F&L was more lyrical than GKMC, but it didnt have the cohesive narrative and conceptual strength of Kendrick's album. Not to throw shade on Lupe, cause his debut was dope as fukk, but I think that particular Lupe is dead and gone...
Kendricks verses have more honesty in them. Lupe, while being one of my favorite artists doesnt give it to you straight with no chases. He camoflages his lyrics which is a great talent but sometimes you want the message without having to solve a rubix cube. I dont see how that helps people.
I'll take the best songs on F&L II over the best songs on GKMC all day. Strange Fruition, Put Em Up, Around My Way, ITAL, Form Follows Function, Lamborgini Angel, Brave Heart, Unforgivable Youth>>>>>>>
seriously what type of opinions are these :shocked:
F&L2 sucked from start to finish
Lupe stans make me![]()

I guess what I meant by this thread is that Lupe sort of came out as something similar to how Kendrick is seen now. Basically, an average guy who grew up in adverse conditions. Not an outsider to the bullshyt, but not directly involved either. Maybe its just me, but I had hoped that a growing up in Chicago concept album, like |Kendrick did with LA, was going to happen. I could have sworn Lupe actually indicated such a thing at one point.
Maybe live up to his potential that we saw on the first two albums and early mixtapes? His last two albums have been the biggest disappointments to me since I Am... and Nastrudamus...

What do you want him to give you that he already hasnt? Again...Lasers is garbage. I can't listen to that album. F&L II is average. I've given it multiple chances, but it just doesn't do it for me. He's capable of much better. We know it, he knows it.
