Agreed. In retrospect I was probably bein' generous givin' him the #7 spot on my "most overrated" list. I never saw what the big deal was with this cat. The "next Nas" my ass.

most people (mainstream) only know him from kick push, which has an extremely simple beat to it so.....

most really popular songs have simple beats... in fact, most hip hop tracks in general have simple beats because hip hop beats were born off the loop... i still dont think lupe is anything more than an average rapper

Lupe is actually pretty dope .. hes pretty creative with the beat selection and kinda had a cross genre album cause he had some beats that sounded a bit rock-esque (Pressure, The Instrumental) and some soulful joints too (Hurt Me Soul, Real) .. But the reason why people call him the 'next Nas' is because of his story telling abilities .. hes not the most lyrical dude but he can paint a picture in your head the way Nas did back when It Was Written was dropped .. And he also modeled his whole album after IWR ..
