Lupe Fiasco is known for voicing his opinion and for speaking his mind.

Now, he might be appearing on the show of another opinionated man who just called the rapper a “pinhead.”

In a recent interview with the CBS show “What’s Trending”, the rapper made some controversial comments about President Obama, and was invited to appear on the O’Reilly Factor by the man who the show is named after.

“My fight against terrorism, to me, the biggest terrorist is Obama in the United States of America,” the Chicago-born rapper said during the interview.

He continued: “For me, I’m trying to fight the terrorism that’s causing the other forms of terrorism. You know the root cause of terrorists is the stuff the U.S. government allows to happen. The foreign policies that we have in place in different countries that inspire people to become terrorists.”

According to Bill O’Reilly, Fiasco declined to join O’Reilly for a discussion to defend his remarks that he made about the president.

O’Reilly gave his own opinion as to why Fiasco would decline an invitation, saying, “possibly because he could not possibly defend that remark, which makes him a pinhead.”

Fiasco, however, responded via Twitter—as do most celebrities nowadays—saying he was never invited to O’Reilly’s show for a discussion.

“Whoa! I got invited to the O’reilly factor and turned it down???” the rapper tweeted. “Thats news to me…would NEVER turn down the opp to push billys buttons!”

After calling the rapper a “pinhead” O’Reilly did complement “The Show Goes On” artist saying it would be “tremendous” to have the name Lupe Fiasco, so his own show could be called “The Fiasco Factor.”

Fiasco is known to speak his mind in his music and recently released a song called “Words I Never Said” where he comments on the war on terror.

“I really think the war on terror is a bunch of bull****.  Just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets,” he raps.  “How much money does it take to really make a full clip 9/11 building 7 did they really pull it.  Uhh, And a bunch of other cover ups.”

He continues: “Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist.  Gaza strip was getting bombed, Obama didn’t say ****.  That’s why I ain’t vote for him.”
