I am a big fan and supporter of hard work, thats the basic principle behind #MYOL. Rappers like J.Cole, Kendrick Lamar, Big K.R.I.T. and more have big followings early in their careers but before the "underground", real Hip Hop with a message had such a major internet following Lupe Fiasco lead the pack in conscious Hip Hop. With his first hit "Kick, Push"Lupe made an analogy between Hip Hop and a skateboard which was a genius way to stay true to his roots of being an MC and crossing over with a single. Since then Lupe has been in a constant fight with record labels and himself to stay true to being an MC and not selling out. Lupe has paid his dues and they have paid off, salute to the most-enlightened MC in the game from Chi-Town!
