Is there any way we can change the emoticon to Lupe Fiasco's face? I completely remember and appreciate exactly why Talib is there now, but hating on him is so 2006, can we keep it up to date? Or is it just too classic to be fucked with the way it is?I just really hate Lupe is what I'm trying to say...

    Kweli will be making terrible music long after Lupe has shuffled out the biz...but here you go:

    Also, Talib actually uttered the phrase, so it's fitting that he always be associated with the graemlin. I'm not against a limited-time/alternate Lupe version, though.

    this might be more useful in terms of actual use on the board.

    Haha, is that in reference to his ATCQ comments from earlier in the year? Nice job.

    Talib had made an outraged blog post because he saw someone on Okayplayer refer to M-1 from Dead Prez's solo album as "doo-doo on a stick". He admitted to not having heard the album, but since he "studies music" he knew that that simply could not be the case. Some months later he announced a contest to design the logo for his new imprint and that was the genesis of the graemlin.

    I agree with the point made above that nobody's going to remember Lupe next year--in fact, most of his stans seem to have forgotten him already--so the relevance of a Lupe graemlin would be fleeting.

    One question, though. Is the apostrophe in "it's" deliberate or accidental? Leaving it in is appropriate in a Strut sort of way.

    oops. But as you said, it shall stay.

    Cool, I'm glad you were able to dig what I meant by that.


    C7, did you do the RZA/Microwave graemlin too?
  • Controller_7Controller_7 4,052 Posts

    He did indeed. Dude's the Terry Gilliam of this merry band of misfits.

    Like I said, I remember the whole backstory, I just figured it was worth hijacking to express my hatred for Lupe... Here's one lolcats style:

    I thought so. Your graemlin game is tight, indeed. The motion adds a whole new level. Props to you, sir.

    this is sort of unrelated, but I was thinking of dude's "the cool" album and somehow ended up with this. I don't know how this can be used,, but who cares.

    Oh shit! I think C7 should get some sort of SS credit for his graemlins that he can cash in for free SS merchandise.

    Him and Quo and any other guys who have done classic graemlins as well. They never fail to brighten my day.
