New song off of "Lasers". Shit is pretty dope. His album will probably leak pretty soon.

Damn after I saw your album leak comment I was like when the fuck is this dropping? March 8th right around the corner.

Good day for Hip-Hop. Lupe, Raekwon & WC.

This track is wack.  It's not the beat or the vocals it's the lyrical content.  It's inconsistent in its own logic and basically racist. 
Cool breeze; I'm hopping out of new Beams
My outfit ran me a few G's but none of that will matter if you leave
I used to be an Adam with two Eves and shawtys automatically do me
Excuse me, all that happened before you doesn't matter
I'm a vision of the future climbing the success ladder
Recline, in the mean time, twenty three shine, diamond bling blind as I rewind

Lasers is easily going to be Lupe's worst album.  I Don't Wanna Care Right Now also leaked and that's pretty terrible for Lupe.

I hate this trend that started around B.o.B of 90s Pop Beats with rappers on them.  Eminem took it to another level and it sounds like the label really saw this this for Lupe and he attempted to reject.

This is where leaking your own music can be advantageous.  DO IT FOR THE PEOPLE ... which I thought he was all about.  Yet, more inconsistent logic.

Anyways, REKS  R.E.K.S also drops MARCH 8th.  Expecting borderline classic hip-hop on that one.

This song really is pretty damn racist.

So far off this album I've heard this (which isn't a terrible song), but just really..OUT THERE lol & "Words I Never Said", which I really like. I'm trying to save the rest for the full album.

But I respect Action & Tanner's musical opinion, so this could be a flop lol.

To be honest, I think Lupe probably more gangsta than his portrayal.  Chilly doing a long ass bid for drugs that funded FnF and Lupe was recorded on tape talking about red & green vials yet managed to pass it off as they were talking about recording.  I find it hard to believe that Atlantic ain't know either.  That's how he managed to release both Food & Liquor and The Cool with limited artistic conflict - label didn't care as much because they weren't funding him as much.

This guy is rapping about a Black World, like this country doesn't have a Black president & Blacks are still degraded. Blacks basically run mainstream music & all major sports. It almost is "all black everything".

Meanwhile what this guy doesn't understand is that yeah slavery was fucked up, but if we left Blacks in Africa, they wouldn't be developed. There would just be more tribes & probably more violence due to more people. This guy has a whole verse about how Hip Hop would be. LOL @ the thought of Hip Hop just developing. & where is English coming from in order to even rap?

In the chorus he says they stay in Africa & the White man has no part in it & then in the first verse he says "they would have to employ us". It doesn't even make sense. If we never showed up, how would we employ you? But above all, the thought that Africa would be a highly developed nation if White people played no part in it is almost comical.

Maybe it isn't racist, but it is pretty ignorant, in my opinion. I think America is at a point where it's equal enough for a song like this to just sound stupid.
