    Nope Skulls is a completely different album, it was yesterday or the day before where Lupe said he's sitting on top of 4 unreleased albums right now

    "Yes and so im writing that and nas was like yo thats dope and i was like yeah, so if you (nas) want a verse on it let me know."

    This might be the album where we get the Nas collab

    Because he probably needs to clear samples or get a master done on it which takes money and he maybe is waiting the rona out to tour and build funds for that?

    Either way I’m so in for this s*** I hope it doesn’t go the way of Roy

    Wow an EP then, hope the songs will be long at least. Hopefully next year we’ll get Skulls then

    I hope Lupe will bring back Matthew Santos for this album or Skulls as one of the features. We’ve already heard enough of Nikki Jean, nothing against her

    He talked about skulls at length.

    He said he had to pull some of the life story pieces out of the album because of the Mickey situation.

    Seance was supposed to be the intro where they resurrect basquiat with the chorus being BROOKLYN I N THE HOUSE.

    And Living Dangerous was supposed to be the outro because basquiat passed away in a limousine going to a run dmc concert. And the hook is “I wanna be famous by any means, living dangerous in limousines”

    Album would’ve 100% been a classic if it came out
