Nah Royce was saying he would smoke Lupe lyrically on some rap shyt but then after he got bodied he started talking that fight shyt. Everyone was clowning Royce for that. He had to hold that L. You wanna fight after losing a rap battle that you asked for? That's some clown shyt.
Cudi didn't challenge Lupe to no rap battle. He straight up called him a thief and said he was trying to scam his fans. And then ducked him for years. And then years later brought it back up as if it was inevitable that him and Lupe would have problems. But Cudi started it in the first place and had years to apologize. He could have settled it years ago. At this point if Lupe want to kick his ass, it's pretty understandable.
Both these dudes caused their own issues with Lupe. They instigated these shyts
I am saying.
Lupe knows who to play with on the mic and who to try with like that and in what circumstance.
Lupe knows he can beat royce and Cudi in a battle. Lupe knows he can threaten Cudi.
who is a house duck type cat and not in hiphop and soft as hell.
That is why the fans jumped in when royce threatened violence.
Plus played the peace card with royce. As lupe knows royce will try to play up in the street. Which would only happen because royce is from Detroit. Plus is more just a general nikka.
who raps just like lupe is just a general out west chicago nikka who raps.
Where lupe knows royce will descend.
into bullshyt further down the rabbit hole for a look.
While lupe and common are actually plugged and more street than most of the underground frfr.
Plus lupe would not be trying to use street resources.
in a rap beef and would get clowned.
by whom lupe would ask for aid in that shyt too.
It would not be a good look for lupe.
to be in a street physical meets gun play rap beef from a rap battle.
to whom lupe is connected to.
As again...hiphop culture and gang culture are two different worlds juxtaposed from one another and world's apart.
It is only a few actual emcees in Chicago hiphop.
who known and actualized and live a double life.
Lupe is just a general out west chicago nikka with interest in rap. Lupe is not a hiphop cultural guy.
We know so because when asked about tribe. It turned into a defensive rant about eightball. After failing to know tribe lyrics.
or even show culture admiration for being there. Lupe is from the commercial boom of Nas
When the radio station during and after the communications act.
that creates the mainstream commercial footprint for the nation and maybe the world in wgci. Like there was a whole era of biter Nas rego nikka rappers in Chicago.
who not in hiphop. They rap but not in hiphop and do not give a fukk about hiphop culture. They know rap as a gangsta rap meets commercial rap construct.
not a hiphop culture based construct.
That is where lupe residE.
Lupe is basically what if.
the wgci commercial Nas biter rapper Ajax got a record deal. Yet on no day was Ajax.
or lupe out in the hiphop culture scene as emcees. Past commercial radio game show.
or major label plant style events.
As hiphop culture and street gangsta shyt are completely juxtaposed and Two different world's all together in Chicago.
Where lupe was never this bboy like that. The look of being and appearing apart of hiphop culture was a biter wave. Spawned by toys trying to bite demdare in April of 93. When the communications act started and gateway commercial play of rap.
for the prison industrial economy began. Lupe is from that second wave of oversturation commercial hiphop mainstream method of clear channel industrial prison economy monopoly radio. That eventually killed radio and was eventually blamed on the internet wrongly.
In that commercial era Nas biter rappers became a thing. shyt eminem is a Nas biter rapper. Where Detroit also had a commercial wack rap oversaturation method radio station named wJLB [if I remember the station callsign right]
Similar to the gateway breakin' and beat street Made break dancing.
a pop gateway thing. It does not mean just because you had a gateway into a skill of a pillar. That you are hiphop. You can not believe this fallacy of just because someone raps or break dances they are apart of hiphop. They are just interested in skills of a pillar. They may not ever know a more or norm in hiphop culture to committ to as a way of life. Most rap fans are like this. This is everywhere in nature. Just because someone has dreads. That does not make them ras. Or even a fan of reggae. It is just the commercialization of a religious christian Indian culture has occurred. Just like the commercialization of hiphop culture has occurred. Same here. People who rap may not be a part of actual hiphop culture and live it as a way of life.
So lupe knows he can not have hiphop.
intersect into his real connections like that.
As hiphop culture is still taboo.
in the real actual world.
As lupe knows he can try the whole hiphop card thing with Royce. While royce was just playing up to semantics and looks. Plus royce knows only to use this card. via ignorant short sighted perception from Lupe's marketing with no discovery. Evident by getting served by Mister fab. To foreshadow royce would lose an impromptu battle and a written battle by a higher top tiered Nas biter and flagship solo jayz lyor Cohen failed coup artist in lupe.
Royce pulled the street card out of ignorance.
As Detroit is free thought drug kingpin vigilant style. They are not out west. Where out west chicago still have real grassroots actual unabridged gang open air service markets like lupe. Plus connected like lupe at all.
plus lupe knows.
Lupe can pull the street hard card with Cudi.
While it is dressed in sheer prison industrial economy ignorance.
to diffuse and respond to threats from royce in peace. As royce is just trying to get a look and not gangsta or street.
in the idea that lupe is as well. Royce sounds asinine because royce plays the toy hiphop culture meets street line thing.
Yet royce is in no way capable
of trying to play those games with lupe logistically or culturally.
it is simple politics culturally and clout chasing.
if you in the know.
It ain't rocket science.

you can't reason with a mf like this at all just gotta ignore it
, just some sword work, pause. I’m a super fan, that’s my nig…I know all the stories about his martial arts history…that said, seeing is believing,
