Lupe Meets With Atlantic Records President. Good News Coming?

[Fox1994]

So far away....

But better than "LASERS - Who Fucking Knows?"

[Woy]

Watch it get moved back again, lol.

In all honesty, I might give this a listen when it finally comes out, despite my dislike for Lupe.

Why do you dislike him?

[Woy]

Why do you dislike him?

No particular reason really. I know he's very talented, but I just don't like him whatsoever.

:hand:

Do I need to start a "somebody post an ill Lupe track so Woy can stop sleeping" thread? lol

(Admittedly, you guys started that thread because I never admitted any talent level of Mr. Budden... So I'm doing it now: I can appreciate Joe Budden's talent, I just have no interest in his music.)

[Woy]

I've listened to a shit load of Lupe though, and I've even have some of his music on my iTunes, so I'm not basing my opinion on him from one radio-generated song like you did with Budden. I just don't like the guy, that's all.

[Misogi]

Mixed feelings.

If it has more songs like shining down, cool.
If it has more songs like I'm Beaming, then i won't even listen to it.

You didn't like "I'm Beamin?"

Yes, I saw the parentheses, which just led me to believe you are just saying Budden's talented, when you still haven't listened to his music.

The difference is that I've actually listened to a lot of Lupe and don't like him. You've only listened to Pump It Up.

Well, you say that's not his best song, and it's not horrific (it's not a good song, but as far as hype/party songs go, it's not terrible).

Honestly though, while I can't imagine that being the only song I've heard by him (which I in fact only heard because it was in the second Fast & Furious movie), I can't think of anything I've heard... I guess I'll go sift through that thread. :bird:

Hey, we're supposed to be talking about Lupe! =P

[Houston]

After I first heard it I concluded that "Dumb it Down" had to be one of the best rap songs this decade.

Trash. Lupe with a slow flow is just garbo pretty much nowadays. It was cool on Switch (The Science Project), Tilted in any colour you like(Even though that was a just a remake of a fast-paced song he had already done), and some shit like Game Time, but now a days, I'm Beamin',and especially that BMF remix?

Garbooo.

I'm Beamin' was lyrically one of his best songs.

I guess you're entitled to an opinion.

I'm Beamin' was lyrically one of his best songs.

I certainly thought so. I really liked it. But I like all Lupe's songs, so I'm impartial. :ionno:

Over what?

Daydream?
Hurt Me Soul?
Lupe The Killer?
The Cool(song)?
Theme Music to a Drive-By?
1st and 15th is Back?
Real Recognize Real?
Pen and the Needlz?
Dead Presidents Freestyle?
Trials and Tribulations, or the remix, Pressure?
The Emperor's Soundtrack?
Much More?
Comin From Where I'm From?
Slow Down?
Angels Freestyle?
National Anthem Freestyle?



"Let you in on a secret..but you can't leak it!" Lupe has tons of lyrical shit. "I'm Beamin" was trash.

And I've been listening to Lupe since before The LEAK. You couldn't convince me that that song belongs anywhere near Lasers, Great American Rap Album, or any version of L.U.P.end. Hell, it's questionably worthy being a part of Fahrenheit 1/15.

Sidenote: Anyone ever go back and listen to his old shit and ponder how good it really was? Fucking ridic mixtapes.
