Album:Lupe Fiasco's The Cool
BBC Radio host Tim Westwood is a jerk. Most of his listeners know it, so I just want to put that out there before you watch this video. He tries to be hip and tries to be down with the hip hop scene, but he's so totally uncool and it comes out every time he opens his mouth. He's like a suburban white dad who wants the local thugs to like him. Nonetheless, somebody pays him a lot of money to do his job and thus he gets a lot of big name stars on his show. His hip hop radio show is probably the biggest in the UK, so anytime a big name star comes over from the US to perform in London, Westwood has them on his show. That's probably why he and Lupe Fiasco were in the studio for this interview. Watch as Westwood tries to make Lupe feel bad about not wearing enough ice and his chain not being thick enuff:He even confuses Lupe for Kanye! Luckily, Lupe is waaaay above all of it. Lupe is so cool under pressure and he never let's Westwood succeed in making him look bad or sound wack. This interview actually proves how down to earth Lupe is and how he cannot be influenced by BS.The local stars can't escape this guy (Westwood), so instead they make fun of him in their music vids. Like this one from Roll Deep:Roll Deep (with Wiley!) - "Shake A Leg":
