Windy City Times Interview with Lupe Fiasco



"WCT: I love your song “Hip Hop Saved my Life.” What inspired it?

LF: When I did that song a year and half ago, Hip Hop was getting a lot of bad press. I wanted to put a statement out there that Hip Hop saves a lot of people. Sometimes that's all people have got.

WCT: How did you get involved with the tour?

LF: Coca-cola invited me out. This gave me an opportunity to perform my music for a large section of my fan, which are underage kids and teenagers. I have done this venue before. This group can't come to the venues that are 18 and over.

WCT: Do you have other tours planned for the future?

LF: I am putting together a big college tour for the fall. Then I am going back overseas."
