"Shining Down" is one of my favorite songs to come out in the last few months. It seems that Lupe is not holding the fact that it leaked against the song -- I think that's wise, I can't think of any reason why someone might do that, but it felt like a worthy comment to make a moment ago, oh well... Anyway, yeah, so watch Loop-Loop appear out of a puff of smoke at Summerfest 2009 in Milwaukee t...

As you all saw, the leaked and apparently unfinished version of this song surfaced not too long ago. We now have word the official single from Lupe’s upcoming album will be released on July 7th. Theres a 30 second clip of the full version. DOWNLOAD: Lupe Fiasco - Shining Down (Snippet)
According to Amazon, the official single from Lupe’s upcoming album will be released on July 7th. We posted an unfinished version that was later taken down per request from FNF. They have a 30 second snippet on the page as well if you’d like to check it out. Shouts to LupEND for the heads up. [...]
Now I really regret not making the short trip to America's Drunkest City for Summerfest. Hit up The LupEND Blog for additional footage of Lupe paying homage to Michael Jackson.
Dope.Seriously.Lupe’s first single leaked off We are Lasers. He’s already got his fans all in a tizzy with this track. Working with Matthew Santos (”Superstar”) again, the sample is catchy and dark, and Lupe’s verses are sick as always. A few lines of Lupe’s freestyles deliver more content and meaning than an entire LP [...]
Only a couple of nights after Beck opened the brand new Club Nokia in downtown Los Angeles, Lupe Fiasco graced our mortal souls for a spectacular, sold out show. This was my fifth time seeing Lupe (so my expectations weren't too high on seeing something new and spectacular), but something was different about this show. [...]
Spotted at The LupE.N.D. which is a blog run by Lupe fans. Check it out. I'm really impressed with the amount of content they post and hope to see more fan blogs like this. [For the whole story visit Xplosive World]

Big Halloween weekend in Chicago. Lupe Fiasco is playing tonight at the Congress Theater and The Rapture are at the Debonair Social Club both I am sure are worth the price of admission. Hip hop acts Ill Bill and Verbal Kent will be rhyming over at Subterranean . Tomorrow night Black Moth Super Rainbow will be playing at Abbey Pub and indie rock darling Conor Oberst And The Mystic Valley Band ...
With a gang of rappers from Lil Wayne to Kanye West to Lupe Fiasco all taking large steps towards creating a *snicker* rock/pop career for themselves, it got me thinking about who we as hip-hop enthusiasts might want to poach from the world of guitar heroes to try and make a go of it on the m-i-c. I think there may be some hidden talent that is just waiting to be exploited and that could ult...
This is a hot performance by Lupe, despite the sub-par video quality. The audio is what's really good and you can get that by clicking right here. Talented MC's Freestyling Live Band Playing Classic Beats= Xplosive's Favorite Live Show Spotted at 2DB:
