just because the message is good doesnt mean the song is good. the song is still mediocre. this is a music industry not an open mic at the local church. the music quality matters. this is not even an album track. let alone a single.

@ewio, HAHAHA you look retarded. This beat is hard, the message is pure, and the lyrics are clever. You want him to be like every other rapper that disrespects women? Kill yourself now. Idiots like you are cancers to the human population. Go Lupe.

@ewio, sometimes it is about the message in the music. not about bi$%hes and hoes or money and cars. society needs music like this for people to wake up and not be always ignorant. come on man. it comes a point in all of our lives when we gotta be grown up.

@ewio, Nah man I feel you, fuck all these other dudes saying the tracks dope. It has nothing on pre-enemy of the state lupe. The beat is mainstream, his flow is way off, he sounds disinterested.

“Oh man the message though its go good n shit” “You want lupe to make tracks about bitches n hoes?” Sigh…fucking idiots.

If you people can’t see that Lupe has changed completely as an artist you’re all just blind

@El Zilcho, you guys dont get it. all he’s saying is that it takes more to make a great song than just a good message. this is the music industry. not the good message industry. you back packers have such low standards and 90% of you have no concept of song structure or a hit record. that’s why you hate on guys like wayne because he isnt preaching about the ills of society. you think that a good song means you’re talking about a good message. it doesnt. just because the message is there that doesnt mean that the music is there as well.

@Frjn, if it was only about the message then guys like immortal technique would be top of the charts. but he isnt, because musically he is mediocre. and i also think this song leaves alot to be desired.

@ewio, I’m a fan of most of Lupe’s music but you Lupe stans are some of the most sensitive, fanboyish bunch.

Relax…just because someone doesn’t like this song, does not mean they’re a Lil Wayne, Soulja Boi, or Waka fan.

Now on to the song, the message is great, the delivery is average, the lyrics had its moments, but the execution was horrible. I understand the Lex Luger-ish beat and dumbed-down delivery is part of the satire of the song, but it seems so forced.

And I laugh at the guy that said “the beat is hard”…lol. If it was Ross on this song, you would attack everything about the song, including the beat.

And y’all buy the sh*t, caught up in the hype
Cause the n*gga wear a kufi, it don’t mean that he bright
Cause you don’t understand him, it don’t mean that he nice
It just means you don’t understand all the bullsh*t that he write

the message was cool, but lupe’s flow kinda sounds like he is trying to be someone else…i can already tell he shouldnt have named this food and liquor 2 because its not gonna live up to the hype smdh

This song is real art, and even if other rappers tried writing about real issues like the one in this song, they still wouldn’t be able to. @ewio and @lyfechanges you two can go kill yourselves. This isn’t souljaboy or 2 chainz. Or those pussies lil Wayne and drake.

Some of ya’ll are stupid as fu…Lupe’s a genius, but his music hasn’t impressed lately, this track included…But to listen to Lupe Fiasco and say “fuck the message” is the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard. His message is the SOLE reason why he’s a mainstay in the game.

And BTW, the title of this tune is “Bitch Bad”, which is a reference to a verse in one of his earlier tracks (mayyyyybe Kick Push pt.2) on the first Food & Liquor album – His best album by a mile!

You kids don’t know anything, so do us all a favour – Listen to Waka Flocka and continue dumb yourself down.

You’ll never be able to HEAR Lupe Fiasco…

Not feeling every Lupe song= “you must listen to Wayne, Waka, Drake, Gucci, etc.”

Ya’ll stans are just as bad as the ones ya’ll calling out.

Yeah…great message and all…but Lupe is so much better than this. It’s like he don’t even care no more. Nigga sounded like Charles Hamilton. We saw a glimpse of the old Lupe on Double Burger but ain’t seen it much otherwise.

The song doesn’t have to be good itself to send a good message. One of the first things people are gonna notice are the lyrics, and these in particular have a good lesson, just like most of his other songs. Lupe Fiasco is doing a good job, def one of my favorite rappers.
