Lupe Fiasco-Say Something Freestyle Appreciation

[grownmendonthate]

Still not convinced,everything about these cats is just soft,its not there skill,they have skills lyrically,its just that there personality and voices are just straight up soft,not my choice of music,thats all,i need that real gangsta music,not something made up from the standpoint of a person that hasnt been through anything[Grownmendonthate goes to cd collection and pops in ''Ghost of rich porter'' ]something with some realistic feel to it.

If that's how you feel, okay. But that reasoning makes no sense.

On another note...

"I'm ballin like the tops of pawns,
Circle of in-fluence gettin bigger like ripples thats on top of ponds"

The wordplay just made that line so much better. I feel like dude's flow is catching up to the lyrics.

Probably my favorite song on this tape. Not to mention, the tape is incredible. Dude is too talented.


'Events recent that lit a fire under him like pots and pans,
rockets and, I [eye] up in the sky like helicopter cam....
and you down there in the traffic jam, from here I've
seen a bunch of fake %@#* like avid wrestling fans
came up from the bottom of the eye exam zooom,
now I'm like the biggest G up in the room
Still hard to see me like the truth on TV
or the roof from the sidewalk, I don't flo [floor], I ceiling..
My ma'ma said they need me, cause...
I'm made from the best stuff on earth like Snapple Tea Leaves
They glass is half full so I spit into them like Celie.."

Dude said he spits into you like Celie. Sheesh.

You want something with a realistic feel, so you turn to Jim Jones?

as if rappers really live the @#$% they portray

90% of rappers are soft/normal as hell in real life.  at least Lupe is a real dude who doesnt front like hes something hes not. stop taking hood fairy tales so seriously

SMH @ this ignorance.  Appreciation of good music has absolutely nothing to do with where you are from.  If its good then its good and if its bad its bad.  I am not from the suburbs and like all three of the artists you mentioned.


Anyways,  Lupe bodied this track....just way too many quotables.
