Lupe will not go down in hip hop history because his music has little to no emotional appeal. There are honestly some songs by Pac, BIG, Nas, Jay-Z that have appealed to me (n/h), whether they made me want to rejoice, or party, or just reflect upon life. Lupe is a dope rapper, I spend a lot of time reflecting on his lyrics, but never on his songs/music. Lupe is a much better rapper than Kanye. But Kanye has a much better claim for GOAT than Fiasco.

How many rappers can do absolutely nothing for 3 years, have all this music recorded, but refuse to drop a mixtape, and then come out with a weak album, denounce your single, and fuck up all the promotion and still manage to sell 200 thou the first week? Shit don't make sense. A nigga like Rick Ross couldn't sell 200 thou with all the promo, production, hit singles, critical acclaim, ect. Having 3 or 4 gold albums, you'd think William Roberst would have the bigger fanbase. I expected LASERS to flop.

Comparing Lupe to Rick Ross makes no sense son they have nothing in common besides them calling themselves rappers. Lasers's wasn't going to flop since the fans wanted a Lupe album from day one, them planing a protest and then not buying the album wouldn't make sense plain and simple.
Also because of all the negative hype about it on Twitter and this site niggas wanted to know how bad it was so they went out and bought it like I did.

Do you think Metallica fans are gonna completely disregard all of their music and be done with 'em if they drop 1 bad/mediocre album?
Prolly not.
kingofdetroit;2249213 said:Only DUMB people don't understand that Lupe's album wasn't made for him, it was for the label. That's the ONLY reason he hates the album, it doesn't mean that it isn't Lupe doing his thang on there so obviously you're still gonna get that Lupe Fiasco material regardless. DUMB people don't get it and DUMB people wouldn't buy it after what Lupe said about it. He never said "Don't Support My Work" just that he hated the way it had to come out in the end do to label pressures. He wasn't FORCED to do songs. He just had to give the label certain "TYPES" of songs that he didn't want to base the album on. Sometimes u have to cave for the better good. It's like at least Lupe Fiasco has a 3rd album available!
