But T.R.O.Y. Was a sample as well.Recently, Lupe released his new record entitled ”Around My Way (Freedom Ain’t Free)” where he sampled Pete Rock’s classic Hip Hop record “”T.R.O.Y. (They Reminisce Over You).” Pete Rock wasn’t happy with the decision. He took it to twitter to express…this one?
Let us not forget how people’s beloved Lupe Wackasso was asked to do a Tribe tribute. And didn’t know the lyrics to the song. And then tried to downplay the importance of Tribe to hip hop to try to make himself feel better about life.
And y’all think Lupe is super lyrical? Nah, he’s not.
All of the bolded. And, if you listen to him close enough, he makes no sense whatsoever. It sounds like he’s trying to be GFK and Rae’, except wack. After that bullshit about Tribe, I refuse to hear 1 bar from dude.
Fuck Pete Rock
Hip Hop is built on sampling old music to create new music. You think The Beatles and countless other artists from the 50s, 60s and 70s want to hear a bunch of niggas talking about murdering people over the music they created decades ago?
Fuck no.
You can’t pick and choose when to support sampling.

Grown women are really out here posting packs of weave on Instagram? With filters?
That half-eaten sammich on your Instagram isn’t art, boo. It may seem like it, but it’s not. It’s just a half-eaten sammich with a filter.
