@sashaj, Label made him act that way. It seems so insincere now and forced. Nothing like when he first came out :-(

@kingkoopa, actually I do know what I am talking about, I acknowledged the fact that the song Lupe is rapping over is amazing, but truth be told he doesn’t add anything to it and brings it down

Ellie Goulding is one of my favourite artists! However I don’t get the hype around Lupe. Sometimes he’s on point and sometimes he’s just lacklustre. You don’t take an amazing song like Lights and then take an even more amazing remix of it and just muffle your political agenda over it. This sounds like he just spoke over it in his car and recorded it on his phone.

Pick it up Lupe. Theres potential to amazingly sample this song to its potential. Get money bitch!

@The hell?, Coming from someone who yells “Get money” at the end of their preach, I doubt it matters what you think.

I want to express my apoiecratipn to the writer for bailing me out of this particular situation. As a result of scouting through the online world and obtaining recommendations that were not pleasant, I believed my entire life was over. Living without the strategies to the issues you have resolved as a result of your good write-up is a critical case, as well as the kind which may have negatively damaged my career if I had not encountered your web site. The ability and kindness in playing with all the pieces was very useful. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not encountered such a step like this. It’s possible to at this point relish my future. Thank you very much for this specialized and sensible guide. I will not be reluctant to suggest the website to anybody who should receive guide about this topic.
