G.O.O.D. Music affiliate Lupe Fiasco has taken aim at hip-hop artist Kid Cudi by calling him out at a recent concert.
Footage of Lupe going at Kid during a freestyle surfaced online Monday (November 30).
Last January, Lupe Fiasco talked about having problems with Cudder over a Twitter incident.
“I told my fans, ‘Yo, if you want a Lupe verse, I’ll write it for you for $500. It’ll be yours; you can’t put it on Twitter — it’s yours. Don’t leak the sh*t or do whatever; it’s yours.’ And Cudi went on Twitter and was like, ‘Yo, Lupe, what you gonna do with that money?’ I’m like, ‘N*gga, it’s $500, the f*ck you talking about?’ I’m thinking he joking. I’m like, ‘Bro, what you mean?’ … He stopped tweeting at me – then I caught wind of all these Cudi fans like, ‘F*ck Lupe.’ I look at what this n*gga wrote and he’s like ‘Lupe’s trying to swindle his fans, I would never do my fans like that'” (“Sway In The Morning”)
Lupe fast-forwarded to now and offered Cudder a chance to squash their problem before things potentially turned uglier.
“I [told my friend], ‘Yo, gimme this b*tch a** n*gga Cudi’s number, if I see him, I’m knockin’ him the f*ck out. ‘Cause I wanna get to the bottom of what the f*ck you talkin’ about because it’s me. The same n*gga you went in Complex and was like, one of the only n*ggas who reached out to me genuinely and had love for me was Lupe. But now I’m some f*ckin’ thief? Now I can’t find you? Nobody knows where you are? And then you come back with talking about how n*ggas should act and operate in the business? N*gga shut the f*ck up ’cause I’ve been trying to find you and couldn’t find you for six months. … Cudi, let’s settle this before I f*ck you up!” (“Sway In The Morning”)
Earlier the same month, Cudi threw himself into a Twitter feud involving Lupe and hip-hop artist Azealia Banks.
Dear black artists, dont talk down on the black community like you are Gods gift to niggaz everywhere.

Lupe kept the fire going with remarks geared at Cudder.
Niggaz be invalid because they don't really mean what they say. I hate niggaz that are disloyal at they core then flex like they Gandhi FOH

So basically a pillow fight is gonna break out when he sees Cudi…
I used to like Lupe a lot when he first came out but honestly his actions and so on the last few years or so make him seem just corny. I know he is outspoken and so on but the humble dude who dropped Food N Liquor and was full of knowledge at the time just seems to be missing nowadays. He needs to stick to focusing on good records instead of saying certain things.
exactly
brutal cold blooded foot on the neck style! impressed strong with the force young jedi is
not really understanding this… i know lupe has had indirect ties to shit …but he always been non aggressive not sure how to take it… i think he got the power to not just make threats but follow through….but im not sure why it has come to this….he has always been about unity…but when i think he has never been scared to say how it is to the letter…the only rapper that called out a popular loved leader
