Lupe Fiasco - DROGAS WAVE (Discussion Thread)
- Thread starter Dylmatic
- Start date
Listen I’ve got too many thoughts running through my head, I’m going to have to log off
He sounds like prime Nas on the beginning of Mural jr.. his voice the cadence sounds like prime Nas, I’m surprised nobody has pointed that out
Typically by album 5 people burn out.. life happens.. voices change.. creativity lacks
Entertainer as in what though? Lupe Live shows are fire!
And great post! Mind if i post this on my Twitter?
GREAT TO SEE THE GAWD IS STILL GOING HARD AFTER HE LOST HIS PASSION.
IM LISTENING ON A MOBILE SPEAKER RIGHT NOW
SO I CANT REALLY ASBORB THE QUALITY AT THE MOMENT.
A FEW TRACKS ALREADY CAUGHT MY ATTENTION THOUGH.
Brehs its absurd how wavy Down is. fukk. Up to Haillie Sallis is perfection. Perfection
He really took it back to some Nas rhyming in the park shyt
Post it on Twitter
He doesn’t have the gimmick.. the high energy charisma..
Lupe is a street nikka that doesn’t lead or project street nikka
No maifso alter ego
Not a pimp
Not a Mack
Not your typical conscious back packer
And it’s isnt a bad thing..
Bro i think you should really sit and think of it out and make a thread, podcast idk whatever cause people really dont realize how GREAT lupe is dude is getting better and better.
Food and liquor and the cool was Ss1 through Ss3
Enemy of the state was ss2
Tetsuo and youth was Ultra Instinct Lupe
Pharoah Height was super saiyan blue
This is Ultra Instinct Lupe but more easily digested for some
Didn't enjoy this at all off first listen, Drogas Light was better to me.
ThaEruditious
She luv it over here like Gold Watch.
I could cry...
"Fish is my friends and the whales is my homies, Octopuses my people, the Shrimp they all know me. Sharks is my nikkas, the dolphins is with us, the crabs is my comrades. The sea horse be holding us down. Jelly Fish they just rolling around. Lobsters is cool, they are not food - they're part of the crew."
Not only was this one of my favorite hooks, but just imagining the Long Chains(name of the reincarnated African sea spectres that are the focus of the first half) squaded up with an army of sharks, whales and jelly fish ready to tear these wicked ass cacs apart
This dude is pushing hip hop into uncharted waters. Pun intended.
Also this this nikka need to marry Nicki Jean if he hasn't already. She laces him with his best hooks and she's beautiful.
Edit: I think when the dust settles this will be his best project. Tetsuo & Youth is amazing and will probably always be my favorite, but objectively speaking this is just as good + an extra layer of story telling AND he somehow managed to take his rapping from a 10/10 to a 11/10
Hope y'all realize now that Drogas Light was just a throw away to get off Atlantic. T&Y and DW is the real him.
Even tho Drogas Light Lupe got verses scattered around that will make some nikkas y'all say are the best out look silly
