Vibe Mag included Lupe in a list called "The 10 Most Disappointing Rappers of 2010." They put him on position 9, read their reasoning below and my opinion about it after that.
The Case: Going into 2009, Lupe Fiasco became an underground legend of sorts. With two critically acclaimed and rap blog approved albums under his belt, Chi-Town’s nerd with swag promised a final three disc opus. As time progressed, Lupe continued to change his plans and sight problems with his recording home Atlantic Records as the main source for the album’s delay.
The Verdict: With a sole mixtape release last November (Enemy of the State), Lupe stans continue to wait on a full length album going on 3 years. Now twitter rants about rap blogs contributing to the unauthorized piracy and label politics continuing to delay his now shortened, single disc album. In reality, his reluctant behavior has transformed Lupe into the rap version of the Boy Who Cried Wolf.
So dear Vibe Mag editor, you put someone on a list of Disappointing Rappers cause he hasn't put an album out in 3 years which wasn't even his own fault in the most parts? How lame is that. The reason behind the 3 disc album not being released was his label not being cool with it and we don't even have to talk about the whole Atlantic/360 Deal/Lasers situation anymore...
Besides that, if he'd want to, which is not the case, he could even wait 5 years between releases like some rock groups do and no one could do anything against it cause it's up to him and his label.
Besides that, he's entitled to his own opinion and free to talk about whatever he wants to on his Twitter, like everyone else does. No need to critize him for this either. If you don't like it, that's your problem. I usually don't post about bullshit like this to stay out of it, but this right here is just stupid on Vibe's part and needs to be addressed.
