metaphors and double entendres and wordplay sorry you just got into rap, but don't mention no multi's as the epitome of rap.

[FreestyleBigD]

@purdue2009 Did I fucking say that? Multi Syll's ARE impressive when used right. When you can story tell using multi syll's its very impressive. Get off your high horse, considering I know that your probably just some retard sitting behind his computer that D-rides youtube. I'm more involved in the music scene then you ever will be. I live in Seattle, and i've talked to Ra Scion, Prometheus Brown, Grynch etc, im at everything that goes down.

[poppinbottles4life]

@FreestyleBigD do my hip hop homework??what da fuck do u know stupid ass!!u made a fuckin top 10 w/o tupac, wtf?? and i done listened to Big Pun.he aight but he cant fuck wit Nas!!

[FreestyleBigD]

@poppinbottles4life Tupac was over-rated as fuck. He was poetic, but so are 90% of underground hiphop artists, he had no flow, no delivery, his voice is terrible, just got blown up because of the west coast/east coast ish. G rap in his prime>lu in his prime. Anyone that knows hiphop will not even disagree with that.

[ianph11]

@FreestyleBigD nah you just cant call pac overrated..

[poppinbottles4life]

@FreestyleBigD are u out ur FUCKIN MIND??Tupac mastered flow and delivery u ignorant fuck!!anyone that knows hiphop wants to punch u in ur fuckin face!

[cdotk131]

@FreestyleBigD i'm not gonna punch you....but to say he had no flow and no delivery, you're making yourself sound like a jack off. lupe is nice and all, but you're making pac sound like some amateur.

[FreestyleBigD]

@cdotk131 I'm not comparing him to Lupe.

[bdoyle23]

@FreestyleBigD , You say Tupac is over-rated and you compare G-rap to Lupe.... you should really stop it 5.... funny acting fuck ass niggas..... unity > division

[cdotk131]

@FreestyleBigD but you said "he's overrated" i never said you were comparing him. you're saying he was pretty much garbage and everybody else seems to think you're half retarded as well. so what are you saying homes? gives respect to those who deserve it, don't disregard him like a step child or a side piece

[poppinbottles4life]

@FreestyleBigD And Kool G Rap will NEVER be better than Lupe...what the fuck is wrong with you

[aRiZeDuaLiiTy]

@purdue2009 Lupe isnt touchin Pun dude.. I dont know what ur talkin about..

[bballano31]

@FreestyleBigD that's a dope list off top.

[FreestyleBigD]

@bballano31 Thanks, finally someone who at least knows something about hiphop around here, I could come up with a much nicer list, but I think I'd have to make a 15.

[wakaflockamyers]

Lupe 2 real 4 niggas, his rhymes just go over most ppl head...

[ErickJett]

@wakaflockamyers i hear what you saying, most ppl as soon as they dont hear about making big money, getting "bitches", and hustlin on lupes songs they just dismiss him.

[OnPointAndOnTheGrind]

@ErickJett yep i agree

[DGskaterK]

8 dislikes, thats real cute , 8 lil girls that love lil waynes music deprived of real music finally thumbs this down, damn.

i swear to god lupe dont let hip hop go ur our only hope in this world to keep this genre still alive.

[dabeefstarter]

@DGskaterK...bitch fuck you wayne go hard

[bballano31]

@dabeefstarter wayne is doesn't go hard. he's just good at what he does. and last i checked, just being 'good' isn't good enough. he reached his lyrical peak about 2 years ago. he's been steadily fallen since then.

[iamtheallstar25]

@dabeefstarter yeah Wayne do go hard, but this Lupe

[youngsavagebf]

heard the first 20 sec. already knew this was gone be good

[perfectabdi]

Lupe fiasco is definitely under estimate he is in top 10 best rappers

[KiPkutter]

Lupe: HIGHLY UnderRATED.



[drizz011]

LUPE THE GREATEST RAPPER LIVING RIGHT NOW, EVERY SONG he do PAINTS A FUCKIN PICTURE EVERY SONG!!!!! the sad thing is people just dont give him a chance and I DONT GET IT.. also immortal tech ppl sleep on that nigga heavy, WHERE THE TRUE MCS OR M.S's( motivational speakers) at ?????????? 5 stars this track

[kaikincaid96]

I don't have a order of rappers I like but I like, Tupac, eminem, lupe, nas common, Immortal technique, greydon square, Dre, harmony n bone thug, J cole, B.O.B., Kid Cudi, Fort Minor aka mike shinoda, 50 cent ... well his first album and maybe a few songs like flight 187 etc.

[Sambino]

lol at using big words...so what a kidd got his dictionary next to him while writing rhymes. now hes on the top of the entire hiphop cutlure?? how the blood clot do you put mosdef next to eminem ? ? lol sheep. blind cattle. hiphop to the sheep is just some new cartoon teenybop sound with a pinch of "big words" lol !! back in the days big words was routine. now the iphone teeny bop generation is facinated by synonyms ...lol

[swiftversey]

@Sambino that's why a lot of these new artists seem like they came out a rapper factory...no more real artists...I feel like the realest artist would be makin' music regardless of the fame and fortune...not these days tho, mawfuckas just tryin' to sell ringtones and shit.lol
