Damn dude, I havent had cable since 8th grade...so I dont watch the games. I just check the stats and notice that Boston are on a nice run, but personally I think the team could still carry a good run but I dont feel they are going to damage in play offs. Houston are on a 3 game losing streak, are t-mac and Francis playing?

I just wanted to see your exact outlook on Boston anyway lol.

Anyway, New Orleans are going to win the playoffs this year...
Boston is good, don't get me wrong. They just haven't beat anyone worthy... all I'm sayin is, they aren't gettin rings. If they do, I'll stop eating brownies for a week, or stay away from the snappa... for a day... or somethin to punish myself. But I usually make the right call. I'm looking forward to seeing how they and Orlando play each other.

T-Mac is injured. We were soooooo close to beating the Spurs tonite without him, and we've already beat them earlier this yr. Once our backcourt starts gettin their shot back, we'll be fine. Luther costs us the game last nite, his hesitation really irks me... cuz he could be so good. Francis hasn't seen any court time, he might now depending on how long T-Mac is out. Yao has been a beast tho, and T-Mac was leading the L in PPG.

Phuck New Orleans... I hate them!!! Chris annoys me. They might win a series, I don't think they are ready to contend for rings tho... not yet.

That's on some illuminati ish...the triangle is a blatant symbol of him selling out.

P.S. I won't even respond to anyone doubtin' what I'm sayin'. Lupe is not some "nerd" hip hopper. He is a certified GANGSTA runnin' ish in the CHI. His business partner from 1st. & 15th Productions got somethin' like 10-15 years for coke charges. Lupe had to have some idea his boy was doing that type of business, if not involved . Lupe prob. made a deal with the govt. to push their agenda as long as they kept him untouched by charges. For those who don't know the Trilateralists have to push their ish through media, music & the arts; if not through them, then by elimnating each systematically. With all the b.s. the hip hop police will try to incriminate artists with, you're telling me coke charges wouldn't be an easy pin for them? He is free and clear...???:mad:

Uhhhh...im inclined to think you are a little off base. There is definately symbolism in the album cover but I don't think its what you are saying, as far as him making a deal with the govmt. Could be though, interesting take. It does look Illuminati-ish but im not sure that it references THAT instead of something in the album.

And it was heroin i thought...not coke

it was herion.. yellow and red tops i think lol..

i love how Lupe just grabbed a skateboard and everybody thought he was a cornball..

Lu the Guerilla.. that song was krazy..

hopefully this album is better then the first..

and FUK the Celtics.. watch around the All-Star game them niggas is gonna be like 12-28.. KG is gonna get tired of holdin that team, Paul Pierce is already pushin his body, played wit a back injury, they almost lost to the Heat, and Ray Allen.. is probably is gonna get tired afterawhile.. Rondo is a pretty good point guard though i'll give him that.. he got better then last year
 
That's an illuminati symbol for freemasons for those that don't know. I'm not really sure why he chose that as the album cover. I'm kind of curious to hear what he has to say on 'The Cool' now. Looks like he is going to drop a lot of knowledge.

For the squares out there that dont know what me and as20gp talking 'bout:

From copinthehood.com

"The color of the cap on the vial often becomes a sort of brand name: red tops, blacks tops, or orange tops. Other good brand names: Uptown, Bodybag, Capone, and the more generic Ready Rock....Heroin and coke is an ever popular mix. John Belushi overdosed on it. Sugar, in the form of candy bars and tasty cakes can take some of the edge of the beginnings of heroin withdrawal.
 
I hope this is an official cover because I like it. It is one of the most unique covers I have seen.
 
lmfao!!!

i got it.. i got it.. wat u need, wat u neeed... im sellin Dipset DVDs, CD's....

You have to highlight the 1st post of this thread to see the entire album cover.
 
The skeleton hand represents the guy from "The Cool" - The song about the guy who comes back by digging himself out of the grave wearing the same suit his grandfather was married in. If you watch the video for superstar hes in it, he walks down the red carpet, does a bboy pose and you can see his hand is made of bones - he is also covered in dirt and looks grimy.

I read another article that leads me to believe the other two symbols represent the streets and the game, listen to the track called: real recognize real - he breaks it down on that track. He describes the streets as an alluring whored out woman (the heart lock), and describes the game as a guy with blunts for fingers and hollowtips for teeth (the skull with smoke around it), who at the same time is married to the streets.

LOL

We'll, the folks who download it won't look like a terrorist LOL.

I bet this album will sell like a 100,000 the first week, if that cause he is REAL HIP-HOP and people don't appreaciate it.

His single is hot and its not even succesful.

I'm still buyin it!!
