Lupe fiasco vs Royce da 5’9???
-
Bruh…please let this battle happen. Both of these dudes are monsters, but I’ve been waiting a long damn time to see Lu jump on that stage and battle.
Who do you guys got? I gotta with Mr Kick push.
-
Royce called out Ransom and RJ Payne on some best rapper shit. Didn't think Lu was gonna come and test him
Don't think Royce really wants it with Lupe. He actually wants to make music with Lu
Respect to Royce but Lu would destroy 99.9 pct of rappers including them 3, id still love to see it
-
Lupe got this ez
-
@sssnaps Lupe's discography is miles deep. I don't know a song of his I dislike
-
@billyincognito Royce and Lu have a podcast together, this little encounter might’ve strained it…think the battle is a possibility.
Definitely can’t see Royce fading Lupe, no disrespect to Royce of course.
-
@12th ima be the odd one here and say I think Royce bar for bar is better than Lupe… not to take anything away from Lupe. And I like Lupe’s albums better than Royce, but bar for bar I’d have Royce winning. Royce is a punchline rapper with a crazy delivery. Lupe isn’t very animated and is more known for his story telling and deep lyrics.
-
@12th I take it back after watching that video and hearing Lupe freestyle. Idk who would win. Lupe delivery sounds better there.
-
@hollygrovemikey Royce got washed by Mister Fab in an on stage battle. Bar wise Royce is a legend, but doing that shit on stage, no beat, in a battle format is completely different from jumping on a track and bodying it…on stage battling isn’t Royces area of expertise.
Lupe on the other hand does off the top freestyles at every show, with or without a beat…that’s actually one of his strongest suits. Which is the reason why i give Lupe the edge, he’s already used to it.
-
@12th but every industry rapper I’ve seen try to get into battle rap got washed by real battle rappers.. Joe Budden, Cassidy, Canibus, Royce.. No telling if Royce learned from that L. That was like 12 years ago too
-
Gotta see this happen, a real battle. Just to throw my 2 cents in I think Ransom has definitely has the best projects as of late. Man has been on a tear
-
@hollygrovemikey how do you learn from something, if you never tried it again? Where’s the logic? Battle rapping is an art form, the shit takes practice and experience. Royce doesn’t freestyle at shows or NPR, that’s a key component in battle rap…improv. That’s something Lupe does at a high level, not to mention Lupe was considered a battle rap prodigy in Chicago, Royce admitted he never battled that much in Detroit. I just can’t see Royce taking Lu.
-
Gotta go to Harvard to be a Lupe Stan- Lupe
Lupe got this EASY
-
@12th Where’s the video of Lupe battle rapping in Chicago? Rappers always say stuff like this.. Cassidy says he’s 3000-0 or something like that… I’m not saying this because I think Lupe can’t rhyme… because he easily one of the best lyricist to ever do it, but battle rap is a completely different monster. I don’t think either one of them will be top tier battle rappers.. and you make a good point about the mistah fab battle.. soo yeah I probably wouldn’t bet any money on Royce, but I still think he got better bars than Lupe but it’s debatable…. But as an artist.. hands down Royce isn’t even in Lupe’s stratosphere.
-
@hollygrovemikey not everything has video bro lol, Lupe Is damn near 40…if not 40. But if people around the chi (common, kanye, no ID, etc) were saying Lupe was a dope battle rapper…I’ll take their word for it. I agree that i don’t think either will be top tier battle rappers, it’s like going from boxing to MMA, it would take a lot of adjustments and i don’t think that’s either of their end goals. Either way it would be fun to watch, even if they only battle each other or battle period, once.
-
@12th I’m just saying… people we’re definitely recording battles back then. I can go to YouTube and watch biggie smalls on a street corner battling 2 decades before Lupe , but I can’t see Lupe battle in the 2000’s when smack dvd was out. Either way… if a battle ever happens I’d watch, but I reconsidered i think you’re right. Royce gonna get washed.
-
Royce spits bars, but Lupe is a lyrical savant. He'll freestyle diss him for 20 minutes straight that'll decimate his existence and put him in a blender. Lol.
... and I like Royce, but he wouldn't last multiple rounds. He'd prob take one off of crowd hype and some bangers though. Lupe's last round would probably be a 50 cal machine-gun that lets off until they say stop.
-
-
@billyincognito wooooooooo!!! Man idk! I think Lupe might’ve took round 1, both of these tracks are fire! Shit this is close lmao
-
“I wasn’t even trippin when you was calling me a bitch, i was like look at Salem…calling me a witch”
“We both wear glasses, the difference is i was in classes thinking it was cool, you was thinking of skipping classes. By your track record i can tell you was skipping classics, i did it on my first one and delivered to the masses”
Smfh.
Bruh Lupe is on another planet when it comes to rapping
-
@12th Both came out swingin. Royce took weeks and Lupe replied quickly so that's something. Lu be spitting some wise hard facts. Royce gotta be a little touched
Lu really trynna bring out the best in Royce but Not Like This?
I really didn't think Royce was gonna take the bait or really take this battleDiggin the energy from both sides. Give me more
