Here's the thing with Lupe, and I'ma preface this by stating that I'm a fan, not a huge fan, but his first two albums still get brought out every so often. Hasn't he threatened to retire before? Wasn't there a petition out to get his album out? I don't know, seems like dude's heart ain't in it and if it ain't, well, maybe it's time to try something else. I heard something about him writing a book because literature was his first love, or something? Then go do that. If your heart ain't in it, do something else.

Food & liquor is a marginal album. Never ever ever in life do I wake and think, "i really need to hear Lupe". It just doesn't happen. I can't imagine those who do. Creepy shyt.

He aint retiring

exactly! his ho ass is just being a drama queen again. fukk lupe :pacspit:, and i used to be a big fan but it seems like he embarrasses himself at least once a month. people say Nas took L's, but nobody has directly created as many L's for themselves as Lou.

This project, developed in light of Lupe Fiasco announcing his retirement, was launched on Thursday and has amassed hundreds of signatures so far.

You may or may not agree with all the sentiments in the letter, but if you have love and appreciation for the artist, the man, the creativity and the positivity he brings, sign it.

Dude has been in a really dark place. With the recent bashing of the bytch Bad music video, the immense violence in his home city of Chicago, the Chief Keef "beef", and a bunch of other shyt...it's a lot for one dude to take on. For him to even consider retirement shows where his head is at right now....so dude could use a lil pick me up. Yeah, he whines a little too much, and he should ignore some things, but the guy's heart is always in the right place and a huge void will be left when he really does retire. Dude cares so fukking much man....and he's such a ill fukking emcee/artist.

And yeah, Food & Liquor II part 1 is still dropping in 16 days.

Thanks.
The OP and everyone who dapped this post need to reevaluate their lives. I'm so happy this Fiasco guy isn't my favorite rapper anymore. "He so fukking much man." :to:

:hmm:

aye I like Lupe and think he's one of the better artist today but you can't be seriours with that letter.. :dead: fukking clowns "and then Lupe and then Lupe pissed gold all through the sky and then he made unicorns appear out of thin air. He's the bestest rapper ever.":childplease: Damn that was some dumbass shyt.

Not signing a petition cause if he wants to quit let him quit. I wouldn't want Lupe to resent his fans.

Update with the letter - 954 signatures(shout out to the Miami area code), word is Lupe's mothher and close friends all got hold of it and apparently an extremely popular hip hop site is working on a special project involving it.

Amazing shyt. Big ups to all those here who supported. Never in a million years thought it'd get this big.
