I'm from Grand Rapids, which is about two hours away from Detroit where Elzhi came from. this dude inspires me, and im hoping that i can surpass him someday. I remixed the Motown 25 song, its in the video response. I wonder what others think about it.
dont come to and Elzhi song and talk about lupe... for the record, elzhi would murk lupe coz elzhi hasn't even reached his prime yet.. hes versatile and he hasnt even tried double time yet, but once he does i kno he;ll kill blukka blukka
@eRicSoNsAmofO who still use murk haha come on son, anyone who knows about lyrical ability and versatility knows elzhi could not fuck with lupe, say no more
@ThaListener word.. its really close anyway neither one shits on the other..lupe got complex metaphors and storys with double meanings while elzhi has more of a traditional style and paints a picture everytime
lupe is a better lyricist nobodys lightyears ahead of lupe theres different styles i know a bunch of heads who think rugged man and celph would smash on this dude so to each is own
thus in that sense, time does infact speed up. cus if time slows down u can get more dun in a shorter amount of time. same way when u speed time up u get a more dun in less time. the concept of time is so fickle and malleable its a joke.
i really (and i mean this) dont want to start arguing, but wat u are saying is contradictory. if time slows down and say u did x things before, and u still do x things now, u still did x things but in a shorter span (of time). if time speeds up and say u did x things before, assuming u still have x things to do, u wont be able to get them done.
ur right weed is a depressant, but u "hit the weed to make time speed" becuz u dont want to deal wit the shit in ur life. smoking for some is letting life (good and bad) pass u by. weed can be a life numbing agent.
elzhi is crazy, but you buggin' for talking down lupe like that lol. lupe goes over people constantly, so a lot of people don't realize how incredible he is, regardless of whether or not you consider him "mainstream"
I am not talking down lupe, but praising elzhi. I own all of Lupe's albums plus the numerous Fahrenheit mixtapes + Rhyming Ape. Elzhi blows Lupe out of the water in terms of word/lyrical play.
@SuperSkaJoe have you ever actually paid attention to Lupe's tracks or just heard them? cause i listen to both and think they are lyrically in the same zone... eLZhi probably has a better flow though, When it come to depth they both got it
@JaLomangino It's not that I haven't given him a chance. I've been listening to Lupe for years. Own all of his albums and mixtapes. Elzhi's just simply in a league of his own right now.
my nigs elzhi. yo he's ahead of his time really tho these cats claimin this title of "greatest rapper alive" need to take a trip to DETROIT I SEE U HOMIE!!!!
yeah he could but right now people thrive on that mainstream shit and sleep on true hip/hop. until that days over Elzhi wont get the credit he deserves. fucked up shit i know...
Elzhi IS one of the sickest to do,it HAS been going on for years,he IS underrated,but educated people know whats real,thats why i dont even argue with people who say this dude is better than this dude,know what i mean?In my opinion though LUPE is the best out,every song he puts out he rips lyrically listen to his albums and mixtapes, thats why I think him and Elzhi should do a cd together or at least some tracks that mess would be sick!!!
Lupe Fiasco is nasty man one of the best out there but i've heard he is giving it up because of people with no talent is making more money than he is with his real shit...... like dumbass Soulja Boy with his retarded dance songs that seem to be so fucking famous for some reason I don't understand it
hes planning on retiring early, but not at all for the reasons you said... he's gonna stop making albums cause he's sick of the record labels, not because he wants more sales.
Its all gay, even lupe is gay for retiring. Music and hip hop should be a passion, should be about you doing you, and nothing else matters, not what other people are into, whos making more, who's selling what? Makes no difference, there shouldn't even be so much money in the game. If lupe was true to his music, he would just keep making it regardless.
i cant believe i just found out about ELzhi ....he fckn dope
