Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor II: The Great American Rap Album

Gave the album several listens now. It really is the "Great American Rap Album".

Still not out here.

Gonna check every day till it comes out.

Depends on what kind of literature. If he would release a book about politics, history, or social issues; I would read it.

He gives the impression he knows what he's talking about, but he doesn't really. From his music I'd get the impression he knows his shit, then when he's on a talk show or discussing something he looks clueless.

Mos Def and Talib are a different class, nonetheless I am still suspicious on what they preach

I think he does know what he is talking about, he just isn't all that articulate when he is on TV. He isn't as educated and articulate as Immortal Technique.

Haven't listened to these yet, but Lupe is awesome.

Saw him live a few years ago, and it was a great show.

Just listened to the Bitch Bad song...and wow. Incredible.

I need to listen to this album.

If he's not like that, what's to say it's not his publicist putting in stuff like "Obama's the biggest terrorist of them all" to get reactions?

If I asked him something like "Why did Hitler invade Russia" he'd probably say "Because he was power hungry" or something like that

He just seems naive when he talks about stuff, but that's my opinion

Loving this album more and more. Still think The Cool is his best, but not far off.

Still waiting for it to hit stores here.

Man, you are missing out on so much. Just buy it online already.

Around My Way has to be my favourite song so far.

I want my cd.




but..... I finally got it my friend surprised me by getting it as an early birthday present. Apparently she had a hook up so i got it a day early.


anyway, great album. Not as good as the first one but i gotta keep listening. I also don't get why it the booklet it comes with is all in black. Such a waste of ink. Fuck your message lupe, save the trees.

Meh.
