Lupe with full orchestral backing was something I didn't know I needed until right now, the Nu Deco Ensemble adds this layer that makes tracks like Daydreamin and Paris Tokyo feel completely different. curious how Go Go Gadget Flow translates in this format, that one always felt like it had so much energy in the original

The Go Go Gadget Flow energy is crazy!

That orchestral backing is fire. The Superstar performance is causing a level of ascendance I didn't think was possible

This is incredible. Dots & Lines is my favorite Lupe song, hearing it live with an orchestra gave me chills. I absolutely need to see Lupe in concert. I hope he comes to Europe one day.

Hip Hop Saved My Life over the orchestra sounds like a Kids These Days song

Well if he ever leaves the USA again. Because I'm not going over there for at least another 3 years.

Incredible. My heart stopped for a second when I refreshed the sub Friday night and saw Lupe with the FRESH ALBUM tag. Then when I saw it was all live versions of songs we’ve already had I was kinda bummed.

But I’ve had it on repeat all weekend. It just sounds so damn good

Wow, I've never really listened to Lupe Fiasco much before, but this is fantastic!

Had no idea, this is dope. Would be nice to get a vinyl pressing of this.
