been waiting on this to happen eventually, lupe put out a vid about how more people need to study aesop , it was something like 40 mins long, like 2 years ago
You may find it surprising for Aes and Lupe to collab, but honestly it was inevitable. Lupe is an Aes fanboy, and Aes hugely appreciates the new blood picking up the torch. I would be more surprised if this didn't happen.
I'm just finding this out. Was never tuned into podcast lupe much and only really dug into his first 3 albums. I tried to like everything after but production wise they felt off to me. Opposite for Aes. I love his more recent stuff compared to the earlier works. Glad they linked none the less.
I don’t know if it’s listening to Aes for so long or just being a fellow avoidant personality who works from home at night but Aes’s verse feels super straightforward to me. All dude wants is to get some snacks for the corner store but it’s a whole fantasy D&D quest just to get past the other humans between you and your pumpkin seeds.
Great analysis man. 👍 Everyone should listen to "the intrustmental" by lupe, super old song and this is definitely connected to it with the box scheme.
