    Came to this thread basically to gripe about how lackluster I found the majority of this album. It was my introduction to Lupe Fiasco but reading the past couple posts I guess he warrants another try.

    Try The Cool or Food & Liquor

    Yes, Lupe himself already admitted this is pretty much a throwaway album featuring old songs, B-sides and poppier material. Food & Liquor and The Cool are classics and Tetsuo and Youth is great as well. LASERS is poppy but MUCH better compared to DROGAS Light. Food & Liquor II is really bad.

    Listened to this while driving and i gotta say, it bangs real hard

    I think you needa go into this not expecting a Lupe Fiasco album, but rather a party album Lupe raps on (and his flows still remain impeccable)

    Also KRITs verse is perfect

    I can always be better, so I'll always try. Supporter

    Yeah... you realllly picked the wrong album to start with. Would recommend The Cool.

    Well to clarify, I listened to it as part of an effort to listen to more new albums this year and not as an introduction to Lupe Fiasco, but I don't want this album to be my sole impression of him so I'm definitely going to try either The Cool or Food & Liquor.

    if you're looking for suggested new albums to check out, there's this thread where we've been chatting about the year's output as we go: Monthy Music Catchup

    So is this supposed to be different than just DROGAS?

    I thought it was just DROGAS and Skulls coming up next--never heard of DROGAS Wave. Still pretty pumped

    i think he renamed DROGAS. cause a couple weeks back he was calling it "DROGAS DEEP" now its waves.

    Definitely more interested in this than Light, which I still enjoy a bit

    While I like the above art better overall, the minimal design works very well side by side with Light

    This is our first time hearing the album title "Drogas Wave" right?
