-Lupe Fiasco, American Terrorist (Food & Liquor)

American Terrorist is my all-time favorite Lupe Fiasco song, and one of my favorite songs in general. it's one of those songs where every component compliments the other. the instrumental sounds right with matthew santos' voice (and his pseudo-accent...which also works). lu's lyrics reflect on american terrorism, shit we do that fucks up our/other peoples' lives. idk how to explain it really. the song is just really awesome. of course you should NOT (by any means) get your hopes up. honestly, i'd hate to do that to anyone. though this song reeks of sheer AWESOME, that same AWESOMENESS may be about knee-high awesome to you. so, y'know...i definitely recommend you listen (that is, if you haven't already. it was on food & liquor so you're slipping already).

by the time this posted it should be in rotation on my cassette there --->

if not, it's here. (<--- you should click that).

if it's not there, then it's lost and you've missed out on a mighty dose of AWESOME.

or you can google it.
