I would consider myself a Lupe stan...he's been my favorite rapper since F&L. I listen to Lazers, regularly. It was prolly about 2 years after T&Y dropped that I was playing what is probably my 2nd favorite song on the album, Adoration of the Magi, when the chorus just smacked me in the face:

Why you ready to die, you just a baby

Ugh...I be trying to not always run to Rap Genius, so I was WILD late...but, damn...who thinks like that? So much embedded in every verse, every line.
