Lupe Fiasco - This Is for My N*ggas
Artist: Lupe Fiasco
Producer: Unknown
Album: Unreleased
Label: First&Fifteenth/Atlantic
One of the most exciting inclusions on the Stimulus Package DJ Drama and DJ Moondawg cooked up last May was This Is For My N*ggas, a previously-unreleased record from Chi-town great Lupe Fiasco‘s vault. As it turns out, though, those who downloaded the street album didn’t get the whole story—delivered personally by Moondawg and featured first at DJBooth.net, this version of the record has been scrubbed clean of tags and comes complete with a final verse cut from the mixtape version. Over an unknown beatsmith’s chipmunk-soul instrumental (sampled from Millie Jones’ If It’s Wrong to Love You (I Don’t Want to Be Right), Fiasco takes it back for all his fans, delivering plenty of the poetically vivid, not-quite-punchline lyricism that’s become his trademark—how many other rappers can free-associate their way from “Parental Advisory” stickers to Billy Crystal to a pistol-packing Vishnu in the span of about three seconds, while still making sense to the attentive listener? Lupe’s third studio album, Lasers, has yet to receive a solid release date, but in the meantime, fans should keep their eyes on Moondawg—the Chi-town DJ plans to include several more never-before-heard Lupe cuts on forthcoming mixtapes.

Great track from Lupe! Lovin' the production and Lupe brings fire lyrically, as always. Lupe kills almost every track he's on. I'm definitely gonna be watchin for more unreleased Lupe, and I know I'm gonna buy Lasers when it comes out!

I really like this style of Lupe, even though I am a fan of all of Lupe's styles. I came across this style when I heard "Coulda Been". This joint reminds me of "Cold World", another unreleased joint that surfaced on a mixtape that I actually hosted in 2008 called "Overlooked: Vol. 1 & 2".
Good joint. |

I am biased as well, and Lupe just killed the Summerfest stage up here in the Mil. He just comes wit so much passion and energy that is crazy to witness in person. He is a poet and a rockstar.
It is cool to hear him over this type of production, and he doesn't disappoint. This doesn't quite sound like album material from Lupe, which is the reason it isn't, and I'll be expecting much more in the coming months from the Chi-city superstar. It is well deserving of rotation status, tho. |
