I agree. I thought the Lupe album, as a whole, was pretty weak.
Agreed, but I haven't really been a fan since "The Cool".
Not sure if anyone has heard the version of "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe" with Lady GaGa but I think Kendrick should have used that version instead of the album version.
"I'm gonna pop some tags, only got 20 in my pocket"
Got that stuck in my head along with "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe" for the past two days.
Wanna take back what I said about GKMC. Just listened to it in depth. The way Kendrick can bring in long dialogues into his verses is just amazingly unique.

Uhm, Ross is a very good rapper. He's been killing it lately.
Blows my mind how this dude even gasps his way through 16 bars. He needs to put a shirt on, first of all. It blows my mind more that people actually think he can rap. He has the same flow (which sucks, by the way) on every track and has weak lyrical content (and I'm being generous when I say that). MM wouldn't be shit without Meek and even he's fallen far from his days in Philly, in my eyes.
+1 on the Kendrick Lamar album. My man is the real deal and this album is definitely going to be one of the best of the decade.
Wait...Lupe is still relevant? He should've stopped after the first Food & Liquor..
The Man with the Iron Fists soundtrack, while not exclusively rap, is probably my favorite album of the year.
Lyrically, Lupe has been on point as ever, but something was missing from F&L II. I think the absence of Gemini, Bishop G and Santos have had a substantial affect on his music. Even more so, there are a lot of other factors like production, cohesiveness, shitty songs like Battle Scars and maybe even a lack of realness.
Lupe's been falling off since Lasers, I dunno if he can bring himself back at this point. Honestly, after The Cool dropped I thought Lupe would be one of the greatest lol.
