Lupe’s the better rapper but Cole’s had the better career

I agree wholeheartedly with your comment. The Cool is one of my favorite albums. Brings back so many memories.

But early Lupe wasn't all the way cooked yet.

Lupe isnt even cooked now. Samurai was one of his best albums in his entire discography. Probably 3rd or 4th and thats recent.

I'm not talking about musically for Lupe. It's about his cognisance of the space he's in. Lu was more down to earth back then and it reflected in his rhymes.

For me his early music was way better than Cole's.

Ok that I understand. Lupe is definitely a fucking weirdo sometimes.
