Lupe Fiasco - PeekYou Blog - Revolutionary People Search Technology
After recently declaring his retirement from music, Lupe Fiasco has announced a new album DROGAS Light. On Twitter, Lupe shared the release date—February 10—and what looks like cover art. See the tweet below. Pitchfork has reached out to representatives for Lupe Fiasco to comment. His last album was 2015’s Tetsuo & Youth.
(AllHipHop News) Apparently, rapper Lupe Fiasco is done with music.
The rapper announced that he was cancelling all three of his upcoming albums, and giving up the microphone.
Lupe has been involved in a mild controversy, over lyrics contained in his latest song “N.E.R.D.,” which was a freestyle over J. Cole’s song “Everybody Dies.”
Yesterday, (December 12) Lupe was involved in a public spat with DJBooth.com, which called the art the Chicago MC out over what they considered antisemitic lyrics in the song.
According to Lupe, Soundcloud even removed “N.E.R.D.,” claiming the freestyle was taken down because of hate speech.
Last night, Lupe Fiasco posted a new track to SoundCloud called “N.E.R.D.,” which features the instrumental from J. Cole’s new track “Everybody Dies.” The song features this line: “Artists gettin’ robbed for their publishing/By dirty Jewish execs who think that it’s alms from the covenant.” After spending the night sparring with fans on Twitter, arguing that the line wasn’t anti-Semitic, he made a broad announcement this morning: “Yo Lupe fans it’s been fun and I hope you’ve had fun. I’m officially not releasing anymore music. Albums cancelled.” He also set his Twitter account to private.
Lupe also said that “N.E.R.D.” had been removed from SoundCloud for “hate speech,” but the song still appears to be streaming here. Find the track…
