  • When Lupe Fiasco announced his retirement plans in early 2008, every hip-hop head within earshot thought, Aren't you just getting started? After all, we're talking about a rapper who rolled onto the scene a few years earlier, weaving his way through a horn-stabbed Kanye West track ("Touch the Sky") and a smoky single about skateboarding ("Kick, Push"). Soon after, Fiasco justified his Jay-Z endorsement — Jigga man called the Chicago native a "breath of fresh air" — with a universally acclaimed debut, 2006's Food & Liquor, and a string-soaked Jill Scott duet ("Daydreamin'") that sampled Tchaikovsky and grabbed a GRAMMY®. As if that weren't enough reason to listen to Fiasco's career unfold, The Cool went the concept-album route and left the charts smoldering. All because of its restless beats and tightly woven storyline, from the heaven-sent hook of "Superstar" to the throwback boom-bap breaks of "Paris, Tokyo" and "Gold Watch." Now pick that mic up, Lu; you've got a job to do.

PHENOMENAL ARTIST

Goldwatch is one of the best songs on his second debut album "The Cool". I think Lupe Fiasco shed light on hip hop and set a different standard on what young rap artists should be focusing on in terms of lyrics. The Cool is a great album and I encourage you to buy it!!!

yes

This is for anyone who wants to here the best of lupe! the only problem is his best song isn't even on here. The Cool off his first album f&l that inspired his second album is so amazing.

Pick this up and make sure to grab "the cool" as well.

amazing

I've never heard lyrical talent like this. Almost every song on here is good. The only one that isn't is Gold Watch. The Hip-Hop Saved My Life is the best rap song ever. I never get tired of hearing the story of that guy who was a gangster, but got richer rapping. He's raising awareness about gangsters like that, and I don't know, but I bet he's raising money for them.
