Amazing song.

Alex Da Kid's usual production can't even be noticed because you're so attached to Lupe's words.

I can't believe he said some of the things he did to be honest.

It's clear Lasers is going to be different Lupe considering he's got two albums out this year, and this is his last with Atlantic so he can afford to do whatever he wants before going back to the usual Lupe.

I'd love a remix to this song with the likes of Chuck D, Immortal Technique, Paris or on the other scale Ice Cube, Mos Def, Prodigy and such.

I love this song. Poppy-esque beat, catchy hook, pretty simple lyrics, but with an amazing message. And it's a single. This will definitely reach a lot of people, clearly what Lupe intended. Hopefully this can get some good amount of radio play. And hopefully this will open the door for discussions and hopefully this will shed some light on ignorant people. Lupe is brilliant.

It doesn't have as much hit potential as The Show Goes On, but it's still a good song with a great message. There are several great lines to think about. I personally like "I’m locked inside a cell in me, I know that there’s a jail in you." :worship: That's a great line to me. Like everyone's holding back a part of themselves and hiding the truth.

A remix with Chuck or Tech would be dope as hell. I'm not sure why people are complaining so much about this song. I like it, not his most impressively technically but with what he's saying in the track, it doesn't matter that much.

Everything is great except the one part about Rush and Glenn being racists...That made him sound really ignorant. But he did great, Skylar absolutely ripped the chorus, and Alex da Kid was....well Alex da Kid. Most of his beats sound the same.

This has upped my hype for Lasers that much more.

And Skylar made me fall in love again :wub:

Cause the shit I hear is crazy
But your either getting lazy or you don't believe in you no more
Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form
Cant make a decision you keep questioning yourself
Second guessing and its almost like your begging for my help

Great song, I like it. Alex's best beat yet, but the drums sound almost exactly like I Need A Doctor's...he's gonna have to use some more variety if he wants to stay relevant this year

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

Alex > Bangledash or however it's spelled, IMO. I like I Need A Doctor and this song's beats. LTWYL's not too bad. It's just they're becoming repetitive to me, sorry :'(
