I listened while reading Rap Genius :yeshrug: :steviej:

just bc im a fan of dwayne doesnt mean thats all i listen too

stop catching feelings over a nikka that doesnt know you EXIST :stopitslime:

:stopitslime::ufdup:, that's the equivalent to reading the script(with meanings) to a movie before watching the movie. stick to wayne.


nikka get off yourself you don't have some supreme knowledge over people because you don't listen to weezy

never said i did fakkit

I actually agree, felt the same way about Nas album also.:manny:

Me too. some songs are, but he actually has a lot of new vibes (cherry wine, bye baby and loco motive an the intro)


i can relate to the free lunch, seeking a chick, breaking up with a girl so it has a lot of replay value.

Lupe taught me a lesson and i was really happy that he made a great album but musically,,,,its lacking like lil jojo :pachaha:

Now I can’t pledge allegiance to your flag
Cause I can’t find no reconciliation with your past
When there was nothing equal for my people in your math
You forced us in the ghetto and then you took our dads
The belly of the beast, these streets are demons’ abs
I’m telling you that setup in them sit-ups is so sad
The system is a slab
Corruption is the swinger sittin’ high ridin’ dirty, drag racin’ into danger
And it’s so clean, pine trees smellin’ good
With work off in the trunk and nikkas in the hood
So I can’t shed blood on any battlefield of yours
I pray the ugly truth comes and shatters your decor
And as it all falls down and tatters on the floor
I shed tears, I don’t know what really matters anymore
Cause I don’t know what really matters anymore

[Hook: Casey Benjamin]
Many things, strangest things you ever seen
Oh, look at how they swing, would you look at how they swing?
Embedded they go, no eyelids gone low
Or gone by sundown, they're dodging 5-0

[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]
Now as I wander through the city goin’ mad
I see the fruits of planting evidence instead of grass
A swindled generation with no patience, full of swag
Man, they so impatient with the stations that they have
As long as they look good when they be doin’ bad
Then the separation from the truth is gettin’ vast, fast
Be a slave at first or free at last
Double-edged choices make a nikka wanna pass
Double-headed voices from the eagle on the staff
The pyramid where eyes will split the spirited in half
Divided over money
Delighted by the dummyin’ down of the importance of crowns we’ll never have
That’s why my sounds and sermons are so full of wrath
Baptize your mind, let your brain take a bath

Swim inside the river get delivered from the craft
Of the witches in this business that be livin’ off your sad
Hatin’ on your happiness you hit ‘em off with laughs
Smile ‘til they surrender, then you kill ‘em off with glad
Hello evil, I’m back

"(X) album is good but it has no replay value" has became the ideal excuse for idiots to hate on albums that they couldn't find something negative to say about its lyrics, production, and overall vibe.

not me :mjpls:

this the first time i said ANYTHING like this.

ROzay GFID was straight :trash:

LIG is VERY GOOD

LUPE IS GREAT but not an album id want to play over and over

Hey shawty, ain’t no future in no gang-bang
And ain’t no manhood in no bang-bang
Ain’t no honor cleanin’ interstates inside a chain-gang
Know some rap nikkas put that shyt inside your mainframe
Pills make you stupid and liquor do the same thing
Raris’ too expensive and they way too hard to maintain

I know you’re sayin’, “Lupe rappin’ ‘bout the same shyt”
Well, that’s ‘cause ain’t shyt changed, bytch
And please don’t excuse my language
Cause I would hate for you to misrepresent
The true expression of my anguish
And by this far I ain’t shocked, upset, or appalled
I’m ashamed, bytch
I can’t listen if you ain’t sayin’ shyt
And recognize all this emptiness is dangerous
Ain’t buildin’ up they confidence, we teachin’ ‘em that they ain’t shyt
If they ain’t got the latest that they saw on someone famous
Mercy of the Lord on this double-edged sword
Instead of askin’ where the hoes is
Maybe maybe we could ask for roses

I still listen to 'Friend of the People' fairly regularly despite its faults, and this is in the same vein. I don't expect to play this one out quickly so long as I can learn to live with some of those awful hooks.

black love, unity, and music
Once you get that history lesson, then study and take the test, you have no urge to revisit the material :manny:

Its great lyrically, great beats, great content, but it lacks from a musical standpoint.

I tried to listen while driving and straight turned that shyt off.

It's a great album, i bought his 1st two, but sorry, this is too preachy.

:what:

nikkas are literally allergic to learning.

I bet you have no problem blasting Rick Ross or Chief Keef on repeat huh. Alot of nikkas are exposing their IQs in this thread.
