This new song really goes hard, I love it. Everybody snaps, I even love the simplicity of the production. I recieved a lot of e-mails about this song just today. I am really interested to see who’s project this goes on, Lupe Fiasco’s, or Kanye’s new album. To me, it just seems right that the 3 of them would get on a track together. I am really eager to get the production credits on this song as well. It sounds like it could possible be one of Pharrell’s productions, but I’m not exactly sure. Either way, I’m digging this song. It’s a good look for the three of them.

im myspacin it as we speak =]
These ar my boys puttin it down like their supposed to do…feelin the track and of course feelin my boo Skateboard P.
i love it. its off da can’t tell me nuttin mixtape. can’t wait to hear kanye’s new album.
OH SHIT! THEY GOT DUDE FROM RADIOHEAD ON THIS TRACK! I DON’T THINK YOU GUYS KNOW HOW DOPE THAT IS! WHAT A FUCKING CALLABO!
THIS SONG IS FREAKIN FABULOUS!!! I fell in love after 24 seconds. The singer sounds almost like Adam Levine, the lead singer for Maroon 5. It’s really simple but its so different from what is currently popular. I’m loving the feel of it and definitely the sound of Lupe’s voice. Like Compton said, it is just something about him…loves it. I could’ve done without Pharrell. I wouldn’t have minded maybe Common or Mos cuz I don’t know what P was talking about but it was useless and didn’t really fit with my new boo Lupe and Kanye. Thanks Brian!!
I agree with 29..but I had this song already CL!..lol.. I love it! it’s real simple I guess people whoa re fans of these artist would truly accept the song
@ Mulatto: That’s who that is? What’s his name? I like his voice a lot
I dig this track so much. Yall about a week late on this one, but its cool. Its hands down the best song off the Can’t Tell Me Nothing Mix Tape. Like a few people said, the song completely samples “eraser” by that dude from Radiohead. Its not as much of a collabo as it is just jacking the chorus from the original, but still this ish is off the chain.
As far as Kanye being overrated, say what you will about his flow, the nigga knows how to put togehter a good album. (Even his mixtape is fye)That’s more than I can say about most of these nursery rhyme rappers out today-ahem, Curtis.
….I am a fan of all three artists…however, I wasn’t really feeling this joint the first time I played it…but I dig it now, I really had to listen to the words and feel what they were saying before I decided to trash it(which a lot of folks don’t do before they decide to comment)…cool points on the beat they chose to ride…To those who don’t think Lupe is unique, oh gosh, ya mad?…..go cop a listen to his mixtapes, don’t base his talent on kick, push, && I gotcha…..boy got flows…but opinions are just that…go CRS (aren’t they doing a full studio album?)
Damn it I can’t hear the song! Damn gov’t blocked the audio on this computer! But I’m pretty sure the song is HOT! These three together is just crazy!
@twisted babydoll
pharrel- anyone who has turned out so many hot beats for many artists of different genres can’t be that overrated. i still bump “she loves to move”
kanye- now he’s overrated but his first album was great
lupe- he’s not like mos and common. they come from diff worlds. he’s a skateboarder, he watches anime, has an obsession with robots. he’s very different from them in the topics he chooses to rhyme about. i couldn’t see either common or mos writing “kick push” so yes, he’s unique in the rap world
MY PEOPLE MY PEOPLE. JUST SO EVERYONE KNOWS. THIS SONG IS NOT PRODUCED BY KANYE OR PHARELL OR ANY HIP HOP PRODUCER FOR THAT MATTER. HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF THE GROUP RADIOHEAD? ANYWAY, THEIR FRONT MAN IS NAMED THOM YORKE. HE’S A SOULFUL ASS WHITE DUDE. THE BEAT THEY ARE RAPPING OVER IS FROM HIS SOLO ALBUM THAT CAME OUT LAST SUMMER CALLED “THE ERASER”. THE NAME OF THE SONG IS ALSO CALLED “THE ERASER” THAT IS THOM YORKE SINGING ON THE HOOK. COP THAT ALBUM! I’M MAD, I WAS MAKING A MIXTAPE SAMPLING ALL THE SONGS ON HIS TRACK. I HAVE BEEN PUTTING IT OFF AND NOW THESE DUDES ALREADY DID IT!!!! AHHHHHH!!! PLEASE CHECK OUT MY MYSPACE PAGE!!!!! CIRKA!!!!!!!!!
That song is heavily sampled from Thom York Radiohead singer from his solo CD. the song is “Eraser” They basically just rapping on top of it.
LOVE the three of them together but no sure about the soung…
This song is FIRE.. Lyrically on point even for Pharrell and I am the biggest NERD fan who hated In My Mind. The Group is putting out an album from what I hear and there group is called CRS(Child Rebel Soldier or Chi Runs Shit. When i first heard this song last friday i swear to Reeboks that I had a tear in my eye for the rebirth of hip hop. It made me happy to hear this nice music from the three of them
and for twistedbabydoll… Common and Lupe are 2 different people. Common raps about whats in the hood. Mos Def raps are more social than anything. Lupe is unique because he is a wordsmith. Common nor Mos arent really wordsmiths, they are story tellers.
Due to the fact, the beat is wack. It prohibited me from listening to the lyrics.
This beat belongs to Thom Yorke, the lead singer from Radiohead? Heard of them? He created this himself and the fellas here just rap on top of it. And no, none of this takes away from how great this song is. I posted about this not too long ago:
http://lastnightadjsavemy...-man-get-off-my-case.html
There is something about Lupe that I can’t put my finger on but its so very SEXY! I don’t think it’s the skateboarding. I mean Pharell skateboards but he’s not as attractive to me as Lupe. Lupe can get it, and I’m not one of those chicks who get all excited about male superstars. I rarely think they’re hot, but lupe is too fine. He’s beautiful lol. The song is cool I guess. Lupe, lupe…..:)
MEAT: Why you gotta put the girl on blast like that? The girl can’t help having small breasts.
Is it that sad that people only listen to song to hear the beat? Come on… people who just listen to the beat dont listen to real music and neglect the true meaning of creating art such as music
hmmm, this song is gonna have to grow on me
Heard it, Loved it! ^_^
this song is so SICK it’s infectious!! LOVE IT
the simplicity is it’s genious.
had to stop and think a sec (didnt read all the previous comments) but this isnt a product of hiphop. just a Thom Yorke sample but love the effort anyway! i looked it up and this song is slated to be released on Lupe’s upcoming album “The Cool” scheduled to be released on Oct. 31, 2007.
i like it
i think it will go on Kanyes album
even though this would really help Lupe, I think Kanye gonna take it
Pharell’s album doesnt look like it’s ever coming out
this song is a nice night cap
i just peeped how Pharrell stole Nas’ rhyme pattern
MEAT

I knew it was it thom yorke! I was wonderin like who sang this, I know it’s him, thanks for the clarifying. I like this song a lot tho…very peaceful something to listen to before i hit the sack
WTF..? THAT SHIT WAS HORRIBLE AND KANYE NEED TO EITHER
BUTTON UP THAT ROBE OR SHAVE THEM CHEST HAIRS CUZ THAT SHIT AINT CUTE!…..LUPE FIASCO?…..PHARELL U SLACKIN AND STARTING TO BE GUILTY BY ASSOCIATION..(3 SNAPZ)
Sounds like this is a chris martin form coldplay production
A bit reminiscent of Jay-Z’s beach chair
I like it. Its a nice song!
aH, it’s okay
Lupe Is so damn cute!!! His skin is so silky lol
Pharrell Is a doll, he never ages
Kanye Next!!!!!!!!!
they’re just rapping over thom yorke’s “eraser” track. i like their version, but thom makes it pop….not lupe/kanye/pharrell. thom yorke’s album is nuts and i’ve been screaming that since it dropped last year. now that kanye and pharrell like it, maybe he’ll get some attention from the urban crowd, but to give kanye/lupe/pharrell props for this track is just ridiculous….they just lifted the track from thom. they should’ve at least gave him a shout so people would know they didn’t make the track, but they didn’t….what do we call that nowadays..oh yeah, “sampling” is the politically correct word to use. checkout radiohead and see how nice thom yorke flips the vocals….dope schitt. fin.
enjoy this here, cuz this isn’t going on anyone’s album. thom yorke is notoriously stingy with the rights to his music. he doesn’t even allow it on itunes. and like the last dude said, everyone giving these dudes props like they did anything special besides rapping over a preexisting track.
well i like it …….but im into stuff like this…….and i cant get enough of pharrell so sexi (stop hatin)!!!!!
Oh this is a sample of Thom Yorke (of Radiohead fame)his song “Eraser” the title track off his solo disk.
that beat is from the song “the eraser” by thom yorke.
wow.
lol, I like how everyone states the original song name and singer, glad that yall no something besides hip-hop I’m surprised by the amount of people who know him and his band.
Omg, is that Thom York from Radiohead singing the hook on this song?
if u dont kno what pharrell talkin bout//he talkin bout the shootin in VA and da asian guy and shit dats happenin around da world//
@71:
Mos Def is doing a skateboard campaign in the United Arab Emirates for the children. And you don’t know how many underground rappers have fixations with anime such as MF Doom, artists featured on Throw Stones Chrome Children (which none of you fuckers probably never heard about). And Andre 3000 (mainstream) portrays anime inspired themes in his class of 3000 cartoon. Thr problem there’s not many young people that support underground rap because it’s not catchy, trendy, flashy and glamorous. I hate glamour. Glamour is poison. Natural Beauty rules.
Some people are just more eclectic than others. The more eclectic, the more one researches the better things will be! =)
I don’t simple support Lupe because he puts me to sleep. But he’s cute, I’ll give him that. Kanye — I wanna fucking kill him! And Pharrell–should just stay behind the scenes.
Then again, this is CL….
#17… I totally AGREE!!! LMAO…
Let me just first say I’ve been listenin to this song since i first heard on the kanye mixtape. I think the sh*t is hot on several levels. It’s definitely one of those songs you gotta listen to more than once cause it’s hot(it’s freakin lupe, kanye, pharrell, and thom yorke,people. individually, you may not like one or any of them for that matter. But, collectively, they made something that is undeniably beautiful.) Also, they are really speaking some heavy stuff. You gotta really sit and listen to what they have to say and not just the OKA “child rebel soldiers” . A lot of these artists are sending a message out to the people through their songs and it seems like no one is listening and no one really cares and that’s why we’re in the state that we’re now. It’s dangerous out here…. peace
