AkerssDec 18, 2007I don't quite know if it's better than Food & Liquor, but it's still great. Favorites include Superstar, Go Go Gadget Flow, and Dumb It Down. Intelligent lyrics, great production, and the best flow around currently.

DemitriK.Dec 18, 2007Instant Classic. The only reason those 60s look bad is because they are 3/5 which doesn't sound as bad as 60/100. and the 75 is a 3/4 which is great.

Even considering the over-abundance of elaboration on all fronts, it's a credit to Lupe that he has made an album that cannot be processed after one or two listens, and if you have the time, its inscrutability turns into mere complexity.

It turns out randomness makes for a surprisingly unifying concept.

Lupe Fiasco and his producers--mostly Soundtrakk--have clarified the lyrics and brought out the hooks. The result is a three-act allegory that’s also one of the year’s best hip-hop albums.
