  1. I need L.A.S.E.R.S. like… yesterday

  2. Theme music to a drive is Lupe’s best song and one of raps top………20? Maybe 30?

    Not in terms of influence but straight lyrics.

    What do ya’ll think?

  3. Lu is that dude!
    but does anyone know why he changed the title of the album? and does it mean he’s gonna continue rappin after the release?

  4. Timeless messages of positivity will last forever.

    This is the biggest reason why Lupe is my favorite rapper.

  5. He changed the album title because he says he plans to drop LupEND – The Three Disc Album later on. He has a few more albums up his sleeve. I’m glad! It would have been tragic if he just left that soon.

  6. ^ Lupe is my favorite rapper too and thanks !

  7. my nigga look like a old ass jazz player

  8. he dope as fuck doe

  9. Yeah, Atlantic wouldn’t let him drop the triple disc LupEND and finish his contract with them so he’s gotta do at least 3 more albums (including Lasers) and then he’ll drop LupEND on his own

  10. Lu is definitely in my top 5.

  11. Can’t wait for that album to drop.

  12. i wish the whole community would listen to him, real talk

  13. and this is why he is my all time favorite rapper

  14. @ The Most Hated, I fully agree lol. Lu is probably my favorite rapper right now.

  15. Actually, he’s probably my favorite rapper, period.

  16. What about the importance of dropping Laser?!?!?! Is the album not important anymore??? We needed that album like yesterday.

  17. @Yezzirman I know what you mean haha and Lupe is incredibly dope.
    Looking forward to Lasers more than anything else this year.

  18. @ The Most Hated…Lupe’s most lyrical track is Twilight Zone or Failure

    metaphors are ridiculous..have u wonderin wat b goin thru dis nigga’s head or how he even thought of that

  19. Best Ever, top 5 or 10, no question

  20. @d. swank I agree with you. It’s amazing to see an emcee so revered off only two (classic imo) LPs. There should be no question that he’s a top 5 or 10 spitter.
