And if any record executives are reading this page GIVE US MORE LUPE FIASCO/WALE (from DC) TYPE RAPPERS who spit concious but interesting lyrics.

Not everyone can appreciate genius CHRIS, but its good to know you know that too.

well

you cant put so many flashing light in a video like that,
ofcorse the song is about the spotlight etc, but there are mad people with epilepsy out there and notice how theres now warnings of videos with flashing light etc.

and i got tired after a minute.

[Chorus – Matthew Santos]

[Verse 1 – Lupe Fiasco]
Yeah, uh
A fresh cool young Lu’
Tryna’ catch his microphone check 2, 1, 2
Wanna’ believe my own hype but it’s too untrue
The world brought me to my knees, what have you brung you?
Did you improve on the design? Did you do somethin’ new?
Well ya’ name ain’t on the guest list, who brung you?
YOU! The more famous person you come through
And the sexy lady next to you, you come too
And then it hit me
Standin’ outside of heaven waitin’ for god to come and get me
I’m too uncouth
Unschooled to the rules and too gum shoe
Too much of a new comer and too un-cool
Like Shadow and Lavelle, I battle wit’ it well
Tho I need holiday like lady who sung “Blue”
Go back, whatever you did you undo
Heavy as heaven
The devil on me, two ton’s too

[Chorus – Matthew Santos]

[Verse 2 – Lupe Fiasco]
And ya’ better wear ya’ shaaades
The spotlights here can burn holes through the staaage
Down to the basement pass the Indian graves
Where the dinosaurs laid
Then out through shinin’, nearly miss the airliners
Magnified times five, ‘less its pointed at the ryhmer
Ricochets off the moon and sets the forest ablaaaze
Now that’s important to say
‘Cause even with all that most of us don’t want it to faaade
We want it to braid, meaning we want it to grow
Meaning we want it to staaay
Like the Governor called and he told him to waaait
Un-strap him from the chair and put him back in his caaage
The audience ain’t faaazed
And they ain’t gon’ clap and they ain’t gon’ praise
They want everything back that they’ve paid
‘Cause they’ve been waitin’ since ten to see the lights get dim

[Chorus – Matthew Santos]

[Verse 3 – Lupe Fiasco]
So chauffeur chauffeur come and take me away
‘Cause I’ve been standin’ in this line for like five whole days
Me and security ain’t getting’ along
And when I got to the front, they told me all of the tickets were gone
So just take me home where the mood is mellow
And the roses are grown, M&Ms are yellow
And the light bulbs around my mirror don’t flicker
Everybody gets a nice autograph picture
One for you and one for your sister
Who had to work tonight but is an avid listener
Every songs her favorite song and mics don’t feedback
All the reviewers say “You need to go and see that”
And everybody claps ’cause everybody is pleased
And then they all take the stage and start performin’ for me
Like, ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha, ha

[Chorus – Matthew Santos]

READ THE LYRICS, and then tell me Lupe isn’t cold.

IM SORRY TO ANY BACKPACKERZ I OFFEND, BUT IM NOT FEELING THIS SHIT. TELL ME SOMETHING THATS HOT IN THIS VERSE? “JUST CAUSE YOU DONT UNDERSTAND HIM DON’T MEAN THAT HE’S NICE”-JAY-Z.

I love the song and hype did his thing with the video, but Lupe is a Kanye West wanna be.
Tonythetiger Says:
November 5th, 2007 at 3:54 pm
First of all Jay-Z said that about Nas when we ALL know Nas is lyrically better than Jay-Z.

Second you quoting Jay-Z to prove Lupe is wack is STUPID because the first nigga who said Lupe was nice as hell was, hmmm, Jay-Z himself, president of Def Jam, just before he did a remix on Lupes 1st album.

Third if you can’t see what differentiates Lupe from all the other mainstream and manufactured ‘gangsta’ rappers right now then you should stick with your ipod-playin-wipe-me-down songs.
Tonythetiger Says:
November 5th, 2007 at 3:56 pm
NO Kanye west is a lupe wannabe, that nigga stole so many of lupes songs when lupe was still underground that Kanye HAD to put him in his touch the sky video and record.

DOn’t believe me, learn about who originated the original diamionds from sierra leone record.

i dont want lupe to be mainstream, cuz then the same shit that happpened to kanye will happen to him. no disrespect to kanye, but when preppy bitches are reppin the college dropout shirt, something is wrong. keep lupe where hes at now, and his name will not be blemished
