I figure this is the thread where I should post this.





I'm assuming this post is real due to him saying (on Twitter) that he was trying to update folks on Reddit but couldn't for a moment.



holy shyt it's real and about damn time :ooh::damn:

I may join Reddit just to.keep up with it all... please drop before the winter Lupe

What’s the Logo that will be “VERY IMPORTANT later” ?:jbhmm:
If you check out the logo on the reddit page, the left side of the wave looks like a bird's beak and the negative space inside the R, the bird's eye. So, I think of flight and freedom, which goes along with the wave symbolism and the duality that came with the last real album. He's also used bird sounds in a few Tetsuo & Youth era tracks.

I dunno about that. I didn't notice whether this was the logo he was talking about but if it is. I just see the profile of a face on the left side referring to the quote he included in his update "Those who wouldn’t become slaves...instead became waves.”

Nothing about a bird.

I don’t know what the logo looks like so I don’t know what you’re referring to breh.

In other words, link me to the logo :damn:

Yeah, Romell's avi is the same one Lupe originally posted, so in any case, it's related to that.

Don't know when he updated the reddit post with these updates but I believe this is new.

Working on mad versions of cover art. Can’t decide. Super Cryptic and powerful or just simple and to the point. Did a hand painted one but don’t really love how it turned out.

And the mixes are fire! The mix engineer is killing it.

Wave is definitely my favorite album thus far.

“KING NAS” is not about Nas being a king or anything like that it’s not about the rapper Nas at all. It’s a song I wrote dedicated to and inspired by my two nephews named King & Nas as they journey into manhood. I always dedicate songs to my family.

Last Of the mixes...I really have to decide on album art....and some music video concepts....

Artwork done...couple video ideas done...listening through the final sequence of the album this week to make sure the vibe has survived the mixing process...

Well thank you reddit Wavers. I hope you all enjoyed the Wave updates. This is the last update. I hope you all enjoy the album when it drops. It’s pretty much finished just minor things to go that I really won’t be having too much of a hand in. Sorry it took so long but that’s the nature of things. Again i hope you all enjoy it & Thanx again
