I heard this song a minute ago on a mixtape, but thought it was just gonna be one of the countless good songs that don’t get any recognition. With everyone jumping on the “I hate hip hop” bandwagon, this will present another angle for our defense. The girl has a real nice, strong voice, and Lupe is the truth. I can’t wait for “The Cool”
Don’t understand why they gotta shoot this in Japan, I notice Lupe gotta thing for Japan just like Kanye do.
His verse was very powerful, instead of Master P and 50 talkin bout doin the right thing and do good, Lupe shud be doin this sense he spit truth…Lupe an Kayne need to do a collabo soon
I like this ALOT. It utilizes that sample right (Jeezy was NOT worthy of that Go Crazy beat). Plus, Lupe is speaking the real…talking is useless unless you do what you say or we gonna end up in a era similar to our worse times.
shouldnt of copied? dawg you’d be surprised how many hot songs use the same sample…..this is hip hop and thats the way it will always be
but yea the song is good…lupe looks kinda bored in that video lol but im loving the whole skateboard thing…its time to diversify hip hop and break its stereotype of just being that “hood shit”
if you were to actually listen to lupe, or even kno anything about the guy then you would kno that he is a self proclaimed geek. he likes skateboard shit, sneakers and anime and shit like that.
all of which are big ass hell in japan.
and japan has some sweet ass fashion too.
that has nothing to do with how good he raps though.
I hope that this is gonna be the break-through for her. She is an alright selling artist over here in Germany. People been sleeping on her ish. When she came out with “mamani” a while ago I was like dang so there we have a great female singer and songwriter again, that reminds me a lot of Lauryn Hill.. but she wont sell many units overseas, because tracks are in German. If all the joints on her new CD are like mamani but in English this time y’all need to watch out for her. Good music- the girl has got a message…
does anyone know the name of the song it was sampled from?
