An interview with The Age, Lupe Fiasco talks about his level of success and celebrity and how he doesn’t believe success is defined by attaining “Jay-Z status”. Lupe says,

“I don’t want to be Jay-Z and be worth $400 million and perform on every awards show. It’s getting in touch with somebody who needs to improve their self-esteem. As opposed to driving a Bentley and putting some chains on.”

Ohhh shots! I see what he’s saying and I actually feel a warm spot in my heart hearing that (maybe I’m having a mild heart attack) but being the cynic I am I think only people who say they don’t want the success Jay-Z has, can’t and never will have that level of success so they write it off.
