what's the real reason why you hate Lupe Fiasco?

Question

just curious...cuz im not buying this stuff that "he doesnt go hard enough" or not enough multi's or w/e else b.s. u can come up with...whats the underlying reason you hate lupe fiasco?

if u just dont like him, thats cool..everybody wont like the same rapper, but some of yall are just goin out of ur way wit the buy or sell threads to bash him

hernandez...i said why do u hate lupe fiasco.this DOESNT have anything to do with the fans, im talkin about Lupe himself, why u dont like him

dequan: Biggie only released two albums before he died....are you saying that he was put too high up as well?

Evil, i don't like ATCQ either...do u hate me too?

Answer 1

I don't hate Lupe. He is a good artist and has good music. However, I was disappointed with the whole ATCQ fiasco......lol...maybe some people hate him cuz off all the attention he is getting and the people saying he is a savior to hip hop or something. Sometimes people being on someone's jock can make another distgusted. I get like that sometimes with certain songs or artists. Does he get over rated by others, yeah, but I think he still has some growing to do. However, at least people are listening to him and hopefully tuning out the garbage, the real garbage that is out there.

Answer 2

I don't hate Lupe Fiasco!!! I think he hot, fresh and fly. The guy has a style all his own and he definitely owns it!! He's a great rapper and his banging beats may not be "hard" enough for everyone.....but does everyone always want to hear the hard sh*t?
He is truly talented and deserves his props. He also lives his life in a positive manner.
Until I read this I never knew people had a problem with Lupe. I've loved his music, all his music since the beginning!

Answer 3

i dont hate dude i think he's cool i just think he's overrated like someone else in here said hes looked at as teh next coming or soemthing and i think they're putting too much on the guy and he's only two albums deep the cool was nice but ther are songs on the album that really throw it off as far as its status every artist has done it i mean nas has had his bad tracka long with jay-z biggie and pac as well every artist has some bad songs i just think he's being raised to high too early in his career

Answer 4

I think people tend to let their view of the artist get in the way of judging the music itself. If we all dictated our taste in music through our morals and whether artists stood for those morals, we would hate a lot of rappers.

Personally, and i've said this a lot, but i think he's arrogant. Its not the fact that he doesn't like ATCQ, its the fact that he refused to listen to them and he therefore refused to broaden his hip hop horizons. That whole laidback style can pretty much be traced back to ATCQ...so how are you gonna act like your better than the people who essentially gave you a musical route to go down? Plus he claims to be a Muslim, but didn't he slap a girl at a party? I mean i know Islam isn't the most pro-woman religion in the world..but i'm sure it says respect women...somewhere.

But yeah I think he makes good music, albeit he's a little overeaching but at least he's going in the right direction. Sure maybe he's going in that direction just to 'sound smart'..but it'd be a lot easier for him to get mainstream respect by talking about what your average mainstream rapper talks about. At the end of the day take his music for what it is, not what he is as a person.

EDIT: 'Ya rly how dumb of you too believe in rumors about the whole slapping incident.....maybe you should find out what really happend instead of believing what you hear'

LULZ calm it steph. Clearly i was nitpicking. I dont even know Islamic stances on hitting women...i'm pretty sure most sects allow it =( besides why are you so defensive? I said i like his music..i dont like him as a person or at least the outward image he projects through his actions. But then i don't know him...neither do you, so maybe you shouldn't be quick to jump to his defenses without actual proof as to what he's like. =/

Answer 5

how can anybody HATE lupe fiasco? he makes some good music-even though i never bought his album- & very talented
2! i especally like that song "kick,push" thats a cool song!! but what do they mean buy "doesent go hard enough"? he dont need 2 go hard enough,cause hes just fine the way he is right now,& i dont know why they just wont let him do his thang?

Answer 6

How can you hate the guy he has the best mainstream rap out there, he's already top 50 ever imo. The Cool is the album of the year.

Answer 7

Hnic the people who bash lupe on here don't even know why they don't even like him, they can't even back up their opinions. I understand not everybody can like the same rapper but atleast have a real reason why you don't like him. Evil just doesn't like him. =).....James t how does he sound like a nerd?......

Edit: B. lily I pefer the i'm smarter then you attitude then the my hoe looks better then your hoe attitude or the i got more money then yall broke people attitude..... so what's your point?

Answer 8

i dont see how anyone can hate him..

I guess hes not "Hood" enough to be respected, The Cool was my #2 this year, after Below the Heavens, Big Doe Rehab was 3rd


EVIL:

Have u heard The Coolest?
the entire song has a double meaning..

hes not saying My Cool young History its Michael Young history aka The Coolest

thats pretty genius if u ask me..

but if you look at that thread, i was tryin to say how he IS good, just not as incredible as people say he is. on that thread, i had ppl tell me that i was too stupid to understand, he was the next nas, and that the cool was the best album of the decade.......

you know how i feel as a muslim too, because he basically made a song the equivalent of saying "Christians believe in Jesus. We celebrate Christmas", eff the religious aspect, its also just MAD corny.

AND the tribe thing was just way too much. to say that he wouldnt even listen to it. its one thing to not have listened to it, but another to say he won't listen to it ever.

Answer 10

After The Cool...I dont understand how anyone can hate Lupe, the sh*t goes hard. If you deaf then I can understand why you hate him but other than that you got no reason!
