Lupe Fiasco comment pages are the only place i can find other people who are truly aware of whats going on in the world and people who listen to music for substance rather than catchy hooks and club hits. Lupe is a living legend and a lyrical genius who also made me aware of so many things. FnF Up Get em Lupe
Lupe is one of my fav rappers but i hate islam.....heres my explanation and i hope others will listen...i used to think every religions had its goods and bads but after having someone show me each verse of the quran i realized how bad it is..........#1 every women is a mans property..WTF....#2 WHOEVER DOESN'T FOLLOW ISLAM IS EVIL IN ALLAH'S EYES.....yeaa
@Deadlygangsta The dude that showed u each verse of the quran has no idea! dont believe everything until you can read it yourself. But still nothing but love, don't need to spread hate brother. Lupe is truth!
@afghankillah valid point man, i agree with you.....the person who told me hates it for many reasons, he is biased....i live my life not judging any religions now, because in truth every religion has been corrupted...there will always be a selected honest and good people in each religion...i personally just believe in god with no religion....every religion has its greats and its issues...i apologize for my view 2 months ago.
@Deadlygangsta yes you're right, i agree with what you say and respect you alot for replying to me like this, we need to stop hating on eachother and hate on what's really necesarry and going on in this world. i thank you for this, nothing but love brother! peace,,
@fernandoarrue87 thanks brother! yeah i think like this, i mean theres no need to hate eachother we're all here for the great music right? religion doesnt matter to me, we're all bleeding red homie
Quran is jst da bible but simplified i aint muslim but anything you see in the bible its in da Quran too its basicaly da same religion if you think bout it we all believe in a hell and heaven ONE GOD and a Anti-Christ. We all sinners both RELIGION sins. Im a christian too nd ill admit it.
@7Danny71997 what religion are u anyways? if u believed in God at least u wouldn't be such a judgmental deuche bag. And for that God have mercy comment, that's pointed to u now, asshole.
@7Danny71997 I am Muslim, and I realize God Is the most merciful. I know this, because I read it in the Quran. Have you read the Quran, or the bible at that? Because If you have read any of them, I dont feel you would have wrote that comment.
@7Danny71997 you do realize that Lupe Fiasco is a muslim right? your ignorance is why Osama attacked the United States.... go kill educate yourself moron because if you actually compared the two the only difference is the prophets.
"cause they'll gas you up like cole pacer" lol did anyone else catch this line ? cole from the show "martin" is always talking about his (pacer) his car lol good one lupe :)
Someone should make a vid titled "Lil' Wayne" then put a lupe song in it and have text saying why lupe is the best rapper out there... the would get pwned
43,000 views!! put some fake hip hop lil wayne flo rida name down and it would be one million plus!!! just goes to show hip hop dead just glorified pop now!!! sad to see
lupe, artist of the decade! fuck that BET top 10 list they didn't even consider him wtf is that? but 50 cent and rick ross can make it??? something is definitely fucked with the game....hip hop aint taking this shit no more.
@CVplayaya321 loll i don't see where the lyricism is in what i wrote, but I do write. thanks homie. good on ya for listening to lupe the killa, he's my inspiration
i don't care what lupe is. he's one of the VERY FEW rappers spittin truth. dis whole world is confused on religion. none of us know whats truth... man is corrupt
@100kpkp Humanity, is going through adolescence, this is a vital time. If we survive, long enough, we will go somewhere, I guarantee; conflict rises, correction. BE PATIENT, hommie and follow me on you tube. lol
@crocopliddell who said i knew? My comment was referring to ppl knocking lupe because he's a muslim. im not muslim, christian nun of that, just searching for "truth". Whatever "it" is, we can say it's reality. And Lupe Fiasco is one of the FEW rappers talking about our "true harsh reality". You know dat, just like i do..
@100kpkp I wouldn't say no one knows what is the truth cuz i know Christianity is the truth I try my best to make others follow but if they chose not to i would not hate or kill them for it. Lupe is Muslim and i dont care.. he's still a human and my favourite rapper.. just that i wouldn't follow his religion.
@TheAnarchyRulez i never said he was.. my point from the beginning was that lupe is muslim i'm christian but that dont stop me from listening to him just that i would follow his religion. that's all i'm not attacking anyone i'm just say that i believe in one thing he believes in another people can actually respect each other religion.
obvs you lack the critical thinking process to extract the question in my last comment. I wrote lupe is a modernist muslims, he believes Islam has to change to fit society.
that makes him a kaffr to the majority of Islamic scholars like ibn kathr, ibn tayimmah
Listen how do you know Lupe believes Islam has to change? He makes music and i bet he knows its haram. So his sins are between him and allah(swt). Lets not judge but start bettering ourselves and our relationship with allah(swt).
Well that show how much of an idiot you are and how of a looser you are and that you have no social life because Lupe is not even in the Nation of Islam dummy. He's a part of mainstream muslim and it's only like a billion of them. White,black,asian,latino in every country, continent and nation in this world! Islam is the future like it or not in 10 years the majority of people on this earth will be muslim so get an education you ignorant fool!
I did my homework and I passed all my classes with honors you're nobody to me at the end of the day to be honest as i'm nobody to you but you're the one that's coming off as uneducated.
@chiladin both of yall are still immature. Its the damn internet. What both of yall say doesn't matter in the end so y reply. And I did da same thin as u A in all da IB classes and shit. Doesn't mean anything.
seems like you have a pretty good grasp on it...why are you asking?
In case you're really wondering...he is just saying he should be with his fellow Muslims praying instead on the corner hustling with the non-believers.
it means i should be with my brothers praying. and my moms. instead i'm on the block hustling wit niggaz unaware of the true conciousness within. this track brought tears to my face
"all my blessin's i take em as a lesson, make em into questions and relate em to the present. Should i take it as a present? Or a penalty, but everything is from The Man Up Stairs. I could barely sing cuz the man up
in the game, MUSICAL CHAIRS, there is always at least 1 less chair than it is players. As the music plays the players circle the chairs, when the music stops you have to hurry and sit. The person(s) left standing loses. Go sit your ass in the back on the floor!
@brkjeff Also with that metaphor he means when the music stops/when I die ...will I have a chair or be seated on the floor/will I be in Heaven or seated in Hell.
@bigthingspoppinoff Your right. now that I listen again, that interpretation of the line is more fitting with the overall meaningful and religious tone of the song. It's all just a tribute to his genius. Forget double, his lines have quadruple meanings with endless possibilities for the imaginative. The best lyricist of this generation by far.
@brkjeff I don't know about that, but I thought the meaning is obvious once he mentioned the man upstairs. I'm super sure nigga meant that when I die, will I have a spot in heaven.
"I put it on paper Cuz they would put you on for paper But most of these niggas is paperTen and a half by 8 Blue lines 3 holes Hit they ass wit 8's Flat line 3 holes Cuz they a gas you up Like cold pacer And leave u in the cold Witout a coat Wit a cold That's not gangsta..." LUPE is true hip hop

will I have a chair or be seated on the floor( a winner or a loser) ya dig.

@brkjeff Also with that metaphor he means when the music stops/when I die ...will I have a chair or be seated on the floor/will I be in Heaven or seated in Hell.

@bigthingspoppinoff Your right. now that I listen again, that interpretation of the line is more fitting with the overall meaningful and religious tone of the song. It's all just a tribute to his genius. Forget double, his lines have quadruple meanings with endless possibilities for the imaginative. The best lyricist of this generation by far.

@brkjeff I don't know about that, but I thought the meaning is obvious once he mentioned the man upstairs. I'm super sure nigga meant that when I die, will I have a spot in heaven.
