dogg, after listening to this for the last day or two, I'm all out of superlatives to bestow on this masterpiece


i'm sitting here listening to Unforgivable Youth thinking "damn, the raps on this album are just THAT much better than anything I've heard in a long while.. by a good margin too"


if you're a fan of lyricism and MC's taking time to craft meaningful bars and approaching the art of rapping seriously, then this album will be right up your alley... real shyt, I'm in a state of disbelief at some of these damn verses man, wow

Lol....clutching onto the past isn't going to change the fact that the future is capable of surpassing it.....

Nas fans getting all defensive about the F&L II comparison to Stillmatic as if Lupe just dropped Lasers 2 or some shyt.

To me LIG is as good if not better than Stillmatic and a lot of people put F&L II on the same level if not ahead of LIG, yet saying F&L II is better than Stillmatic is completely blasphemous?

Let the Future GOAT cook bytches. Nas fans shouldn't be hating on Lupe and vice versa.

Lupe is PE, Nas and 2pac wrapped as one?

street rap might be falling off

LIG and Stillmatic are clearly better than this album.

Ive heard this album in its entirety 3 times and it's 3.75/5.

I'm a Lupe fan.

:pachaha:

I always saw him as what would happen if Nas and Jay-Z had a son and decided to let books, documentaries, and 2pac raise him.

There's the cool Nas fans like Akademik and JoelB who appreciate this album and see qualities of Lu in their personal GOAT Nasir.

And then there's the insecure Nas fans who feel threatened by Lu's greatness and feel the need to downplay his material because in their mind its blasphemous to compare anyone to Nas.

Ain't nobody fooled even when they say shyt like "and I'm a Lupe fan" :pachaha:

I just hope The GOAT and The GOAT Jr. collab on Part 2.
