Words I Never Said

One of my favorite artists is Lupe Fiasco and that is why I chose this song. It is his newest song and his second single on his next album Lasers. The first time I heard this song it instantly became of of my favorite Lupe songs. The lyrics are somewhat controversial, but powerful at the same time. For example he says:

I really think the war on terror is a bunch of bulls**t
Just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets
How much money does it take to really make a full clip
9/11 building 7 did they really pull it
Uhh, And a bunch of cover ups
Your child's future was the first to go with budget cuts
If you think that hurts then, wait here comes the uppercut
The school was garbage in the first place, thats on the up and up

Even though I may not agree with everything that Lupe said I still respect the fact the he wasn't afraid to say what he felt. That is the thing I love about music, that you can express how you feel. You can just hear his passion in this song and that is also refreshing. Most music that we hear nowadays like on the radio lacks that passion and I feel like people just do it for money instead of art. I will definitely go buy his album because if all of his songs are on the level of this one then it will be one of his best. In my opinion he is one of the few artists keeping hip-hop or music in general alive.
