Tetsuo & Youth Review by Ugly Homies

Tetsuo & Youth review by #UglyHomies

Took time to listen to Tetsuo and this is how it looks so far... 

Why Lupe Fiasco's Tetsuo & Youth proves Lupe to still be the best writer of today. 

Lupe always has concepts for his releases, Tetsuo sounds like a retire album or a closing chapter of a book.
The album has seasons in order, but is structured in reverse, Spring is a universal signal for all things new, and you note that Spring is the outro of the album, which makes sense if you listen the album from track 16 to 1 instead of 1 to 16.

Which makes TheyResurrectOverNew (TRON) track 2, which is followed by Adoration Of The Magi which elaborates the confusion a child born into this world.
Followed by a slight dedication to the Mothers in the ghettos, Madonna.
You then get Deliver, which states the sad state of living in the ghetto and not receiving the perks that suburbia receives and the state the ghetto is in generally.
Then you get Chopper, which as it is some mockery of the "floss rap" is a song expressing neighborhood dreams, also in the album on the song Prisoner 1&2, there is a narration of a prisoners who is taken from prison by a chopper, thus getting to live his "Chopper dream", that's the beauty of Lupe's writing.
After Winter, You then get No Scratches, about surviving after all the twists and turns of everything.
After No Scratches you get to Little Death, which expresses a slight death, dying while still living, not being alive.
This is followed by Body Of Work, a tale bout triumphs, which is followed by Prisoner 1&2, which I would say is portraying a message of who not to trust and who oppresses you.
After Fall, you get Dots & Lines, appreciation of all the work God has done all around, now after all the trials and tribulations, when one accepts how things are they see the beauty in creation.
The song is followed by Blur My Hands, an extend of Dots&Lines with acceptence and appreaciation.
Then you get to Mural, the last song, this is when one is about to die and they can see their life flashing right before they very eyes, the song also is layered like a Mural painting with multiple painted layers. It safe to say that this is the end.
Most rap albums in the 90s had long playing songs with bars at the end of the album where the rapper showed off the multiple syllable and metaphor, bars drop skills. 

Lupe managed to do an album backward and still have it make sense and relate to the current state, he drops a hardcore rap song as a first song, in a time where rap specially mainstream rap has dropped the bar. 

Basically from track 16 counting downwards to 1,you can see a start of life to it's ending, which also makes sense since life is a countdown to death. 

Apart from this concept, Lupe always has an underlying story within each song, which makes his projects enjoyable.
