Lupe Fiasco Talks "Lasers," Favorite Album Thus Far
by on August 24th, 2009
Fans of acclaimed MC Lupe Fiasco may be in for a surprise with his forthcoming LP as the 'Superstar' hitmakers says he will be experimenting with different types of music.
"I feel like, 'cause of my first two albums, that now I have the foundation to just branch off and just do not really crazy [music] or whatever I want, but just make music outside of who I normally make music for," Lupe said referring to his upcoming album during an interview at the Coke Live Festival.
"I feel like I have my true fans, my hardcore fans down, locked down, and now I can kinda experiment with other types of music and it's really good. It's my favorite album thus far."
'Lasers,' which is slated to hit stores in December, will be Lupe's 3rd studio album following the critically praised release of "The Cool."
Lupe originally intended on retiring with a bang by releasing a triple LP entitled 'LupE.N.D.'
Those plans were then put on hold indefinitely as he prepped 'The Great American Rap Album' which was later dubbed We Are Lasers and then changed to Lasers.
Lasers is an acronym for "Love Always Shines Everytime Remember 2 Smile".



























and was he quoted wrong cause: " now I have the foundation to just branch off and just do NOT really crazy [music] or whatever I want…" <- that means he isn’t doing really crazy music or whatever he wants.
and dude didn’t even drop a release date. wasn’t this shit supposed to drop in like July? and hopefully he gets off that Matthew Santos crutch. cause yeah the collabs are dope but if he is really experimenting he needs to come up with his own hit single. point blank: Superstar sold because of the hook, not cause of Lupe.

Lupe dropped 2 albums that are wayyy better than Lloyd Banks’ albums…In my opinion The Cool is a classic in terms of theme,lyricism and production…And least importantly Lupe got a grammy…Something which a G Unit member doesn’t have
The coolest nigga
Steady mobbin’(before lil wayne stole the title)
He say she say
Hurt me soul
Pills
Twilight Zone freestyle
Dumb it Down(made to make fun of niggas like you)
Intruder Alert
Game time
Bottom Top
and countless other freestyles and songs, Need i say more?
Nigga, you have Lloyd Banks as an avatar, his career jumped off the cliff ALREADY, so how could you possibly have an opinion.smh
Lupe is overated to uneducated.(example: you spelling “Kanye” wrong TWICE….dumbass. smh) Just cuz you’re either too lazy or too stupid to figure out what a nigga is saying isn’t his fault. It’s your parents’ and your school systems’ fault for not educating you properly, nigga.
Kanye makes bob your head shit but lyrically he’s not fucking with Lupe, no one currently is.He’s in a class all by himself, Lyrically and in consistacy. And so what if that nigga rides a skateboard, niggas should be EVEN MORE embarassed that a nigga with a skateboard is lyrically killing all of the fake ass gun toting, henney sipping, blunt smokin niggas u say are tight!smh
step yo game up nigga, be clear!!
let them kids talk shit…they dont know better!
and gold watch…he lyrically kills that shit…
hip hop saved my life…(slim thug dedication)he dedicated that to the whole texas scene if you think about cause it’s kinda hard down here for an artist…besides that good story tellin’
and last but not least…kick,push…that song along is story tellin at it’s best…he took skateboard as the theme and life is about getting up when you fall hard and keep rolling…something writer1 will never know anything about…
the only thing he(writer1) falls on is dick and gets up on that shit as well…faggot
better than BP3, Cuban linx 2, Slaughterhouse, Before i self destruct, Relapse, Carlito’s way.
Oh wait…
p.s. food and liquor went double platinum.
I live in northeast d.c., come down here stuntin if u want. Cam did, and look what happened.nigga be clear
and Lloyd Banks…don’t make me laugh nigga, he wouldn’t have even went 1 time platinum w/o 50.He does have a lil skill behind him, but he’s famous by association.Every nigga knows that.smfh
The fact of the matter is if he weren’t associated with 50 he would’ve fell off by now, cuz he can’t make it on his own.
Lupe came out by himself, as the front man of his crew, not a soldier.And he single handedly holds HIMSELF down, no one else is doing it for him.
Nas is a great rapper,one of my top 3, but his content nowadays in comparison to then is not as good. Plus Nas is “hoodly sophisticated”, whereas Lupe is “sophisticatedly hood”. There’s a difference.But I don’t expect u to know that.
P.S. Houston is the Rap capital of the south
if kanye did 808s beforfe graduation it wouldnt have been as successful but graduation fuckin solidified him and gave him room to flop even though he didnt…if lupes “experiment” sucks then his retirement is after this album. thats how i feel i think he shouldve kept it 100% LUPE one more time
ima fucks wit it tho cause lupe is nice
ite writer theres so many but myy personaL opinion would say..
he say she say
hurt me soul
twilght zone (kraaazy)
failure
conflict diamonds
i know you said 3 but just check any of them out…..my mind was blank so dont get uptight ppl when you read my selcetion of top 3 lupe songs lol
get at me writer
i already told this nigga “writer1” the list he could check out,(like 12 posts above.lol) but i guess it aint what u say but how u say it to get niggas to understand.
And that line" cooler than the other side of the pillow" was said by Outkast first, it’s an ol’ pimp line. Know the facts homie, and the history behind ALL music, not just the past 5-6 years of rap. It gives u a much wider range in knowing what youre talking about.There’s not too much i don’t have from the past 30+ years.(and i’m still in my early 20s’) not to mention my music from the 50s-60s…..must i tell u again…..GET YOUR GAME UP!!!smh
“banks is a better one point blank period”
i give up this clown is craaazy you need rehab dude get of that drug your on cuz what you say is pure bullshit….i shant reply to you, your a waste of time…..i respect that you have diffrent taste but to say that banks is better than lupe damn homie i dont know what to say ……but someone PLS EDUCATE THIS NIGGER! peace
I swear I hate Lupe Fiasco bcuz of mutherfuckers like yall
Does it make u feel smarter that you learned a new word 2 use?
cuz to me, all you lil niggas are still dumb as a motherfucka.
smh
