Lupe Fiasco - DROGAS WAVE (Discussion Thread)

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Closing out the album with a sermon

LuGOAT TAKE ME TO CHURCH YABASHBA! WAH TAH!!

 

[Zero]

Fish is my friends and the whales is my homies
Octopus is my peoples, the shrimp, they all know me
The sharks is my nikkas, the dolphins is with us
The crabs is my comrades, the seahorse be holdin us down
Jellyfish, they just be rollin around
Lobsters is cool, they are not food
They part of the creeeew...
...I mean they down

 

[RAW_SPK]

All I got is gold...golden memories

When I think about...what you did to me

 

[T-K-G]

Drogas is literally the only song that seemed weird for obvious reasons

Everything after that was smooth af that's crazy

production ridiculous, verses and hooks fire, dope concept as always

And above all else, this would be VERY uncomfortable for any cacs to listen to or rap along with this for US

No lie this is like the first time I actually embrace a album without any type of distraction (gaming, looking at Youtube vids, etc). I wanted to embrace every lyric and production to digest the truest artform. Like you can tell Lupe is spiritually in a right place on a artist level with this album. The only dud was probably Stronger because it kinda fell a bit flat. For the most part, this album is AOTY. I'm a huge sucker for concept albums, dope lyrics and smooth but rugged production and this album has all three.

Bottom line here's my ranking on this album:

The Cool>>>>>F&L(Retail and advance)>>>>>DROGAS WAVE>>>>>T&Y>>>>>F&L2>>>>FNF Mixtape series>>>>>DROGAS light>>>>Chilly Chill's prison slam>>>>>Nikki Jean's microphone>>>>>LASERS
