OUT NOW Lupe Fiasco - Samurai

[Mister B. M. Ed.]

I gave it a whirl. Pretty short for a Lupe album.

Nothing special here. Solid bars, decent beats for the most part, but nothing that WOW'd me.

7/10 on first listen.

 

[AP2.5]

I'ma check it out

 

[Sony Montana]

Skimmed through it once so far

Ehh

I don’t really even care to listen in depth either

This project lacks…I don’t know the word

who's the baddie sitting next to him? Nikki Jean?

No

 

[Iceberg_Taylor]

Niggas willingly wave their hands to Wayne booty hole and dick bars or put Freddie Gibbs pseudo coke raps on a pedestal but got nerve to talk down on Correra Lu

Streets are done

 

[Goldie]

We got em

 

[Iceberg_Taylor]

Got the exact response I expected

 

[unspoken_respect]

Lupes in his bag.

I've always been in favour of albums that are 8 - 12 songs.

I've listened to it twice without the urge to skip. Great so far.

Would be dope if he fully did a jazzmatazz colab style album since he's goes that route often.

My homie was playing this in the background and it sounded like ass. So much so that when I heard Stronger I thought he sampled Ye and was finally going somewhere with it

Turns out the album had been done and it was just shuffling tracks at that point

 

[Eyerone]

Palaces is the dopest joint on there to me.

 

[nex gin]

Last couple of Lu albums have been meh. Drogas is the last one I had In rotation.

 

[400Degreez]

Drove into work with it on. Listened to it throughout the day at work yesterday. Maybe I'm missing something but a lot of this was forgettable. The flow was lazy.
It's background music. Maybe I'll give it another spin in a few weeks.

 

[Sony Montana]

nail in the coffin

Time for Lupe to make fitness TikToks and street fighter YouTube vids

 

[KingBlafy]

I like it

Most of it isn’t super Lupe lyrical deep, but I enjoy the beats and flow

No 1 headband is cool, Afro Samuari reference

 

[Iceberg_Taylor]

Dope album, would place this in the middle of his discography tho.

Mumble rap and Palaces are peak lupe
Samurai, Til Eternity dope records

Like the jazz feel of the album, like an extension sonically of Drill Music In Zion

Don’t worry there’s plenty of Sexxy Red and Cash Cobain struggle bars for those enjoy them kinda tings in the world
