The Thinking Man's Hip-Hop Artist

Lupe is so great because he is different. Instead of rapping about how much money he makes and how many women he has (à la 50 Cent), Lupe develops deep and complex rhymes that provoke a response from the listener. Taking inspiration from such varied sources as Nietzche and Cornel West, Lupe produces meaningful, intelligent and intellectual lyrics, a dying art in this day and age (as seen especially on 'Streets of Fire' and 'The Coolest'). Nonetheless, this doesn't mean Lupe can't pull out some quality radio-friendly tracks (Superstar feat. Matthew Santos and Paris, Tokyo), and he is also able to fit a multi-stranded narrative onto 'The Cool' . Following on from 'He Say, She Say' and 'The Cool' on Food & Liquor, Fiasco continues to detail the story of The Cool, The Streets and The Game in a concept so post-modern it will blow your ears. With the assistance of superb artists, including Matt Santos, Snoop, GemStones and production from Unkle, Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy) and Chris & Drop, among others, Lupe is effortlessly able to build on his impressive debut. Step aside Soulja Boy and co., Lupe Fiasco is the image of real hip-hop.

Ultimate ALbum!

This album blew me away at first bite! As much as i love kanye, this album (dare i say it) is on a whole new level to graduation - its pure class. The Cool starts out wif a short epic 'Free Chilly' and then flows into a catchy and quick lil beat wif 'Go Go Gadget Flow'. From there the album maintains its brilliance wif more songs than the average hip-hop album. Besides the obvious choice of Superstar, the songs to watch for are 'Hi-Definition', 'Streets On Fire', 'Little Weapon', 'Hello/Goodbye' & 'Go Baby'

Amazing

This album is seriously the best Hip-Hop album i have heard, before this was kanyes graduation but this just shreds that. Truly great 10/10
