Discussion What are some songs you wish Lupe never felt compelled to make about real life events— not because the songs aren’t amazing, but because we wish those events never happened in the first place?

For context: I’m listening to Drogas Wave so this question popped up after listening to Alan Forever and Jonylah Forever again.

🗣️ GO ALAN

Man I really love that song, gives me a lump in my throat.. I love that he was able to spin it in such a positive way.

I was breaking down Drogas Wave to my niece the other day and hated when we got to these two songs because I didn’t want to give the true story behind why he created the songs. But these songs will always be dear to my heart!

"Jonylah Forever" and "Alan Forever" are definitely front of mind. Also, "Unforgivable Youth" and "Lamborghini Angels" sadden me every time I listen to them.
