lupe fiasco

“I was plotting on doing the follow-up to that,” Lupe said. “Simply because [Enemy of the State] was short. And I felt like it was space to do another one. I was gonna do another one called Friend to the People, but I started to get wind that people had songs they shouldn’t have had. I was like, ‘This is just gonna open the floodgates if I come out with another record. I know these dudes are threatening to leak records and do crazy stuff.’ Sometimes I feel there may be too much Lupe music out there — whether it be old stuff or new stuff or freestyles. I don’t want to have a ton of music sitting out. I made the decision to fall back from it and really focus on the climb. We were a couple of weeks away from doing that.”

“Earlier this evening, Lupeee phoned into Greg Street’s radio show on V-103 in Atlanta to talk about how he maintained relevancy in the game with no album since ‘07. He also hopes to announce the release date for Lasers within a few weeks and reveals that he recorded four tracks with the Neptunes, but only two made the album.”

“The thrill of conquering your fears especially in such a physically and mentally taxing environment can’t really be done justice in words.”—Lupe Fiasco


Now its back to work Lupe!

Circuit City bonus track off Lu’s 2007 release The Cool. Same verses and same beat but Trey handles the hook. Too be honest there isn’t really much difference at all, but if any of ya’ll are like me… your harddrive is full of alternate/original/unfinished versions of tracks as they are always cool to check out from time to time.

DOWNLOAD: Lupe Fiasco – Blackout f. Trey Songz

“Last night, Lupe typed a few bars over at Okayplayer’s ”Jay Electronica vs. Lupe Fiasco Pt.2” message board. Pretty ill choice of words. Somebody, put a beat on.

Coexist, the devils in the dealer, the poltergiest is in the pokerchips,
Game changer, I practice Iron Swan Song, Tiger Palm & Cobra Fist,
Go by many slang name’s and sobriquets,
Asking me how many lines is in my mind is like asking how many fish can the ocean fit,
I set out to do the impossible like an open fist, Achieve the unbelievable like throwing Open Pit,
The last line refers to flying saucers, A rhyming Chaucer who came from District 9 but now he’s flying over it
Battle Jay Elect? Who has the foolhardy audacity to utter this?
I look at him like a high minded brother from another and when we finally encounter with dual flows overdosed on over-the-counter’s its gone be like Mulder meets the Mothership,
Friend Of The People, Fuck the government…”

Happy Thanxgiving!

LMFAO!!!!

“Although my piece was a bit more extensive, we roughly cover the same topics: the Remember 2 Smile concert, his recent leaks (which came seemingly out of nowhere), not making MTV Hottest MCs List, and the death of Derrion Albert. And the LOL of the day comes when UB asks Lupe if Kanye West is hiding out in India. Pow!” – Andrew (of FakeShoreDrive)
