I definitely see your point, but it's hard for me to get behind it when that's not what the artist wanted or intended whatsoever. I've been reading a lot of interviews recently where Lupe is basically describing the process behind this album... and he hates most of these tracks. All of the auto-tune garbage and the track with John Legend (who I dig) were basically something that exec's came up to him with and said 'just rap an accessible dumbed down song on this, ok?' This isn't a Lupe Fiasco album, this album is:
Atlantic Records "Lasers" (feat. Lupe Fiasco)

Death shows up... anddd blah, blah, blah.
