[Einlanzer]

there is a few video game references in his songs. i find it pretty clever.

"picker of the fire flowers, spit hot fire, like dylan on chappelle's skit"

[white shadow]

"picker of the fire flowers, spit hot fire, like dylan on chappelle's skit"



That's one of favorites too.

[Parkreiner]

Last time I checked, most people played SF2 at one point in time.

And references of it have been done to death in rap.

[ChairHome]

He's very pro video game. Look at his first album cover (http://formatmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/lupe_albumc.jpg). Notice the NES game and the DS?

[bboysanstorm]

[Warpticon]

It's about time! I've been looking for a person who played Street Fighter 2 all this time, and I've finally found one! Registering here at Shoryuken.com has finally paid off!! Thanks.

[SaBrE]

del the funky homosapien drops more sf/capcom/general video gaming references than any other good rapper. he even makes a song dedicated to video games (proto culture)

Dels is not mainstream though, the only mainstream coverage I remember him getting was in video games.

"Or, Tha Commision, or a Wu Tang Nigga
Tried to tell ya I can kick it like Lu Kang Nigga
Got that Sub Zero Flow how you want me ma?
Nigga get over here like Scor-pi-on"

[noober]

[Korngo]

i forgot, any here heard of cool kids?

[Sacr3D]

You never know, maybe Lupe posts on SRK and flamebates everyone!

[TS]

I am actually Lupe Fiasco.


...keep it a secret.

[Shade]

I am actually Lupe Fiasco.


...keep it a secret.

I could come to believe that.

[EveryFlowerFlow]

and...





couldn't think of nothing//
S-S-S-STACK DAT CHEESE.

[GeoG2]

He mentions Sheeva from MK in "High Definition".

[Einlanzer]

and...

S-S-S-STACK DAT CHEESE.

he turns down the beat, writers block impedes.


He mentions Sheeva from MK in "High Definition".

i thought he meant Shiva as in the hindu shiva...but i guess it works either way?

[JAMSMASTERP]

Finally i can justify playing sf for all these years. Thank you lupe. ps i really hate zangief.

[Luigi-Bo 87]

I heard Banks played DAT MahvelI bet Biz Markie is dope at ST, I could actually see that for some reason.:rolleyes:

[Murt!]

This thread sucks

[AMB]

yeah del is aight, not hype but alright.

Says the guy who just discovered the SF line 3 months after The Cool was released. Sorry but del is dope. Hieroglyphics, deltron 3030, is all quality.

[Ki Shima]

im pretty positive lupe used to post on Snk-Capcom, he was on my xbox live list back when i used to play 3rd strike

[Son Them All]

there is a few video game references in his songs. i find it pretty clever.

"picker of the fire flowers, spit hot fire, like dylan on chappelle's skit"

thats my fav.



That reminds me of a Joe Budden line about Mario Bros that I always liked

"They ain't super or Luigi or Mario ain't found that power. Plus they couldn't spit fire if they found that flower"

[DaDesiCanadian]

This thread is a fiasco


Fixed. SEE WHAT I DID THERE?! LOLOL!

[Unreallystic]

Gigaton Punch!

Rockness Monstah from Heltah Skeltah has made tons of MK refrences..."strap bombs to your chest like Stryker". also said stuff like "I stretch arms like Dhalsim", "Blow off flesh like Sindel", etc.

Best line still goes to "Warbux" in some comp battle I was listening in on - "I'm down right fierce like hadoken"
- :bluu:

Really don't know why it's a big deal. SF and rap have been synonymous for a while now.

[ringopan]

You do realize that The Cool came out in 2007, and that video was posted in February of 08...so yeah...Fail.

[Manx]

Yeah, Lupe's pro video game culture attitude came out in his earlier work, Like And He Gets The Girl: "I love FInal Fantasy, but I hate first person shooters" and other things he says.

Hieroglyphics, deltron 3030, is all quality.

mmhmm

His wonderful verse has been tainted by your wack ass post. Your level of bitch is off the charts. Instead of posting, keep your hands busy by filling them with dicks and choking on them.

[Nairdas]

sounds familiar... http://youtube.com/watch?v=8uIBRApifR4That Vega cut is sick.

I'm mad he didn't say Ryu's name right though.

Ah, 90's memories.
