Lupe Fiasco “kendrick is not a top tier lyricist to me”

[Billy Ocean]

my question to u is do you actually BUY KL's music or do you just download it for free? cuz if you think he's that nice, surely you support him financially so he can keep making this hot azz music right? I buy my favorite artists music. When I download and artists album and I like it, I'll go and buy the cd or vinyl. Most of the time I won't even open it. I'll just keep it sealed. I'll unwrap it if I really want to read where the album was recorded and such. So do you support ya mans? Or are you just someone that's going with the in crowd for the moment.

I bought GKMC and TPAB. Most the other shyt of his I get from the streaming service I pay for and from here, just like most the other music I listen to. And I give a fukk what a crowd does or think. If I did, I'd be on here dikklicking Lupe like alot of dudes on here. I'm just a dude that likes what I consider dope Hip Hop music.

 

[Billy Ocean]

U see this thread right, I gave songs that Lu gets quoted for.

Meanwhile kdot stans like they always do when they are asked for quotes gets to Juelzing and saying" Kendrick is great for his storytelling, y'all need to stop hating he #blackexcellance"

Bro, I clearly remember dudes posting dope Kendrick lines in a thread that bozo vulture sirbiatch creating and y'all Lupe fanatics just brushing it off everytime. Y'all need to stop.

Superstar had pop leanings and was palatable to people who usually don't consume rap music. That's why it sold like it did. Not hating, I like the song.



fukk outta here. He not getting stripes for a washed up rapper avoiding him and a fukking "text battle". fukk is wrong wit y'all?

Text battle :prodigylol:
Isn't Daylt the gay troll?

 

[ineedsleep212]

Someone who makes subpar music cant tell a lyricist who makes great music shyt,point blank period

This man fought to get Lasers put out. Plus when lesser lyricism is by far more readily quotable than lyrical rappers.you cats have no leg to stand on with this Kendrick doesnt have quoteables. Even your favorite lyricist quoteables probably werent that lyrical.

He doesn't make subpar music tho. I will agree that Kendrick has made better music but gtfoh with this. No one is saying the man is trash goddamn lol. I've probably listened to Kendrick more than any other rapper in the last 3 years but c'mon now. Stop being butthurt.

You can't quote Cube or 3 stacks?

"Good year blimp..."

"True I got more fans than the average man but not enough loot to last me,
Till the end of the week, I live by the beat like you live check to check,
If you don't move your feet then I don't eat so we like neck to neck..."

"Forever? forever-ever?"

"Keep yo heart 3 stacks, keep yo heart
Man these girls is smart 3 stacks..."

Andre 3000 prolly one of the most quotable from the 90s and Cube definitely one of the most from the 80s

Bruh....those are not qoutables...

Knowing the lyrics doesn't equal being quotable...that's just silly...that's just being a dedicated listener....


Nothing about those lines are memorable, witty, or clever or has some form of poetic ingenuity..

Just knowing the lyrics of a song doesn't make it quotable...

What is qoutable is some shyt like

I am not a killer, but don't push me, revenge is the sweetest joy next to getting p*ssy...

That shyt is qoutable

That shyt is literature...

And you instantly know where it comes and who said it...

If nobody knows where the fukk it comes from, it's not qoutable...

If you gotta take out 4 bars for it to make sense, it's not a qoutable..


Most rappers aren't quotable

Most artists of any form or medium ain't quotable...

Jay Z is a quotable artist and probably the most quotable Hip Hop artist cause the shyt he says is actually worth noting and it's simple and to the point and he's insanely popular


If I said...

Nobody wins when the family feuds...you know where they comes from...and you know who said it...


Nobody sitting here quoting 99 Percent of rappers, that's my point...My point is to hold Kendrick Lamar to that standard is stupid and just hating...

 

[Left.A1]

Bruh do I have to spell it out Lupe fam

Hey hey relax I’m just trying to get some clarity ....Sheesh

 

[Billy Ocean]

Text battle :prodigylol:
Isn't Daylt the gay troll?

Yep. Lupe stans got all giddy over a "text battle "


And yea, Daylyt is a gay troll. Would never respect that dude. Was saying wild homo shyt for attention in front of his son. Dude weird.

 

[Benefited]

some of my favorites are canibus, kane, rakim, and g rap. care for me to type some wordplay shyt without googling? I'm ready. I'll post their stuff and we can go back and forth with Kendrick lyrics you post. ok?

Not sure what that would prove. Im almost sure there quotables wont be as "lyrical". Which ruins Lupes entire argument that hes not top tier. When there are rappers who arent as technically as lyrical,or who have top tier wordplay who are more quotable than Lupe,how can he make thia argument?unless he realizes he's not top tier either. I dont think either one of these nikkas are top tier rappers.But as technical lyricist they both are. But Lupe doesnt habe the clout to speak on a superior artist who is also top tier soley based on the same reasons hes technically considered top tier.

Bro, I clearly remember dudes posting dope Kendrick lines in a thread that bozo vulture sirbiatch creating and y'all Lupe fanatics just brushing it off everytime. Y'all need to stop.

them were lines that nikka was pulling out his ass to even have a argument, prolly 1 0r 2 were quotables but most of those were shyts I know dot fans were not quoting.

cause I can gurantee if they were quotes kendrick fans would bring them up all the time a thread questioning his quotables. But most of yall come in with the "He a storyteller " post

 

[mobbinfms]

Too short

He had some nice rhymes here and there.

 

[Kenny West]

Word play and punchlines are two different things Bruh

Punchlines are a form of wordplay, you're making a "punchline" out to be exclusively comedy shyt.

Somebody quoted ab soul bars a while ago. His wordplay are mainly puns which are punchlines imo.

See this is what I'm saying. How do you know dudes were just arbitrarily posting rhymes without thinking they're dope? Those verses were dope and even a Lupe fan in here admitted he hears people qoute Kendrick all the time. shyt like this is why dudes don't fukk with Lupe. His stans are almost as pretentious as he is.

You don't know what you're talking about.

 

[mobbinfms]

hold up, to be a nominee for greatest mc all time or one of the best ever, you don't have to have the ability to actually








wait for it








put dope ass bars together???

When did punchlines and bars become synonymous?

 

[904]

Jay z is not a punchline rapper and never has been...

Kendrick is a great song writer but not an elite lyricist.. Nothing wrong with that..

He doesn't do metaphors nor does he give you those wisdom bars of say a Styles, Scarface or Sigel..
