Early Lupe Xmas...

Chicago native Lupe Fiasco came onto the music scene within the last few years, and has really made a name for himself. Working with artists like Jay-Z, Kanye West, N.E.R.D., Will.i.am, just to name a few. As well as a Grammy to his name.

There's been news about his next album, Lasers, releasing in 2o10. But samples of what he's been working on lately is sprouted all over the internet.

Firstly, he has a new single off of the Twilight: New Moon film entitled Solar Midnite. Great video, but for me, too much movie; vampires and werewolves galore!



Secondly, Lupe Fiasco has also released a new mixtape; Enemy of the State: A Love Story. Tracks that he's been working on. Nothing new, in terms of exclusives, but a taste of his lyrical style. And apparently, soon to be dropping another mixtape within the next few weeks. So look out of that.














An artist to definitely give time to.

till later.

Like Liquor for Punks? //

So you must be wondering about the title... "Like Liquor for Punks"

Well. This is somewhat of a mash. It was created by Heartbeat da Producer (who's also artist) and he took Daft Punk beats and laid down Lupe Fiasco and Common tracks over top. Odd combination, but it works. He used material from Food and Liquor, Lupe's first EP. and Some older tracks fro Common. It really works. For a trial; see here.

Heartbeat has also release a full length, seen on his myspace. It's new to me, but is currently being searched for personal use. From the tracks given at the site, seems legit. But my ears will be the judge.

But yeah. If you like, check it out... click above.

Anyway. It's been a long work week, and going to be a wee bit longer with being in the city Thursday-Sunday. But whatev.

Till later.
