He seems old skool. I like that.

 

[Kaleb]

Is he fairly new? This is the kinda hip hop I can enjoy.

[RockSP]

His album is pretty good.

 

[Kaleb]

yeah he seems pretty popular, I just cant understand why he isnt that popular

 

[RockSP]

I just cant understand why he isnt that popular

He's not dumbed down enough for your average consumer. The majority of kids aren't into lyrics anymore. All they want is a memorable repetitive hook and some random cuss words.

 

[Kaleb]

bloody kids

Lupe is the s***. Plain and simple. I heard him back on the Fort Minor mixtape ("Spraypaint and Ink Pens") and I was hooked. A ridiculously slick flow, and just incredibly creative lyrically (just check out "The Cool" off of Food & Liquor). Easily one of the best albums of 2006, period.

 

[Ghostrider84]

nah..... don't like it that much

 

[Kaleb]

jeez for a moment there I thought this thread was going to be blessed with the grace of hooters pimp

Lupe rules

 

[Victor Von Doom]

This CD is the real. Probably the most original album that I've heard since '99. Black on Both sides. Probably the best lyrical album that I've heard in a hot minute too. He just needs to diversify the sounds of his tracks just a bit more and he's got the truth. He doesn't dumd his **** down. This kid is smarter than most.

 

[Cmill216]

He just needs to diversify the sounds of his tracks just a bit more and he's got the truth.

Agreed here. Better production on this album would've been a major boost. I think Soundtrakk did a solid job, but Lupe needs to bring out the big guns for the sophomore effort. People whose production can match the gravitas of his lyrics. Seriously, the dude verbalizes a story about a gangsta zombie. Just...

 

[Kaleb]

I realised now, that he reminds me of Steve Urkel . oh yeah and I bought the album today.

 

[Assassin]

I only have a free mix tape called Chi Town Gurrerra or something like that. cant find it either
