Here are 2 left-over Lasers promo clips that weren't released. You might remember the vignettes that were used during Lupe's Remember 2 Smile concert in Chicago 3 years ago, that's where those 2 clips come from. Looking back at it now, you can tell that Lasers was going in a whole nother direction back then.
Check out the 2nd one after the jump!
Oh gosh... Why is this man so bloody beautiful *swoon*
ReplyDeletedamn...what could have been! :(
ReplyDeleteYeah! beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLupe needs to realise he'll never "start revolutions" with his music. That's the only thing about Lupe I don't like; the ridiculous self-aggrandising he indulges in. It's just music; it makes us happy, or sad, or makes us think. It doesn't need to change the world; it just needs to change us. That's way more beautiful.
ReplyDelete^^
ReplyDeleteYou just said it "makes us think", and it "just needs to change us". Well thats all Lupe wants. He just wants to make one person think and one person change. maybe that person will change the world ?
I'm so pissed at Atlantic now, Lupe was/is a lyrical genius. So a company like that can smash his creativity and put all that talent away, just to make more money.
ReplyDeleteThey'd still make money, because he is the best rapper of today, BUT they wanted to make MORE money, no matter what. Just imagine how it must be for Lu. He can't be musically free and express himself. Has to do songs with bullshit lyrics and wack beats. But wait, he has the best fans in the world, who followed him from the early days and mixtapes and will support him. WRONG, they bash him, scrutinize him and call him a sellout. Must be really tough for a guy and I hope he finds some peace.
See this is what I've been saying for the looooooongest time. People call LASERS haters "lupe haters" or "not real fans" but that isn't the case at all.
ReplyDeleteWe know what Lupe is all about. Lasers was originally suppose to be based around the LASERS Manifesto, but Atlantic wanted the album that YOU Lasers lovers love and defend right now.
Lasers was suppose to be filled with tracks like I'm Beamin and Shining Down, but Atlantic wanted pop crap.
I have no problems with people that like LASERS, I just hate those that act like people that don't like Lasers are not real fans" or are just hating on it because they can't let go of the past or something.
Lasers was suppose to be another classic album under Lupe's belt, but unfortunately Atlantic got in the way...
Anyway can't wait for
FNL2:TGARA!
Can someone please upload theses to youtube? I wanna share and show my friends. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLol @ that stupid anon :D
ReplyDeleteI don't even want to rebuke you... That's how ludicrous your statement was
Skate on :)
If Lasers had stayed in the direction it was going, I think a lot lives would have been inspired at a much more then just artistic and intellectual level. These videos give me goose bumps. The ghost of what could have been. I really wish he would drop a unreleased version of Lasers.
ReplyDeleteI love his heart, love his mind, love his words, love this man!
ReplyDeleteGod Bless You Lupe! We appreciate all you do - Word!
He is very creative! Love his craft! Very beautiful no one can ever top that. He's very deep, reach the soul of people. That's what I love about him, us fans are truly bless to have a Lupe.
