Lupe Fiasco vs Kendrick Lamar: Lupe calls out Kendrick for weak bars & punchlines, says K. Dot’s “Control” verse is “Overhyped”
By newhiphopnews – January 7, 2018
Lupe Fiasco & Kendrick Lamar are considered two of hip-hop’s best lyricist so its only natural that one would compare them when speaking about the “top 10 rappers in hip-hop”. We have all dreamed of that dream collaboration between the two and most of the world accepted that we might not ever see that collaboration, but we might get to see them go toe to toe lyrically after news of Lupe taking shots at K. Dot. Lupe was quoted via Twitter responding to a users Tweet saying “his Control verse was wack and super overhyped to be a verse claiming you are the best rapper”. “It Was very weird, I was told it was just bait but still. “I’ll put it to you like this, K. Dot is not a top-tier lyricist to me and my standards when it comes to punch lines and bars.” “his overall lyrics are good, his stories are phenomenal, BUT punchline entendre lyrically I don’t see”.
Lupe Fiasco spoke about the topic via Twitter until earlier this afternoon where he encouraged users to continue discussing rap with him on his subreddit.
