Lupe deserves so much more love than he gets.
He gets enough love, people put him in top 20 or 15 already
Nah, he just out here dropping gems for those of us who ready, he aint out here trying to impress anyone or be famous. That shit aint its all hyped. out to be. Do what you love, with people who are real, that's all you need.He has had and could still have all that love if he wanted to put himself out like that.
He's Been Good Already....
The man is like MF Doom, the reals know that he is a goat, top 5 for sure.
That DROGAS Wave though..... that's a gigantic record that the media slept on. I want a whole doc on that one. Never thought I'd see Hip Hop be able to be more cinematic than a Pink Floyd record. Incredible work!
I agree but u also gotta understand there’s no way an album like drogas wave would get media attention. It was always gonna belong in the underground category.
I wasn’t that crazy about it, more of Food and Liquor fan but I guess that also has to do with nostalgic purposes for me.
@@himoverthere6716 what about tetsuo and youth
honestly the media been scared ablut what hes talking bout for a while
@@Coldlife565 there were some songs on there that could’ve got some radio play tho. Kingdom, Stack That Cheese and even Timbuck2 Day have some mainstream appeal to it.
*Lupe Fiasco too underrated asf🔥*
I know right!! 👊
not really. to the mainstream yes but OG hip hop fans rate him highly
@@wasabijones4571 word
Lupe the reason Rap Genius was created. 💯💪🏽
Lupe just sounds like such a humble person. Opinionated but humble and respectful
and complicated
Lupe one of the greatest lyricist of all time, shoutout to Genius for this interview
The most skilled lyricist for sure
Lupe songs be like 5 layers deep
Tetsuo and youth is ONE OF THE BEST ALBULMS OF ALL TIME!! And food and liquor II the great American rap album is still unbelievably relevant, and an incredible piece of work.
Only issue with it is the beats. The beats on the first Food and Liquor are about all 10/10 and II didn't sound anywhere near as good.
@@kingcam0775 peace brother, I respect your opinion. Truth be told on my first listen to T&Y I didn't know how to feel about it, but the beats grew on me, and the subject matter and the way it's presented, in my opinion, is masterful.
@@williammaisonet8228 how do u feel about drogas wave
Thread why Lupe is the GOAT
He made Mural
He made twilight zone
Food & Liquor
He made failure 🐐 shit
Goated because he made Food and Liquor & The Coolest. Like 10 years before Mural
He started rapping
First time I heard Lupe was on "touch the sky" and ever since then I've been a gigantic fan. Lupe is the best lyricist I've ever heard!
Best by a galaxy
This man is easily top 20 of all time
Greatest rapper ever.
Idk if he's the greatest, but he's my personal favorite.
Top 20, at most
@@misterarchiver if you consider every factor like influence,sales,lyrics,albums(everyfactor u can think of probably). But in terms of lyricism, hes probably the best
@@t-4579 I am considering every factor of rap like flow, lyricism, wordplay, influence, discography and production. According to those factors, lupe is top 25 or 20, just one song called "Mural" and sort of complex lyricism doesn't determine your greatness, their are more factors of rap than "lyricism" and no i am not even considering sales or anything price related
@@misterarchiver looking back i should have said best not greatest cause greatest takes in stuff u just said in which case someone like jay is defo greater than lupe(even lupe said so). But best is just purely the raps in which case hes probably the goat(also could be nas,black thought and some more)
Interview was fire, Rob 🔥! You always come with the background knowledge. You’re very confident and respectful with your journalism. And you did a great job interviewing Lupe. Takes a special person. Love Lupe’s artistry. Been rockin since Kick, Push 🙌🏿💕
Solid interviewer. Kudos to Genius.
06 Lupe was a legend. FOOD AND LIQUOR ftw
Was?
Still is
Still is
06 and 07. Let’s not forget The Cool
2020 Lupe is beyond legendary. He got better with time.
Mixtape Lu isn’t talked about enough
Cause its a mixtape that doesn't age well
@@misterarchiver the first farenheit and jedi were fire.
@@misterarchiver wym
I really really loved this interview. Everyone should keep making their art until they in the grave. Don’t stop making art.
"First got it when he was six, didn't know any tricks"
"matter fact first time he got on it he slipped"
Reads : Lupe Fiasco
Voice in my head : La-ser
Alright, already the show goes on
All night, till the morning we dream so long
He'd slap you for that
I actually love those songs
@@morelyfe1891he wouldn't
King Lupe himself
been WAITING FOR THIS
*August 11*, 1973!
Birth of hip hop!
My birthday!
Rob called the “seldom” but it’s “models” backwards. Which is “sledom” which is to be taken as “slay dem”, a term the modeling community uses.
you're right, that was my bad.
Kick push still on my playlist ✊🏾
This is a great convo, one of the best episodes in a while.
VonTelevision glad you enjoy it. Fr
Lu gotta start a hip-hop podcast
I'm from the future. He now has a podcast, with Royce da 5'9. Called The Lupe And Royce Show
@@yusefdaramay2177 I'm from the future. Sadly, the podcast ended after a beef between Lupe and Royce.
@@Aviishek. right lol
Blessed is the interviewer who ask questions, and because they are actually interested in the answers, they allow the subject to speak and express themselves. Dope interview.
funwontan glad you enjoyed it
Thank you, Genius, for sharing. Much-Love.
Lupe so raw
Dear stranger may your parents live for 100 years ♥️
I appreciate the sentiment
Many blissings your way!!!
Cool to hear the GOAT talk with Genius! We need more in depth conversations with Lupe
Great interview
Lupe Chicago's Finest🔥🔥🔥
❤️❤️🔥🔥
I was one minute in when I realized how long this interview would be. THANK YOU ROB x LUPE!!!
ScreamGeronimo honestly could’ve went 3 hours lol.
Rob Markman I can tell! Thanks for keeping a naturally flowing convo while still checking the boxes 🙏🏽🙏🏽 As a Lupe Stan, I appreciate this look into the mind of the artist.
Great job with this interview
Man I loved this peace
We need more Lupe Fiasco’s in the world‼️👏🏾
Had to pause and go check out the House project. I like it. It's short and sweet.
ITS A CRIME WE NEVER GOT CRS ALBUM
You should of known back then that wasn't going to happen
genius means many, just a fun fact to remember, another fun fact is that lupe is one of the greatest of all time.
I just realized we the same age and like the same things, swore he was my lost brother lol. He made being a black skate boarding cool, love anime cool, reading cool being open minded cool! 👊 Can we get an album with SkyZoo???? PLEASE!!!! 🥺🙏
Genius was made because of Lupe
Genius was a completely different organization, bruh so how did he made it?
The infamous 🔥🔥🙏🏾
Wayne Gretzky, not MJ with the quote
I only know him from the song “Battle scars” idk anything about him now. Might check him out
Listen to kick push, Paris Tokyo and touch the sky with him and Kanye
Your missing out
You missing out listen to every album!!
the cool and tetsuo and youth great albums
Just check The Cool saga, Tetsuo and Youth and Drogas Wave concepts. Lupe is more than a rapper, that's for sure.
Lupe is the goat
Ow lupe
Wise man knows what's up in life
Literally 99% won’t see this but if you do, God bless you, stay safe and have a wonderful day.🙏
Literally shut up
Your welcome 🙏
