Lupe Fiasco – Tetsuo & Youth (Album Stream)
It’s a Lupe album. So start there forming your opinions. But you really ought to take a listen, not just because it’s Lupe Fiasco; but add the likes of Ab-Soul, Trae Tha Truth, Famlay… And how could you not stream this (below). Out on iTunes for the copping, too. This is “Tetsuo & Youth.”
Lupe Fiasco – “Madonna” (And Other Mothers In The Hood) feat. Nikki Jean [Prod. By DJ Dahi]
Momma said, “My son never been no trouble…”
– Lupe Fiasco
Complex rhyming, rhythms, and rap epitomize “Madonna.” Not the singer… You better NOT think Lupe would be dropping the a single off his “Tetsuo & Youth” project (due out January 20, 2015) just about a pop star. This is that thoughtful, beautiful Fiasco work. Listen.

Lupe Fiasco – “Deliver” (Video)
Lupe Fiasco’s new joint ‘Deliver’ featuring Ty Dolla $ign is on regular rotation on my radio show not only because it’s dope musically & one of my favorite singles as of late, but the commentary in his lyrics highlight something as simple as a getting a pizza delivered to be a difficult task for people who live in the ghetto. It’s something that people outside of those conditions very often take for granted. Lupe artistic story of ‘Pizza delivery in the hood’ is a metaphor for many of the basic services the underprivileged just don’t have access to because of their environmental condition. Adequate employment, healthcare, housing, emergency services, transportation & so on could be synonymous with pizza delivery in the hood. I sort of let our a brief reflective chuckle after watching this video because I was that same kid back in the day picking up the pizza from a different address. Peep the powerful new clip produced MoeZ’art by & directed by Alex Nazari. Lupe’s next project, ‘Tetsuo & Youth’, due January 20, 2015
