[BENFICAISLIFE]

fuck the haters lupe speaks the truth no matter what album he makes no matter how much they try to shut him down if u stopped supporting lupe because of lasers u are an asshole lupe one of the that come every generation tupac was a legend and a genius because he spoke the truth lupe is a legend in my eyes and a genius too

"I'm a musician that happens to rap" is the best description of Lupe Fiasco's creativity.

@DylanTingley I understand the rhyme scheme but he is still speaking the truth and i like his music still. FOTP i like too. and American Terrorist III. im still a huge fan. he is a lot better then other rappers that some listen to.

[DylanTingley]

@BhFanatik17 Think about it. The rhyme scheme he used on lasers doesn't work over soulful beats of the cool of food and liquor. He made that album straight up and backlash came out during the leaks. Atlantic let him say that shit. Look at Friend of the People it sounds like Lasers pt II. He's going in a weird direction now.

[BhFanatik17]

@DylanTingley How did he lie about that shit?

[DylanTingley]

Lupe Fiasco is officially full of shit. I was actually the biggest fan until Lasers, he straight up lied about that shit.

The best rap lyricist ever. Ever.
