THIS IS THE BEST LUPE SONG. He put a totally original spin on what most rappers glorify. 1. Steady Mobbing 2. Hurt me soul 3. He say, she say 4. Theme Music to a drive by. 5. Intruder alert

Years later, it’s hard to get through this song without tears coming to my eyes. It’s what we see out here in Chicago, the reality is captured so perfectly.

And this was before the chaos on our news about Chicago. Lupe prophesied without knowing what was to come on the south side. He spoke of the chaos and cure before them folks grabbed it and sold it to the record labels and fox news.

It was in his original F&L LP but it was leaked a few months before its release and Lupe re-did some of the album, changed the names of some songs and added some different ones, took some off. Unforunately, this was one of the songs that he excluded in his final LP he released last year. And yeah, this is his best song. The lyrics are so deep, and the chorus is powerful.

For those that may not know, this was supposed to be on Food & Liquor until the album leaked months before the official release. This was on the finished album leak, then Lupe scrapped a few of those songs and made new ones for the version of F&L we know today.. like Daydreaming, I Gotcha, & others.
