He did the entire set, all the music from all the songs he was going to play were played... but he only did that verse.

yea...if they knew lupe wasn't the guy who ordered a case of iHeart Obama t-shirts.....why did they book him.....
Lupe needs to stop being a tool. If he's signed to play music he should play, not force his view on politics down people's throat. This kinda shit is getting annoying
This is great. I love Lupe so much! I just wish I could have been there.
