the best thing about Lupe's music, and the reason it retains such heavy replay value, is that there's NO way you're gonna catch all the allusions, subtle symbolism, undertones, or metaphors off one listen... you gotta let this shyt soak into your soul :noah:

you actually have to listen to Lupe differently than you would most MC's just because he packs in so many little gems and easter eggs into what would otherwise be considered just another rhyme that it may go over your head if you just casually have one ear to the music

I was listening to Failure like 3 years after it dropped and still catching little slick wordplay and references


BUT even at its surface, when taken at face value, it's STILL really dope music accessible to most... and that's what makes him so great, there's a little something for everyone

I have more than double your posts but yet you're in more than double the Nas threads I'm in and you calling me a stan?:ld: your posts all consist of the same thing, "Hov:boss:" "Nas lost" and "damn Jay stay winning" you shouldn't be calling anyone a groupie

I shoulda known...

Thought the album was gonna be ass, and was real disgusted when Lupe said that this wasn't a sequel to F&L as much as it was a label decision...

...but man. :wow:
