You have to remember this album has primarily been done for 2 years (created during lasers sessions), from what I understand is he has a bigger role on part 2

It's going to take time to fully digest this food (for thought). :noah:

Intricate and complex lyrics, that's all I ever ask of you Lupe, because you were the second coming, and this prove you still are. :to::lawd:

what about good songs? :dead:

this is what i meant last night by calling this another mediocre rappity rap ass album....sure he's rapping efficiently enough on it, but who gives a shyt when it sounds awful

After the first listen:

-The first 8 tracks are as strong a sequence as there's been on an album this year. People should probably check it out just for that alone.
-The latter 8 tracks really don't grab me as much. 9-11 are superfluous, overly poppy and kill the flow and thematic content of the album completely. Hell, from the standpoint of a sonic thematic, "Brave Heart" doesn't quite fit either. The lyrics are the lyrics (It's a Lupe album, so the worse you'll get is the blatantly obvious and preachy, and your tolerance for that is a matter of taste), but the songs as a whole don't really fit.
-The last 4 songs were merely good to me, nothing really that great, but I also haven't gotten into the lyrics like that either.
-Listening to this, which is slightly better than Life is Good, made me realize that I kind of overrated that album, as neither of these are really on my "Best of" radar.

Not even close to better than The Cool; probably about as good or a little better than Food and Liquor off the first listen, though the first 8 tracks are better than just about anything on F & L.

What makes any of that different than what nas em jay PAC biggie etc stans say, you on the other hand is trying to convince every one of why lupe fiasco is trash with a fukking fredo avi :dead:

Why are you aruging that, when that has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with your original point, you ho'd up and cried about how stans get called out and said the folk on the opposite end are even more radical..... when I just gave you stan examples to refute your point. nikka are you really this slow?

What fredo got to do with anything? stop tryna deflect from that bullshyt ass post.

Only songs i dont like are how dare you, battle scars and that TROY remake (which i can listen to here and there) Another great album from Lupe. Ill have to replace battle scars with double burger with cheese and replace how dare you with what would jesus do.
