Album Review: Lupe Fiasco - Tetsuo And Youth

Fiasco is a man with a lot to say and does a damn fine job on Tetsuo And Youth getting all his thoughts and feelings out.

There are a few marathon songs – Mural clocks in at 8:48, while collab-fest Chopper hits 9:32. Tracks like this drag on a bit, but Fiasco’s flow and intent are on point throughout the entire record. He gives Aussie Guy Sebastian more cred on Blur My Hands, while Body Of Work and Little Death are standouts. A solid fifth album from one of modern rap’s most important voices.
