Lupe doesn’t bite his tongue for no one; not even our President. In an interview with CBS News’ What’s Trending, the “Words I Never Said” MC spoke on Obama, terrorism and why he doesn’t vote.
“In my fight against terrorism, to me, the biggest terrorist is Obama in the United States of America. For me, I’m trying to fight the terrorism that’s actually causing the other forms of terrorism. The root cause of the terrorism is the stuff that you as a government allow to happen and the foreign policies that we have in place in different countries that inspire people to become terrorists. And it’s easy for us because it’s really just some oil, which we can really get on our own. I don’t vote. I don’t get involved in the political process because it’s meaningless, to be honest. I’m a real big believer if I’m gonna vouch for someone, then I’m gonna stand behind everything that they do. So politicians aren’t gonna do that because I don’t want you to bomb some village in the middle of nowhere.”

Fuck Harvey Levin and anybody that loves his celebrity news website. First you prematurely pronounce the impending death of Lil Wayne (Weezy Forgives. We Don't.) and then you try to link the horrific actions of one of the Boston Marathon culprits to our culture? "DEAD BOMBING SUSPECT: HEAVY INTO HIP HOP" You don't say? It's 2013 and most kids are into rap music. We've been penetrated pop culture, you cock suckers. "What's interesting... hip-hop lyrics are notoriously violent and often degrading to women." So our music is at fault in this tragedy? Let's be clear the only bombs my culture cosigns is DJ Funkmaster Flex's sound effects. Thirty Mile Zone is prone to post anything to get traffic. Fuck dude and his coffee cup. Get you a Rap Radar cup and drink with us in the winner's circle.
Oh Miguel. Leg droppin your fans? You ain't Hulk Hogan and that wasn't part of the program. That's no way to treat the adoring ladies, brother.
lupe what u smokin cuzz we need some of dat in ohio
the government would be the terrorist then, don’t blame 1 man. if you dont vote thats also good for you too. lupe talks to much.
LUPE IS A THE MAN FUCK YALL !!!
Lupe is the biggest idiot in music.
What? You sound dumb… You make all these American dollars that is ALL blood money but you won’t vote and you think Obama and the United States is a terrorist? THEN MOVE!!! take yo ass to fuckin Iraq where their “government” is 20,000 X worse than ours…. You don’t have to live here nigga… Ive been to different countries and The United States is the best… Lupe you don’t even vote so your fucking opinion doesn’t even matter.
TRYING TOO HARD TO MAKE A POINT
LUPE you are an idiot!
He’s foolish and has a simplitic thought process.
The people FOLKS(Glenn Beck, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity) at FOX NEWS are like “LUPE is making our job easy for us dumb bastard”.
STFU Lupe
His views on terrorism are obviously his Muslim bias…i can knock him for his pov.
But to take the stand to not vote is retarded…you think all the blacks who died for their right to vote were 100% behind those candidates? No, but the little steps they took benefited your right to not be hung today for simply sharing your political view on that couch.
nothing that came out of Lupe’s mouth sounded intelligent. FNF down.
Well Lupe u do have the freedom to move out of America if u feel that butt-hurt about it
What terrorism is he fighting? Dude youre a fucking rapper! Make rhymes and fucking dance! You couldn’t even fight your label! #REALTALK That wack ass fucking album, you on some bootleg B.O.B. shit. This nigga makes me sick. Somebody tell him to go listen to, The Cool. Fucking slave!
Lost points with that one lupe even if Obana would stop the war soon as he became president you still have people that hate america. way before he was president the policies were put in place. even if he change them to benefit other countries they still gonna hate america.
ok now im jst starting to think he just wants some attenion… he wasnt happy when osama was killed and now he saying this…. is this guy the real terrorist…??
dude shud jst concentrate on his music..
Lupe…..
Your floating in the “Mainstream” now….
Chill out alil. Lol, You think Pac Death was Random? Lol, Yeah ok…. They’ll get a Sniper outside your house and Pop you. And say your ass fell down some steps . Lol, Fall back.
Its true enough tho that our foreign policy leads to nothing but more violence and terrorism. Why do u think all these developing countries hate us so much? Its because what we call “foreign aid” is usually just barely-disguised bribe money that we send to dictators all over the world. Of course the people hate us- wouldnt you hate the people that are funding the death of your country?
We need to back the fuck up and take care of things within our borders first. Our foreign aid policy should be to put the money in the hands of the American people first, and then let “we the people” make the determination about what moves us enough to donate. Earthquakes in India? Worth it. A new slush fund for the Saudi royal family? Fuck that.
Lupe thinks he’s doing the right thing but speaking out against the government but by saying that “Obama is the biggest terrorist” he’s speaking in the same terms as Glenn Beck, Hannity, and the other extreme right people who are trying to demonize and use racism to make Obama seem “other” and “anti-Ameridan”.
It’s one thing to criticize the administration. Or it’s policies. Or the government, in general. But to call Obama a terrorist only adds fuel to the fire for those people who would actually call for far worse foreign policy measures.
CO-SIGN! FUCK OBAMA! THE WORST BLACK PRESIDENT EVER! LMFAO!
YOU CAN HATE ME NOW!
a lot of idiots on this site… smh.
The american congress is the biggest terrorist organisation … Yeh I said it p.s. I’m a Christian
How you complain and call the first black president a terriorist, and you DONT PARTICIPATE IN THE PROCESS! You don’t even get involved with the dialogue! You go on shows to talk about your album and call the first black president a terrorist! In this current political and racial climate, where people are looking for an excuse to kill this man. He has children dog, watch your fucking mouth! If you don’t like him that’s fine, its politics thats cool but don’t assassinate the first black presidents character by putting that label on him. You never got on tv and called Bush a terrorist, fucking clown. This nigga got me tight Im not buying his music anymore cuz, somebody get this nigga a bowl soup.
Rap radar should boycott this nigga dead serious don’t play his shit, fuck this bitch nigga. At least until he further explains himself.
So his shitty music won’t give him any lime light so he has to do desperate shit like this to get some? Nigga please. If you are so butt hurt of america go and crawl back to AFRICA.
SMH damn what happened here? This is like the one place in the country where people feel like the government is actually working for them?
^ u are taking this way too seriously I don’t think lupe’s opinion will influence people
Lupe dont get no cool points from me. Crab-barrel shit at its finest right here. Lupe needs to speak to his MUSLIM brothers that are killing folks all over this world.
Sounds like to the “you played yourself” section you go to with this Lupe…
^exactly. Cosign @citizen… That’s how I know y’all live in the suburbs. Don’t ANYONE in my hood argue about no fuckin politics bcuz we never see anything beneficial from shit anyway.
This aint ordinary bruh! – MoneyMusic410.Com
ITS HIS VIEWS ON THE SUBJECT MATTER WE CAN CALL HIM NAMES AND PUT IS OPINION DOWN BUT WE ALL CAN GIVE OUR OWN OPINION WHEN ITS ALL SAID AND DONE THAT’S HOW HE FEELS…..BUT OBAMA CANT BE BLAMED FOR ALL THAT…BUT THE GOVERNMENT DON’T TELL US TRUTH
That was a stupid statement!
Lupe is such an idiot. Why does anyone listen to this guy? He made a crappy song about Skateboarding and somehow the hip hop community accepts him as intellectual? Fuck outta here.
SMH @ Lupe. I agree with most of the comments here. He’s acting like our government is the worse one ever. Negro please. And to just pinpoint one person, who just happens to be everyone’s favorite scapegoat, and call him a terrorist? He needs to go over to Libya or Congo and make statements like that about their dictators and see what happens to him. Yeah you’re safe here so you’re talking out the side of your neck.
@Renegade- It definitely will influence people. It will influence impressionable young adults (mostly black ones) to sit on their buts during the next election when their votes are so crucial.
Yeah our government isn’t the most amazing thing, and corruption, egotism, self-righteous bullcockcocka, greed, and relgious extremism is running rampant. But tell me one government that doesn’t have at least some of this. I have freedom of speech to say this and not get hunted down. I don’t have to worry about being raped constantly, I can wear whatever I want (pretty much), and worship whoever I want.
Who the fuck is Billy?!
This is such a stupid thing to say Lupe.Please focus on making a good album.Lasers was a big ass joke. I’m from Chicago and you’re starting to become a clown.
this whole going politcal raps are getting corny. Lupe is a waste of talent for now till he makes up for lasers
Fuck Billy!
The root cause of terrorism is the evil in the heart of man. We have always terrorized each other. Africans terrorizing africans, Jews terrorizing jews, whites terrorizing blacks. Each apparatus, government, religious, industry has been used by evil people to terrorize others who are not in power. That’s not to say that they are all equivalent. The record companies that pump degenerate music into struggling black communities are obviously not equivalent to the agribusinesses that engineer seeds that don’t germinate, and these agribusiness are not equivalent to the fascists regimes which enslave their populace and everyone within the reach of their power.
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, and help to uplift your brothers/sisters.
FUCK OBAMA. LUPE IS RIGHT. YALL NIGGAS CANT SEE PAST HIS SKIN. HE THE SAME AS ANY OTHER LYIN ASS PRESIDENT. STILL IN MULTIPLE WARS. ECONOMY IN THE TOILET. GAS GOING UP. UNEMPLOYMENT. BAILOUTS FOR THE RICHEST MOTHERFUCKERS. AND THIS NIGGA EATING CHILI DOGS N TOSSING OUT THE FIRST PITCH BALL GAMES AND GOIN ON VACATION. FUCK OBAMA
LUPE SPEAKS THE TRUTH!

FUCK U LUPE!!! OBAMA IS THE BIGGEST PRESIDENT IN THE GAME SHUT UP!!
LUPE is a try hard. It pisses me off how entitled he thinks he is to backlash the president and give a opinion about everything… Lupe you sold out your new CD was terrible. At least my middle school sister likes it :) fucking pop music these days
Lupe is being an ignorant fool, making U.S Dollars performing horrible mainstream junk with Trey Songz on the MTV Movie Awards, it is not just oil, he thinks he is looking so much into the humanity but he is spreading ignorant views of a war-torn nation, America or most certainly Obama does not ‘inspire people to become terrorists’, jeeez.

Lupe I’m a fan of your music but not of everything you say. You dont like America then you can geit out (South Park Voice)
@vincent
1. The Iraq war’s ending.
2. He got Bin Laden. We leaving Afghanistan, but slowly and safely otherwise that shit’ll turn into a fucking bloodbath.
3. Gas prices going up is caused by Wall Street speculators and not even supply/demand. The President has ZERO influence over that.
4. Economy/Unemployment is still not great but there’s been job growth every month since he took office. And you can’t force private companies to hire people. All you can do is try to create conditons to encourage it. Hence bailout. We should have had a bigger stimulus bill, but that wouldn’t have passed through Congress cause of the Republicans..
5. Also, the bailout saved the car industry and hundreds of thousands of jobs. As for the banks, it prevented a huge catastrophe, but I guess motherfuckers will never get credit for shit that they prevented…
Bottom line. Shit ain’t perfect but a president, ANY PRESIDENT, can’t fix everything. There’s too much shit out of their hands. And calling him a terrorist is as stupid as those racist motherfuckers calling him Hitler and shit.
And let the man take a fucking vacation every once in awhile. You want a President who never sleeps? Never has any fun?
Lupe is a moron.
Most of the time I co sign Lupe but how do I even defend this. He always sounds stupid when it come s to polictics. Didn’t he say last year that he agrees with Bill O’riely. Yes I Obama needs to step up in alot of areas like Jobs and poverty. But didn’t he just kill the biggest terriost the country has known. Obama is still cleaning up Bush fuck up. I was one of Obama’s biggest supporters during his election but I don’t know why people was thinking he was the second coming of Jesus or something. Michael Moore will be the man to ever make a real CHANGE. BARACK OBAMA DOES NOT CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE lmfao
