6 hours? just go to rap genius.com , it will do Half the work for you
gotta admit I'm not a lupe fan but this shit really surprised me.
Aside from the imitations, and rhyme flips, which were crazy, some of Lupe's Punches were strong and really show lupe's craftiness. considering lupe wrote all of It in less than 24 Hours its pretty damn good.
"And my punch bowl's like an ocean
And I lay it on by the ladle"
Lol ^
Where's the fun in that? lol
I'm a hardcore Lupe fan, so I'm glad he came out, and did his thing. Aside from the actual punches themselves (which alone are bodybag material) I love how he switches up the flow to mock all the rappers style that Kendrick uses in his music, and the best part is that he comes off better than the rappers themselves because he's using his level of lyricism. It's almost as if he's breaking it down to let you know that Kendrick is using those, but he can do them even better.
I loved that line. lol The Hitler thing was hard too. My favorite thus far is still that first bar.
"Dear Lord, have mercy on my banana clips give them half, I call it that banana splits, but my halves are really like a banana six."
The banana six is referencing a six shooter, and if you add the other half he mentions that gives you a total of 12. Kendrick called out 11 rappers, but if you include him as well Lupe is basically saying he has a bullet for all of them. That is just plain bananas, pun intended.
