i saw him at bumbershoot '07 and he was really chill...but he is certainly high enery i guess...i like his shit and all of his mixtapes but let me so one thing...im sorry but his dancing or whatever is cheezy as hell
you're a dumbass for saying Gillie wrote his shit, get the fuck outta here there's legal papers out to the public that prove Gillie took part in about 2 tracks off Tha Carter
Matt Santos: Look up in the sky look up in the sky look up in the sky... you thought i was down you though i was gone. you thought i wasn't around i left you alone! look up in the sky [echo] just look up in the sky [echo] see that i'm everywhere... everywhere! shining down on you. FNF Up
so far from what it seems Shining Down has much better lyrics. Lupe is showing mainstream artists that you can make dope beats and still make a song that has good lyrics.
Wayne isn't a bad rapper... He just realized what sold records in todays society... Can I blame him? No... But I respect Lupe, he didn't dumb his shit down for nobody, and hes real...
naw thats not true ... wayne is a terrible rapper ...the thing is .. if you make 100,000 songs some are bound to be good ..... but he jus puts some of the weakest stuff out and i dont think he is dumbing down i think its all the drugs gettin to him
Yeah but before he started dropping material (and getting it leaked). He made good music.The Carter 2 and The Carter 1 are both good products. The Carter 3 was set to be like the first 2 but because someone leaked all his stuff he mad to make a fast product. So his fans and anyone just tuning in was left with "The Carter 3" which is what most people judge him off of and call him shite.
hahaha....he actually released a statement about that. now i dont think this is exactly what he said, but it went something like 'i need a haircut, but yall need records. ill stay nappy to keep yall happy.' haha...classic Lu
Yeah, it was funny, cuz at the Grammys I saw him, I was like, DANG........then, after that, I'd been looking up some concert vids of him, then when I found this, I almost didn't recognize him.
that dude Lupe is SICK!!!! this should be hitting radios soon.....although we might see a June release of the album,like he was gonna do the Great American Rap Album....
I made a really cool rap to this
please check it out and my other tracks

but i dont think there is any breathing excercise which can prepare my mind for a music world with no Lupe
