    Average freestyle....

    He used the concept of the Twilight zone into a song. Metaphors were on point.

    But yall eastcoast ? just like that gritty, "I'm ? , grimey, sellin coke, and beat up ? " music...lol

    See what I'm saying how many people would even think of using a Twilight Zone concept for a song, chalk up another "poorly executed" concept song.

    Lupe needs to get some soul and feel to the music, stop making that robot feeling music. All that "I'' go far, I am a star, I am at the bar" ? , make some personal music and stop sounding so damn technical mf.

    He has a flow, he just doesn't switch it up. Then again it's not like Lupe does either, no one will ever mistake him for Pharoahe

    I know your gimmick is saying outrageous ? and all.

    But you're not serious. You can stop lying now usmarin.

    Lol @ most of the artists that do that you shuffle under the "THEYZ A BACKPACKER" bus.

    Ohhhhhhhhh

    Translation: Damn, he got me.

    It's not like dude's forte is storytelling or The Cool was a halfway concept album.

    I mean really. Why the ? does him not doing this and that make him less of a musician? A rapper gotta do everything another rapper do to be better than him? Word?

    "AYO, Y DON'T THIS ? YO-YO MA PLAY THE ACCORDION? IF HE CAN'T DO THAT HE REALLY AIN'T THAT GOOD"

    How did this go from "Is Lupe better than any Wu member" thread to a "Lupe Appreciation" joint? Homie got talent but lets be serious. You can post 17 of Lupe's best work and it will easily get humbled by Ironman. Lupe been officially in the game, what, 4-5 years? Compare his music to the first 5 of Ghost solo efforts. It's a no-contest. Easily...

    Name Ghost's and GZA's best songs...

    Bet I can name Lupe songs that will body them.

    Nah. You will name songs you personally prefer. Fact is, Ghost precence during his earlier years was felt. I remember when people were complaining about Wu doing solo joints. "It won't live up to the groups efforts". The diversity won't be there, people said. However, Tical, OB4CL and Ironman personally put the rap game on it's ass. If you're young, you surely won't remember this. Lupe's music came and went. The impact was far from monumental. Many like it, even more ignored it. He has talent, but as far as being a better artist than Ghostface, it's a ridiculous argument...

    Individually compare.


    He's not better than ? and Ghost. I'd also say Gza gives him a run for his money. Some of you think that "Lyrics" define an emcee when there are clearly other factors Lupe lacks in. Lupe is not seeing Methodman's flow, it's not even close.

    100% postive cause Lupe's flow is not as verstile as ? 's. Doesn't mean he doesn't have a good flow but it's not ? 's Level. ? flowed along the greatest flower of all time and held his own. Jay Z outshinned Lupe without even trying hard on "Pressure".
