This particular Lupe Fiasco song appeared on one of his first big mixtapes, Fahrenheit 1/15 Part I: The Truth Is Among Us. It's easy to see why Lupe caught the attention of major labels, as his flow was mind boggling even way back when. Dropping lines like, "Make you feel it like I mispronounced 'fillet'" or "I'm back atcha, and I pack like cap backwards." Overall, I'd say the Fahrenheit mixtap
Who knew that Campbell's Soup's possibilities included undermining the traditional family unit by advertising Lesbian moms as a family "structure?" Yeah. Not me. But, it's there in The Advocate nonetheless - a brilliant, gleaming, full-page ad depicting two Lesbian partners and their child being blessed by the sampling of Campbell's Soup.
So many turning their backs on tradition
In Anticipation Of His New Album, An Unreleased Lupe Fiasco Track Hustlers and Customers From A Few Years Back SurfacesLupe Fiasco has announced that his next album will be his final album. Now, I hope that just means that it will be his last album on Atlantic, and he is not quitting the game entirely. Even though he might try to pull the the whole Jay-Z retirement, which I believe he is above tha

Usually a trip to Paris, France is quite enjoyable, but last night Lindsay Lohan had a sour taste in her mouth after being doused with flour by an animal rights activist. The “Mean Girls” actress was hanging out with her girlfriend Samantha Ronson on the famous Champs-Elysees (where Ronson had a deejaying gig) when the incident occurred.

You know I heard some talking head on TV today say that Chicago, “the second city”, is turning into America’s “first city”.

Lupe Fiasco’s “Paris, Tokyo” has received some intriguing remix treatment.
[Above: Even big rap stars have crappy Myspace photos you can exploit.]
The first is the same jazzy-Tribe-esque beat, though this time it features Pharrell suavely whisper-rapping about juice boxes, Sarah Greene singing a bridge and Q-Tip helping Lupe redeem his cred with hip hop purists. Hopefully [...]

Microfinance managers would do well to pay attention to the latest meltdown in the U.S. sub-prime mortgage market. The most recent crisis mirrors the burst sub-prime bubbles of 1998 and 1989.

We keep hearing that this year's election will be abt judgment. If so: advantage McCain. For when it comes to the surge, not only have Obama and his party been in error; they have been inflexible in error. They have been so committed to a false narrative of US defeat that they cannot acknowledge the progress that has been made on the ground.

ABS-CBN Corporation and its noontime show host Willie Revillame has issued an official statement, denying involvement in the supposed “Wowowee” party event, which was organized by Bigatin Productions and held at the Rumours nightclub in Hawaii, on May 9, 2008.
The CRS crew come together for this new joint on the upcoming N.E.R.D. LP. I’m still trying to figure out why Pusha T on this? Aside from the fact he’s probably hanging around the NEPs 24/7, I’m thinken street cred purposes.
Rap acts on television this week include:
N.E.R.D., who perform on 'The Late Show with David Letterman' on Monday.
Lupe Fiasco, who visits 'The Sauce' on Wednesday.
This young talented brother is the opening act in Kanye West's "Glow In The Dark" tour. He might be warming up the stage for Kanye but he is a superstar in his own right. He has hinted that his next album might be his last. This tuesday the tour will be making a stop at "Madison Square Garden". On wednesday night they will hit S.O.B's in Manhattan. He might not be selling like 50 cent but then again he's not a marketing ploy like fitty. I think the truest form of Hip-hop will always survive the trends and fads. True Hip-hop and creativity will outlive the commercialism ploys that invade the culture every now and then. Flo-rider is one example of that. Where has he been? The elevator cord must of snapped.
