I've recently trying to find some of Lupe's deeper work beyond just his normal available albums, I've only really been using so I've obviously reached a kind of roadblock. I wanted to ask if anyone had something like the mp3 files to his earlier Mixtapes like the Fahrenheit tapes or just other music that isn't available on Spotify. Is there some sort of archive that has them all? Would love to download some.
The title is clickbait, but before Iceman dropped Lupe posted on his Instagram story the words “Lake Como”, was rumored to be a song that would appear on Iceman. We were hoping for a Lupe feature! But the track didn’t appear on any of Drake’s three albums released that night.
Earlier this week Lupe put out CliqueBang on YouTube, a light freestyle over the instrumental from the Iceman song “Shabang”, where Lupe has some fun addressing online critics who complained about videos of his crowd work on the F&L tour.
On CliqueBang Lupe says, “Where is the boat? The Lake. Where is that song? It’s great.” He also adopts Drake’s flow throughout the track and uses the most basic rhyme scheme you’ll ever hear from Lupe. I think he’s asking where “Lake Como” is and, maybe in part, poking fun at Drake’s flow and technique. It’s easy for me to imagine that record getting tossed aside for an inability to keep up with Lupe.
Who is better? Aesop rock Lupe Fiasco. Or Kendrick Lamar or MF Doom. I’m talking about who is the most lyrical guy if you have to put them in a room and they have to write a song who’s coming out on top who is the best if you give these guys an hour to write a song who’s coming out on top
I really like the his album and I still hold out hope for a follow up. although I know it's not likely ever happening.
As we have seen with his recent albums being his best work so far, how far do you think Lupe can go from here? I consider Samurai to be as good, if not better than F&L and The Cool. DROGAS Wave and DRILL MUSIC IN ZION also are amazing albums. What could the trajectory be for Lupe's career? Will he ever regain any sort of mainstream relevance? Or will he end his career as a highly respected, highly rejected, highly reflected artist?
I was blown away when I first heard this
He got them highs and lows, but goddamn he’s the fucking goat bro
The Kings Arena Lupe mentions is likely the home arena of the Sacramento Kings in California.

The same speech, two totally different headlines, completely different reactions. Don't let the internet bother you today.
Went to see Lupe for the first time at Ace of Spades and it was everything I hoped for. He performed the entire Food & Liquor album.
I am from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰. So my first expose to an international artist was Eminem in 2022 when I was 16. Loved his unapolagatic nature. Without more yapping I think this his best album and top 5 hip hop albums ever.

Hey I’m a fairly new Lupe fan and I was wondering if there were any songs I can use for my graduation pics.
Did Lupe have any other performers besides Billy Blue? Did he perform Jay Z’s verse on pressure? Any freestyles or exclusive info that he shared?
In Sacramento, he hinted to new music coming out in the future 😁.
Lol, this man is really the GOAT. He just ran all the way through The Instrumental and is now starting the whole set over bcuz some folks said his vocal volume was off. Track 1, RESTART.
