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

***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.
