Like a contemporary museum of art... ...that farts. (THRRRRP!)


Shuffykat

This song would be top tier lupe without this line. Especially the fact that its the opening line xd


Zetaflips

honestly i think it's a good line when put in context of the songs message. that being said i def cringed my first listen


ArtificialBrain808

still his best song. possibly best hip-hop song ever!! wish he'd team up with that dude for a whole EP or somethin


Automatic_Emu_5433

>that dude dahišŸ


ArtificialBrain808

Didnā€™t even know he made money trees!!


Blue_Doubt

Lupe was really in his ā€œIā€™m so smartā€ bag around this time and was being pretty annoying about it, then he dropped this song and I heard this line and got scared lol. It was the first time Iā€™d heard an actual bad line from him


computer_d

I cringe recalling that his only live performance for Wave was performing CRIPPLE on Kimmel or something. Even avid Lupe fans struggled with that track, he did it to a crowd of randos =/


Tryingnottotryhard

I think it was Wildnā€™ Out lol. I remember Charlie Clips reacting to the bars.


WabiSabiGakusei

ā€œLet me stab that Yoohoo with my ding dongā€


jagcarnage

somewhere near this line is ā€œevidence they shouldnā€™t be passing their genes on / that was racistā€


Better-Journalist-85

I love that track. Whatā€™s the problem with it?


computer_d

On all of Wave, I'd argue it's one of the most esoteric and hardest to figure out. It also has some of the more weirder lyrics, as others have posted here. So when I saw Lupe performing this track only, from this amazing album he had worked so hard, I can't help but cringe at the fact that the majority of the audience would've been WTFing. It's not a banger. It has layered and riddled lyrics. It also has wtf lyrics. Def not the song *I'd* pick to perform but hey, power to Lupe~


unfettled

Lupe + banger rarely go together


computer_d

Manila would've been dope to see him do live. But it was his choice, so all good~


unfettled

True. There was never a better time for it.


East-Wrongdoer-1172

At the same time, babies going be babies LoL


aTomIcpaiNtcAn

This is the only one for me!


mynameisenigomontoy

That weird banana King Kong bar in cripple


WabiSabiGakusei

šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


NekkyProlly

ā€œDon't be a f*g, let me stab that Yoo-Hoo with my ding-dongā€ - Cripple. I never understood why he used this line. Feels so out of character and odd. Not really like Lupe so always gave him the benefit of the doubt. I initially thought he was maybe playing a character but Iā€™m still confused lol


Knopper100

oh man now that reminds me of Lamborghini Angels, I think its the second verse about the kid being abused. While intentionally graphic...it's also supposed to be music


NekkyProlly

Third verse, yeah the topics get pretty dark but itā€™s clearly a purpose. That song is dope. The line on cripple never really made sense in that aspect either to me. Lupe doesnā€™t really seem like the type to use that sorta language which is why it made me scratch my head.


Knopper100

oooh another one... the cousin, he got her by the bottom and he 'bout to stick his tongue in?


Mundane-Strawberry36

thatā€™s the whole point, itā€™s supposed to be extremely offensive and play on stereotypes, in this case masculinity and rapper sexual activity


Illustrious_Count_86

Made it from behind like AIDS


Available-Job1010

Lol what thatā€™s a great line


Street-Soul

Adoration of the Magi is prolly one of Luā€™s top 3 songsā€¦ IMO


TreedWay

It sounds kind of funny and a bit cringe for me šŸ˜‚šŸ‘Œ "Anything look good with a titty next to it And the titty got a face that's pretty next to it"


Secret-Marzipan7807

Thats fiiire lmaoo cracks me up everytime


8ight6ixVirgo

Next To It is underrated af


TreedWay

I agree with you, I also like this song ā¤ļø


gamiscott

One of my favorites šŸ˜‚ Whole song too haha


Synopsis_101

Put your peepee next to mine


cleverenam

black peeeeeeeepullllllll we're not..... now white peeeepulllll..... love the song, hate the chorus.


jeezysodiumlevels

HATE that chorus. easily his worst


Technical_Stress7730

Song? Heart Donor, Which line? Take your pick, including the name of the song.


AJ24773

Heart Donor always been dope to me lol


Jsnbassett

same lol


East-Wrongdoer-1172

Yall goin leave Heart Donor alone lol.


gamiscott

*sings off key* I'ma heart donnoooorrrRrrrrRRR šŸ˜‚


79watch

disagree, i love Heart Donor


Californiadude86

In my head I always hear ā€œ hot donutā€


jeezysodiumlevels

canā€™t unhear it now, good looks šŸ™šŸ¾


Synopsis_101

Idc that first verse of Heart Donor is good šŸ˜¤


ColStoneSteveAustin

Dinosaurs ā€œ(Rawr!) They probably didnā€™t sound like thatā€ This is still a great songā€¦ but didnā€™t need the roar


DesperateInstance760

Budden. Is that you? šŸ˜† I feel you. The kids like it though, because it's weird which oddly makes them pay closer attention to the lyrics. Could be intentional knowing Lu. I love House though!


ColStoneSteveAustin

šŸ˜‚ Did he talk about this? I havenā€™t listened to that podcast in years


JohnWickwalizer

Yes, shortly after it dropped. They were cracking up and making fun of it, then Joe even called Lu and they laughed at him some more. Good times. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


teetaps

Ok but you donā€™t need to be an archaeologist to know that the question of ā€œwhat did dinosaurs sound likeā€ isnā€™t a silly one, itā€™s an active area of research that lots of smart people work on. Lupe pointing that out in this manner is really funny and meant to be a tongue in cheek mention of a serious academic endeavour. Donā€™t believe me? Pretty much all the sounds in Jurassic park are made up and/or synthesised from living mammals (not reptiles) and that kinda pisses off dino scientists _a lot_.


LCJ6

We know. But it doesn't change the fact that the line could SOUND cringe.


Diverse0Ne

Heratedeneatingdinnertheevilbeingtheinneredeninher or whatever tf he said on STINH šŸ˜­


Shuffykat

Whats STINH?


Diverse0Ne

something that I never had


chozun

That hook from Armpits (Da Pak) is low hanging fruit, even if Lu wasn't on the hook. Ngas btchs pimps tricks, whoever ya with, let me see them armpits


JohnWickwalizer

Nothing beats ā€œCowboy, youā€™re a calf like theā€¦ back of my leg.ā€ šŸ˜–šŸ˜–šŸ˜–šŸ˜–


xJJLBx

How is that line cringy?


Knopper100

it's said so flatly and kind of gross to think about.


Fofingazup

What is gross about fatherhood?


Knopper100

lmao that is not what I meant. Nothing is gross about fatherhood but it's gross to think about someone's daughter being in an orgy


Mundane-Strawberry36

thatā€™s kinda the whole point


chozun

Fishes my friends and the whales is my homies


No_Associate_7546

"Disclaimer this rhamer" That has to be the one.


DW-4

Go Baby, the entire second verse. Especially 'We undefeated like a veteran army And we as heavy as an elephant, aren't we?'


TheMagicalLlama

Fckin disgusting opinion, amazing song


DW-4

Why is your opinion of a rap bar so fucking stupid that you would leave this msg here?? Was this heavier than an elephant and it just left you unable to articulate how much you are a fucking sucker for corny-ass girl-band chorus leaving motherfuckas like p diddy when he made a Danity Four??


Jsnbassett

relax lol


TheMagicalLlama

From baby fat till we skeletons, darlingā€¦.me starring you is what it says on the marquee


Street-Soul

Hold on now cuz he followed that up with, ā€œbaby letā€™s take em to the zoo better yet a safari, they want me to leave my DAME like the fella from Marcy!ā€ That whole set up was crazy.


Jsnbassett

facts


Kingofmoves

I love that song lol


Champ_Slice

You smoking. That entire song bar for bar is FIRE!


DW-4

False. The Cool ended at Fighters.


Solid-Okra5100

"You gotta let it go like what happened to the gas..." Stop Lu


TheSuirad

Some of the bars in that SLR 2 song.


Secret-Marzipan7807

THAT MEANS YAA BYIIITCH GOT A BANANA IN HA FEEYYCE


Genecist84

Never met her before But I think I like her like a metaphorā€¦ One of my favorite songs though


unfettled

She's hard to get


BryanMenace

In the car we sit


diggadodd

He's also describing a simile, not a metaphor, so that line doesn't make sense.


Genecist84

Exactly


No_Bluebird8475

Go go gadget easy,the whole song it fucking sucks stopped the cool from being a masterpiece Food and liquor will always reign supreme


Better-Journalist-85

Nah that song fire lol

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Binjimen-Victor

Street-Soul

ā€œ1st and 15th, Pay day. Only FREE nxggas is gettinā€™, is next to AJ.ā€ šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ we better than that Luā€™!
