Earlier this week, Lupe Fiasco claimed that Kendrick Lamar's cover for 'All the Stars' was closely similar to his design for his upcoming album, Drogas Wave. Now, the Chicago rapper is sure to stir up more controversy with his thoughts on Kendrick's lyrical abilities.
During a Twitter Q&A, Lupe revealed that he doesn't think Kendrick is a "top-tier lyricist." When a fan asked if he would put Logic over Kendrick, Lupe replied, “I’ll put it to you like this. K. Dot is not a top-tier lyricist to me and my standards when it comes to punchlines and bars. His overall lyrics are good, his stories phenomenal, but punchline entendre lyrically I don’t see it.”
When one follower claimed that "Look Out for Detox" destroyed any Lupe tracks, Fiasco replied, “I’ve never been destroyed. Also the only issue that the world thinks I have with K. Dot and I actually do is that I think his ‘Control’ verse was wack and super overhyped to be a verse claiming you are the best rapper. It was very weird. I was told it was just bait, but still.”
