Enjoy your life and loved ones.
Why did it take me so long to listen to this full album? 
I heard like 2 songs and never revisited the full project. 
The saxophone on Body of Work.
Madonna. 
The strings present throughout the album.
Obviously the lyrics. The vocals(Lupe's harmonizing is underrated too) That group track, memorable hooks throughout
Never too late to get on good music, played myself by taking so long with this one but

“So you starting at the end, that’s the part where you begin
I skip the bullshyt so we can start it where we win
Yeah, spoiler alert
I can hear you all saying “boy you’re a jerk”
But it’s cool though, know we gotta rule yo
Get in, then we win and do it all again, ho”

Play the album Front to back (downwards) it's a religious themed album
fukk you talking about breh?
1. ‘Summer’
2. ‘Mural’
3. ‘Blur My Hands’
5. ‘Fall’
6. ‘Prisoner 1 & 2′
7. ‘Body Of Work’
8. ‘Little Death’
9. ‘No Scratches’
10. ‘Winter’
11. ‘Chopper’
12. ‘Deliver’
13. ‘Madonna (And Other Mothers In The Hood)’
14. ‘Adoration Of The Magi’
15. ‘They.Resurrect.Over.New’
16. ‘Spring’
But peep the lyrics
Yeah, lots of options, now up is down, two player
Now A is jump and B is punch
You seein' somethin' that weren't there
To find friendliness in a nemesis, it's a old test
3 buttons, see somethin'
That's emphasis on Genesis - Adorition Of The Magi
So if Up is Down on the Tracklist and you play the album back to front (Upwards)
You listen to album like a videogame with Mural being the endboss (lyrically)
(Peep how T.R.O.N. Starts with a videogame intro)

I don't usually subscribe to these theories but I'ma try this one out next time
I had Lu sign my album upside down because of this theory

The album works both ways, so enjoy it however you feel or skip around to tracks you like.
Just enjoy it.

I think one of the biggest clues is a bit lost in the digital age, when you can just stream albums without having to look at the centered tracklist on the physical. “I prefer my pictures in word form” The tracklist looks like an upside-down cross, as if to say you need to flip it right-side up to see the righteous path.

Lu the type to want you to think for yourself, so he's done all but explicitly confirm it. Certainly meticulous enough to want to pull it off in the first place.
Also, just found this:
