looks like some micheal jackson ‘can you feel it’ shit
^ I was thinkin’ the same thing, lol. And that was also one of my favorite MJ songs. I like how he got his name and album title written in Arabic script, payin’ homage to his religion. That’s kinda ill.
one of the reasons that hip hop became watered down is the fact that artists had to appeal to a wider audience so instead of 10 bangers on one disc its only 2 or 3 and for my demographic and 2 for radio, 2 for another demographic females or whatever
that bein said this Lupe kid must be on some real “in my hood” type shit …and that may be good for hip hop …and I know lil homey can spit…but I really dont understand the hype aboout this dude
Btw the cover is wick wick wack (c) Krs One
With the title of his album, I expected to see Lupe eating a slice of deep dish pizza, drinking a Bud lite on the cover? Instead this looks like some when space niggaz attack type ish! Whatever though. I can care less about the album cover, it’s the music that counts. Hopefully, the album is tight?
Not anymore.. Nowadays it is about biting.. Most Companies want to put out someone who sounds like someone already cause they think, if that guy sold, their new clone will sell too…
Im not saying Lupe cant flow, or that he doesnt have lyrics, but DAMN he is on JAY’s dick so HARD.. (no homo?)
I mean, every time I hear him for more than 10 seconds I have to shit off the song cause it get pissed… He sounds to me like he is trying his hardest to sound like JAY..
He swagger Jacked Jay HARD as hell.. if this dude was doing his thing and had his own VOICE and style it would be hot, but until he hops off Jay’s balls, I have to call a BOYCOTT..
i really hope this skateboard ish really hits home in the hood becasue it is a real life another ave to make serious money. xtreme sports = white people rap game
there goes your credibiltity. that’s the standard line used to put down and M.C. in this era “he sounds like Jay” he sounds nothing like the big homie.

there goes your credibiltity. that’s the standard line used to put down and M.C. in this era “he sounds like Jay†he sounds nothing like the big homie.
^^^^
Fuck you talking about?? You should hear it more than anyone..
He says more “YUPS” and “NOPES” than anyone right now, his whole cadence is Jay esque…
I mean, LUPE does not sound like LUPE.. HE Sounds like JAY taught him how to rap.. HE even admits that..
Thats prolly why you love him so much and would post that garbage ass cover..
one of the reasons that hip hop became watered down is the fact that artists had to appeal to a wider audience so instead of 10 bangers on one disc its only 2 or 3 and for my demographic and 2 for radio, 2 for another demographic females or whatever
^^
to be fair, one of my fav artists Jadakiss abused this formula on both his albums. thus stripping him of being classic. WTF is jay doing..but i keep hearing that rick ross album is actually good from intro to outro. say wat yall want, i havent hurd the album but credible sources told me. if u havent hurd the album keep ur opinion 2 urself
….5 Deadly Venoms – Kay Slay and Greg Street Ft. Ghostface Killah, Raekwon, Kool G. Rap, Big Daddy Kane and Lord Tariq = best mixtape song out right now….
“i really hope this skateboard ish really hits home in the hood”
^^^THERES too much dutchie guts, needles, empty weed/UTZ/hair weave bags, chicken bones from Crowns Chicken, potholes, trash bags on curbs, niggas that will laugh at you rocking ice, and scuffin ya BAPES on a skateboard for the hood to ever accept skateboarding as more than a method of travel for white folks.
Can you imagine telling HABIB from the bodega to “watch my skateboard son”..while you go cop 2 dutchies?
Lupe seems like he has his own thing going on. Comparing him to Jay seems like a stretch? I mean I could agree with that scenario of Shyne & Guerilla Black trying to capitalize on the Biggie’s sound, but Lupe doesn’t seem to immulate Jay to that degree.
that shit pisses me off. LOL. its called mentoring….everyone has a fucking mentor i hate these hood mentalitys were they frown upon shit like having a mentor…back then it was called havin a oG! Jaz-0 mentored jayz…so if ur gonna say some dumb shit like he sound like jay-z cuz he said jayz taught em 2 rhyme…u might as well throw jaz-o name in there
I wouldnt purchase this little snot nose, skateboarding, still trying to find himself, nerd ass niggaz music.
^^why do you think he’s still tryin to find himself? one thing i like, no scratch that, love, about lupe is that he’s not afraid to be himself. he’s into robots, skateboards, probably MJ, and all kinds of other shit and his videos and music reflects that in an era where everyone is making cookie cutter songs and doing what they think society thinks is “cool”
@456 – Of course sonny, I stays in the old school R&B, soul, house, jazz and whatever else is dope to my eardrums. U need some suggestions? Get at me playa…
this is the reason that i have not downloaded any new tracks from 98% of artists even when posted on nahright…shit i havent even hurd the new fab….but shits disgustin (c) cam Look at these new fools from missippi
This nigga eskay stay posting shit about LUPE. Aint nobody even checkin for this clown an by the look of his cover people still wont be checking for him unless you some clownazz nigga who is tired of all the trap talk an is lookin for a change in music lupe might be for jus you…….

70’s= the greatest era in music. period.
for r&b
^most of the best samples in hiphop comes out of the seventies. niggas be strip mining the 70′s to get just a taste of that vibe. jazz, reggae, african – black people were on some ill shit in seventies. the singers were better, the songs were tighter, more creative and weren’t cookie cutter like they are now. musicians were musicians. no era comes even close.
>>unless you some clownazz nigga who is tired of all the trap talk an is lookin for a change in music lupe might be for jus you…….
so if you’re sick of trap music and you want something mroe out of your hip hop you’re a ‘clownazz nigga’? I don’t know, but I’m feeling Lupe and I would beat blood outta your nose.

Do what ya do (c) E-40
i aint knockin it. Alot of people r saying rap is whack, but its not, its just a change of generations. everyone in their life goes thru a period where they get old and leave something behind. Like wrestling for example…well that happens with hip-hop but we’re to ignorant to even say something other than “he’s whack cuz he sounds like…”.
Hip-Hop belongs to the new generation..and i gladly gave it up. im about to give up on the hood in general in a second…shits looking bleek…fuck these niggaz.
August 21st, 2006 at 11:57 am
>>I mean, LUPE does not sound like LUPE.. HE Sounds like JAY taught him how to rap.. HE even admits that..
if anything he praises Nas for his influence. he says he didn’t even used to like Jay because of his subject matter. step your game up.
^^^^
damn, you sound like you are on LUPUS’ dick real hard right now eskay..
Then to attact my credibilty?? you must be crazy bro…
I wont even get into that..
I have DONE shows with KRS ONE.. so fall back on that.. I live this hip hop shit day in and day out..
You seem like you taking these LUPUS’ disses real personal bro..
HE IS NOT ORIGINAL in any way (other than he skates) oh.. wait a minute.. PHARELL beat him to that..
If he wasnt down with Jay he wouldnt be shit.. I KNOW 100 dudes on that nerd rap shit as nice as him.. But bottom line is, HE HAS NO IDENTITY of his own in his music and is living off mad hype.. Wich is cool too.. Im not hating, Im just pointing out that he is a puppet and not bringing much to the table..
He structured HIS album off Nas’.. yeah.. I know..
His flow and swagger is Gay – Z all day though.. And if YOU cant see that, than youre credibilty is GONE.. blog site and all..
^^acceptable to me cause they rapping about a car and not some crazy epileptic seizure looking dance..I guess they snapping to it tho?..Ive accepted rap music’s metamorphisis into other genre’s, it was inevitable…black folks stay re inventing themselves..that’s why we so fuckin fly…

thats a good look for lupe (having an album cover, at least) but a bad look for people who like his music but thinks hes a kanye homo. i actually like how he dresses, but i know yall prefer capris
why the fuck you checkin for my comments then filthytunes? if you don’t like what i gotta say when you see my name scroll the fuck on. fools trip me out on here tryin to come at me like they got a serious problem with me or some shit. mu’fucka kick rocks.

^^^^^^
Thats a good one Eskay.. Way to try and get at me..
Im not mad.. I know whats good with LUPE.. he came to the studio and wrote 2 bars in 3 days..
I had a deal with ATLANTIC this year.. It didnt work out in the end cause I wouldnt rap like Paul Wall..
Im good with mine.. I just dont like the hype on someone who I dont feel deserves it… I mean, if you work from the bottom up you deserve all the benifits you get with it..
But this dude is walking the easy route right now, some say he deserves some might not…
To tell you the truth, this dude aint even fuckin with KANYE as a rapper.. Kanye really opened the door for this dude..
Kanye deserved it.. He busted his ass.. This guy is living off that, then on top of that I dont think he is bringing anything new to the game..
Im sure he is dope, I have heard he is great, but like I said, theyre are alot of talented rappers out there who aint getting the CHANCES he is getting.. (because of affiliation) (marekablity) and other things, Like Jay owning part of him..
no doubt like i said buddens is the truth i think the nicest out now but no need to get into that, but i see you got some serious hate in your blood for lupe i dont get it ? i mean i see what your saying but a) eskay is right lupe modeled everything he did from nas not jay b) ok so he is on some different shit and he wasnt the first rap/skateboarder but does that mean he cant rock it ? go listen to his mixtapes he doesnt sound like jay at all and again the boy is nice better than 90 % out and also trust that almost everyone on this site respects that you did a show with krs but that doesnt mean that we should take your word as the be all and end all of how we should feel about lupe’s music, lots of people like lupe myself included is it that big a deal ?
>>To tell you the truth, this dude aint even fuckin with KANYE as a rapper..
come on man, you’re just diggin yourself into a deeper hole. Kanye is a better rapper cuz he had a harder time getting on? you do know that Lupe had a record deal 5 years ago right, but it didn’t work out cuz they wanted him to do shit that was out of his character. sound familiar? stop the hatred.
…the sixties were even more creative…the 70’s is when the business aspect of music started to intervene into the creative process, because the biting did begin, there were several groups that would bite EarthWind& Fire….male singers were starting to mimic the vocal stylings and mannerisms of James Brown, Marvin Gaye, and Donny Hathaway….the famale artists were becoming Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross, Chaka Khan clones….and every group or solo act had to have a “disco†song regardless of their own genre…the sixties was the last time music was void of the creative pigeonholing that exists today…black acts were heard on white radio and vice versa….(c) Jimi Hendrix, Isaac Hayes, Bob Marley, James Brown, Sly & the Family Stone, Aretha Franklin, Motown…
^all the artist you mentioned made their greatest work in the seventies. Motown in the sixties was a machine and repeated itself often. Stevie Wonder in the seventies was greater than Stevie Wonder in the sixties. Same for Bob Marley, EWF, JB, Sly etc

yo barlow is a good look for us that for damn sure, i mean he is better than houston or blaylock thats for damn sure so its a damn good move
and yeah the yanks are on a fucking tear damn ive been having fun harassing my boys that are red sox fans
ain’t nobody saying Lupe is gonna save rap or whatever. all I’m saying is the kid is nasty and I’m looking forward to his album. in this day and age when these fucking idiot’s are running around buying Rick Ross cd’s, this is exactly what the game’s been missing.
nah.. I said the KRS one shit cause ESGAY had the nerve to question my crediblity.. Im not some dude like NBMORE who doesnt know whats up..
I do this for real, Like I was saying.. not only do I get on nahright and talk about this shit with yall (some cool mufuckas) but I DO THIS SHIT..I selll mixtapes in the street, I am in the studio, I got songs on DILLA beats.. I got songs on Denaun Porter beats.. I had deals.. anyways.. thats not the point..
and like I said, I know LUPE modled his album after Nas’.. I just said he bites jay’s swagger too much for me to give him respect as a dope up and comer.. LISTEN TO HIM TALK on his songs when he is not rapping.. anyways.. fuck LUPUS.. if yall like him, buy it.. I was just stating my opinion cause everyone seems to like him, at least I have a reason for my not liking him.. there has to be a flip side to every coin.. so FUCK LUPUS! haha..
anyways..
then there was this..

its not his fault at all, thats the way the music biz is..
when there is a brittany spears, there is a christna aguillaer, and a hillary duff or whoever else there is..
thats business… my point is.. Just cause his “image” is different than the one that is more POPULAR right now (gangsta shit) doesnt mean it is not an image.. you act like he is refreshing but he is just another product put out there by the lables..
IF lupus tobasco sells, EVERY lable will have a black statboarding NERD on the roster.. just watch.
^ But who do you blame for that? Lupe or the labels? Your anger is directed at the wrong people. You already admitted that they wanted you to be like someone else. That’s what labels do. Labels were try’na sign Kanye’s too. Right now, we’re still suffering from too many Jay’s being signed. And lets not even talk about how many Young Cheezys exist. But at least if he does well it will be a change of pace for the industry. I still will be bumpin’ independants and formin’ my own opinion. But I can’t stop how labels choose to dictate certain images. Whatever sellin’ is what they’re rollin’ with. But that doesn’t mean kid isn’t nice. Are you tellin’ me that if Jay-Z co-signed your way into the game that you wouldn’t take it with no inhibitions? If you say no, then you’re a liar. Lupe paid his dues and just happened to have the most powerful man in music co-sign it.

ok, so you can say that for every rapper on the face of the earth. and how is it not real? he really is a nerdy kid who skateboards and collects Japanese toys, so whats fake about his image?
youre buying into crap.. if you want REAL GOOD MUSIC, with lyrics and a meaning that is official and is not YOUNG JEEZY there is alot of room between that and LUPUS TOBASCO..

But I can’t stop how labels choose to dictate certain images. Whatever sellin’ is what they’re rollin’ with. But that doesn’t mean kid isn’t nice. Are you tellin’ me that if Jay-Z co-signed your way into the game that you wouldn’t take it with no inhibitions? If you say no, then you’re a liar. Lupe paid his dues and just happened to have the most powerful man in music co-sign it.
FILTHY D.BILLZ IS RIGHT FROM EVERYTHING I’VE READ IT SEEMS LIKE YOUR REAL BEEF IS WITH AND SHOULD BE WITH THE LABELS NOT LUPE, LUPE IS JUST BEING HIMSELF AND OF COURSE IF HE IS SUCCEFUL LABELS WILL TRY AND COPY THEY ALWAYS DO BUT I’D RATHER PEOPLE COPY LUPE THAN RICK ROSS, JEEZY OR THE UNIT
the fact that niggas is debating lupe’s image means he won already. most shit is so cookie cutter that its nothing to say. anybody debating rick ross’s cover or image? nope cause we know it. and lupe is far closer to nas than jay in his approach and rhyme style. i peeping how certain nas stans can’t even see his influence on lupe. fake rap fans…that’s why talib has to beg yall niggas to LISTEN…
yo i would actually wear what lupe is wearing… except the jacket, if its orange and fruity fougetaboutdit.. but i cant really see the jacket, otherwise, id wear the hi tops, the jeans and the tshirt… with maddd swagger
real funny loser.. why dont you send out some emails for your shitty web site. I get more hits on my myspace page bitch..
^^
just cuz u got a myspace dont mean that u nice/ just cuz u wear a kufi dont mean that u bright/
I mean of course Lupe’s gonna be that nigga in yall minds. u get fed so much jeezy and rick ross that you look at lupe as ur savior. i mean isnt that wat brought kanye into mainstream? history repeats itself..and in the industry its not by mistake.
..for yall that be on here 24/7 and gettin no pussy..go outside once in a while my niggaz and bag a female and throw this joint on
REACH I THINK SOMEONES TALKING TO YOU
^^
LOL difference between me and u is im on here while on the go…your on the desktop with ur little brother french kevin playin wit toy guns in da background
Filth ya shit is a weedplate..something to just straight crush buds ons…but every rapper gets nuff respect from me just for having the courage to do wat they do…Ill double that for u. maybe ur wat the games been missing…we havent had a rapper represent Pompano, FL since……YOU?

^ I see your point, but if you nice, you nice. There are plenty of cats who tried the Kanye/Lupe route and they SUCK at it. Just so happens that they were nice at what they do. Nobody said that the labels didn’t PURPOSELY look for these cats. Both had Jay as a co-sign which helped a LOT. But does that take away from the artistry? Not at all chief. I know good music when I hear it. I’m still waitin’ for Jay to co-sign Jean Grae so that the dick riders will finally recognize her skills and she can get that exposure.
not to familar with her work, but i wont judge her, just want to say oin that new york shit, the first line did it for me (pause)
the line about snap music

^ She’s a beast. Honestly, she’s better than most dudes out. Go cop Attack of the Attacking Things (as you can see she has a sense of humor), The Bootleg of the Bootleg EP, and This Week. And she gotta new joint droppin’ called Jeanius. She got a few mixtapes under her belt too.
Devoted life to the dream of lights and fortune and fame
I might just gain the vision, or just might be livin in vain
See in the game it’s cool strolls and platinum thugs
Stack the cash, drugs and women ; bubble in crime, trouble in time
I stay humble with mine, had drama for words
Encountered some birds who tried to take the shine
But I’m illuminatin like a thousand frozen wrists in the glint of the sun
Worth the Franklin Mint and Wall Street combined into one
They can’t see it yet though, different like niggaz sayin petrol
for gas, english metric system, graded on the past
Just tryin to reach y’all, no one’s at my arms length
Wanna stay in the race but slowly runnin out of breath
They all alike, can’t understand, maybe it’s safest
to play the role and be another glitch in The Matrix
Repetitive flow, embedded in dough
I run the risk of pissin everybody off, but I don’t care if you know
- Jean Grae – chorus
Yo I’m on the line like white, china, table
Lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time man
Fuck y’all, say it
Bring it, lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time
Things ain’t different, say it
Bring it, I’m on, now
- Jean Grae –
Quit for good, too many times, shit maybe I should
But it won’t prevent rejection reappearin in life
I even lay the toughest down for you
Paint the ground blood pink for you, only so that you feel me right
Then hear me tight from the ills perhaps
But not a lot of scenes like movie stills are fleein from fiends and caps
I had, thrills and high spills, couple of hot chases
Romance with Jacks, Jills in dirty places
No jail cell been filled and no court cases
But committed murder of flesh, two of my own faces
At best I’m, a dime each, not a dozen, never cheap
Fornicated adultery once and now I never cheat
Younger sibling or two, family disfunctional
Problem with bein on time, hardly ever punctual
Punchclocks give me the runs, just not in my blood Akki
Y’all flashin guns at me, time to go ? Let it be
- Jean Grae – chorus
Yo I’m on the line like white, china, table
Lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time man
Fuck y’all, say it
Bring it, lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time
Things ain’t different, say it
Bring it, I’m on, now
- Jean Grae –
See I got these bill collectors, practically at the door chillin
I can’t explain to Visa how I’m tryin to stack a million
Hustle on the side for chump change, it’s not big time
I only do it for fries, chicken and wine and hump days
Reality spit, dudes and rap bitches sick of me
And if they right, they still print, I’m tryin to do calligraphy
All real, sit up just all night, just thinkin it’s all wrong
Won’t sleep ’til everything’s alright
I made brush fire noise ; I need four alarm
Three A.M. on the lawn with two kids and one slipper on
Blaze now, your days phase out like old sitcoms
Tryin to save the show by puttin new fuckin kids on
Love me or not, respect it for what it’s worth
I’m like a bundle of dough in a knot in a purse under your cot
Undiscovered lines like connectin the dots
It’s gonna happen, sooner or later
Fuck rappin, just givin data
- Jean Grae – chorus
Yo I’m on the line like white, china, table
Lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time man
Fuck y’all, say it
Bring it, lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time

im really suprised nobody seems to have caught what I was saying..
and for the record.. I dont like MF DOOM..
I would rather listen to my air conditioner..
I agree, I would rather the lables push stuff like Lupus Tobasco instead of Young Jeezy.. for sure.. I would be the happiest guy in the world..
all I was saying is.. Lupus is in that spotlight right now, and is surrounded by alot of HYPE.. I just think he is getting props cause he is “different” not cause he is great…
anyways.. Im done talking about Lupus Tobasco for now..
I just want to hear some dope music that comes from the heart.. That is made with respect to the art form and the culture.. I dont care who it is, or where they are from as long as it is sincere and has a point to it…
if it is made under those circumstances Im all for it..
I had a deal with ATLANTIC this year.. It didnt work out in the end cause I wouldnt rap like Paul Wall..
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
hahaha get the fuck outta here faggot. u kevin federline ass muthafucka. U being signed ot atlantic?? We got a better chance seeing Jay resigning Amil. and get off buddens dick,we know he ur idol. but common now…
This kid is wack….I will say that forever. Will never respect this kid. Stick to being a skater….hanging out with that other retard, Kanye….they are what’s wrong with Hip Hop…along with Lady Sovreign….I guess anybody can be a rapper and can be Hip Hop nowadays if a fag like this is…..if he is Hip Hop, what’s stoppin a cheerleader from being a rapper….or a rocker “dude”….or Paris Hilton….etc.?
Don’t say I’m buggin…think about it, it makes sense. Hip Hop is Hip Hop…it’s not what fuckin Kanye wants us to accept! You people following these retards are not helping so stop saying Hip Hop is wack now, and then you’re on these people’s dicks….
Eskay, I got nothin against you, but half the posts on here seem to be about this guy or his friends….c’mon.

you love my style.. you been calling my crib and I aint even give you my number..
come on man… get off my dick.. go look in your mom’s IPOD right now and you will see how much people love my music..
That bitch BEEN on my dick, I could drop some of that atlantic money on her! haha..
One for the money
Two for pussy and foreign cars
Three for Alize niggaz deceased or behind bars
I rap divine Gods check the prognosis, is it real or showbiz?
My window faces shootouts, drug overdoses
Live amongst no roses, only the drama, for real
A nickel-plate is my fate, my medicine is the ganja
Here’s my basis, my razor embraces, many faces
Your telephone blowin, black stitches or fat shoelaces
Peoples are petrol, dramatic automatic fo’-fo’ I let blow
and back down po-po when I’m vexed so
my pen taps the paper then my brain’s blank
I see dark streets, hustlin brothers who keep the same rank
Pumpin for somethin, some uprise, plus some fail
Judges hangin niggaz, uncorrect bails, for direct sales
My intellect prevails from a hangin cross with nails
I reinforce the frail, with lyrics that’s real
Word to Christ, a disciple of streets, trifle on beats
I decifer prophecies through a mic and say peace.
I hung around the older crews while they sling smack to dingbats
They spoke of Fat Cat, that nigga’s name made bell rings, black
Some fiends scream, about Supreme Team, a Jamaica Queens thing
Uptown was Alpo, son, heard he was kingpin, yo
Fuck ‘rap is real’, watch the herbs stand still
Never talkin to snakes cause the words of man kill
True in the game, as long as blood is blue in my veins
I pour my Heineken brew to my deceased crew on memory lane
Eh…..not bad, that cover’s just on some other shit, got ya girl saying “wow….” Neither good nor bad, just observing. As long as the package is as interesting as the (w)rapper, we’re good to go.
Good job on the cover, prob’s to Lupe!, the album is good as hell (at least the bootleg is), they need to drop that album, the albums startin to get old……….
bla bla bla. this is NOTHING like ANY other hip hop album cover on the shelves today. and you and everyone else will notice that, like it or not. props to lupe and props to nopattern.com for the art
It makes me laugh when a bunch of “hip hop heads” hate on someone like Lupe cause he’s doing his own damn thing. It may not be “street,” or “gangsta” or “thug”, or whatever adjective you prefer to describe your choice of music… but how can you hate on someone cause he ain’t afraid to speak on what he really about.
So the dude likes video games and skateboarding and all that shit that you hoods consider to be uncool. I’d be willing to bet my left nut that most of you motherfuckers have some secret interest that you’d never let on to anyone cause it might ruin your whole “thug” persona and put you in a different light as a real person. I like blunts and guns and selling cocaine and all that too, but I also like to bring my ass home at night and play some video games cause I don’t feel the need to uphold my thug image.
While it doesn’t seem to be getting great feedback so far, I am thrilled to have worked on it and it’s exactly what Lupe wanted and exactly how I envisioned his ideas he gave to me.
2nd GAYEST ALBUM COVER EVER!!!! The first is Prince’ first album (You know the one when is butt ass naked on the fuckin horse looking like a straight up bitch?)
Ima still by the album, Ill just put in my M.O.P firing Squad CD case.
wtf is he thinking with this fruit ass cover… how you gunna be reppin that real hiphop and come with some outer space touch me in the wrong places 80′s rock cover looking piece of shit… this album better be hot shit cause i dont wonna be seen walking with something like that if its flop!!!
should of just played it safe and gone with the graffiti cover like most smart people would of done… or a pic of him skateboarding, god damn some artist just dont got it in they heads mentally when it comes to proper look and promotion

Yall Just don’t get it. And Honestly you all never will. Remember “Back to the Future”, Voltron, Transformers, Thunder Cats. Lupe is taking you back. This is one of the first real artist to come out in a while. Talking about his life which is like most. You don’t look to be killers and thieves, or pimps and hoes. But growing up you look at your imagination. Use that Imagination thing that God gave you. In the Words of Napoleon Dynaminte “Gosh”
Lupe iz cool in hiz own way he a good rapper an all dat but what the fuck iz this shit hiz fuckin album cover for jus seein this shit makes me not wanna buy it no more, but of course i will :)
the cover is kinda fruity and it does remind me of MJ, but i still respect this nigga’s music. i mean at least he has the damn mothafuckin guts to be himself which a lot of rapper from now are missing.it gets tiring when you see all the rappers w/ the same gangsta/thug/hustla attitude,likeif they copying from each other.sometimes change is a good thing unless the person is maaaaad wack.
You kids gotta be about the fuckin dumbest bunch of no nothing about hiphop I ever heard in my life. why you ask? because all you do is complain.
“Oh, the cover wah wah cry.” The cover is really tight if you ask me..
You would rather have him eating a slice a pizza and drinking a bud light?
like I said.. Kids. Your the reason for this hip hop crash and burn.
Fuck off. I wish I could stand you all in a line then put a bullet though the person in front, hoping it passes through all of you..
The cover is very well done. It reflects Lupe’s personality, his influences and his interests. I don’t think it is meant to impress, but to reflect, as it should. Besides, it allows you a glimpse into the other world of hip hop, the one that holds quality and originality in high esteem, as opposed to the quantity, excess, and violence that mainstream hip hop sells to the masses. The whole point of music is expression and if you do not respect someone for their expression, including how they want to present their cover, then just close your eyes and cover your ears. Hip hop is not about conformity. Criticism is good, but not when it is tainted with disrespect. Also, listen to the music first, then look at the cover again and you will see that they go hand in hand, there is no discrepancy between what the visual reveals and what the music reveals. (P.S. Sorry for being so corny.)
You kids gotta be about the fuckin dumbest bunch of no nothing about hiphop I ever heard in my life. why you ask? because all you do is complain.

Thats the truth right there. I bet 95% of the people that posted here say “Ballin’” or some Lil John ad-libs in every other line they say.
fuck all you hoe ass haters lupe da muthafuckin truth he dont sound shyt like jay let da nigga express his self and quit blowin his cock cause you mad u aint got a deal and the cover hard as fuck
Filthy I would respect your opinion if your flow was anywhere near Lupe’s but I went on your wack ass myspace and wasted my time on your hackneyed, rehashed, stale, dickriding flow. YO ass aint never gonn sell. If Lupe aint nothin special why YOU wasting YOUR time, posting every reason your ignorant ass can think of that the kid is garbage. I personally think that that’s important time that you need to step up your flow. Your a sad white boy from Pompano Beach. You better get into school motherfucker.

With the title of his album, I expected to see Lupe eating a slice of deep dish pizza, drinking a Bud lite on the cover? Instead this looks like some when space niggaz attack type ish! Whatever though. I can care less about the album cover, it’s the music that counts. Hopefully, the album is tight?

You see. Hip hop used to be about originality..
Not anymore.. Nowadays it is about biting.. Most Companies want to put out someone who sounds like someone already cause they think, if that guy sold, their new clone will sell too…
Im not saying Lupe cant flow, or that he doesnt have lyrics, but DAMN he is on JAY’s dick so HARD.. (no homo?)
I mean, every time I hear him for more than 10 seconds I have to shit off the song cause it get pissed… He sounds to me like he is trying his hardest to sound like JAY..
He swagger Jacked Jay HARD as hell.. if this dude was doing his thing and had his own VOICE and style it would be hot, but until he hops off Jay’s balls, I have to call a BOYCOTT..

Lupe seems like he has his own thing going on. Comparing him to Jay seems like a stretch? I mean I could agree with that scenario of Shyne & Guerilla Black trying to capitalize on the Biggie’s sound, but Lupe doesn’t seem to immulate Jay to that degree.

August 21st, 2006 at 11:57 am
>>I mean, LUPE does not sound like LUPE.. HE Sounds like JAY taught him how to rap.. HE even admits that..
if anything he praises Nas for his influence. he says he didn’t even used to like Jay because of his subject matter. step your game up.
August 21st, 2006 at 11:57 am
JAY – Z owns LUPE or should we Call him LUPUS..
You see, Jay owns stock in him, like howard stern does in serius radio…
When LUPUS starts to make that paper, JAY gets his cut, SO.. Jay uses his connects and gets shit poppin for this dude..
Now I cant hate on that.. and I did admit this dude has skill, but like I said, he isnt playing right…
Due to his nerdiness and potential marketability he got JAY on board..
it might work, it might not, but THIS dude is a puppet right now..
Until he does something to stand on his own 2 feet, I aint fuckin with this dude..
I would rather listen to Sean Price..
or Ali Vegas..
or about 1,000,000,000 other dudes.. its just sad how the game goes, but I guess its real.. The real never wins, always the fakeness…

I wouldnt purchase this little snot nose, skateboarding, still trying to find himself, nerd ass niggaz music.
^^why do you think he’s still tryin to find himself? one thing i like, no scratch that, love, about lupe is that he’s not afraid to be himself. he’s into robots, skateboards, probably MJ, and all kinds of other shit and his videos and music reflects that in an era where everyone is making cookie cutter songs and doing what they think society thinks is “cool”
August 21st, 2006 at 11:59 am

i aint knockin it. Alot of people r saying rap is whack, but its not, its just a change of generations. everyone in their life goes thru a period where they get old and leave something behind. Like wrestling for example…well that happens with hip-hop but we’re to ignorant to even say something other than “he’s whack cuz he sounds like…”.
Hip-Hop belongs to the new generation..and i gladly gave it up. im about to give up on the hood in general in a second…shits looking bleek…fuck these niggaz.

You seem like you taking these LUPUS’ disses real personal bro..
HE IS NOT ORIGINAL in any way (other than he skates) oh.. wait a minute.. PHARELL beat him to that..
If he wasnt down with Jay he wouldnt be shit.. I KNOW 100 dudes on that nerd rap shit as nice as him.. But bottom line is, HE HAS NO IDENTITY of his own in his music and is living off mad hype.. Wich is cool too.. Im not hating, Im just pointing out that he is a puppet and not bringing much to the table..
He structured HIS album off Nas’.. yeah.. I know..
His flow and swagger is Gay – Z all day though.. And if YOU cant see that, than youre credibilty is GONE.. blog site and all..

Im not mad.. I know whats good with LUPE.. he came to the studio and wrote 2 bars in 3 days..
I had a deal with ATLANTIC this year.. It didnt work out in the end cause I wouldnt rap like Paul Wall..
Im good with mine.. I just dont like the hype on someone who I dont feel deserves it… I mean, if you work from the bottom up you deserve all the benifits you get with it..
But this dude is walking the easy route right now, some say he deserves some might not…
To tell you the truth, this dude aint even fuckin with KANYE as a rapper.. Kanye really opened the door for this dude..
Kanye deserved it.. He busted his ass.. This guy is living off that, then on top of that I dont think he is bringing anything new to the game..
Im sure he is dope, I have heard he is great, but like I said, theyre are alot of talented rappers out there who aint getting the CHANCES he is getting.. (because of affiliation) (marekablity) and other things, Like Jay owning part of him..

August 21st, 2006 at 12:27 pm
nah.. I said the KRS one shit cause ESGAY had the nerve to question my crediblity.. Im not some dude like NBMORE who doesnt know whats up..
I do this for real, Like I was saying.. not only do I get on nahright and talk about this shit with yall (some cool mufuckas) but I DO THIS SHIT..I selll mixtapes in the street, I am in the studio, I got songs on DILLA beats.. I got songs on Denaun Porter beats.. I had deals.. anyways.. thats not the point..
and like I said, I know LUPE modled his album after Nas’.. I just said he bites jay’s swagger too much for me to give him respect as a dope up and comer.. LISTEN TO HIM TALK on his songs when he is not rapping.. anyways.. fuck LUPUS.. if yall like him, buy it.. I was just stating my opinion cause everyone seems to like him, at least I have a reason for my not liking him.. there has to be a flip side to every coin.. so FUCK LUPUS! haha..
anyways..
then there was this..

wamp wamp nahright
my internet was shiesty last night and this morning, started reading (yeah i know) 48 laws… pretty good
i had to find things to do when my internet didnt work and it was raining outside, i listened to some filth and TFAF. you need to send me more music, that shit was banging. no joke, i didnt pay that much attention ot lyrics the first time, just flow and shit, but damn filth. up some on rapidshare or somthing
Good looking out for checking the music man! bout time somone listened to the lyrics…
I got some new shit and im putting together this new mixtape..
I was trying to find somone on here who is nice with photoshop so I can get this cover made…

August 21st, 2006 at 12:29 pm
>>Ok esk….u keep rebuffing our reasons why WE dont like Lupe…give us a few why YOU like Lupe
plain and simple, I like Lupe cuz he’s got lyrics and he’s not afraid to put himself out there instead of some fake ass image to sell records. it’s not rocket science. if you can’t respect that, your whole perspective is wack.
August 21st, 2006 at 12:30 pm

no but i mean, i did the first time, but the shit is growing on me (no fungus)
and dont hate on lupe. for real, you cant say joe budden > lupe, you should say joe budden + lupe > present state of hip hop
they should go hand in hand (no homo!) in our minds for what is good music

its not his fault at all, thats the way the music biz is..
when there is a brittany spears, there is a christna aguillaer, and a hillary duff or whoever else there is..
thats business… my point is.. Just cause his “image” is different than the one that is more POPULAR right now (gangsta shit) doesnt mean it is not an image.. you act like he is refreshing but he is just another product put out there by the lables..

Labels were try’na sign Kanye’s too. Right now, we’re still suffering from too many Jay’s being signed. And lets not even talk about how many Young Cheezys exist. But at least if he does well it will be a change of pace for the industry. I still will be bumpin’ independants and formin’ my own opinion. But I can’t stop how labels choose to dictate certain images. Whatever sellin’ is what they’re rollin’ with. But that doesn’t mean kid isn’t nice. Are you tellin’ me that if Jay-Z co-signed your way into the game that you wouldn’t take it with no inhibitions? If you say no, then you’re a liar. Lupe paid his dues and just happened to have the most powerful man in music co-sign it.

ok, so you can say that for every rapper on the face of the earth. and how is it not real? he really is a nerdy kid who skateboards and collects Japanese toys, so whats fake about his image?
August 21st, 2006 at 12:39 pm
youre buying into crap.. if you want REAL GOOD MUSIC, with lyrics and a meaning that is official and is not YOUNG JEEZY there is alot of room between that and LUPUS TOBASCO..
go listen to MF DOOM or somthing..

August 21st, 2006 at 12:43 pm
the fact that niggas is debating lupe’s image means he won already. most shit is so cookie cutter that its nothing to say. anybody debating rick ross’s cover or image? nope cause we know it. and lupe is far closer to nas than jay in his approach and rhyme style. i peeping how certain nas stans can’t even see his influence on lupe. fake rap fans…that’s why talib has to beg yall niggas to LISTEN…

^ I see your point, but if you nice, you nice. There are plenty of cats who tried the Kanye/Lupe route and they SUCK at it. Just so happens that they were nice at what they do. Nobody said that the labels didn’t PURPOSELY look for these cats. Both had Jay as a co-sign which helped a LOT. But does that take away from the artistry? Not at all chief. I know good music when I hear it. I’m still waitin’ for Jay to co-sign Jean Grae so that the dick riders will finally recognize her skills and she can get that exposure.

Jean Grae lyrics to “No Doubt”
I ain’t afraid to shine different.. c’mon
Devoted life to the dream of lights and fortune and fame
I might just gain the vision, or just might be livin in vain
See in the game it’s cool strolls and platinum thugs
Stack the cash, drugs and women ; bubble in crime, trouble in time
I stay humble with mine, had drama for words
Encountered some birds who tried to take the shine
But I’m illuminatin like a thousand frozen wrists in the glint of the sun
Worth the Franklin Mint and Wall Street combined into one
They can’t see it yet though, different like niggaz sayin petrol
for gas, english metric system, graded on the past
Just tryin to reach y’all, no one’s at my arms length
Wanna stay in the race but slowly runnin out of breath
They all alike, can’t understand, maybe it’s safest
to play the role and be another glitch in The Matrix
Repetitive flow, embedded in dough
I run the risk of pissin everybody off, but I don’t care if you know
- Jean Grae – chorus
Yo I’m on the line like white, china, table
Lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time man
Fuck y’all, say it
Bring it, lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time
Things ain’t different, say it
Bring it, I’m on, now
- Jean Grae –
Quit for good, too many times, shit maybe I should
But it won’t prevent rejection reappearin in life
I even lay the toughest down for you
Paint the ground blood pink for you, only so that you feel me right
Then hear me tight from the ills perhaps
But not a lot of scenes like movie stills are fleein from fiends and caps
I had, thrills and high spills, couple of hot chases
Romance with Jacks, Jills in dirty places
No jail cell been filled and no court cases
But committed murder of flesh, two of my own faces
At best I’m, a dime each, not a dozen, never cheap
Fornicated adultery once and now I never cheat
Younger sibling or two, family disfunctional
Problem with bein on time, hardly ever punctual
Punchclocks give me the runs, just not in my blood Akki
Y’all flashin guns at me, time to go ? Let it be
- Jean Grae – chorus
Yo I’m on the line like white, china, table
Lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time man
Fuck y’all, say it
Bring it, lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time
Things ain’t different, say it
Bring it, I’m on, now
- Jean Grae –
See I got these bill collectors, practically at the door chillin
I can’t explain to Visa how I’m tryin to stack a million
Hustle on the side for chump change, it’s not big time
I only do it for fries, chicken and wine and hump days
Reality spit, dudes and rap bitches sick of me
And if they right, they still print, I’m tryin to do calligraphy
All real, sit up just all night, just thinkin it’s all wrong
Won’t sleep ’til everything’s alright
I made brush fire noise ; I need four alarm
Three A.M. on the lawn with two kids and one slipper on
Blaze now, your days phase out like old sitcoms
Tryin to save the show by puttin new fuckin kids on
Love me or not, respect it for what it’s worth
I’m like a bundle of dough in a knot in a purse under your cot
Undiscovered lines like connectin the dots
It’s gonna happen, sooner or later
Fuck rappin, just givin data
- Jean Grae – chorus
Yo I’m on the line like white, china, table
Lay it all out for the shit ; nigga, no, doubt
Fuck real, I’m right, told you the last time man
Fuck y’all, say it

im really suprised nobody seems to have caught what I was saying..
and for the record.. I dont like MF DOOM..
I would rather listen to my air conditioner..
I agree, I would rather the lables push stuff like Lupus Tobasco instead of Young Jeezy.. for sure.. I would be the happiest guy in the world..
all I was saying is.. Lupus is in that spotlight right now, and is surrounded by alot of HYPE.. I just think he is getting props cause he is “different” not cause he is great…
anyways.. Im done talking about Lupus Tobasco for now..
I just want to hear some dope music that comes from the heart.. That is made with respect to the art form and the culture.. I dont care who it is, or where they are from as long as it is sincere and has a point to it…
if it is made under those circumstances Im all for it..

This kid is wack….I will say that forever. Will never respect this kid. Stick to being a skater….hanging out with that other retard, Kanye….they are what’s wrong with Hip Hop…along with Lady Sovreign….I guess anybody can be a rapper and can be Hip Hop nowadays if a fag like this is…..if he is Hip Hop, what’s stoppin a cheerleader from being a rapper….or a rocker “dude”….or Paris Hilton….etc.?
Don’t say I’m buggin…think about it, it makes sense. Hip Hop is Hip Hop…it’s not what fuckin Kanye wants us to accept! You people following these retards are not helping so stop saying Hip Hop is wack now, and then you’re on these people’s dicks….
Eskay, I got nothin against you, but half the posts on here seem to be about this guy or his friends….c’mon.

August 21st, 2006 at 1:51 pm
One for the money
Two for pussy and foreign cars
Three for Alize niggaz deceased or behind bars
I rap divine Gods check the prognosis, is it real or showbiz?
My window faces shootouts, drug overdoses
Live amongst no roses, only the drama, for real
A nickel-plate is my fate, my medicine is the ganja
Here’s my basis, my razor embraces, many faces
Your telephone blowin, black stitches or fat shoelaces
Peoples are petrol, dramatic automatic fo’-fo’ I let blow
and back down po-po when I’m vexed so
my pen taps the paper then my brain’s blank
I see dark streets, hustlin brothers who keep the same rank
Pumpin for somethin, some uprise, plus some fail
Judges hangin niggaz, uncorrect bails, for direct sales
My intellect prevails from a hangin cross with nails
I reinforce the frail, with lyrics that’s real
Word to Christ, a disciple of streets, trifle on beats
I decifer prophecies through a mic and say peace.
I hung around the older crews while they sling smack to dingbats
They spoke of Fat Cat, that nigga’s name made bell rings, black
Some fiends scream, about Supreme Team, a Jamaica Queens thing
Uptown was Alpo, son, heard he was kingpin, yo
Fuck ‘rap is real’, watch the herbs stand still
Never talkin to snakes cause the words of man kill
True in the game, as long as blood is blue in my veins
I pour my Heineken brew to my deceased crew on memory lane

“wack shit”
“mad homo”
bla bla bla. this is NOTHING like ANY other hip hop album cover on the shelves today. and you and everyone else will notice that, like it or not. props to lupe and props to nopattern.com for the art
August 21st, 2006 at 7:15 pm
It makes me laugh when a bunch of “hip hop heads” hate on someone like Lupe cause he’s doing his own damn thing. It may not be “street,” or “gangsta” or “thug”, or whatever adjective you prefer to describe your choice of music… but how can you hate on someone cause he ain’t afraid to speak on what he really about.
So the dude likes video games and skateboarding and all that shit that you hoods consider to be uncool. I’d be willing to bet my left nut that most of you motherfuckers have some secret interest that you’d never let on to anyone cause it might ruin your whole “thug” persona and put you in a different light as a real person. I like blunts and guns and selling cocaine and all that too, but I also like to bring my ass home at night and play some video games cause I don’t feel the need to uphold my thug image.
Homophobes.

I did the art for the cover…
While it doesn’t seem to be getting great feedback so far, I am thrilled to have worked on it and it’s exactly what Lupe wanted and exactly how I envisioned his ideas he gave to me.
August 21st, 2006 at 8:47 pm
please say that gay shit isnt so…

2nd GAYEST ALBUM COVER EVER!!!! The first is Prince’ first album (You know the one when is butt ass naked on the fuckin horse looking like a straight up bitch?)
Ima still by the album, Ill just put in my M.O.P firing Squad CD case.

wtf is he thinking with this fruit ass cover… how you gunna be reppin that real hiphop and come with some outer space touch me in the wrong places 80′s rock cover looking piece of shit… this album better be hot shit cause i dont wonna be seen walking with something like that if its flop!!!

Dont care for the cover still going to buy the cd
August 24th, 2006 at 11:28 am
Yall Just don’t get it. And Honestly you all never will. Remember “Back to the Future”, Voltron, Transformers, Thunder Cats. Lupe is taking you back. This is one of the first real artist to come out in a while. Talking about his life which is like most. You don’t look to be killers and thieves, or pimps and hoes. But growing up you look at your imagination. Use that Imagination thing that God gave you. In the Words of Napoleon Dynaminte “Gosh”
August 27th, 2006 at 1:22 am
Lupe is not a gangsta rapper!He is not like any rapper dude out.He is different and I respect that.
August 30th, 2006 at 9:33 am
Lupe iz cool in hiz own way he a good rapper an all dat but what the fuck iz this shit hiz fuckin album cover for jus seein this shit makes me not wanna buy it no more, but of course i will :)
September 14th, 2006 at 9:49 pm
the cover is kinda fruity and it does remind me of MJ, but i still respect this nigga’s music. i mean at least he has the damn mothafuckin guts to be himself which a lot of rapper from now are missing.it gets tiring when you see all the rappers w/ the same gangsta/thug/hustla attitude,likeif they copying from each other.sometimes change is a good thing unless the person is maaaaad wack.
September 21st, 2006 at 1:04 pm
You kids gotta be about the fuckin dumbest bunch of no nothing about hiphop I ever heard in my life. why you ask? because all you do is complain.
“Oh, the cover wah wah cry.” The cover is really tight if you ask me..
You would rather have him eating a slice a pizza and drinking a bud light?
like I said.. Kids. Your the reason for this hip hop crash and burn.
Fuck off. I wish I could stand you all in a line then put a bullet though the person in front, hoping it passes through all of you..
October 9th, 2006 at 12:47 am
The cover is very well done. It reflects Lupe’s personality, his influences and his interests. I don’t think it is meant to impress, but to reflect, as it should. Besides, it allows you a glimpse into the other world of hip hop, the one that holds quality and originality in high esteem, as opposed to the quantity, excess, and violence that mainstream hip hop sells to the masses. The whole point of music is expression and if you do not respect someone for their expression, including how they want to present their cover, then just close your eyes and cover your ears. Hip hop is not about conformity. Criticism is good, but not when it is tainted with disrespect. Also, listen to the music first, then look at the cover again and you will see that they go hand in hand, there is no discrepancy between what the visual reveals and what the music reveals. (P.S. Sorry for being so corny.)

Filthy I would respect your opinion if your flow was anywhere near Lupe’s but I went on your wack ass myspace and wasted my time on your hackneyed, rehashed, stale, dickriding flow. YO ass aint never gonn sell. If Lupe aint nothin special why YOU wasting YOUR time, posting every reason your ignorant ass can think of that the kid is garbage. I personally think that that’s important time that you need to step up your flow. Your a sad white boy from Pompano Beach. You better get into school motherfucker.
