See this why I fux with you. I actually agree with most of this

I’d break down what I disagree with more but I’m finna get ready for the gym

But keeping it short, K Dot’s biggest advantage overall imo over Lupe is his ability to be personable & relatable.
It's one of the things I never got about lupe

He's got plenty of stories but he's always wrote in the third person for some reason

Wonder if he's ever been asked in interviews about it. Though I reckon it's probably just harder for him to open up about it. Particularly things dealing with deceased friends

The entire “Cool” mythology is about Lupe. That shyt is groundwork for a movie in and of itself.


That being said

Lupe >>>>>>> Kendrick

But yes he is more palatable and yes he gets gaslit into hating on him but he’s also giving accurate assessments of his skillset.

You don’t need to have “bars” and one liners or a million and one devices working to be a dope MC or even lyricist but there’s levels to the shyt.
Never heard this before. Any source to that?

Cause I never got the impression the cool was supposed to be him or any specific person but represent anybody who gets mixed up in the streets

Is Lupe saying Drake is a rapper and not an MC??

Did something come out about Kendrick not writing his own rhymes?

Cause that's the only way you could possibly say Drake is better than K Dot.

Lupe and other non involved rappers should pipe down...

Another reason why nobody should take this clown seriously. Hating ass cornball been extremely quiet lately :mjlol: ..... Kendrick might be the toughest rapper to go to battle with because he can do it all. He can bar you up while also making it a smash hit. Winning a battle is not only about bars. It's also about the execution. And that's what guys like Lupe just don't understand. And it's why he never reached the heights Kendrick did.

Kendrick ducked Papoose. That's a fact.
Kdot walking around with a losing record to Papoose. :skip:

Lupe my favorite rapper, but he so Consistent with the BS that I know what his takes are gonna be before he even states them.

Just think of a take that you would think Lupe would think ...the chose the OPPOSITE of that and BAM! You got a Lupe Fiasco Take.


Lupe BEEN compromised...i stopped being disappointed Years ago
