Lupe Fiasco - Tetsuo & Youth (Discussion thread)*Stream*

[MusicConsulting]

I know it isn't getting the respect and acclaim but the violinist on Tetsuo deserves everything she has coming to her.

The reason why it sounds different and stands out than different projects is partly this girl "Rosy Timms" she is on all the interludes & "Dots & Lines"

Guy Sebastian killed that Blur My Hand hook would've made a killer lead single

Off top the artists that have used the Mural sample:

Curren$y - Mary
Wiz - Visions
Jeezy - Beautiful (I think)
MF Doom - One Beer

There's probably others but its such a dope sample almost everyone does it justice.

Ine beer isnt the same exact sample but a different sample from the same artist

link anyone??


I'll exchange it for a + rep.

I think people should know one thing who are being critical on this album, Lupe said this was his most well rounded album he has presented thus far. He didn't say "a classic" he was honest, "I can listen to it mostly satisfied and I would only change a few things about it" THAT is what he said.

And one last thing about this project why you should hand it to Lupe, coli fam.

This album was forced out by anonymous, Lupe wasn't finalized w/ it, he kept turning in drafts and Atlantic kept REJECTING it.

Now you tell me how many artists could be that determined to keep going even though your label…. AND let's get this STRAIGHT, the only reason Atlantic kept rejecting it is because they wanted to bring more input to this project to chip off more percentage of Lupe's revenues.

Now this is key, critics to Lu……….

HE.HAS.YET.TO.GIVE.YOU.A.FULL.PROJECT.THAT.HASNT.BEEN.INTERFERED WITH.

Wait until the next fully unchained Lupe sounds like. But don't give me that "I want Food & Liquor Lu" You are in the minority on this one, Tetsuo & Youth is a unsung favorite even if people still don't want to give him credit. I bet you he made Nas and Jay scared listening to it on headphones. I appreciate that you respect his work, but I think he is more critical of his work than you are, that's how I see it. And one last thing, no one gives a fukk how much it sold, Last Poets didn't sell that much & yet they are iconic trailblazing poet revolutionaries.

I know it isn't getting the respect and acclaim but the violinist on Tetsuo deserves everything she has coming to her.

So is it Lupe posting on his twitter right now or not? He was saying he quit it and it was some PR guy that was posting while they where promoting it.

But does it still count like promotion right now?

Lupe only posts on IG. Twitter is run by his A&R.
