Is Lupe Fiasco starting to remind anyone else of a bizarro Kanye West? Minus the Celine Dion-level of ridang-donculous superhuman egotism upon which Kanye's constructed his empire, and besides their similar delivery styles and predilection to shades and leather jackets, they've both spent plenty of time recently knee-deep in he-said-they-said-we-said drama -- in Lupe's case we're talking about the Tribe Called Quest/Fiascogate saga from last month; in Kanye's case: Kanye vs. Everybody.
But perhaps here's where the similarities end; while they're both all about the hype and the hate, Lupe's new song, "Superstar," contains the line "Want to believe my own hype but it's too untrue." Think Kanye would ever utter anything against The Kanye Brand?
Check out Lupe's new "Superstar" video, featuring bizarro Bono, Matthew Santos.
