Precious Things

I feel like I have seen that picture before. Was that on his wolfstudio website?

F&L2 is the closest Lupe ever got to being one of those corny rappers tbh

B**** Bad is one of his corniest songs period ngl

bodied ms mural

seattle is beautiful

Lu a genius smh

I didn't catch the climate change stuff, gotta get some more locked in listens going smh

whole album is crazy but right now my favorite track is probably Ms. Mural...so many dope bars, love the production...just a dope vibe

How did autoboto end up being one of my favorite song off the album

Naomi #1

not rap aoty by any means but truly solid body of work

that jojo reference

yeah wish the prod. was more detailed tbh

the piano outro!!!

Yeah there’s a bunch of climates change lines on here

Drilling for oil

God this is so good!!!
This is just a straight hip hop record
From one of the greatest writers of all time bro
What a blessing my nigga

This is exactly the kind of album I always wanted him to make

Like my nigga listen to the title track
This shouldn’t even be possible
Something this dense
Articulated this well
That actually resonates
Over beautiful piano loops
While this Nigga is poetically telling you to transcend in coded language
I don’t think niggas are really appreciating what this nigga be doing man Lmao

his delivery on Naomi

Like listen to Seattle man!
This s*** is spiritual as f*** bro

Giving you a fourth, wanna make up for the first
Only 'cause I know that you can take another verse
Want the Quran to be a lie 'cause Hell sounds like it hurts
Also want it to be real 'cause Heaven sounds like it's turnt
Wear my conscience like a condom 'cause I don't wanna be burnt
Wear my dharma like its armor 'cause I don't wanna return
To the wheel of the quivering meat conception
Sometimes I hide inside Kerouac for protection
From the Thanksgiving where bears attacking the dressing
Like Tekken, just lean back and tear into that refreshment
Sometimes real life parallaxes in depression
That's real
Maybe not lie, maybe just chill (Yo)
Maybe not die, maybe just kill (Wait, no)
Maybe survive making a mil'
Greetings wavy but wavy don't make you a Navy SEAL

Completely disagree on the production, F&L2 had some bland generic beats and while the mixing was “good” it lacked character

Man I’m really struggling to crack this album conceptually, hope y’all keep postin breakdowns

I get the idea that it’s drill music, not drill music… but how do the songs fit into the theme

If u listen to the album with the idea of contradiction in mind it makes more sense just like how the title itself is a contradiction

For example in Ms. Mural, the line
"And the velocity of trends is what referees the pace
Professionally accept what ethically I hate
So in all of my work, you see this wrestling with fate"

Or in precious things how something precious like hands that can be used to create but are instead used to destroy/violence
