Thread shouldn't be this dead after all the shyt that Lu said today, but it's w/e

Lupe basically confirmed his 3 albums this year will be DROGAS, Skulls, and ROY (which might stand for Reminisce over You) and has essentially confirmed that even though ROY is HIS last ALBUM, The Cool 2 will still be coming out in Winter 2017

You must've missed the multiple threads about Lupe's tweets...

I think it's obvious sales ain't what he's going for tho...seems like it's straight about quality of music/getting the tours straight. I think he'll straight up drop DROGAS man. In 19 days, how pumped can you really get someone? If that was his prerogative, he could've dropped something November, December, and in the first 10 days of this month
Maybe he'll drop a single that sticks :yeshrug:

Going by his final interviews, we don't even know if he's staying independent or doing another partnership.

Cause it seemed like he wasn't done with this industry shyt yet.

Promo images also on his Instagram.

Seems like every image he posted with the words "Don't Ruin Us God Said" is met with a response: another image with the words "I'll Do My Best".

On the last two images he's got what looks like an old promo poster for 7seven up, with a very young child chucking down a bottle of soda. We all know that soda in general is bad for your health, and the excess amounts of sugar and other shyt in it is linked to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, etc. On top of that, the craving and addiction people have to shyt like soda is comparable to the addiction of drugs, and can end up just as deadly. These products were, and still are marketed to the youth. :ehh:

In response to that ("I'll Do My Best") he's got another example with who I'm guessing is Reagan with a bunch of kids wearing D.A.R.E. shirts, looking to counteract the drug culture during the War on Drugs era. He was everybody from the terror or drugs. However, nikkas know that's a lie. It's well documented how Reagan's campaign/War on Drugs came at the expense of inner-city black people and poor colored communities. So you can look the phrase "I'll Do My Best" in two ways:

Either the response to God is saying they'll do their best not to ruin us, or they'll try their best to ruin us.

Lupe got himself another dope concept (don't even ask me how :wow:)
