I really looked forward to this album after I heard the singles and one of the leaked tracks. Thought it was easily going to be one of the illest albums of the year but sadly this is let down by what Lupe Fiasco always has been against: Poor lyrics.
There are some great moments on the album though. “Words I Never Said” is a very deep song that applies to a lot of people out there (glad something like that will get a lot of airplay, thanks Lupe). “State Run Radio” is another quite cool track with an ironic and interesting message while “All Black Everything” is a nice political journey. “Never Forget You” is nice feel good track but maybe lacks some mind blowing overall message.
I’ve seen the album’s production get a lot of critisicm but I think it is nice. Really uplifting and modern sound… Maybe two bad beats but the rest of it is cool imo.
If it wasn’t for Lupe’s recent comments, I probably would have bought it just to get those few tracks I like and to support him (he shows glimpses of great lyricism after all) but after reading what was going on at the label, I feel I would support the industry rather than the actual artist.
wack 2/5 at best
LOL@Dad and Rynmur hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. I gave up on him after his first album and that wack album cover. He got skills but he's weird.
