According to an article posted on Sohh.com, Lupe Fiasco has taken to the Twitter to address the leak to his upcoming third album titled Lasers. Many of his loyal fans has expressed negative opinions of the album, they feel that it is some of the worst material that the Rap star has ever released. Lupe is an artist that has frequently been compared to musicians such as Kanye West and Andre 300 due to his alternative lyrics, they generally focus on introspective themes that stay away from common topics such as drugs and violence. While Lupe has successfully sold millions of records in the past, this album is void of a hit such as Superstar. His 2007 hit became one of the most popular Rap songs released during that year, but Lasers has no such track, this will significantly impact the sales of the album. In hopes to minimizing the online leaks, Lupe has decided to release tracks to fans through Twitter. However, this does very little to change the fact that many fans of this Rap star are simply not happy with the content that is included on this upcoming album.

The Lasers includes 14 tracks in total with featured artists including Matthew Santos, John Legend, Sarah Green, Skylar Grey, Trey Songz and others. The biggest problem that a fan will find with this album is a lack of lyrical content that can be found on his previous releases. Additionally, it seems that the massive amount of artrists featured on the album track away from the experience that a fan will receive when listening to this album. While Lasers has been eagerly anticipated for some time, it is this expectation of great content that has resulted in a let down for many fans. Most of the complaints that can be found all over Internet forums seem to be aimed at expressing the fact that the content falls short of previous releases such as The Cool . However, if you are just discovering this artist, you may find that this album offers something unique and different from what you have been listening to. Additionally, you may want to consider some of the older material released by this artist. You can pick up some of the content from Amazon for $13 and under. Great music is something many people search for, adding this artist to your library may be a change that you welcome.
