Lupe Fiasco - Hurt Me Soul REACTION!! (first time hearing)

Lupe Fiasco - Hurt Me Soul REACTION!! (first time hearing). I had to make a separate video to this track because it truly blew me away. The full album reaction is up now on Patreon (link below) and will hit here in a few weeks. But this one had to hit the channel today.

I dont throw the word masterpiece around lightly but this song is definitely one

[@rajiel26]

YES!!!!!

[@MeekoBear808]

best lupe song IMO. 3rd verse is one of hiphops greatest verses

[@Fluffipandaz]

Finally I have found people that understand good music. 🔥

[@michaelotis223]

one of the best songs that captures the angst of the Bush regime

[@seb_thoms]

True

[@KingBenny]

The last time he says "and it hurts me soul" hits hard

[@TheFilmSpace1]

Yup

[@dfree1442]

Indeed! 😔

[@dragojlo0278]

In the last verse where he raps about all the worlds ills he names 24 world ills and ends the verse with "sittin on 24 inch wheels"

[@dadorage1695]

Like in touch the sky where he says "I represent the first, now let me end my verse right where the horns are", and the horns are on the 15th bar...Lupe's label is 1st and 15th.

[@mspaceselectrical3652]

dadorage Isn’t “I represent the first” the 15th bar? He only spits 16 bars and the horn bar is the last one

[@PK14X]

Lupe is the greatest lyricist ever. Fight me.

[@fernandoreyes680]

He’s on my top 3 lyricists ever. Maybe top 2. Just a damn genius.

[@Portthefirst]

When it comes to braggadocio, K Rino is untouchable. But aside that, Lupe is a better lyricist with more lyrical substance. Lupe is def top 2 for those who have analyzed him in depth. Goat Lupe

[@CyberChip_]

With a statement like that, you're looking for war. And when you get that war, holla at me, ill have your back!

[@rebeccagomez3636]

I don’t get it, Jon seemed disappointed on it, even if he was talking” good things about it just look at him he seems he’s having a hard time listening to it, the same face he did when he reacted to 69 album, like idk

I can't wait for him to experience Drogas...

[@atonshabazz-bey911]

Do not react to that album, it's too dense to react to

[@mstefanidis1841]

Drogas wave takes like 10 listens to understand. Its too dense For a first reaction

[@mspaceselectrical3652]

He need to do Lupe Fiasco’s The Cool next really. It’s probably the best mix of Lupe as a lyricist whilst still being easy to digest on your first listen.

[@abel6297]

@@mstefanidis1841 You may be right, he needs a little info on some of the tracks like "Alan forever" and "Stack that Cheese" to understand the genius of Lupe

Lupe Fiasco? Now we're talking!

[@user-xz4lc1co2b]

go back to Murals. it’s filled with meaning, it’s not just wordplay

[@emmerin]

in fact, Jon, just react to the entire Tetsuo & Youth Album. It's amazing.

[@cornela1]

This song is filled with meaning too? In fact it has a more concise theme than Mural has. The message of this song is great

[@user-xz4lc1co2b]

@@cornela1 i’m saying that murals is filled with meaning despite ppl saying it’s just wordplay. i ain’t referring to Hurt Me Soul

[@link_8159]

Favorite artist of all time. A lot of times, Lupe fans want people to listen to Mural first, but you gotta build up to that. Go through his music then come to that. F&L, The Cool, Tetsuo & Youth, and Drogas Wave are all masterful. He has a ton of mixtapes and loosies too, but those 4 albums, in order, will show you how amazing his writing is.

[@samiela1144]

HOUSE EP is also fantastic, as well as food and liquor 2(his most underappreciated album)

[@frizzyrascal1493]

@@samiela1144 F&L II is so good.

[@kevincroft5246]

My favorite hip hop song of all time. This song is basically perfect Hip Hop. 100% This has so much substance. Murals is loose wordplay representing stages in Lupe's life and what was happening. Both insane though, Seeing Lupe do Murals live was insane.

[@kevincroft5246]

You should check out some more of Big Krits tracks. Try Big Krit - Small as a Giant. The album was just rereleased and it sounds great.

[@danteisnotkoold4611]

Same. When he rapped Mural word for word I was in awe. It made me want to learn the whole song verbatim.

[@dxviation]

Lupe Fiasco will never be replaced as my favorite rapper of all time. No matter how many artists come out that I enjoy more, he will always hold a special place. He deserves all his flowers.

[@DarkElixir-bx4id]

As a young black man, when I heard this song at 22, for the VERY first time, made me cry, been a fan EVER since. Only 3 other artists music has done that to me ( J. Cole -Friday Night Lights & Forest Hills Drive, Big Krit - Return of 4eva, Isiah Rashad - Cilvia Demo)

[@Agent1245_]

Lupe is just.... magnificent

[@jean522]

React to Wav Files

A reaction to tetsuo and youth is needed

one of the greatest songs of all time. love to see it get love

[@MrKiingpin]

Knew you would love Lupe, my favourite rapper of all time.

[@jayo8506]

Lupe IS the greatest lyricist of all time. He doesn’t brag or throw it in your face though, which is why some have the luxury of keeping his name out the conversation. But in the words of King Push.. “If you know, you know”.

[@danteisnotkoold4611]

We need more Lupe on the channel! He's definitely one of the GOATs.

[@janelles.4774]

This album was so masterfully put together its sickening.

[@farrellcityking1]

I’ve said it more times than I can remember, but pound for pound Lupe is the greatest rapper of alltime. It’s that simple. And when it comes to writing ability, nobody in music can match his pen. Truthfully, he should only be mentioned with the great authors.

[@Luca-bz5wc]

Well Jon, this song probably has more substance than Mural, but Mural is the greatest hip hop song ever to me. At least from a skill stand point, that song is THE masterpiece, it's so clever it blows my mind everytime, it doesn't even seem conceived by a human

[@allmightypixel9770]

Luoe Fiasco hurt me soul is undeniable classic. My go to when it comes telling people about why he's amazing artist.

[@u7angbe]

This what Hiphop is Period!!! The art of rhyming with a message and substance. I respect the respect you showing to the craft brother. Love and peace from Nepal

Not a patron yet but can’t wait to hear the album reaction. You trip off wordplay and lyricism so I know you’ll love Lupe.

[@chrismalinowski654]

The reaction is great, one of Jon’s best reactions

[@marcustaylor4466]

Truly appreciate you for doing this one. Lupe is very underappreciated and this is one of his greatest. It's so deep. Hope this gets a million views!

I think you’d be disappointed with a Drogas review. It’s so dense and complex which means a first reaction is going to miss 90% of the bars/meaning

[@justinbonilla6961]

@@mspaceselectrical3652 right. It took me a few months to even appreciate the album as a whole. First listen, I disregarded a lot of the content because it was overwhelmingly deep and complex. Now its one of my favorite projects from him, and im STILL finding bars and double meanings i didnt catch the first time. No way Jon can appreciate the album properly on one listen.

[@keenannash2947]

He already heard Mural... some idiots recommended it as the FIRST listen to Lupe when he was doing Rock Reacts. They had just started getting into rap at the time so naturally they couldbt get their head around the song and hated it (and never reacted to Lupe again on that channel). I'm glad he went back, this album (and song) are much better intros to Lupe imi.

[@kelseygiddings1119]

He honestly needs to do the lyrics video breakdown

[@madeyeatreides4055]

@@keenannash2947 I don't think they hated it, it was just a little much at the time. The few lines they did get they showed appreciation for and acknowledged that most of it was probably just going over their heads.
