Lupe Fiasco - The Cool discussion topic

[Slimm]

so what yall think? Well, some songs are really really great, some are less then food and liquor.. Still love most of lupes stuff tho. havent listened enough to rate it.

[soperman005]

i havent heard the first album but this one was dope. not as good as kanye, but dope

[Hadez]

^^^ maybe its just me but Lupe's shit beats anything Kanye's got

anyway,
i thought the album was great. most the beats gave it a darker tone which made it really enjoyable to me. lyrics are top notch. alot of the tracks stand out to me (i.e. "Dumb It Down", "Little Weapon", Gotta Eat", etc...), but even the ones that don't are pretty dope. definately gonna be buyin this one

[BaZZ]

^ yea I agree any Lupe stuff beats Kanye's.

Anyways, the album's amazing; prolly the best album of the year for me. The lyrics are very deep, and the album has a lot of different styles, and the beats are good and diverse too. When I first listened to it it sounded kinda weird but after 2-3 listens I was completely taken by it.

Btw if you listen to Gotta Eat carefully you'll notice the whole song revolves around a hamburger (he gives it another personality to make it be like a normal human. Very smart.

Best tracks:

Hip-Hop Saved My Life
Intruder Alert
Gotta Eat
Little Weapon
Put You On Game
Streets On Fire
Superstar
The Coolest
Gold Watch
Dumb It Down

Some are really good, and some are not, and that's too bad, because I think Lupe could make good tracks only why not putting out those less good tracks on mixtape?
over-all I like the album though

[mdeuce]

there's something about the production that sounds... off
like i've heard most of these tracks before


ie: first part of intruder alert sounds like chingy's 'pullin me back'

[BaZZ]

^ for ome reason I like that track a lot
At first I found it annoying but now I just vibe to it..

[pawel]

I also used to dislike the track, but it's really dope as fuck

[DariusTPF]

by the way Gold Watch was horrible

omg i know!!!

i always skip that track sooo fucking annoying


i think he put it on there cuz his friend in jail wanted it on there

the sample makes it suck, IMO
why the fuck is it there?

[DariusTPF]

i skip it EVERY time

so do I, I've listened to the track completely only once. now I just skip as soon as I can
