I'm oddly attracted to Lupe Fiasco.

I can't really explain it. I like Food & Liquor a lot and I dig this song.

Not bad thanks for the heads up OP.

You know I really wanted to like Food and Liquor but only thought it was good, not great. I think this is my favorite track:

I Gotcha

But definitely interested to check out his new album.

I really dig the album, even though if you find the original thread about the album in OOT, I didn't have the best to say about it after the first listen.

Daydreaming is my fav track from the album, but probably because Jilly from Philly KILLS it at the end.

this was supposed to be funny? I don't get it then

I only made it to the first chorus or whatever its called tho

But basically he strings a bunch of stuff together thats supposed to be really deep and "wow, intelligent!" but really its kinda stupid and doesnt make much sense, and it just comes across as someone who thinks hes realy great trying to sound really deep and then the other rap guy gets on and says that hes being to profound and smart and he needs to dumb it down

the only way this is funny is the unintentional comedy brought on by the self imposed seriousness of it.

Maybe its just a really awesome level, in which case the guy is a genius, but considering who the target audience is, I reeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaalllllllyyyyyyy doubt that.

Thank you for saying exactly what I said, but actually explaining it. ha

Song is ok, video is so meh.

Ugly Duckling did a better version of the song with the same title/concept. When they do something that isn't straight commedy rap better than you, that is not good.

In general, Lupe is awesome though.

A friend of mine reccomended UD, so I downloaded Taste The Secret/Journey to Anywhere, and I couldn't help but be completley annoyed by their style and overall lame rhyming schemes. And then I saw a video with them and could never take them seriously again.

UD is hilarious. I like Taste the Secret a lot, but it's just sooooooo corny.
