What are the three albums of his that you think fits into that pretty good criteria?

I figured you would leave out Lasers but F&L part 2 as well?
Why?

he totally sold out + they're incredibly corny. there's a lot of corniness on all of his albums, but in the three i mentioned he's at least able to cover it up at times. on those two albums with the relatively weak production and lazy pop approach he puts himself on the chopping block.

I can understand the whole lazy pop approach for Lazers but production was never weak on any of his albums imo. They vary from decent to superb.

yeah it's my opinion but it's also the opinion of the majority of hip-hop fans lol
https://rateyourmusic.com/artist/lupe_fiasco look at that rating drop off, nobody would have expect him to come back and release an album that even relatively solid. he still dropped a bunch of cornball lines on it. "See through these circles just like Steve Urkel" "Top Cat chat, let's begin another yarn That's flying saucer cheese, or is it chicken parm'?" LMFAO
