A few days after the release of DW, Lupe posted a series of tweets that would try to provide some clarification about his intentions for the project.

I fucking knew it. In a lot of the reviews that I read people kept "complaining" for lack of a better word about the difference between the 1st and 2nd half of the album. I didn't look at it as a lack of cohesiveness because I had already been listening to the album as if it were two different concepts.
 
it fucked me up before I knew it was separated

it was way too much to take in as a whole

made much more sense after some posts here and the review
 
Aight this is my AOTY just edges out Daytona. To me it’s on par with T&Y.... wanna drop a review but never have enough time. Anyways Ima cop tix next time homies in NY
 
Been listening to this album since it came out. You really can't understand Lupe on first listen and the point he's trying to make. This is why I love music and hip hop in general. Certain music comes right on time for me and shit I go through.
Last year it was Krit and his album & interviews about alcohol. I felt like he was speaking directly to me.
With this album, I been looking for music to stick with me and uplift me. This album does just that. A lot of real shit. Especially Alan Forever.
Like I've only listened to the Slave Ship Interlude a handful of times.
What's going on in society today and thinking of what my ancestors went through. Man it's tough. I get angry listening to that but I just applaud the perseverance of black folk. All the shit we done been through and we still here fighting and come together when we need to.
I know people may call this nerd rap or whatever and have jokes but it's really worth a couple of listens. I never really banged Lupe's music in my car but if I'm just cruising I'll listen but I mainly listen while I'm at work in thought and at home when I'm chilling.
It's a long album with a lot of wordplay to take in though. Production is top notch. Manilla, Down, and the best track on the album is King Nas are my favorites.
I ain't all that good with reviews and all that but I'm rating this at least 4 out of 5.
 
Lupe has always been in my top 5...I cooled off on his music for a couple years now unfortunately. But played the album and I can whole heartedly say









WE BYKE!

*PLAYS HAPPY TIMBUCK2 DAY*
 
2/3 of the way through this album and I can say that it's not for me. This is the first Lupe album I've tried listening to in full and, if this is what his other albums are generally like, I'm glad I have bypassed them up until this point. Definitely an elite lyricist but I can't get jiggy with this album. Maybe the last 8 tracks will change my mind.
