gotta admit, and thanks to FV he made himself a lil circlejerk of the holy guardians of hip hop
I think we can all agree Hopsin has the potential to be a great MC but is completely wasting it. His instrumentals are alright but that's not to say he hasn't got quite a few shit ones.

Cruel summer is great. Check out Big Seans Detroit mixtape too, it's actually pretty good (wasn't a fan of his debut album) 2012 has been a good year for hip hop and theres still more to come
Control System is probably the Hip-Hop album of the year for me.

[QUOTE=Pedro the Fuzzy;37729095] food and liquor 2. listening to it right now.[/QUOTE] How's it sounding so far?
I really like it. I underrated Lupe a lot. I went back and listened to The Cool and the original F&L and I find F&L2 being very similar to both of those albums.
I don't think I've ever really liked Lupe Fiasco, but I'm not sure I've really heard him that much either, I'm going to check him out again.
I'm listening to FNL2 right now. It's really fucking good.
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ab_IMDQ2kE[/media] clicked on this because it seemed funny stayed cos it owned Reminds me a lot of Das Racist who are one of the best rap groups of recent years so you know its good
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKDKUqD3Mh4[/media] if Asher's new music is as good as this...
Lupe Fiasco is pretty cool and the new album is good, one of the only nitpicks I have is that he preaches about God a little too much.
Simply the best rap song i've ever heard. None of that "drugz money cars" but it actually has amazing lyrics, and an awesome beat. [video=youtube;TnwD_aNEi-s]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnwD_aNEi-s[/video]
