[one7six5]

@thepeakoflife rapper* and hes a very smart one ...very bright he is...

[thepeakoflife]

@one7six5 Can you verify that Yoda?

[one7six5]

@thepeakoflife sweet you got my yoda reference ...from just this video alone and hundreds to thousands of other videos of him you can tell hes smart...listen to his lyrics..

[thepeakoflife]

@one7six5 OMG I wish I could repeat something some other idiot said. lol

[one7six5]

@thepeakoflife that made no sense lol...who said that...if someone else said that the just verify it as true since you're the only "idiot" i see talking about a rapper knowing knowing about anything...good day sir..

[thepeakoflife]

@one7six5 You can see me and hear me? Anyways I thought all you morons believed in freedom of speech here I am minding my own business, until some punk comes along to oppress me. You know what are? nothing.

[stackmoney516]

we give these rappers so much and only a couple come into this, more should step in, we made them to be famous, now its time for them to help us

[jaestarseed11]

check my video out called prophecy...At the end I said it," I'm not a revolutionary, but I'm evolutionary...

[Jhny909]

RESPECT EXISTENCE or EXPECT RESISTANCE

[patclark94]

I don't agree with some of the things Lupe says, (mostly that Obama is a terrorist) but I love the dude to death. He's not just another let's go out and party artist. He realizes his position and wants to make a difference.

[MrLilort]

@patclark94

yeah..but Obama is just there, he has no power. he just does what the men behind him,wants him to do.

[doubledutch6rudder]

@patclark94 in that phrase he wasnt refering to obama specifically but the USA government and in turn all presidents. He was saying that the US government is the root of the terrorism

[jtreal1000]

capitalism is not bad is is corapt by origance its like a horror movie i like horror move but dont like slasher if a movie start with simple horror the you start seing a bet of slasher and by the middle you seing more and more quater to the end the blood start to make you sick and now it start make you seing this not horror and the slashing get worse and worse. this exactly wats going on

[LTGtreez]

im still getting a ak hahaa

[tribalcream420]

LUPE CAME TO OUR OCCUPATION IN OAKLAND AND PERSONALLY DONATED SUPPLIES. KANYE/RUSS CAN GET THE GAS FACE.

[henrikroxs]

funny how people dis kanye for showing up but don't dis lupe.

[carman726]

@henrikroxs cause he aint no faggot kanye

[lbnylax]

@henrikroxs Kanye doesn't have much to say about this movement unlike Lupe & Immortal. I bet he hasn't donated a single dime...

[Catskywatcher113005]

You almost don't see the red part, it look cornered than a mf by the green lol

[Catskywatcher113005]

The like and dislike bar is at 90 likes vs 1 dislike. Why is this familiar to me?

[shawn4]

@Catskywatcher113005 maybe the "dislike" was clicked by accident

[Catskywatcher113005]

@shawn4 yes, that's probably it.

[Marakulous43]

Lupe Fi-ASS-co is only defending his jihad brothers in arms

[neffrotiti]

I can see this Kat in a tin foil Hat. some good Points.

[PokervACE1]

fair play for your support

[Boris82much]

The anti-semetic hate and I DESERVE WHATEVER I WANT BULLSHIT is finally coming out. They want their dope decriminalized, they want the Big Brother Benevolent Government to give them money (or their parents, whoever has the most whenever they want it), they want free education, free medical, free this, free that...but they sure as fuck DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR IT. They are stupid, from all the damn marijuana. They don't get it cause they don't want to work hard and tow their own line. Disgusting

[jackdanielsryan]

Bet you got some sick ass Joobs

[txl301md]

@Boris82much Ah yes of course the goal of this movement is to socialize education & healthcare, & to make weed legal. Oh & they dont want to pay taxes for these things. HAHAHAH. These people dont want to work even though their signs say they want jobs & even though many of them do have jobs but support the movement as volunteers when they come home from work. This thing is not about corporate influence in politics or anything complex. Its all very simple. Pathetic 99ers. Lolol. Good one.

[WhereisZEMBLA]

@Boris82much Strange how this anti Semitic spin got started in order to derail or destroy the movement , but the truth is no one is falling for it, We have no hate against any one human being because we are all human beings and brothers and sisters. Peace and Love and Logic will overcome lies and hate. A Better world for the human race is what everyone I have asked has wanted and if you believe this is an anti Semitic movement take a look at my doc where a jewish woman from Israel supports OWS

[Stringyheads]

Great to see celebrities taking a stand with their people should be more of it support like this gose along way. You can't put a price on this.

[OrganicKing]

copyright asshole

[pukster101]

If you don't own a tin foil hat, your crazy.

[joedoublet]

big up to lupe fiasco . my question is where are the true rappers mos def talib kweli the roots wutang clan, common etc etc ? dont be afraid and show support to the 99%

[elitepersecom]

@joedoublet Hey there, Talib Kweli actually DID show up and spit some rhymes for the OWS crowd. :3

[joedoublet]

@elitepersecom thanks for the info "true rappers for true event" big up to talib

[yossarian1633]

@joedoublet i seen video of kweli down there.

[smallman720]

@joedoublet talib went down there bro and the roots are speakin out too

[smallman720]

3 people are gonna end up shovelling shit in china for three cents an hour

[makaveliu2b]

@joedoublet Kweli just did a song "Distractions", video recorded at Wall Street during the Occupy movement

[Takumeh]

@keepemhonest2010 Yeah, cause Lupe was totally in for atlantic records to control his music career. You are very informed.

[debtbully3]

Bankers+prison=Justice!

[zlyable]

@debtbully3 Bankers + Death = still not enough

[ChaveeGroove]

Lupe Fiasco (Wasalu Muhammad Jaco) was born in Illinois and has an estimated net worth of $8 million dollars. A rap artist, writer, and producer, Lupe Fiasco also owns his own record label. He has released three successful studio albums, which all reached the top 20. His second album, “Lupe Fiasco’s The Cool” was certified Gold, and his third album, “Lasers”, debuted at #1.

[KeepEmHonest2010]

Ok Lupe you wanna fight the man and coporate greed? How about you ask for all of your albums to be pulled from wal-mart (WMT) and target (TGT) . Better yet ask Atlantic Records (TWX) to yank your music from I-Tunes(APPL) and tell TicketMaster (TKTM) to donate all of your concert revenues to the impoverished. Now go home and make sub-par hip hop.

[Whatisright]

@KeepEmHonest2010 did you watch the video or just comment out of your ass before it started?

[therealnubian]

@KeepEmHonest2010 You have no idea what your talking about right? And I know for a fact you don't know squat shit about Lupe Fiasco. If you did, you wouldn't have pulled this straight out of your ass. Lupe isn't lil wayne remember that... if he was a sell out, he would have taken over the rap game long ago.

[JL0vely]

hey lupe since ur down with the cause how about you sell that rolex & help a fellow american out and pay for her grad school LOL...

[WinkyMaeve]

@JL0vely lol !!, his points are still valid tho...

[NoCigar1991]

I'm from texas and I don't have a gun. And I'm not going to get one.

[NoCigar1991]

What book did he just say to get?

[domiciliphile]

@NoCigar1991 Pedagogy of the Oppressed, by Paulo Freire - a solid recommendation.

[acjaynes]

I hope that wasn't his (Lupe's) friend sitting next to him. He hid his face the whole time like a little punk...

[Kammanderkool]

@acjaynes hes being smart and hiding from the media

[Agentdogman]

@acjaynes Did you want to see his face?

[merkingGuy]

you know

[wtfisthatsmell]

lupe, dont get involved with wearechange.

[gaberealflip]

When Lupe speaks, he gives me hope.
