Better Rapper Vol. 100: Pusha T or Lupe Fiasco

[CeLLaR-DooR]

Rapper: Pusha T

Lyricist: Lupe Fiasco

When you say rapper you gotta bring up things outside of music and the artist's range. Pusha is CEO/President of GOOD Music, had amazing albums with the Clipse, sold more records too and crafted his own lane as an artist without his brother into one of the most revered rappers on the mic. Add to that he's battled cats too and beat Lil Wayne. Lupe Fiasco is no slouch but as a total package I'd bet my chips on Pusha, Lupe is a lyrical messiah tho, shit they both are...

I hate seeing this stupid rapper vs lyricist shit. It seems like when you are a conscious rapper and somewhat positive you get the lyricist label. why the hell would you say pusha is not a lyricist? lupe and pusha both have different content in their music but they are both lyricist. A lyricist does not mean you have to spit conscious or backpack lyrics. Niggas did the same thing with jay and nas, its stupid to me.

LOL

I think Jada vs Push is closer

Who can seriously rap better than lupe?

Is it interesting tho? I don't wanna hear a nigga string together some long ass words and metaphor the shit outta a track about Japanese cartoons and comic books that don't relate to me smh

Yes

I fucks with both heavy

You must haven't heard Lupe' s catalog thoroughly if T&Y was outta range for u

typical anyone who makes comments like the bolded never really listened through Lupe's body of work

They're just repeating what they seen someone else, who also didn't listen to his music ,type in the last Lupe thread.

as just a pure rapper Lupe may be the best ever.

Very few can paint a picture with just words like Lupe

And T ain't nowhere near that.

Lupe a better rapper and overall artist..lupe's downfall is actually what made him who he is, dude stay tryinta do different shit, can't blame an artist for experimenting n trying different shit. Pusha nice but the nigga really has been spitting the same verse for like 10+ years. Lupe can actually stretch your mind if you attempt to keep up, he just need to find a way to not purposely try to lose people, maybe "dumb it down" just enough w/o sacrificing his artistry for the people not tryinta decipher EVERY single bar.

Pusha got the better flow tho

Pusha damn near got the SAME flow on every track.

Lupe flow on "go go gadget", "streets on fire" and " the instrumental " are by far superior to anything Pusha Done Flow wise
