    You’re the first to really get the Gracie/Ken Shamrock bar. Awesome reaction. Lupe is not easy. Go read the Rolling Stone interview now that you did the reaction cause Lupe, Soundtrakk and Chill all talk about each song.

    He did mention he stopped writing his bars years ago, and he's been using a punch-in freestyle method to record his latest albums, which gives it that freestyle feel. 🔥🔥🔥

    If you liked the Philly shell refernce you should check out "No Rest For The Wicked" by Ransom. It Soooo underrated. The first track is boxing themed, and you'd love it!

    The chorus of Samurai is from a voicemail that Amy left for Remi saying that she was writing with-tang style battle raps and if anyone messed with her she would mess them up like a samurai

    First one I’ve seen really appreciate not only the lyrical content but the music making ability Lupe displayed here especially on Cake. It feels like a mix between when he made more poppy hits. But he didn’t lose a step lyrically. And THAT? Is when you create TIMELESS records
    When it satisfies BOTH sides. And it is an incredibly underrated part of making music in Hip Hop

    Philly shell bar, I know you probably have heard of Ransom's "The hawk" song barfest of just nothing but boxing references so maybe you missed this track and cant be the first time hearing Philly shell bar.

    Nodody's fuckin with Lupe right now. It feels like he fine-tuned his flows and cadence from King Nas & Timbuk2 Day and made the rhyme schemes more complex but synced with the beat patterns.

    Amy winehouse left a voicemail to one of producers saying that she cant get these little battle raps out of her head and that she planned to make some rap songs.
    In the bible the tongue is compared to a sword and so lupe is comparing being an elite lyricist with being a samurai which you know he practices his martial arts. Its def a layered but dope concept.

      Boys just can't listen to Top Tier lyricism without forcing KDot into the situation. There is a whole metaphorical concept to the entire Album and it has *nothing* to do with fugin Kendrick.
