I pray to the rap gods that Lupe gets infected by the Jay-Z disease, and gives the fiends their annual dosage.

CO-SIGN !!!!

retiring after 3 albums?
not likely

making more money on the 2nd and 3rd album because he said that?
definitely

is Lupe ‘dumbing it down’ by using this tactic?
*shrugs*

Lupe Is a Douche, I hope he does retire after 3 Albums then he can have some spare time to go and listen to some Old Classic Tribe Joints, Fuck You Mean You Didnt Grow Up On “Tribe” Im A White Dude From Canada And I Grew up on Tribe, Respect were the game came from, Son……………….Peace

Shelly, He kept it real, give the man some respect, at least he had the balls to speak the truth, knowing damn well there would be repercussions, also being a white boy from Canada makes you all the more likely to listen to ATCQ than say Spice 1.

[...] rap up – Lupe Speaks on Nas’ Album Title « Olli Banjo – Lifeshow (Soulmind & Paradigm Remix) Consequence – Breakfast Of [...]

DB Ossi – don’t forget the issue was not that he didn’t grow up on ATCQ, it’s him saying he has no intention of listening to ATCQ and his attitude. He came off as if he was saying ‘f*ck ATCQ’. Damn if you’re an artist, you should be making a point of seeking out the best examples of the very art you practice, so you can learn and appreciate. Lupe has shown himself to be arrogant and not in a good way.

Arrogant You said it ADB Nuff said and DB Ossi I did Listen To Spice-1 and many others, but there are old Schoolers out that that I didnt Grow up on like U.T.F.O. but that doesnt mean Ima disrespect them and say I have no intentions of listening to there music, Its not that he didnt listen to them growing up that pisses me off its the Attitude That he came with. We all have our Favs but I know that there will be no Lupe Joints for me in the future Im gonna spend my money on people who are hip hop & Respect it………………………K

ADB, i think you’re right, Lupe did come off as arrogant, but you have to realize it was in response to the idiocy of many people. Lupe made a mistake, but it happens when people are trying to crucify you for making an honest mistake. I think his comment was more of a lash out against people like Phonte of Little Brother, and not against ATCQ itself.

That nigga Jab looks/sounds like Skillz.
