      I feel this in my soul I’ve started my own business and my success is based on giving people a chance. But in life you will cross paths with good and bad people. But what I take from this song is never get discouraged or distracted follow your dreams because the show must go on.

      +ƐƐƐɐʎdnllɐ who cares what they rap about ? Lol ............. This generation hip hop is so confused and if you think hip hop is all about booty drugs and trapping then you don't know hip hop, Old school hip hop showed examples and described life and changes .. New school hip hop all about guiding young people to sell drugs and fuck every person under the sun and turn up everyday .. That's not hip hop, of course we listen to it but if you wanna be technical that's shit 😅

      He is a legend of hip hop.

    I was locked up in a maximum security prison in Joliet called Statesville, right outside of Chicago. All I had was a Walkman and this song on a cassette tape. I would listen to this song every day, looking out of my little cell window at all the barb wire and brown grass. the song would cut off halfway through so I would rewind it over, and over. Until one of the older guys told me you can flip the tape and it has another side to it. I would listen to this song and dream of everything I was going to do when I got out. This song has got me through times I thought were impossible. Now I’m glad to say I have accomplished everything I dreamed of and much more! It’s crazy how you learn to appreciate the little things in life that you never noticed before. Much love! No more ramen noodles or locked doors!

      He never vanished. The world just stopped listening. Last year he dropped one of his best albums. It has great depth, an outstanding theme, and has good production. Lupe is still developing and incorporating in his music some of the most thought provoking concepts and ideas. He is truly a pioneer.
      In the last album Drogas Waves, the theme is 3 parallel themes in 1. AND he develops the idea that black people and minorities deserve to have legends/mythological stories where they are the central protagonists and through these new legends/stories, these innocent victims of oppression (slaves and refugees) whose lives were taken, can be given the heroic and generally more positive narratives they truly deserve and with such, immortalized as greater-than-life heros. Ok but why do this? What is the purpose? What can a group of people gain from fictional stories? Can a history full of oppression and death for your people, full of bad winning over good innocent members of your race ...can this kind of history be a stigma for your people? I could go on and on! This is the kind of idea that one could do his graduate thesis on! What rapper is exploring such concepts/ideas in their music? Ill wait. Dont just give me a name. Give a summary of another example.
      No, he didnt vanish when the world needed him. People just stopped listening and caring. People just completely stopped holding morals and principles above money and fame.
