Background

In an interview with Complex Magazine , B.o.B acknowledged the irony that he was becoming famous, for doing anti-mainstream music and called it a "blend of both worlds". When asked about the song, B.o.B said: "I wasn't like, 'I need to make this song for radio.' In my world, I'm cool because I know there are fans of music who don't listen to the radio." [4]

Reception

Complex Magazine listed "Generation Lost" as one of the "Key B.o.B Songs You Should Know." [4] About.com included the song at #32 on its subjective ranking "Top 100 Rap Songs of 2008." [5]
