If I could listen to one artist for the rest of my life lupe would be that pic. A lot of music got my through some tough times. Wish people would give lupe more credit like he’s not among the elite.

I remember having Lupe's albums on repeat while taking the MTA to high school.. I remember the conversations we used to have at lunch, talking hip hop, and the joy u felt when u found out that someone else knew who the REAL best rapper alive was!!
Alot of his archived music is gonna be coming out.... The contract is officially over and they dont have rights to it.... So under his 1st/15th label can put them out .... Bet there hundreds of these

Love you my brother, I'm turning 27 in a few days and I been rocking with you since 13 14 God you Lupe, you literally one of the greats Respect from Paterson Paterson NJ
Lupe is an elite artist. His word flow and lyrics are on point. Saw him in concert around when he released superstar. Mid show he lost all power and lights. instead of stopping the show he just started freestyling in the darkness and absolutely killed it.
@@cwopre I interpreted it as he's extending his arms out, like holding the handles of a bike, but instead he's surrendering his weapon to the opposition. (I.e. rifle sideways). I could be absolutely wrong though, haha
AAAAAHHHHH! Just gotta scream! This is real Hip Hop! The breakers, the bars, the beats, the vibe, the flavor! And dang! Who is the little dude who be killing it with those powermoves? Put him in BC One already!
that third verse was crazy then to think, rapping was his “fourth option” career wise. Like how was rapping number 4 on the list of things to be when I grow up ??
This is the Lupe I came to enjoy and appreciate!!! Regardless of if he no longer big time in the mainstream, he stayed true to his talent AND NEVER COMPROMISED!!!! That's a feat in itself!!! Love!!!
dorian roberts I’ve been to 4 concerts and I met him once working in LA one of the bests days of my life. I was completely star struck. I try to go every year he has a tour. Gives one of the bests performances hands down
I committed to Lupe the summer of eighth grade and started to dig for all the songs I could listen to, because that’s what I do when I find a love for an artist, and when this song popped up on my Friday Apple Music playlist y’all .... LISTEN, I knew it was ... Say Something Freestyle Lupe .. OG Bobby Johnson Freestyle Lupe ... and he also has ... Run Game ! On that same little three piece re-released tracks album! So ... you’re welcome 😂😍.
Lupe: “penny’s from heaven is the same as a semi from the second, and I reign supreme, turn ya umbrellas upside down, did you even catch the change in theme?” Also Lupe: “Y’all penny’s from the penthouse, I’m 50 20s from the 20th floor” WHICH ONE IS IT LUPE ARE YOU CASH OR A COIN
for the past couple months I've been listening to Drogas Wave and Tetsuo & Youth religiously. Finding so much more nuances that I missed over the past couple of years. My hope is that years from now these albums will be revered and people will always be able to go back and visit them.
Oh my God, dude. And here I was worried I wouldn't see another new Lupe banger and you come in here absolutely wreck my speakers like that!? Oh hell yeah 🙌
Check out the lyric breakdown videos of his songs on the channel TimesNuRoman. They are really good, people think it is actually Lupe that makes them himself. Also on RapGenius people put explanations
Omg I don't know what it was but this was making me tear up. I just feel that spirit of true Hip Hop is coming back thanks to those like Lupe Fiasco! I couldn't feel this more brother! This was a beautiful music video! A big up to him for this jam!
He just sits, and watches the people in the boxes
Everything he sees he absorbs and adopts it
He mimics and he mocks it
GIVE US THIS VIDEO NOW LUPE
Someone's been paying attention.
I'm glad the lupe lyrics still lingering this long
Really hates the box but he can't remember how to stop... it
So he continues to watch it
Hoping that it'll give him somethin that he can box with

They don't give him the credit he deserves because he doesn't dumb it down. But he is one of the best to ever do it.

I remember having Lupe's albums on repeat while taking the MTA to high school.. I remember the conversations we used to have at lunch, talking hip hop, and the joy u felt when u found out that someone else knew who the REAL best rapper alive was!!
Lupe's 'Lost Tapes' coming??? 👀👀👀
HERE FOR IT
A bunch of shit will drop when Atlantic loses rights to his old shit, like Tetsuo & Youth vinyls
I love Nas but I think Lupe's Lost Tapes is gonna be a superior mixtape.
KenTerminatedbyGoogle without a doubt
I hopes
dawg... 'revenge of the nerd' Lupe >>> priceless art
Alot of his archived music is gonna be coming out.... The contract is officially over and they dont have rights to it.... So under his 1st/15th label can put them out .... Bet there hundreds of these
For real....?
Exactly...it sounds like his old sound gangsta groove!!
oh, thought these were re-releases
I thought he had stopped rapping
Amir Shabazz did you listen to Drogas Waves ?
lupe went in a time machine, this is young early 20's lupe spitting this
well, it actually is cuz its from 2006
@@cocoapowered ok I just thought he wanted to reprise an old flow cuz it sounded super familiar
@@ChanceJolivette i thought so too. this old style was Lupe's best. after The Cool Lupe kinda lost it. maybe cause of the change in production
LUPE >
Lupe is the most underrated rapper ever. His name should be up there with pac, hov, k.dot etc. He is god tier of rap
Sorry k.fot didn't belong there. Good yes but content is surface level. IMO
@@MetalFacedGamer Lol
@@MegaCoolboy79 🤷♂️
@@MetalFacedGamer you Should really give him a closer listen. Kendrick does usually have a deeper message in his songs.
@@boricuakid29 deeper than lupe. Is be down to go song for song. We could do it via a chat app. I could record it and post it if you're down.
To all NEW rappers... this is what lyrical skills sound like
Sounds like NBA live menu music. It has that early 00’s sound
@Ides94 Yes he clear said early 00s.
Ahaha also thought about it ! ) Like a "Kick, Push" track ) Great !
Theo Blanch its definitely live 👌🏾

God. I love this. This fills my spirit.
This is old lupe pre f&l. I mean it's gotta be
That voice lol

Shit that Atlantic probably told him NO to.
Vintage verses probably, a Atlantic release food& liqour era Lu, probably to be put on lasers
It is
Love you my brother, I'm turning 27 in a few days and I been rocking with you since 13 14
God you Lupe, you literally one of the greats
Respect from Paterson Paterson NJ
Lupe could drop his own Lost Tapes and I would be very satisfied.
Lupe is an elite artist. His word flow and lyrics are on point. Saw him in concert around when he released superstar. Mid show he lost all power and lights. instead of stopping the show he just started freestyling in the darkness and absolutely killed it.
Man if lupe started flowing like this again... breh
Fahrenheit 1/15 era. This voice, flow, and lyrics will always hold a special place in my life. Young Lupe the goat
"They waiting on the down fall of a G like ground floor" this is art
Chris Okonji 💯
The man is incredibly smart.
Double and triple entendres are his breakfast 🔥
Lupe Fiasco is without a doubt in my mind, one of best rappers to have ever worked in pop music.
Man Lupe been had bars he should be one of the goats right now so under rated but real heads know!!
The Greatest!!!
"Well I never hold a rifle like motorcycle"
something small but clever like this is why Lupe will always be my favorite
Chris Mendiola i don’t get the reference 🤔

Brandon Radziewicz WOW
This sound needs a comeback. This is that 00's underground sound
This isn't new, this was on one of his mixtapes from like 2004. I have it on my cell phone lol
daysErlock didn’t know
I'm pretty sure this is from a dj mixtape that was released in 2010. DJ absolute I believe
Cell Phone? Damn. BOOME-
Which mixtape?
Lol facts I saw the headlines and I was like 😂 this is mixtape Lu
How’d I miss this
Liked the video before the beat even dropped 👍🏾👍🏾 Lu the goat
IKR
The Lupe Fiasco time machine is coming back!
ahhhh i love this Lupe flow comin back when its needed the most
Lupe sky high above the competition. Floss baby, keep that shine!
Wow, this song was recorded 15 years ago? That's insane
Idk why this is just now in my feed.... But I'm here for it!!!! Been missing Lupe for a minute!!!!
Heard the “Yeah” and instantly thought, “This is Trails Mixtape and Failure Lupe”. Then watched a kid start Milli Rockin then I got confused 😂
😂😂😂
That did throw me off🤣😂🤣
He’s making vids for old songs
Lol! Same
I'm a simple man.. I see Lupe.. I click and enjoy.
That lil boy killin it in the begging!!🔥🔥🔥💯.. This is the Lupe I'm used to!
Eugene Dantzler because this is old lupe 🙄

That 1st and 15th swag. Love the timelessness of Lupe 🙏
Lupe is a GOAT
Nah Lupe Is Theee GOAT!

AAAAAHHHHH! Just gotta scream! This is real Hip Hop! The breakers, the bars, the beats, the vibe, the flavor! And dang! Who is the little dude who be killing it with those powermoves? Put him in BC One already!
"They waiting for the downfall of a G like ground floor."
Getem!!
Peep what he said before that about 50 20’s... that equals 1,000
Lupe go in just like Lupin the 3rd 😁
that third verse was crazy
then to think, rapping was his “fourth option” career wise. Like how was rapping number 4 on the list of things to be when I grow up ??
timeless

@@mitchellengland2057 I did actually, thanks. Anything else you wanna say Mitchell?
Fun Fact: Lupe recorded this song back in 06. It just never got released
🔥🔥🔥
Great song
This sound is crazy
Black Mets Fan sounds like it could’ve been in nba live 04 or 05
This is the Lupe I came to enjoy and appreciate!!! Regardless of if he no longer big time in the mainstream, he stayed true to his talent AND NEVER COMPROMISED!!!! That's a feat in itself!!! Love!!!
This sounds like F and L Lupe, and I love it!!!
This flow sounds pre-Lasers! My favorite lupe bars/songs come from that era🔥🔥🔥
Every kid is a king in their own mide
*mind
So Happy to be part of this video!! Thanks a lot Lupe!
I was *25* when Lupe first came out and I still wanted to be like him when I grew up...!!!👍🏾🎤🎧🎶😁🔥
Str8
Yes!!! Lupe we've miss you!
Just when I was starting to look for some new 🔥🔥🔥, here comes lupe to the rescue
Lupe is the king. Or one of them. Lupe for president 2020!
First off lupe is the king of lyrics. When’s the next album an tour? Love this beat.
William Warfield this is 15 years old homie
I’m saying in general I have lupe as the best lyricist hands down. Regardless how old the track may be still cold.
@@williamwarfield758 I concur
William Warfield definitely the best. i swear his lyrics live in the future and the present at the same time.
dorian roberts I’ve been to 4 concerts and I met him once working in LA one of the bests days of my life. I was completely star struck. I try to go every year he has a tour. Gives one of the bests performances hands down
That flow that got you walking into work on Friday ready to smash it. The weekend is right there over the hill 👋🏾
This is the illest. Hip Hop will never die.
Oh yes! LUUUPEEE! Better than ever!!
PSA Lupe is performing the entire Food & Liquor album in Chicago November 21st
I saw this in california and It Was Incredible!
Abdiel L. I was there too, yes it was.
Old Lupe!!!! Man if he is releasing all of his old stuff it's gonna be a nostalgia trip.
Lupe said.." I heat pack, like injured athletes.
I'm done. Nobody fuckn with Pre Food and Liquor Lupe.
Pat Pittz nobody fuckin wit Lu NOW!!!!!
Jay z had the better verse on pressure though no hate though lupe nice
@@garfieldxnike1 he really did, and i really don't like jay-z that much
garfield you're the first person I've ever seen say such. Everyone I know that's ever heard that song say Lu killed Jay. Including me. You trippin
@@garfieldxnike1 so the pen is mightier than the sword my lord. (Jay z voice)
Man I ain't heard this track in ages, what a blast from the past. Still loving Lupe to this day!
More evidence to forward my theory that LupEND has been ready and in the vault this whole time.
True
I committed to Lupe the summer of eighth grade and started to dig for all the songs I could listen to, because that’s what I do when I find a love for an artist, and when this song popped up on my Friday Apple Music playlist y’all ....

Dope rhyme schemes.
Just copped a pair of tickets to his March 15th concert in Seattle-!!!!
My rapper early 2000s year 😍
respectable hip hop artist!!!!!
Lupe has channeled hip-hop with this one...when the mind is healthy nobody can stop you..say no to drugs ✌
You can hear it’s old lupe compared to his new shit. 🔥 either way.
beat plays nasty and Lupe nails it with precision
OG Lupe Vibes 🔥🔥🔥🔥
IDC how many conscious rappers come out, Young Lupe swag was UNMATCHED!
I Mos definitely hearing a Yassin Bey element in this Chicago hip hop
I felt it.
Lupe: “penny’s from heaven is the same as a semi from the second, and I reign supreme, turn ya umbrellas upside down, did you even catch the change in theme?”
Also Lupe: “Y’all penny’s from the penthouse, I’m 50 20s from the 20th floor”
WHICH ONE IS IT LUPE
ARE YOU CASH OR A COIN
Lyrics from the song Failure
Sadly im coin
Lupe been in my top 5 all time list.
" You ol, Tony Hawk 2020 character select music sounding as."
for the past couple months I've been listening to Drogas Wave and Tetsuo & Youth religiously. Finding so much more nuances that I missed over the past couple of years. My hope is that years from now these albums will be revered and people will always be able to go back and visit them.
Fresh to death it is :)
Oh my God, dude. And here I was worried I wouldn't see another new Lupe banger and you come in here absolutely wreck my speakers like that!? Oh hell yeah 🙌
I think Lupe's lyrics are too obscurely smart for me?
Herald Stephens well this is him 15 years ago. don’t even try today.
Check out the lyric breakdown videos of his songs on the channel TimesNuRoman. They are really good, people think it is actually Lupe that makes them himself. Also on RapGenius people put explanations
They take alot of time, but honestly studying his works make me listen to all artist more closely
Go in☮️🙏🏻❤️
Lupe putting the world on notice.
My niece is the one on the bike that falls off!! 🙂
She nailed it!
We don’t care
This beat is crazy.. And ofcourse lupe laces it as usual
last i seen this man was making karate videos in his backyard.
Lupe light-years ahead of that Walt Jr tbh
Omg I don't know what it was but this was making me tear up. I just feel that spirit of true Hip Hop is coming back thanks to those like Lupe Fiasco! I couldn't feel this more brother! This was a beautiful music video! A big up to him for this jam!
Am I wrong to like before I listen to anything put out by Lupe? I don't thinks so bro
Great to have you back since 2010 Dec 23rd almost 9 years

🐐
