    lol an album can still be fantastic and made in 3 days, especially one as short as this.

    Wanting every new album to be the best yet is silly.

    Lupe's discog is great because of the variety, not because he kept 1-upping each subsequent album. There's no clear winner between F&L, TC, T&Y, DW because they're all top tier but different in a ton of ways.

    Just wait for the album to be out.

    I wonder if he recorded a bulk of the album already or it just remained in the idea stage

    mostly idea stage i think. he did perform a song in 09

    I don’t know how people are concerned by the “recorded in 72 hours” thing

    Listening to the singles, you’re telling me if the process was never revealed, you’d be like “this sounds like it was made in an hour”?

    Same’s gonna go for the rest of the album. Only thing we might not get is a huge fleshed out concept, but if the songs don’t feel rushed, does it really matter?

    sounds like some people are going to get their wish and get a more refined concept album they've been hoping for

    also his flow on this track is going to be insane:
    Take this passage from “GHOTI”: “Capture catastrophes like a camera b / Ball like a can of peas, ball like Michael Jackson on anesthes’.”

    sounds like they really liked the production too. well I'm hyped

  • On Faux Nem gon be one of them ones

    "One of the album’s most powerful moments comes on closing track “ON FAUX NEM” when he drops the act entirely and shares his complicated feelings on rap and violence directly to the camera. “I wish they was lying in they raps / How does that transpire? / To be so damned by God, you want your friends to be goddamn liars?” he asks. It could’ve been preachy, but the strain in his voice turns the rhetorical question into a gut punch."

    this gon be one of them ones

    "ball like michael jackson on anesthes"

  • Im so ready for this s***

    Finna get buzzed to it also

    we gotta remember he's probably still scarred from F&L leaking all those years ago lol. doesn't seem like he wanted any details out until he was ready for it. that said it seems like there's been a disconnect between him & the team at 30 tigers?
