Hey Aficianado can I decide what music you should or should not listen to from now on instead? You'd probably come off as less of an idiot.

sounds like a plan

thx chan ^_^

I like this guy so much less than I feel like I'm supposed to. The white rapper joke doesn't seem very far off to me; all of my white friends who love Motion City Soundtrack and Anberlin all of a sudden love this guy.

Spat out Sexy Men, when someone pointed out that lupe isnt white, you said:

"Wow, you're right bro. Seems like I would have noticed that"

now u are trying to say its a joke? wait i know what u are gonna say: "that was sarcasm"

bro, if it was sarcasm, u wudda made it clear. u made a mistake (and a dumb one at that) and now ure just trying to cover it up.

BTW i havent heard this album yet, but im betting the snoop verse isnt gonna be as great as everyone says it is. snoop is fuckin rediculously terrible nowadays and i really dont believe hes gonna drop a good verse on this album when everything else he drops is rediculously whack. but i guess i better check it out and see.

The fall out from that joke is funnier than the joke itself, lol.

first 5 tracks run real smooth, then Paris, Tokyo comes up and that song is meh

The cover art looks suspiciously like that of the new(est) Thrice album. Coincidence or conspiracy? :D

It's all fabricated by the Illuminati, I tell ya!

I literally just heard this album was worth listening to... agree?

lupe needs to listen to blackstar or immortal technique and then try another record

no thanks

Little Weapon has been stuck in my head

Album Rating: 4.5

I also agree that The Cool is a Awesome album, Dumb it Down, Fighters, Paris, Tokyo and Superstar are some of the most original songs I have ever heard. Don't knock this album because it's unique, after all thats what makes it good!

Album Rating: 4.0

I really like this album so far. It seems the whole "white rapper" thing is more of a coastal thing because almost all the black people in the Mid-west here love Lupe and Common etc...

Album Rating: 4.5

This is a really good album and will probably be on my top 10 album list, I think the reviewer didnt listen to the album enough times. He has deep lyrics that you have to sit and think about to really know what the song is about. Me and my cousin had to look up the lyrics to "the coolest" to understand some of the rhymes.

i kind of prefer this production to Food and Liquor... i thought FnL had better lyrical work on tracks like Daydreamin and american Terrorist.

Album Rating: 3.5

I agree with many of the comments made by not only Dave but with some of the comments made here. I just thought I'd throw my two cents in, the amount that you enjoy this album depends on what you look for in rap/ hip/hop. If you are looking at the beats then yes, Lupe falls a little flat in the sense that they grow a little stagnant. However if you look at it lyrically then this is one of the best. Back to the beats for a second though, they do accomplish what he wanted them to, each song has its own mood, and help to contribute to the overall mood of the album so on a scale I feel like a three is a little low in the age of rap that we are currently in, however I don't think that this album is perfect by any means.

I completely disagree with the majority of people here. This is an excellent album. I don't see how most of you are giving this less than a 4..... I don't think most of you doing so really have a good ear for good hip hop music, and appreciate the poetry he has put in the album, but that is just my opinion.

Definitely not the best imo.
Glad that I found another rap album that I can enjoy.

Album Rating: 3.0

Best songs are Go Go Gadget Flow, Superstar, and Fighters, easily.
