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

[T-K-G]

Ive always said as a rapper lupe is untouchable. Lupe doesnt have a signature flow every song is a myriad of flows. Plus his lyrics are layered.

exactly. this nikka can do anything on a beat im still stuck on that secret squirrel/art booms bar

nikka said it taste likde hotdogs and tear drips, look like pantomime and clear bricks, and smell like shotguns and deer piss

nikka said paint cold pictures like nova scotia landscapes, #nerdgang make mandelbrot sets when we handshake


nikkas gotta prove to me this aint the most lyrical shyt in a LONG ass time i can't even think of anything this lyrically dense to be honest

 

[Busby]

this shyt is :piff::asap: from beginning to end goddamn

.....Haven't listened to the album in it's entirety..but I'm sure that I'm gonna need to have my headphones attached to my head and REALLY listen to it cuz Lupe got them bars that fly the fukk over my head the first time like

I know this came out real early in the year but nikkas betta not forget about this when talking about the best albums of 2015 in December

I'm gonna forget it.

Coolest, tulips, flowers, fall from the towers
Like galls from Galileo to lay low
Ignorance that the world isn't ours, the God
Give them all showers
Toni found the fountain of youth, in the mountain of power
To only find truth in the fountain, drowning in power
Surrounded with dollars
The moon surrounds us like spoons moving chowder
Cut, that's a mis-direct to stir the soul with dis-effect
Names don't last like Mr. X
Unless you dahdahdah dropping bowling balls on the discotheque
With a disco ball hanging 'round your neck
Dance, it's a new year
Every time I open my hands
Thoughts moving circles and the thoughts universal
Yokozuna throwin salt in the circle
Sumo you up off off your turf boy
Tsunami you up off your surfboard
Something Medusa in the go
'Fore Versace turned words into turquoise
Medusa turned coke into stone
With a hand on her thigh, she looked me in the eye and said
Proceed to the next level




I feel bad for Joey Badass. I have his album there and I skimmed it twice. I know its good but I cant stop listening to Lupe album. This is the steak and B4.DA.$$ is dessert. At the moment, I'm still feasting on steak but I know i'll want dessert at some point

Mural.

I never thought I would appreciate someone rapping for 9minutes and not find it over the top boring.

That track is insane.

 

[eerieBell]

This should've been on the album



instead of LitA mixtape

I haven't felt like an idiot listening to someone rap in a long time, but I'm going to have to sit and reflect with this album. No reaching out here tho

But yeah, Lu is back. You know someone is talented when you don't get everything at first but they flowed it so well it makes you want to go back and pick it all up no matter how long it takes. FYI, is the red going over my head? I just heard that the first time like it is him demonstrating a weird mix, nothing more nothing less. Though still dope. .

I have to find time to sit with this all the way through, but my Pats today

Life's not a Dictionary, it's a Thesarus Mural SNOOP DOGG THE BUILDING Nikki Jean on LiL Death Sound so beautiful, don't you agree The Fall interlude beat needed BARZ Prisoner 1 & 2 Dualities BoJangle's tapped in Morose Code Rest of the album's quite jarring, tho And, will be a chore to ever listen to again On TRON, Ab-Soul show Lu how to do this son He said WE don't carry ourselves respectfully But, those nikkas on Chopper, boast about them Harsh Realities However, this dichotomy is expected, from a Uber Pro Black Animaniac Einstein Rapper

 

[JulesWinfield]

I can't get over how good this album is. Lupe delivered. I think my favorite season is Winter. Every song during that part of the album was fantastic. It might be too early to call this a classic but Ii'm giving it 4.5/5 for now. That can easily go to a 5/5 if the replay value holds up. I have a feeling it will.

 

[GoldenGlove]

Replay value is through the roof

 

[Zero]

I'ma have to gon head and cop this brehs

Haven't bought a Lupe album since The Cool

 

[Apex]

Is Lupe a better lyricist than Nas?
