Lupe Fiasco's food and Liquor Review

A lot of "HipHop" magazines do album reviews...Ive always wondered why they didn't have a break down for every track and why they didn't incorporate the album art in the review.. So I said let me do my own review. But I didn't want to just review any album.. I only want to review albums that affect our culture as a whole...In the times that we are living in, a new young cat Like Lupe Fiasco can affect or culture. So here is a full review of his album

Songs with a * are songs I felt were my favorite

Upon opening the album and reading the credits and seeing the album art I realized the true depth of the man named Lupe...The photos in the booklet shows young kids in class rooms with guns...The teacher is giving out guns to all of the kids....I found this to be real funny and true of our young youth today and the school system..But as I went further into the album I saw pictures of gang members with books in there hands doing drive bys with guns...There was also people laying down looking dead with books all over there body...It was a real dope visual and very different so I give the all around album art a --10

Each track and small review will end with a number judging the song from 1-10 and at the end they will all be added up and averaged to get the albums rating from 1-10

Tracks

1. Intro- Dope Poetry...Dope track and ill break down of album--7
*2. Real- Crazy Beat-Different Flow...This track truly stands out--10
3. Just Might Be ok- hot beginning...Sick word play--9
4. Kick Push- Classic track--Different perspective--10
5. I Gotcha--Club Banger-Ill Wordplay...The Neptunes went in on this Beat-10
6. The Instrumental- Ill ass concept Dope beat By Mike Shinoda--10
7. He say She Say--Good story telling skillz...Track Flows nice...Good vocal Performance by Singers--9
8. Sunshine-Cool girl track..Flows nice--8
9. Day Dreaming--Second Verse is Hard...Jill Scott kills it--10
10. The Cool--Dope Story Real Different--9
*11. Hurt me Soul--Hot ass fucking song--one of My Favorites--3rd Verse word play is sick--10
12
. Pressure-Hot ass beat...Ill Verse 1...Jay-z stepped up his shit for lupe-10
***13. American Terrorist- Speaking the truff--Last verse is sick...Currently my favorite track of the fall--10
14. The Emperor's Sound Track- didn't really like it so much...But the whole production was sick--7
15. Kick Push II-Hotness---crazy word play and incorporation of the words kick push in the song--10
16. outro--Regular shout out track--I didn't give a rating for this track

So there goes your review.. Now let me break down the rating 1-4 is wack 5-6 is an ok album 7-8 is a good album and 9-10 is a classic.

So when you average out lupe's album its a 9.3...this includes the album art ....Well I guess this album will be a album that doesn't sell that much until like 4 years from now when all these lame's catch up to the depth of Lupe Fiasco...I hope all you new age skater kids go out and support the guy who inspired you aight...I see yall the next time a album is Worthy enough of a full 5LatTopMag review.

'The Crocodile Hunter' Hunts no more

If your like me then MTV doesnt run your life...i Watch Other shows other than TRL and 106 & park ...and all the other crap on TV...One of the shows i loved to watch was the Crocodile Hunter...i loved seening this Crazy Dude go around messing wit animals..but sad too say the man known as Steve Irwin the Crocodile Hunter has died...

''CAIRNS, Australia (Sept. 4) -- Steve Irwin, the hugely popular Australian television personality and conservationist known as the "Crocodile Hunter," was killed Monday by a stingray while filming off the Great Barrier Reef. He was 44.''

"He came on top of the stingray and the stingray's barb went up and into his chest and put a hole into his heart," said Stainton, who was on board Irwin's boat at the time."

Im sure we will see sum shirts poping up wit him on it...i juss hope it doesnt get over abundent with it..i really respected wat he stood for...and ima miss that dude..."Crikey!"

BBC/Bape is way over Rated!!!!!...Must read

Maybe i might be juss hating but The whole BBC..Bape... movement is juss Way OVER RATed rite now..i mean wats the big hype...lemme break down my arguement

BBC is a company based off of big bucks...i think this sends the wrong messege too kids that its all about diamonds and money..yeah all those things are good but kids dont realize that the people making the money had to bust there ass to get where the are today.
NoW BBC is juss Over priced shit...Most of there shirts ans shorts cud be made by any random person...i mean they juss re-use the same image on different apparel...from the new hats they got out to the jeans...the quality is the same as any pair of jeans u wud find in your local clothing store for about $25 or $35...they juss put a logo on a tee and call it a $75 or over $100 item of clothing..so your just paying for the name...which isnt bad because we all pay for a name ...u might use products from one company and not the other juss based of a commercial or the name...but with this clothing line its like the same shit is juss being recycled...


















Now If you are a real NIKE or Adidas head then u shud neva wear a pair of BAPES..Based on the fact that its juss a boot legged version of NIKE and Adidas...The whole out line of the popular BAPE Sneaker is NIKE or even the new ROADSTAS is a Bite off of the Air Max 90's and 93's...


Now wen BAPES first hit the scene it was wac ....people didnt really rock them untill the shiny shits hit then it was hype..Then they hit with the Camo Hoodies which i give NIGO respect for because they changed the Game up for hoodies...people Started doing the All over Prints and all that wild color shit...And its sad too see that Clothing lines now are biting off of these brands and juss poluting the "Street Wear" Fashion World wit the same ol shit.

Now i kno this might sound like hate but..i love seeing a black man make money so i clap my hands for Pharrell and i love seening people change the game and be inovative so i clap for nigo also...but all im asking is change the game again come wit sumthing new, hot, different....And also make sure u send the messege too kids that its more than money u gotta educate ya self...because these kids spend $200 on your Clothing and that $200 cud have been flipped into $1000...but of course i have no problem wit spending large amounts of cash too look good..all im saying is do sum more wit ya money..i kno kids who juss live to buy the hotest new pair of kicks or clothes...and thats not a good messege for these kids to have....

And if it sounds like hate then it probly is...i still respect Skateboard P for his production skills in the Neptunes and i love Clipse...and i also respect NIGO...so yeah peace



Juve Night!!!!

Juve night was not as live as it used to be ....Due to the fact that there was bad weather and alot of plane crashes so people from out of town and around the world probly didnt fly in..and there was a crazy amount of police on the strool....it was about 5 cops on each block for a 30 block radius....but we still got it poping...juss check out these videoes for the night

There was a large ass bike crew of about 30 rolling down chruch Ave.


From this video u can see how blocked and crowded it gets on juve night


And this is juss sum big ol butty being exposed lol!!!!


So meet us out there next time...if u neva been here in Brooklyn for the most celebrated night then u gotta come nexx year ...peace!!!!!!!!!!!!!
