First 2 albums r some of the best hip hop ever

The fact we can make a album just for the story line for the coolest is dope af to me. Go through all his mixtapes & albums and put together all the songs and it would be a whole project. This guy is a fucking genius. I’m surprised no one hasn’t made a playlist for it on KZread

Lupe is in my top 5 of all time

I can't remember but I think it was on Joe Budden's podcast that the gang were arguing how "creating an album" is a lost art in music today. Their reasoning behind it, which is true, is that most artists record 50-100 songs and then throw their favorite 10-12 together with no regard for theme or structure. What would've been best is if they picked their strongest 3 or 4 songs as singles and then have every other song serve as a compliment to it, not filler. What I find interesting and coincidental about "The Cool" album is that most of the singles / best songs happened to be the first set of songs Lupe recorded which made it super easy for him to build around it. I bought this album in high school when it dropped and it was truly a masterpiece written from start to finish.

That makes no sense. How is choosing the best 10-12 out of 50-100 results into filler? How would choosing only the best 3-4 *singles* and make *songs* around them? Wouldn’t those just be fillers?

@@Joela393 thats not what i said. what i said was: 10 - 12 songs from 100 songs = a project that sounds disjointed 4 best songs + supportive songs = cohesive album A filler track is a throwaway song with no purpose n replay value. A supportive song is a song whose quality matches the single but fleshes out a diff aspect of the theme of the album. Example: "superstar" - single, "the coolest" - support

The Cool and Tetsuo and Youth is the illest albums of all time

Your right. The storytelling and writing is great! The MYH story is such a heavy one. Tetsuo & Youth's youth tale is great as well!

BEST: F&L 1, The Cool, Testuo & Youth, Drogas WAVE WORST: F&L 2, Lasers, Drogas Light (I actually love this album becuz its trap Lupe but I see why others dont)

one of the most incredible album of all time

Listening to "put you on game" repeatedly brought me here tonight. I remember this interview before i went and saw him at the HOB in Chicago. Such a great album!!!

Still the best album ever!

Love it.. Fand my favorite this is a CLOSE second.. Best tracks, goldwatch, and paris tokyo

Thank you for posting this

I always thought the Cool was a story inside a story. It was like, he was telling the story of Michael Young and where his head was at during the making of the album. It is brilliant.

Your right. I think he's avoiding talking about it

Those first two albums definitely solidified its place in Hip-Hop. Drogas and Youth are also masterpieces ❤

the 2005-2008 Lupe Was Hungry and A Lyrical Genius, since then hes never been the same

True, T&Y is definiatly one of his best, a fantastic outing, but he has severly shitted on his discography since then. He has as many bad/mediocre albums as good by now

I remember him saying that he had plans to make a horror-themed radio program and comic book based off the album. Did he ever do so?

Hmmmm is it possible that Lupe's "The Cool" song and album influenced Gasper Noe's "Enter The Void" movie? 🤔

😻😻😻

Are these from the promo copy of the CD?

❤️‍🔥

I actually named the album the cool on Wikipedia and lupe took that
