[DISCUSSION] Lupe Fiasco - Friend of the People (10 years)

Posted: 24 Nov 2021 01:26 PM PST

Cover

Tracklist

When Lupe Fiasco released his mixtape Enemy of the State on Thanksgiving Day 2009, while in the mix of label drama with Atlantic around the release of Lasers, he announced the complimentary mixtape Friend of the People would come out that Christmas, but was set aside for his Mount Kilimanjaro voyage to raise awareness of the global water crisis, in which he successfully completed.

Lupe would go on to release it in Thanksgiving Day 2011, months after the release of Lasers. While Enemy of the State sae Lupe spitting over beats from Hov, Diddy, Lil Wayne, Slaughterhouse, The Clipse and Travis Porter, he switched it up on Frien of the People spitting over M83, Justice, John Coltrane, Ellie Goulding and Skrillex.

Consequnce of Sound said: While he doesn't nail it in each track, Lupe Fiasco's daring enough to explore realms your regular chain-swinging rapper is not. Who else out there could get away with both an M83 sample ("The End of the World!") and a John Coltrane sample ("Life, Death and Love from San Francisco") and pull it off?

Friend of the People included the classic barfest SLR and the creative Double Burger with Cheese where he references a lot of the hood movies he grew up on.

Posted: 24 Nov 2021 10:00 AM PST

First Born is the first studio album by American hip hop duo Eyedea & Abilities. It was released on Rhymesayers Entertainment on October 23, 2001.

Nathan Rabin of The A.V. Club said: "The album's high-minded excursions into the realm of being and nothingness periodically lurch into navel-gazing self-parody, but Eyedea's passionate delivery and lyrical skills keep the disc grounded."[2]#citenote-avclub-2) Brad Haywood of Pitchfork) gave the album a 7.9 out of 10, saying, "[Eyedea's] rhymes are dense, literate, focused, often surprising and always amusing."[[4]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Born(Eyedea_%26_Abilities_album)#cite_note-pitchfork-4)

In 2015, HipHopDX included it on the "30 Best Underground Hip Hop Albums Since 2000" list.[5]#cite_note-5)

[DISCUSSION] CunninLynguists - Will Rap for Food (20 Years Later)

Posted: 23 Nov 2021 10:00 AM PST

Will Rap for Food is the debut album by southern hip hop group CunninLynguists, at the time only consisting of Deacon the Villain and Kno). It was released October 2001 on Urban Aces. The album is mostly produced by Kno, with contributions from Celph Titled and Deacon the Villain, respectively, on the singles "So Live!" and "616 Rewind", which was released via Buds Distribution.[4] Will Rap for Food was re-issued in 2005 by Freschest Records.[5]

The album's title derives from a line from a 2002 Kashal Tee song, "I'm All This", in which he says: "So fuck the commercial tracks you be doin' - A brother got to eat - Yeah? Why don't you rap for food then?" It is played in the intro of "Lynguistics" and Kashal Tee is also featured on the song "616 Rewind".[citation needed] In addition, the quotation could be rooted back to the 2000 album of Guru, Jazzmatazz vol.3 where, in the song "Who's There?", a featuring with Les Nubians, he says: "These distraught thoughts of a young man in a rooming house, This messed up life, this poverty, he could do without, But what options does he have when all hope is gone? A brother gotta eat, plus all the Henny and all the smoke is gone, All it takes is one quick stick".[6]
