The video for Lupe's song, "Dumb It Down" has been released. Watch below: [youtube]q1Et1siZhTk[/youtube] Some people may find the song boring, but I love it. It's such a chill song and the subject matter is so true. For you slow people, this song is about people wanting Lupe Fiasco to start rapping like cliche rappers.

Pretty good song, to be honest, I wouldn't have understood the subject matter until after a like half a dozen listens.
I love it. This is the reason why I love Lupe: he doesn't feel the need to rap about the same old cliches that make me hate general rap. He actually raps about shit that make sense. Whenever he did the verse about rap videos in "Daydreaming", I paused it and had to sit there and just take in how amazing it is to hear a rapper say something like that. Go on Lupe. Fuck what everyone else thinks about your music.
Lupe does everything the best. He puts so much time into his shit and he is probably one of the most talented rappers I know. I can't wait for The Cool to come out.
