I don’t think rapping is or ever has been Lupe’s strength.
He’s like ... well, honestly, he’s almost like a Kanye figure (broken record here, I know) from another dimension. With less obnoxious behavior and less interesting music. His discography and the path of his music oddly mimics Kanye’s in a lot of ways, except where things worked for Ye, they didn’t work for Lupe.
Basically he’s Food & Liquor, The Cool and Tetsuo for me. Those are the only Lupe albums I need.
