Fab has been in the game since 01' and has only dropped 5 damn albums. Thats like an about just about every 3 years. For a short period of time cats was sayin he good be as big as Jay, and he has had his fair share of hits. His mixtapes are usually pretty good too. Is dude just the laziest artist ever? well aside from santana of course. And his last album losos way was pretty good i thought and he didnt even capitalize of that. Has his time has passed already or does he still have a shot at bein big?

    How are we calling him lazy when he's putting out mixtapes also? They still count don't they?

    His albums are inconsistent. No direction to them.

    He's lazy but he drops a mix tape or album yearly, he's pop culture rapper but heads like soul tapes best, sounds about right.....

    Thread premise itself is a little weak. Those numbers ain't bad. But if this is a ? On Fabolous Thread then I'm in.

    His live show is trash cuz he too worried about bein too cool onstage and less worried about emoting and being entertaining.

    Also his songs-for-the-? formula became transparent and played out by the time the second album rolled around.

    First time I heard 'Breathe' I was amazed. I just knew he'd seen the light and would start taking more creative risks. Only for him to follow up with that sucka ass 'Baby' single.

    Can't deny that he's a talented lyricist. But the fact that he is so talented makes it easier to ? on him when he puts out such underwhelming ? .

    Nah not tryin to bash fab, its more like if dude had so much potential why hasnt he capitalized on it with better albums and more consistency. yeah fab is talented but i think its much easier to put out a dope mixtape than a classic album. and losos way is the closest hes come to a cohesive album. Like the other dude said same with kiss but i think his had more to do with label politics.

    Maybe he's good at managing his money and doesn't need to drop albums every year.

    I wouldn't mind that he drops an album every other year if they were really dope albums but most of them aren't.

    He still cool with me though. ? and Kiss are lazy as ? though

    I notice this ever since he performed at my college homecoming concert and when i saw him performed at power 105.1 powerhouse last hyear.....'dude is too concerned being cool during live performance when compare to other artists like Wale, Nicki Minaj, Curren$y,and dipset
