Lupe Fiasco
J Cole
Big Sean
Saigon
Odd Future

straight up I've never heard these ? brought up in conversations whether I was at school, at the courts, at the barbershop, nowhere. EVER. If it wasn't for the IC, I'd have no idea who Big Sean is. Only reason I know about Odd Future is cuz of people spamming Golfwang on fuccin Twitter like months ago.

Streets are not checking for Lupe or J Cole. That's just what it is. You can't slap that ? in the whip.

    The whole "Nobody listens to them outside of them internet is dumb as hell". If these artist are doing shows obviously somebody is listening to them. Everybody is outside the internet so how can somebody not be listened outside the internet.

    I always heard about Lupe outside of the internet where im at, even when he had kick push some ? i knew ? wit him. im not on no stan ? either. Sadly one rapper i can say that nobody listens to outside of the internet is Big L. Im probably one of his biggest fans, but i can speak about him objectively.

    I live in chicago and never heard a soul bumping lupe fiasco

    Of course they have shows and sell records Nobody in my area bumps him is the point

    Off the net lupe is not discussed on the block in the hood at parties and I dont kick it wit ignorant clowns just a couple not more than 5, the regular people are not interested in that geek

    His fans will support him thats not who we talkin about

    so then who you talking about? people who dont like him? why would they listen to his music if they dont like him?

    ? where I'm at we talk bout guys like Kendrick Lamar, j Cole, krit all the time. Lupe too but more negatively since lasers. We talk bout the mainstream ? too... But we go to more shows involving "Internet only" rappers and talk bout this underground Internet shot just as much.

    The rappers t/s named tour often, so...

    Plus Lupe and Big Sean had some big singles this year

    Only rapper on t/s list i would say is Saigon, although i listen to him heavily...
