I have been trying to listen to this album since it hit the shelves last week. Now going into a review of this album when I haven't even heard the entire thing would not benefit me or anyone who would like to know how the album sounds or if it lives up to the hype of Lupe's previous album "The Cool". So note as I am typing this blog I am listening to it with an open ear and I will give as much feedback on the album as I can. As I'm listening to this album it seems that Lupe stuck to his usual style of wordplay and his subject matter. He is very conscious rapper and you can hear it in his songs like in "All Black Everything" he talks about how the black man is exploited and how African Americans have been treated throughout history in America. Now some people don't think that Lupe can make a song that doesn't deal with oppression and the government well he proves many wrong with "Out Of My Head" a song that features radio friendly Trey Songz. So to sum it all up I would rate this album a B- due to the fact that many of his songs seem repetitive to me but that doesn't mean it isn't a good album. So if you like my review and think you might give it a listen let me know what you think of it.
