During a concert this weekend, Lupe Fiasco revealed that he, Kanye West and Pharrell will be shooting a music video on Wednesday. The group is collectively known as CRS, or Child Rebel Soldiers and has previously released a few teaser tracks last year. I remember reading an interview with Lupe Fiasco where he stated once all three group members were done touring, the CRS album would come to life. Kanye West's "Glow In The Dark Tour" wraps this summer, and with the group s... MORE

BBC Radio host Tim Westwood is a jerk. Most of his listeners know it, so I just want to put that out there before you watch this video. He tries to be hip and tries to be down with the hip hop scene, but he's so totally uncool and it comes out every time he opens his mouth. He's like a suburban white dad who wants the local thugs to like him. Nonetheless, somebody pays him a lot of money to do his job and thus he gets a lot of big name stars on his show. His hip hop r... MORE

Lupe gave a pretty good interview with Tim Westwood over in London this week. No new album or song news is revealed, but they have a candid chat about Lupe's place in hip hop. Why he doesn't wear jewelry, the inspiration behind "Hip Hop Saved My Life", and what he thinks of sippin lean.

Lupe has been releasing videos from "The Cool" for just about six months now, which is a rarity in today's climate. Most artists are only shooting one or two videos to keep costs down. "Hip Hop Saved My Life" featuring Nikki Jean is a GREAT song and the video captures the essence perfectly.
Maybe Lupe is actually serious about the next album being his last, and wants to make sure he leaves behind a healthy catalog of vids. But that's just me thinking out loud.

Real talk, I haven't been around to chat with y'all about the music we've been listening to or missing due to life's constant interruptions. Oh, to be a shut-in... Anyway, I stumbled over this Lupe vid, and wondered what y'all thought about his comments on racism and leaders. No biggie. I find his candor really interesting just because few people actually have enough nerve to be realistic. I forgot who said it, but I'll agree: Lupe is a genius (musically). Basically... MORE

" . . . All in't together, FREE CHILL! . . . " Lupe's got it goin on with this track. The album itself is off the chain, but the beat AND lyrics on 'Paris, Tokyo' makes me feel his music so much more, ya dig? Just listen and you'll probably agree.

8.5 out of 10 StarsThe Good: "Go Go Gadget Flow," "Gotta Eat," and "Little Soldiers" are excellent songs, must-downloads.The Bad: Production is mediocre in some spots. Lupe Fiasco has been pegged as a artist with potential to become the next big thing in hip hop. His debut album, Food & Liquor, was a huge critical success and built a large following of devotees, though sometimes it seems as if those two things can do more harm than good. Despite the huge buzz, critical p... MORE

Lupe Fiasco delivered a great performance of "Superstar" alongside Matthew Santos on last night's Late Show With David Letterman. It was Dave's first night back after a two month layoff due to the writer's strike. I don't know about you guys but I was getting sick of the re-runs... Check out the performance below.

Lupe Fiasco dropped his sophomore release, The Cool just today and already the positive reviews are rolling in. While Amanda Diva is warming the air with her smooth sounds this week, Lupe is freezing out the competition. All the silliness that has surrounded his rep in the last few months is forgotten the instant the music starts. Check out these three diverse reviews of The Cool: Art of Rhyme gave it a 4.3 out of 5RWD Mag gave it a 5 out of 5Washington Post review Lu... MORE
