I love Lupe Fiasco.
same
I hate that it took a drug case for the content to be pure but it puts him up with KRSOne and J-Live. Lupe, especially proved to my kids that you can stick to your values in hip hop, and be a great success
Host:...Drill Music from Zion....
Lupe:....strike 1
Host:...Soundwav
Lupe:...strike 10... Self activates 10% Lupe to get by for the night...
AS SOON AS HE SAID FROM ZION I WAS OUT!
I’m back. SOUNDWAV?!?! WTF INTERVIEWER. ARENT YOU SUPPOSED TO DO RESEARCH?!
@@heirapparent4802 lol I said this all in fun with a hint of seriousness
The eye hook metaphor on the mountains was elite! Dope shout out to the Free Solo movie
I remember watching Kick, Push on 103 & Park. It was around my birthday at the time and I loved the song so much (even tho I wasn’t a skater) that I asked for his debut CD. Best decision I ever made I fell in love with him afterwards. Once I started searching his mixtape shit, that cemented his status as the greatest lyricist ever for me. I love this man, he’s the only celebrity I would be star struck if I ever met. I would ask him a million questions afterwards 😂
I still listen to his mixtapes as much as anything else man had Lupe the Jedi on just now
@@paulm394 that’s a good one but his FH115 mixtapes are goated. So many crazy bars on there
"Don't worry about that, he owe me favors"
Lol real spill
Who yall think he was talking about
Glad he spoke on being blackballed and the way Real politics work in America.
Time stamp?
@@User_01273 @52:00-56:40 but the entire video is context
@@seensay2132 I ended up watching most of the whole video, thanks for the timestamp. He is so right about how The electoral system makes people feel as if they have done enough, when in reality voting is probably one of the least influential ways to change society for the better. They got people putting so much effort into an action that is ultimately useless, when people should be directing that energy towards more productive means.
Edit: sorry for the rant
@@User_01273 all good bro! Lol glad you listened. Like with his music, His words deserve a wider audience
Here are my takeaways from this interview…
1. When you’re inexperienced with interviewing, it shows with the constant interruptions, trying to make the convo about yourself, and overall poor pacing of the interview. Lu could have dropped gems but interview homie just had to try and keep up with the man instead of listen.
2. Lu is so slept on that the name of Lu’s producer and the name of his most recent album was butchered. I get that Lu is hella enigmatic but even Brendan Dunne of Sole Collector/Full Size Run did his research and made Lu more comfortable with the mixtape references and all. Lu really showed homie grace when Soundtrakk and Drill Music In Zion was slighted like that.
3. Active listening is a skill. Listening to respond is not active listening, rather the interviewer should listen to understand. Cause dude was interrupting so much that when Lu spoke, we couldn’t get the whole picture he was trying to paint.
100%! That FSR interview is top tier quality
#1 is why Most podcasts suffer and won’t last. Folks who don’t put in the work for the craft get exposed. #2 and #3 💯💯‼️‼️
Brendan dunne really be on his shit as a journalist!
I studied and worked at Harvard. Lupe is so true. Kids up there try to be something they aren’t when they need to be them. Luoe ia my favorite rapper besides pac and big L. 🐐
Nike STILLLL hasn't made Lupe SB Dunks !!???
This is wonderful. Lupe’s insight in the second half of the interview. Amazing
Thanks for sharing this interview! Some really interesting bits of Lupe history, and knowledge about the music industry and politics in America.
Thank you 🙏🏾
Lupe ❤❤❤
First and !!!! Lupe is the goat 🐐!
Powerful truths 🫡 Lupa da GOAT 🔥🔥🔥
Long Live Lupe Fiasco
Lupe always has something interesting and unique to say. Love watching his interviews. Like the way he thinks a lot
ask clearer concise questions thats aren't so drawn out.
Dope!
This interviewer should have just had this conversation privately with him..
I wonder if lupe looked at him like that because he said drill music From Zion(which is not the title) instead of drill music In Zion (correct title) 🤣🤣. Like how you gonna get the album title wrong???
Also said soundwave instead of soundtrakk . Ridiculous
Nervousness would do that to people. Gotta cut people some slack sometimes.
He is nervous. I'd be nervous too sitting across LUPE
🤦🏾♂️ 😅
Lupe for the W
Lupe will go down as the greatest
on the east coast skate boarding always been in hiphop. Atleast for as long as I can remember.
There’s something inherently bothersome about inexperienced interviewers, and this dude is no exception.
❤
🙌🏽🔥🔥
🤩
dope
My favorite rapper ever
That hoody and jacket nasty.. like the color my daughter plans on attending there
Free Chilly!!!!
5:20 we caught that Lu
I think the mountain analogy is good, like yes someone does need to go actually drill the holes so you can put into the hook carabiner and go to next one. That's why there is like names for routes, because they become a route for you not really being able to go another path without a drill or free-solo the thing (or do your own holes while at it). So yes I get it like as an analogy for getting inspirations and blueprints from people before you, yes it would abide to Lupe with the first records as it would to anyone. Also yes he have left a marks (hole) for others which is pretty rare even when rapping and being a big name. Still like after Lu's first 3 records it is kinda Aesop Rock type of exactly free-soloing 😂 Like dude, you just talked about making an album in 3 days and it's way more insightfull than most of the rap. That's pushing the boundaries what can be done at certain point with a certain mind (everyone have some boundary they can push if not able to do that). It is still interesting way of saying it, of seeing the big beautifull mountain from a far, but the tiny holes count so much more for the sport (rap) being where it is (the beautifull mountain).
Unfortunatelly you have labels that aren't as interested in art as they are at money. Like yes you need profits to keep making art but it's ridiculous to the point of not releasing songs for it pissing off say plastic indrusty. Since all of this is interconnected in USA. Like they want the kids to go and spit the gun bars and some go and live the lifestyle because "it's cool". It must work because since 90's, from the conception of privatized prison systems they have been in on it, the prisons get more money from goverment per inmate and then overhouse and make profit by not keeping the standards up. Label owners having stakes in them. This being verified by Ice Cube and Bone Thugs so it's not even speculation. Then as said in here, the music business is super crooked in US. Like it was led by mafia in Sinatra times and it's not like methods have changed to better. Offing people ain't of the menu. Drogas Light needed to be released by hacker group because Atlantic wouldn't do it, even if it was ready and people making petitions to release it... Lupe's last album with label.
I guess they have been now more open to Cole and Kendrick type of rappers since they know they have the youth already. Kendrick is anyway from Aftermath that is first the rapping and then other business. Cole I don't think have been seen such a force to make any game impacting moves to change it, even tho just now recently started to be taken as The Guy from these times. Also labels have noticed long ago that since attention spans have shortened, young people will Always from now on put first some "fun" gangbang and bang records before anything that needs even remotely actually listening. Rap is also merging with being an internet personality and gimmicks over.. rap. Like they for no reasons didn't use millions on marketing the last Lil Uzi Vert horrible bs album. Even the fans cannot barely excuse the album but it doesn't matter, since it is way more about the idolitary than the music itself. Never before have a musician could put out That big pile of garpo with such a marketing (when these days marketing is barely done thru adds but this was) and the artist not get toppled way down for the embarrashment. Still the guys out sales tours to the maximum cabacity. It's a joke and not a funny one.
This interviewer interrupting Lu and making this about himself.
wow you really not lyin
Bruh!!! Very Annoying
U that dude huh??
49:30-58:35 💡
This guy is a horrible interviewer but Lu was great
Free the big bro chill
Tough being in the interviewers position because Lupe is a teacher and can speak technically while volunteering open discussion at his own pace...
Dude how do you join SOSA and why didn't this exist when I was 12
I was in sosa but i was in a nursing trade class in highschool
53:39
Repeatedly emphasizing how avant-garde a person is does not constitute an interview. Coulda wrote it in a card bruh lmao. Provoked some interesting responses from Lu though.
Well he wants to use some big words around Lu so let him 😅 There is million interesting question to ask from him but people kinda goes over the same things. Lupe's ig-lives are way more interesting. Him just talking, what of them is saved. For example I've noticed his really only response with words to Royce was over an hour. I can just find like a 7 minute snippet of it (by very quickly searching tho. Since he says in it that "I've had talks with Illuminati" which is in the snippet and it wasn't like then when he said it a thing artist would just mention like now, so I had to back then pause and go back. Said have had talks, propably to reqruit and/or threaths, Obviously not a member, but it was still a time it was kinda yeah right thing but him saying it with straight face no joke, in the whole hour really was no joke. So you had to be like goddamn, I guess they do be on that sh!t, I don't think this man just throws That out there without meaning it. Especially since it was one part of very crux point of what haven't he done for Royce try and minimize him like he did).
Strongly disliked how he started this interview lol
Soundwave…..?
My new rap name….
This interviewer is kinda bad…like really bad lol
Ain’t he suppose to be grading papers?
You’re hilarious 😂
Interviewer 😢
BECAUSE YE AINT FRIM CHICAGO
Lol then where is he from? I guess glc, don c, really doe, and no id ain’t from Chicago either
He’s said Westside on one song and Southside on others so yeah no one knows where exactly lol.
This is nutssss .. I'm never voting again.. I wonder who Lupe was talking about.. don't worry about it, Obama owes me favors. You didn't know it but you opened doors that you couldn't see..
Very frustrating Interview…..
wasted lu's time
Most unfunny dude alive
Lupe is the best emcee this century.
