I'll see yall in either Charlotte, Nc or ATL. Haven't had a chance to see lupe live yet, but Kanye puts on a good show. I've seen him twice so far, one show had a great vibe, but he was in a foul mood at the VA show.

He gets on some preachin shit sometimes on stage.

Has anybody seen N.E.R.D. live? bet that's gonna be killer

WHY ARE PEOPLE HATING ON KANYE.......
he makes real good music and it doesnt matter where he is from
all it matter is the quality of music he makes and for the people sayin Lupe sucks you must not be listening to his dope as album.
