Read Lupe's blog posts he even puts the blame on himself
Wym how is he to blame himself? Like they didn’t even push shining down and persuaded him to go in a particular direction with the album
“oh yeah he had that one album and fell off just playing Street Fighter”
Lmfao nasty
It was partially Jays fault.
Jay was gonna take a position at Atlantic and persuaded Lupe to sign under him with Atlantic but ended up going to Def Jam instead and the rest is history.
wowwwwwww that f***in sucks
I feel like he would’ve been in good hands if he were officially signed to Jay too
Man i wish he didnt sign with Atlantic and could release what he wanted instead of Lasers
The concept behind lasers was fine and the aesthetic was cool
It’s just the songs we got were ass lol
They did the same to bobby ray
They really made that man release a Kidz Bop album.
They’re complete joke, I’m still salty we’ve never gotten that LUPEnd album we were supposed to get
I’ve heard theories that it was supposed to be a suicide note but he made Lasers instead coming out as a “beautiful laser”
But that’s only a theory I’ve seen thrown around on Reddit so take that with a grain of salt
Just found out that Atlantic Records was founded by Turkish people
I don‘t know if I should be ashamed or proud

No? It was supposed to be a concept of how a kid picked up bunch of radio signals around the world and the album sound was going to be based on that. One disc was produced entirely by Soundtrakk, 2nd one by James Lavelle, and 3rd by idk who
Would’ve been the GOAT album
