So um... Did Lupe just murder the Rap Game in the first month of 2015?

There's a couple meh songs but it's ok overall, pretty straightforward rap album. I actually have a desire to listen to it more than once unlike Lasers and F&L2. But I thought the same thing about J Cole's new album compared to his previous two as well, so maybe I just don't like them much anymore and won't admit it lol.

Not sure how much it'll stand out when so many other rappers are going to have their albums out this year though.

Interesting how Lupe said he still included tracks he didn't like on the album. Wouldn't be surprised if one of them was Blur My Hands.

Can't wait to see what he does next now that he's off Atlantic records.

Either LupEND with MMG or he retires.
 
I actually like T&Y. Is it a great album? Nah. But there are some good tracks on it.

What irks me though is that you have to take an afternoon off to listen to Mural. And the sample was flipped better on Curren$y's Mary.

Still, quite the step up from Lasers and F&L2. Not that that means anything but eh...

And I thought I was hyperbolic when reacting to GKMC... Album is cool, but not AOTY material in any decent year.

So Tetsuo and Youth is most definitely looking album of the year.

Opinions? Critiques? Is there anything left to look forward to now? I mean... it's just fucking... omg.


Haven't heard it ... but feel the need to point and laugh at calling something '[whatever] of the year', 20 days in


I'd say this is the worst OP of the year, but I know better than to call it so ridiculously early

First listen, I liked T&Y, then I realized the Lupe Cycle.

1. Listen to new Lupe album, think "It's good, reminds me of F&L/The Cool"
2. Listen to F&L/The Cool because the new stuff has hints of the old stuff.
3. Think eh, this new stuff is just alright
 
OP, how are you gonna call something AOTY when we have 11 more months to go? Don't get me wrong, this is a nice album but come on...

Lupe didn't murder anything but the Lupe stan in me is glad that he's still at it and that he can still do it without being too preachy. Production is okay and his lyrics are good. Let the album breathe... It's way too easy to listen to something and get ultra hyped for how it sounds.

Opinions are opinions nonetheless. Glad you enjoyed it.

This can also be applied to a lot of other artists who aren't too consistent. I would probably agree with you though, I wouldn't really put it before or inbetween his first two works.
 
More pseudo intellectualism from the village idiot. Yaaawn fest.

Lord Bronson, Aubrey and K Dot have clear shots at the title. Bronson's album seems like it's going to be one of the most "fun" albums to drop this year.

It's only the first month of the year and we've barely seen any albums come out so far, so it's premature to go out and call something the album of the year...hell, the album of the decade

I love the album but AOTD and King Kendrick didn't drop his shit yet...LMAOLOLOL. Chill with the hyperbole.

Let me help you with the language bro. See, to have "another" amazing something, you first have to have an initial amazing something. Since this is Logic we're talking about, your wordage seemed mad confusing.

his wordplay and lyrics are solid. I haven't heard a lyricist with talent like that in a while. I challenge you to listen to his album more than a quick runthrough... and don't just listen to the beats. You might be suprised
