Nah… WAVE was a 7 and a 7 means he liked it and thinks the project is a great addition to their discography. T&Y was a strong 8 to a light 9. Density doesn’t always equate to better music. T&Y was significantly dense but also appealing. Such a great album.
This is insane, T&Y is one of the best rap albums of all time, no one rapper last decade made a lyrical song like mural and deep/inteligent song like AOTM. Easy a 9 for sure.
He's not denying the highlights of the album, it's just a very big album that he found to have a couple duds in the tracklist. 7 is still a positive score.
My opinions on Lupe Fiasco albums Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor: 10/10 Lupe Fiasco’s The Cool: 9/10 Lasers: 4/10 Food & Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album: 6/10 Tetsuo & Youth: 9/10 DROGAS Light: 5/10 DROGAS Wave: 8/10 DRILL MUSIC IN ZION: 8/10
My favorite part of Fantano's Wave rating was when he said the songs weren't deep and were about dead slaves- when all of the songs are about very alive slaves.
Did Lupe change or did Fantano's taste mature? Go back and listen to T&Y and Drogas. They aint 7's chief. And F&L2 should be a 7 because his summary for Drogas works for F&L2 better.
I think lupe changed. Fantano seems to have problems with his early prod and then some duds in the track lists. His newer albums are all hitters no filler
@@super6070 the real answer is that they both did. Fantano was young back then and so was Lupe. They both matured. There was a time when it was popular to hate on Lupe (I guess now be one of those times cause a lot of blonde white girls be hating on him or some shit...i dont get why I be seeing these type Lupe haters fr). People started trashing Lupe for Lasers which wasnt THAT bad.
@@evanwilliams3821 You chose to highlight Bitch Bad? Of all the songs? I dont even know where to begin. I think you need to respectfully bow out of this discussion. Ill take your hottake as is. FYI, Strange Fruition >>>>> Bitch Bad (not to mention that track came out half a decade before Kapernick took a knee). I would place Bitch Bad as middle of the pack. I take that back. Its in the lower half.
😭😭😭😭 bruh did not give both Tetsuo and Drogas Wave light 7s but then give that bs Drill Album an 8. His ear and innerstanding of Lupe need a damn Q-Tip cuh
You didn’t like drill music in Zion? Easily has some of Lupe’s best work on it and it’s short and concise. And there’s 0 mid songs. They’re all great. You may need to clean your ears and spin that record a few more times.
if you agree that T&Y is a 7 then you don't need to be listening to Lupe anymore because there is no way he understands the album and just gives it a 7
@@robintetris no he did not. He just scratched the surface, you should do some more research yourself to understand how much he missed. Fantano did not do shit before reviewing that album, because frankly at the time there wasn't much clue out there for him to do so even if he's actually wanted to, and until these days, people still catch new thing after years of listening. That album is one of the greatest concept albums of all time
Im a Lupe FAN and I can't say ty was a 10. Sorry. It has flaws, blur my hands wasnt the one and some of the other tracks were a little off. If rate it 8.5 it was still incredible, but 10 suggests a form of perfection, which it wasn't

I can’t believe he only gave WAVE and T&Y a 7. Two of the best hiphop albums of all time imo

My opinions on Lupe Fiasco albums
Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor: 10/10
Lupe Fiasco’s The Cool: 9/10
Lasers: 4/10
Food & Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album: 6/10
Tetsuo & Youth: 9/10
DROGAS Light: 5/10
DROGAS Wave: 8/10
DRILL MUSIC IN ZION: 8/10
Give drogas a 9 and I can agree
I'm talking about Wave not light
T&Y a 10
i couldnt get into the older material, but i really like the tetsuo and zion
I like drogas light more than F&L2
drogas wave and tetsuo and youth are 9s imo
Them shits are 4
I'd be curious to see a Lasers Redux. To me, that album was so disappointed when it first came out but I think it's aged really well since.
I was just thinking that bro. It sounds way better than 98% of pop records nowadays.
My ranking would be
8. Lasers
7. F&L2
6. DROGAS LIGHT
5. DROGAS WAVE
4. F&L
3. The Cool
2. Drill Music in Zion
1. Tetsuo and Youth
My favorite part of Fantano's Wave rating was when he said the songs weren't deep and were about dead slaves- when all of the songs are about very alive slaves.
he got another 8!!
F&L2 should be higher based on the Cold War production alone. One of my favorite beats all time
does anyone know what score he gave the cool and food & liquor
I am here to predict that he will give Samurai a light 9 lol
He gave Zion an 8? Got damn.

Bitch bad is a great song but basically every other song ranges from boring to trash imo so I'm fine with F&L2

I think T&Y score makes sense at the time. I feel like its an album that has aged better and is better now then it was then if that makes sense.
Mural should have carried T&Y into at least an 8.
Where’s food & liqour?
This is from 2011 to current
Samurai predict 8-9
😭😭😭😭 bruh did not give both Tetsuo and Drogas Wave light 7s but then give that bs Drill Album an 8.

DMIZ isn’t a drill album at all lol
drill is def better than tetsuo. I can't speak on drogas wave yet because I haven't heard it tho
Bruh T&Y is a 10/10 light 7??
if you agree that T&Y is a 7 then you don't need to be listening to Lupe anymore because there is no way he understands the album and just gives it a 7
Eh, I'd give it an 8
He doesn’t understand it. It’s a 10 imo and a top 5 rap album OAT for me, even ignoring lyrical values it’s got fanatic production, flow, etc
he understands it perfectly fine, he does his research
Bro 7 is a fine score. He enjoys the album. No need to attack someone's credibility over that lmao. Music is subjective
@@robintetris no he did not. He just scratched the surface, you should do some more research yourself to understand how much he missed.
