Lupe is my favorite lyricist of all time. Tetsuo and Youth and Drogas are masterpieces.

🔥🔥🔥💯..to both

_The Cool_ is definitely a classic. So many great tracks.

The Cool is my favorite Lupe Fiasco album. It’s ashamed that it’s just now reaching platinum status. The Cool was definitely one of the best mainstream Hip Hop/Rap albums of the 2000s. And should had went platinum instead of gold back when it was released.

Food and Liquor is the one for me. The Cool is right after. Shout out to the King for delivering back to back classic albums.

The cool is flawless.

Best concept album of all time. Executed with unrivaled lyricism. Still haven't heard any other rapper push out triple and quadruple entendres consistently at that level. The Cool is probably why the RapGenius website was originally created, despite it fizzling out in later years and during the mumble rap wave, it was great early on for catching those missed punchlines from thoughtful rappers that put work into their craft. Lupe is undoubtedly one of the greatest of all time and I'll die on that hill. Bar for bar he's up there with anybody people might call the "GOAT"

i agree ive been only around 29 years but ive probably listened to this half my life qnd im still finding gems

This just went platinum? The fuck.

Agreed. The fact the Cool didn’t win The Grammy that year showed me they don’t know shit about hip hop. I think other ppl realized it later with the Macklemore/Kendrick fiasco, no pun intended.

Listened the album to death when it came out. Banger after banger.

I agree. The cool stayed in my car’s cd player(I know, a long time ago) for a year straight. The beats, the lyrics, the flow; I love everything about that album.

Of all the albums I have played start to finish... The cool is a masterpiece front n back every track bangs

Interpret it as you will, but replay value is something Lupe’s music has. Flatly refusing to compromise his values has something to show for. There are amazing albums that are good for a couple of listens and feels like a flash in the pan. Hearing The Cool at 11 and now at 26 with all the things I’ve picked up on from the bars and things I’ve learned growing up has really given me a surprising amount of perspective

Tetsuo & Youth from 2015 is by far his most underrated album. It might be technically his best album too. Some of the best raps I’ve ever heard in my life are on that album.

The Cool, DMIZ, Drogas Wave, T&Y, and F&L are all museum worthy. You can argue the order all you want but few are messin with this discography. There isn't a day that goes by that I'm not bumpin something from one of these albums.

Tetsuo & Youth is Lupe Fiasco's best album in my opinion.

"DROGAS Wave," for me, but honestly you can't go wrong with any of these three.

I’m happy for dawg I love the cool

Lupe is a goat, he's on that head table of rapper rappers. The cool is also a certified classic not just by quantity but the quality of the tracks. unskippable for me, I still listen to it today, it's always been my favourite album from lu

Classic album

I’ve always said this. That album was on another level

Tetsuo and youth is hands down his best

100 percent his best album and the first album I ever purchased

I’m shocked that this album is just now platinum. I prefer f&l 1, but I loved the cool since I bought it back in the day.

I can never decide between The Cool and F&L as his best. F&L is better and more consistent production wise but lyrically The Cool is superior. After those I got T&Y and Drogas Wave neck & neck. It’s almost like having to choose between Illmatic and It Was Written 😫😩 I just can’t pick one

I hope this brotha never retires

Disagree with lu, but its always interesting to hear what an artist thinks is their best work. Like many consider dare iz a Dark side Red's best...but red doesn't like that album because of the dark times it was made in

I agree with Lupe. Not only did The Cool sell the most records, it IS in FACT his BEST album, I would argue almost unequivocally. Hits, concept, Ayesha’s poetry, bars, the Snoop feature, album cover, the fact that it is an ENTIRE prologue to the story of Michael History, whom rose from the dead on his debut album on the song he would then NAME this album after… and I believe the one project of his to truly crossover to younger generations who are gradually becoming Lupe fans. T&Y is his 2nd best in my opinion, but The Cool is his most successful and highest selling album for a reason. I’m happy it went platinum

Nice to see you have T&Y number 2? I go back and forth with that album. Sometimes it’s 2 and sometimes it’s 3. I have F&L, The Cool, and then T&Y. All absolutely classics to me.

At least he knows

It is

Happy for Lupe Fiasco n I really love this Album.

I agree with him.

Lu is a GOAT. Period. Well-deserved and long due

Absolutely love the cool still bump it till this until this day. I'm liking his latest stuff too but I got to agree with him the cool was probably his best I put food and liquor at number two.

Nas & Lupe are my 1 & 1a. But I'm biased, because I'm a 3rd generation Chicagoan. However, in my humble opinion "Food & Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album Pt. 1" is his most complex, complete & thought pushing body of work.

Underrated album

Wow, The Cool is JUST now hitting platinum? True Hiphop fans are doing themselves a disservice by never hearing this album.

i agree. i used to listen to it ever day when it came out

Drogas wave n t&y are definitely his best album and shit I’d throw in drill music in Zion that shit went stupid hard

"The Cool" is a good album but my favorite Lupe album is "Food & Liquor 1 (or 2)".

It is. Was just listening to it yesterday

Classic

F&L and The Cool were his best before his flop, Laser. After Laser, Tetsuo & Youth + Drogas Wave + Drill Music in Zion are great projects

A wonderful album 💿 a real work of art ill never forget it Thank you…. The cool 😎

The Cool I still listen to it till this day and idk why ppl don’t like Lasers bt to me it’s number 3 in my book with albums from Lupe

Crazy it took so long 4 this classic 2 reach platinum

I still be playing daily

By far my favorite of his albums.

I got the album shuffled on my boombap playlist, it’s feels and sounds different when you play the album as a whole…I let it play with the tracks fading 12 secs in and out, no skips 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

How. In. THEE. Frikk. Did that JUST go platinum??? Nah somebody need to go to jail immediately

that’s wild!

I Still Got The Cool Album It was The best Album Ever Lupe Fiasco he is A Legendary Rapper Goat 🐐🐐🐐 I Love him So much

Tetsuo and youth is his best in my opinion. Perfect album if there ever was one

Did he lie though? It is his best album

I agree!!

Just went to see him perform this album in LA last week and it was even better live, long live Lupe. I think the 15th anniversary tour helped push it over the hump as well.

I’m so pissed I just found out about this! The Cool was a big inspiration for me when growing up when it came out

he came back in the same suit that he was buried in

I agree 100% The Cool is brilliance & Food & Liquor as well

I disagree that this is his best but it is my second favorite and it’s one of my favorite albums of all time

use to listen to this album when i was about 8 and my mom would play it all the time in the van , best album ever 🔥🔥

Drogas Waves is still my no. 1 album of Lupe Fiasco!

i bought his album not too long ago!!! proud to be part of history!!!

I would agree

Food and liquor is def my favorite album…I think it’s a classic

Ain't finna hold ya Lu, but T&Y is his best album

I agree

He’s one of the best!!

Top 5 album🎉 of all time

🐐

🐐🐐🐐

I agree. Bought The Cool and Reasonable Doubt.

Good logic but I think Drogas Wave is his best album. I’ve been listening to it for years now and still get impressed.

Thats Facts tho..The Cool is his best album..his other ones are good but The Cool was different different ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾

Drogas Wave, The Cool, Tetsuo & Youth, Food & Liquor, Drill Music in Zion, Food & Liquor 2, Drogas Light, Lasers.

Who has the ranking based on album sales??

It's either Tetsuo or The Cool Tbh

Fact. But it started on the one before it introducing the story of the chain

Right after comes T&Y

Didnt know Food n Liquor 2 went gold

Revenge of the nerds and enemy of the state his best mixtapes

Severus Snape: Obviously.

Tetsuo and youth is my favourite

Seems like yesterday

AND HE IS CORRECT…AN ARTIST WITH SENSE Edit:nvm this nigga wanna speak in terms of sales 😒

I’ve been going on a LP buying spree and I will definitely be picking up a couple of Lupe’s Best albums in vinyls.

I just never understood how The Cool could b better than Food & Liquor maybe one day .......

if sales weren't a part of the equation, tetsuo and youth is his best album imo.

The cool is a classic but tetsuo and youth is the shit

The Cool isn't just his best. It is the best. ❤️🖐️💀

The Cool is my most beloved Lupe Album, but I think Tetsuo and Youth is better if that makes any sense. The Cool opened my eyes to Lupe as a storytelling lyricist and a conceptual artist....but T&Y is better. Drogas Wave is damn good, too.

Tetsuo and youth is number 1

For me I think Lasers was his best album but that's just me. I also prefer Food and Liquor 2 to the other albums.

The Cool was an amazing album, how i got introduced to him. He raps from the perspective of a chessburger like wtf lol

Tetsuo & Youth

The cool is definitely his best album

I feel like he topped The Cool with Drogas WAVE

THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE.

The cool is one of the best hip Hop albums ever made

Food and liquor is his best album.

Gold watch…….

That’s not how you pronounce discography.

he a troll 😂
