    at what?
    rapping? hell to the ? no, rick ross' career wouldnt exist without the beats.
    oh but you stupid idiots say "oh well, he killed 50 cent" lmfao, 50 cent was wack way before the rickycop beef
    the rickycop vs. lupe beef would be funny, in the sense that lupe would ? the cop over and over and over, and he wouldnt understand it

    just.might.b.ok
    see how ? ? it looks when u put ur username at the end of each post? thats me makin' fun of you in case you didnt notice, after all, you're a rickycop fan

    Oh no, some lame on the internet is "making fun of me"....What am i to do now? All of my confidence in life is gone....

    GTFOH!!!

    I will say this, if Ross calls Lupe out then he will have to respond because he initiated it in the first place.

    "this is exactly why ? in the streets ain't ? with Lupe"

    i'm gonna need somebody to define a "? in the streets" and why it matters or not, i doubt pompous white people are ? with him either does that mean anything? whether it be Oprah, Monster Kody, or George Bush if they listen to them fine if not more power to them but how is the ability to impress one particular group of people a determinate of a rapper's skill?

    wrong.


    btw...that freestyle wasnt meant to blow anyones mind. it was more like "hey..heres a mainstream rapper who is at a show and decided to freestyle for 9 minutes".


    to say what Jay Electronica is doing is fresh or even NEW is hilarious.

    Its a matter of opinion of ? ........ Lupe been out for almost 5 years and only song i ever liked from dude was "Hip Hop save my life"
    With that being said.....believe me.....i love music....i checked for every Lupe album every Lupe Mixtape.....after heard American Terrorist
    i was like yea i will ? with the lil ? ....but he dont excite me....u know....? saying J.Cole is super nice.....he dont do it for me...
    they Wiz Khalifa is supposed to a great artist....he dont do it for me.....as u can see the internet set trends on the internet...
    ? on the internet believe the same things......i think some these artist owe me some money...... because i be asking ? on the block
    ? in the hood.....hey check this ? and let me know what think......its not that these ? super lyrical...and they going over ? head
    they flat out boring.......they have sense of touch of whats going in the real world.......that why people like Wacka Flacka breaks into mainstream with
    garbage ass music......because guess what the masses relate to it.....i swear i never heard of Wacka Flacka until they showed a lil white girl dancing with
    baby.......on worldstar acting a fool to "O Lets Do It"....... i swear that video blew up he owe that chick for actin a dam fool on Worldstar.... if it wasnt for that white
    chick dancing i probably wouldve never gave it a listen......but after listening to it......i dont like that song but its so many bars in the song i feel...
    just last night it came on and i was about change it........and said u know i will listen to it for the ? of it.....and boom he said some ? that i was like man i got
    hear this ? again......he some ? about shooting ? in the head....kabooow.......and then he said ooooooww........lol.....? was whack but funny
    he having fun man........thats what u supposed to do

    This is whatever you make it. You can base it on lyricism, catalog, impact, whatever.

    Me...I have him perched somewhere in like the top 6.

    That ranking can either go up or down, depending upon the merit of his work from this point on.

    Lupe Fiasco is not a Top 10 Emcee All Time. Right now he's between top 25-50 All Time and some would agrue that. Where he goes from there?, who knows but the work thus far doesn't merit Top 10 Status.

    Based on sheer lyricism, Lupe IS a top 10 emcee. And he has two classics under his belt.

    The only thing that hurts him is impact on the game, which is probably subjective anyway. But that could probably just be based on his low level of proximity. He's only like 5 years deep.

    2 Classics? No, "The Cool" is not considered a Classic, dope album and even a solid follow up but it had so many holes there is no way that album is considered Classic. "F&L" is probably his only Classic and even that can be questioned. Even if you look at lyrics alone that does not make him Top 10. Again I like what someone said about Lupe in another thread. He stands out cause he's in a sea of wackness right now. Lupe in the mid-90's would not have survived and even if he could of survived he would not have been noticed like that.

    Lupe being in a "sea of wackness" is just an aversion to what is really real.

    It's an excuse that elitests like you use to make your fallen heroes appear better than what they actually are.

    The current crop of today's emcees, ranging from Crooked I to J. Cole to Joel Ortiz to Jay Electronica, is not necessarily an advantage for Lupe because NONE of them are wack.

    2 Classics, you ? are out your ? minds. Stop the ? ? man, classics are albums like The Chronic or College Dropout that shifted hiphop and influence a generation of rappers. You ? use that word way too much, when in actually there are less than 30 classic albums in hiphop.

    Sorry, Lupe is a fan of NaS. Same Level? No. "ILLmatic" lyricism is still something even Lupe wish he could accomplish. Lupe is what the 90's babies hope can be NaS level. Right now? No. I'm still laughing at the thread where dudes put Lupe's albums above Big's. LOL @ Lupe in 90's with NaS and Big. There is no way with the material I've heard that you can rank him with the GOATS.

    First off, Lupe is better than everyone except Face, Kane, Cube, Nas, G-Rap, & Rakim. Second off, it's my opinion, and I don't need or anyone else to c/s or say. "U have a good opinion on Hip Hop'. I don't run with the popular opinion, I just speakin' my mind. I think Lupe is top 10 of all time.

    ? always talking how rappers were better lyrically in the mid-late 90s. no they werent.who rapped lyrically like eminem, lupe, ti, drake, lloyed banks, fabolous, ortiz, budden, lil wayne, and a few others in the 90's????? very few. Who Warren G? Coolio? Snoop? Pac? Please. Even Biggie cant ? with eminem lupe ortiz lyrically.
