Hip Hop Wednesday: Volume 9: Lupe Fiasco

41 days from now, the hip hop game will once again change. If you don't know the significance of this date, you will on March 8th.



Without being any more vague about the subject, it is the release of Lupe Fiasco's next album, We Are Lasers. An album that had dashing hopes of ever seeing a store shelf (or a virtual one nowadays), was finally given the go ahead for release after a strong fan petition. He is at the top of the game, this could be conceived as an opinion but when it's such a widespread opinion it may as well be factual. It's not just the production level or the beats, it's the topics on which he chooses to speak about.

In the song I have selected make sure to pay attention the lyrics and don't mind the first 15 seconds of this video, the song starts right after that.

41 days from now, hope will be restored.
