True. Lupe may have sold out to contain a more commercial sound in his music. But honestly I’d rather see a rapper with positive, uplifting music sell out as opposed to a rapper that raps about the same topics (drugs, crime, sex, ect). Waka Flocka raps about killing people yet showed up on an ad by PETE to stop skinning animals. Wayne raps about the shit I mentioned and was eager to use autotune, make a pop-rock album, and do songs with Maddona. I’m not hating on Waka or Wayne but lets stop this criticism whenever a back pack rapper (Common) incorporates a poppish sound that other rappers do and get praised as if they’re making career moves.

He never said he hated the album. He said he “hated the process” that he had to go through to get it out. He actually loves the music on the album.

He might not have a choice if this album sells well. Atlantic Records pretty much told him “do things our way or you don’t get to release the album, nor will we release you from your contract.” If this record succeeds Atlantic won’t give him any other choice but to continue selling out.

I’m not sure if Lupe doing good numbers on album that he doesn’t even like is going to help much. Atlantic may use this as an excuse to continue taking away his creative control. I listened to the album and was thoroughly disappointed with the beat selection and guest appearances, if this album does well the next album might sound as bad.

Black youth’s biggest enemies are possessive nouns and subject-verb agreement.

Lupe semi-sold out and will make big money, does he sell out further?

Pharoahe Monch’s WAR will be album of the year.

I wonder how Bol feels about doing ‘Lupe Fiasco numbers’ now. Album is still mediocre.

Well, this is hits daily double. I remember them being wrong about Rick Ross beating Eminem like it was yesterday. Wouldn’t surprise me if this prediction is off the mark come next week.

Well-deserved…Lupe did something great with an album that was basically forced. To all my real LASERS “Food & Liquor 2″ on the way.
