Have you guys heard of Wale? Hate to draw comparisons, but he's almost like the next Lupe. Heavily streetwear influenced, similar flow, similar swag...dude is going to be real big.
Check out this video 'freestyle' about sneakers...Lot of nice callouts.

lol Wale is nothing compared to Lupe lyrically man....and im FROM the metro area and in all honesty all Wale has going for him is rapping over go-go, and that will ONLY make you hot in DC ya know?

Just like rapping over Crunk will ONLY make you hot in the South? Please. Hip-hop nowadays is all about pimping out musical scenes and bringing them to the mainstream. If anything, Wale has a better chance of blowing because he raps over go-go, and does it well.

But do you hear go-go anywhere else besides the bowash area? No, crunk is heard all over so you cant really compare the two like that.

Are you forreal? Where was Crunk before it blew up? Limited to a small area as well.

go-go has ONLY been in DC for so long and its truely self sustained - i guess well see but Wale has been "the next big thing" forever now, itll fade like Blyss
think about why rappers cant come outta the D.C. area - locally theyre outshadowed by go-go and then outside of DC no one respects em

I concur, it seems DC is a death trap for Emcees, the only person with any real fame in the hip hop world is DJ P-Cutta of the Street Wars mixtapes and he barely ever reps DC like that (all his stuff is new york based)
