Lupe Fiasco speaks with Sway In The Morning, sounding off on Pete Rock and the situation behind his sampling of “T.R.O.Y.” for his new single.
zoom says: Well…guess he got his feelings hurt. Maybe he’ll start making good records. Nah…probably not happening. Big ups to PR!
Mitch 3K says: In all fairness I get a kick out of a sample based producer who has been sued countless times getting so bent out of shape about somebody giving him the same treatment
And I say that as a fan of Pete Rock who always thought Lupe was overrated & boring
But, A spade is a spade
Rizzo says: Good point – I didn’t see much press about the Tom Scott/Pete Rock beef
Da Roundeye says: Lupe is a punk. He fucked this up and he fucked up Tribe’s Hip Hop Honors. This punk don’t know his history. Don’t fuck with classic, you crab.
Da Roundeye says: Mitch you go try to make a beat out of a sample. it ain’t that easy. listen to the original. you gotta have the ear and artistry to make something as smooth as TROY, Looking at the Front Door or Resurrection for example. that shit ain’t easy. so to create from a little snippet and then someone completely bite it. that’s fucked.
