    The reason its awesome is because he is the ONLY mainstream.rapper keeping it real. Also the message was pretty good. F&L is a classic. The reason Lasers gets hated on is because they wanted things like the cool and f&l but he had to make lasers that way because of problems arising. I just like how he keeps it real whether making a pop type song or hip hop. Mainstream listeners like things like Lil Wayne and 2Chains so Lupe is trying to keep it real while adding elements to keep it mainstream. That's hard to do.

    Why name it as a sequel to Food and Liquor? Trying to say he's gone back to his roots or maybe coattail off that album's popularity?

    Well he said he wanted to go ”back to his roots”. I guess there is gonna be two parts to it. One for Laser type fans and others for f&l type fans. We will see. I hope its good. I have high hopes because of f&l 1.

    This. Lupe himself has said he doesn't dig the this new age weak ass, lazy hip hop production with this generic type of hi hat and Southern rap kinda production. Yet he no doubt intentionally wanted that kind of beat in as a mock parody to get the young peeps' attention. Now as to whether or not they even understand the message or learn anything from it is another story.

    I think they will understand the lyrics because they are so blunt

    His whole last album had new age production, doubt this is a parody.

    Yea, even then , its still atleast tolerable , even the uninspired ones.
    Maybe its just me tho, but I have never dug these new age production beats that constantly get regurgitated by the same few producers.

    Let's wait for release, I predict F&L II will be full of repetitive mainstream beats.

    "send lightning to your mind" all hes trying to do is create a spark in some peoples brains. its really awesome when you see where hes from, what hes done, what he believes in, and what hes trying to accomplish.
