    i would never expect lu to dumb his songs down anyway, i think he’d stop rappin before he did that.

    @ 18 (Latin King) FOr all the sh!t Jigga man stole you really got the nerve to call Lupe a swagger jacker? Or was that jus sarcasm… i hope it was sarcasm!

    Lupe is too much for most so don’t expect him to convert folks! But for the folks who get it he mos def has a new version of crack out there!

    Chicago!!!! best tracks, illest flows, most flava, best m.c.’s. east coast used to flow tight like this,now its mostly gun-tough guy talk. its a long way to the bottom.

    ACHILLEZ

    As a chicago artist myself i have to say that Lupe fiasco is the best to come out in a while. If u listen to both of his farinhite 1st and 15 mixtapes u wuold have already known. but this shit right here gon wake every body up. this niggas the truth. Quote from a track from achillez,”when chi-ca-guys snap wat these niggaz gon do, they medicated wit mines and lu they cant even stomach u”

  34. 09.28.07 at 7:19 am

    Hot video for an even hotter song. Not all videos should be directed by Hype. Who lost his touch a long time ago in my opinion.

  35. 09.28.07 at 7:38 am
    chibixleon

    I love it! Lupe obviously rapping a lot more relaxed than his first album, less presure on him this time around! AWESOME!

    @ #33

    Lupe had 3 F1/15 mixtapes.
    And like 5-6 other mixtapes.

    Niggas sleep on him cause all they ever heard was his radio singles, which in all actuality or far from his best tracks.
    I did fuck wit Daydreamin heavy though.

    They need to dl a few of his joints and see.
    Or atleast go to imeem.com and listen to a few freestyles.
    The nigga style is crazy, he got a wide range.

  37. 09.28.07 at 8:25 am
    drew

    Lupe stay on point like viagra overdoses. CHICAGO MANG!

  38. 09.28.07 at 9:30 am

    I really wanna say something but just in case one of y’all start crying imma save the tears lol…but he remind me of someone of this track( I’ll leave that to the imagination i guess.)

    This is what the game needs. Some real smart MC’s. Video is low budget but you dont need al the flash when emough of us have a hard time following the words. Rewind dat!!! Good shit lupe

  41. 09.28.07 at 10:07 am
    juicygotemcrazy

    The video is wack tho!

    I’m fearless
    now hear this
    I’m earless
    and I’m peerless(having no equal)
    that means I’m eyeless
    which means I’m tearless
    which means my iris resides where my ears is
    which means I’m blinded
    but Imma find it
    I can feel its nearness
    but Imma veer(change direction)so I don’t come near
    like a chicken or a deer
    but I remember I’m not a listener or a seer
    so my windshield smear
    here, you steer I shouldn’t be behind this
    clearly because my blindness
    the windshield is minstrel
    the whole grill is roadkill
    so trill and so sincere
    yea I’m both them there
    took both pills
    when a bloke(man)in a trench coat
    and the locs in the chair had approached him here
    and he clear as a ghost
    so a biter of the throats in the mirror
    the writer of the quotes for the ghosts
    who supplier of the notes to the living
    riveting is rosy
    pockets full of posies
    given to the mother of the deceased
    awaken at war
    ’til I’m restin’ in peace, peace, peace

    this verse is so hard….he talks about a whole bunch of shit but he stays on subject.

  44. 09.28.07 at 11:38 am
    flatbush34st

    my interpretation is like….he makes reference about the Matrix…like when Morpheus(man in trenchcoat) approached Neo because he thought he was the one. The whole being real vs. fake theme is going on in this verse it seems like.

    I might be wrong….but that what it seems like to me.

    For all the verbal support let’s see who rushes to purchase this album like they did with the 50 vs Kanye scam.

    ME? I brought his 1st ablum on principle alone, but was pleasantly surprised the kid is a talent mos definitely on the rise.
