Almost done with Tetsuo & Youth.

The album is levels above Lasers, but this doesn't shock me. There are some sonically interesting tracks on the album, and Lupe is experimenting a lot with his delivery which I like.

What I dislike is the length of the album: three 8+ minute tracks and 16 tracks feels like unconcentrated overdose. I would have a much more compact album with more focus.

That being said, there are some bangers on this and some of the hooks/bridges are memorable. This is a good direction for him. Probably need to give this more listens, but yeah: not terrible, not amazing, but pretty decent.

A good start into 2015.

This seems like the general conscious of the album (well, besides the guy who thinks it's the album of the decade). I guess if you liked Lupe's other material, you'll probably like this one was well, it's just not going to gain any fans

I'm gonna write up a little mini review on Tetsuo later. I'm pretty sure it's his last Atlantic album too, no?

Ab Soul shitted up another track! The last song on the album no less.

i don't think the ranking matters too much, i enjoy all of his albums. each has their own strengths and weaknesses but none of them are bad imo.
 
Seriously tho, can you imagine being born in Winnepeg?

Probably mad Eskimo's and Igloo's up there. Prolly ride Moose too.
