really looking forward to this but i will not dl. waiting till the 18th to buy it.
good album so far. refreshing with all that bullshit coming out.
I thought it was a very slight step below Food & Liquor, but still a great album... a lot of heat on here
his experimentations with his flow worked out well
The production was solid throughout for the most part, the only weak spots being Hi-Definition and Gold Watch
But really the only real problems I have with this album were that the guest rappers outside of Gemini/Gemstones sucked and the hooks that Lupe performed himself also sucked
I'll post an expanded review later, but for now -
1) Baba Says Cool for Thought - *
2) Free Chilly - *

Yeah, I love Gold Watch... (Anybody know the sample???) And the Snoop collab aint bad either...Originally Posted by Dusk
Played the album a couple times and it gets better with each listen... On a whole it might be better than the RETAIL version of his first... It's NOT better than the Food and Liquor bootleg tho...
Put You On Game and Dumb It Down are probably the two best songs of the album (maybe of the year)... The only track I've been skipping a lot is Intruder Alert... The whole vibe and mood of the song just puts me to sleep... Besides that, it's a damn good sophomore release... Might be one of the best albums of a busy year in hiphop...
I feel like i heard that sample before on cypress hill's first album, at least that looped gibberish part.

I got this today and am really enjoying it.
Smoked a Joint and listened to it blew me away..specially Streets on Fire when i was Blazed as.Smoke or even dont smoke and listen to it..
Dope
Damn sweet album fo sho.
She thinks her brown body has no glory.
If she could dance naked, under palm trees.
And see her image in the river, she would know. But there are no palm trees, on the street. "The Holocaust / Warcloud"
Classic for sure.
My evidence, my own testament, written on wood
Twelve tribes layin at the head of corners in hoods
Hell razah
lol its not even out yet and its a classic already? whats it been leaked for 5 days? give it some time
it's already better than BDR, 8Diagrams, Death the Human Dance, Offering, both H.R. albums, American Gangster and many more
up there with Sick Jacken & El-P with the best album...
the album feels like Lupe is making even a bigger statement than Nas did with HHID...like this HHID how it should've been....
bring back begongo!!
BDR, 8 Diagrams, The Offering, and American Gangster are better than El-P and the Sick Jacken albums.
Haven't heard the whole album yet, gonna cop it tommorow. Let me see if it tops my spot for the best album of 2007, i'm going with Desire by Pharoahe Monch right now...second place is 8 diagrams, third is Finding Forever.
KONICHIWA BITCHES!

I dont wanna shit on this album. im just disapoointed. i thought I was hear a hip hop savior for the mainstream. I fell so dumb not realizng lupe sounds like kanye. I never heard his voice or before. just that food and liquor was dope. so i bought in to it. out of all the hip hop albums I bought this year . this is the least fav.
so its like this. perce p perservence, afro samuari, 8 diagrams, big doe rehab. stone throws 10 years and the offering shit on this album.
