Its Sad 2 See Lupe Go So Soon. The Game Needs More Real Ni66as.
The game was changed by Lupe, and he is gunna quit while he is on top. Smart move IMO.
lol this lupes version of soulja boyz swag?
this was a tease, i was expecting him to spit and he didnt even spit one bar but when lupend comes out, it will be a landmark day in hip hop, never in my life have i anticipated a cd more and im gonna get 3 in 1, god damn
Man 2008 was a good year for Hip Hop, but 2009 will be better, Lupe Fiasco, Eminem, Dr.Dre, 50 cent and Jay-z are all dropping there CD, cant wait for it
FnF up
u sure about dre?
how you forget royce da 5'9"
LupEND is gonna be the illest album of the year. 2009 is about to be the third fire year in a row!
But I was expecting a freestyle... where da freestyle at!?!
Ya but I love watching artist perform. It shows their real personality. Just look at Kanye who spends insane amounts on his show and they come out fire. Then look at lil wayne who is in the dressing room so fucked up on codeen that he cant walk. And Jay covers his ass because he is a real nigga, never trying to piss off his fans.
It just shows a direct connection to what type a person a nigga is by what they do infront of thousands of people that idolize them.
My2Cents. Fuck it.
what are you guys talking about.... 2008 being a good year for hip hop? what are you, Tards? compare 90's to 00's
No comparison, Hip hop Was dead, ITs slowly reviving now.
Dre Em 50 Cham Jada Luda Jay-z Lupe ect. ect. Will make sure of that
2009 hip hop will be revived, Mark my words
You used the word "Tards"?
Nuff said.
Cham Who?
Chamillionaire
wtf ect. stand for aint it etc.
Shits Raw... Lupes A KILLA
P.S. DRUNK AS A MUFUCKA AND I AIN'T EVEN ON YET!
Looks like a rock concert to me.
he actually uses live bands, which makes the music 10,000 times better than some rapper rapping over their song with the lyrics on it still...
as for the "freestyle", i'm sure it was just a thing to get the fans hyped up, i doubt he really meant much more from this...
lupe is my favorite rapper, and i have mixed feelings about LupE.N.D. a part of me CANT WAIT for the album. but i know that once that album drops he will be done, so with that being said, i guess i can wait a while haha
I agree, live music with bands is way better.
Lupe aint goen no where. He going to be back. I hate when nice artist say they retiring cause it aint never true lol. I refuse to believe this nigga is gonna leave with just three hot albums out in the game. Shit Lupe gonna be back. Trust that.
whats that beat??
fuck 50 he is not hiphop
im definately coppin this album...no ifs ands or buts.
lupe is nice and he probably want to practice his islamic religion and im proud of that may allah bless him with whatever his doing with his life inshallah he will be back sooner then later
I'm just going to feel sorry for all the people at will just now get into Lupe and feel his music from this album (his last album perhaps) instead of following his whole career since Fahrenheit 1/15 Part 1 and Food N Liquor. I do think this might be his last album so he can go down in history with three hot, quality not quantity, albums. And his last album most likely be a triple album, i don't know my history but who else has done that? But for someone who loves music i don't think that he is completely done... maybe writing in his career or a supergroup with Kanye and Pharrell? still though i cant wait to see.
im speakin 4 evrybody on defsounds with dis. "we'll miss lupe". though he released 2 albums so far, goin to be 3. the change in lupe was loud and clear. thanks man fr showin us the definition of hip hop. hope the crs album goes well and FnF U.P. to all the ppl who understand his music. cuz we can just pray him & game make a comeback.
u mean gonna be 5
Lupe is kinda nice but he dont deserve all the credit he gets. First album was weak and the second album was nice. He brought a little something that the game was missing, but he still got work to put in. He goin out at the top of his game, but he not goin out as one of the greatest.
U wildent my nig. Food and Liquor was just as good as the cool. The cool was more like a conceptual album so he stayed within a theme. There are some lines from food and liquor im stil trying to figure out.
why they gotta cut it off mid-song
Lupe is one of the greats, and that will be cemented with LupE.N.D.!!!
was i under a rock the last few months why da fuck am i just findin out dat lupe is leavin. anyway i'm coppin dis album, lupe changed da game shame to see him go so soon.
Ran into this guy by accident but I think he's actually on to something with this tune... just spreading the word...
