The Hook (0:21).
Main Body of Review (2:16).
Lupe Fiasco, is a stalwart in the hip-hop game, having made music for roughly two decades now, to very good and often great results.
The Chicago MC has returned with his 8th studio album, and decided to create this latest on in an entirely different way than he has made any other album prior.
Lupe worked with a producer named, Soundtrakk, a frequent longtime collaborator of his, to create DRILL MUSIC IN ZION in just three days.
The conception of this album was inspired by the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, or appreciating the beauty in imperfection.
Lupe stated that his goal with this album was to find a balance between the "whimsy and the profound". That is very telling, and serves as a useful lens to apply to this album as a whole.
Listen on to see if stepping outside of his comfort zone unlocked some new magic for Lupe… or left me wanting more.
RMPP Preferred Cut: "MS. MURAL"
