Mixtapes were fire, F&L was good, The Cool was above average due to the abundance of hit or miss songs, LASERS was trash, and his new shit sounds like it's going to be in between The Cool and LASERS as far as quality goes.
... I also think he's one of those rappers that fans become obsessive over. It's rare that you find a Lupe fan. Usually all his fans are stans. You hear ridiculous shit from them, like he's top 10 or he's the next Nas and dumb shit like that. Rarely do you see/hear objective Lupe fans. Lupe fans are in the same category as Em's and every dead rapper's fans. They boost their favorite artists to ridiculous levels that doesn't even make sense.
Lol at "its rare that you find a Lupe fan"
I know plenty. In fact, my sophomore year at college I was apart of the campus activities council and was in charge of bringing Lupe for the fall concert that year. Sold out the campus gym in 3 days. Ppl knew every song word for word. If he didnt have a fanbase he wouldnt have 3 gold albums. Everytime you post you contradict your damn s/n, idk how you consistently manage that.
I meant that all his fans are obsessive fans aka stans. That's why the next sentence wrote, "usually all his fans are stans.".. and then I went on and gave examples of the crazy shit they say.
They think dude is already GOAT level, despite him having an average catalog. They actually make excuses for LASERS even though Lupe himself said it was wack.

@nothingbuttruth I meant that all his fans are obsessive fans aka
stans. That's why the next sentence wrote, "usually
all his fans are stans.".. and then I went on and
gave examples of the crazy shit they say.

having an average catalog. They actually make
excuses for LASERS even though Lupe himself said
it was wack.
-Lupe Fiasco.“There’s nothing really to tell about that record, to be honest. I didn’t have nothing to do with that record. That was the label’s record. That wasn’t like I knew the producer or knew the writer or anything like that. That was one of those records the record company gave me, [they even gave me] stuff they wanted me to rap about. “Lu continued. “I had to do ‘Show Goes On,’ that was like the big chip on the table. I had to do it and it had to be the first single if the record was going to come out. And then there’s ‘Never Forget You’ [featuring John Legend]—which is another record I had nothing to do with—which became another bargaining chip, like, ‘Yo, after ‘Show Goes On’ there’s going to be this other record that you had nothing to do with.”
-Lupe Fiasco.“I don’t like the process behind Lasers. The music is dope but I just don’t like the process. We were literally at the point where all this music was done except for a couple songs that we did after the protest. So the bulk of the album was done. And we were talking about shelving the album and going to another label, that’s where we were like, ‘If you put the record out, put it out. Either move on to another album or can it and we’ll do other records at another label.’ The business of it got solved. I’m happy for the fans, this is their album. This is the album that they fought for and that’s what made me do songs like ‘Words I Never Said’ and ‘All Black Everything.’

He doesn't like the album because it wasn't what HE wanted to make, it was more along the lines of what the LABEL wanted and I quote:
-Lupe Fiasco.“There’s nothing really to tell about that record, to be honest. I didn’t have nothing to do with that record. That was the label’s record. That wasn’t like I knew the producer or knew the writer or anything like that.

Oh and let us continue to quote:
-Lupe Fiasco.“I don’t like the process behind Lasers. The music is dope but I just don’t like the process. We were literally at the point where all this music was done except for a couple songs that we did after the protest. So the bulk of the album was done.
