Lupe as a person, Kanye as an artist.
What I mean by that is nowadays we need to suffer not only the reasons why someone is a celebrity (the movies they make, the music they make, ect.), but also their personality and ideosyncracies as well. Half the time they are not doing what they should be: shutting up and creating something.
Kanye makes good music, but he is an annoying, loud moron. Whereas Lupe is a much better presence, but his music isn't as good.
I would like to offer a third contender: Kid Cudi.
Kid Cudi is a creative up and comer and has had some minor problems with his celebrity (attacking people in his audience, ect.), and makes good music (I'd rather listen to him over Lupe or Kanye). Whaddaya think?
