Guess who's on third/Lupe steal like Lupin the third/
That opening line hooked me to Lupe after that verse I knew he was dope & we are from the same side of town so I looked further into him and found out this is the same guy who made Kick, Push this is while it was making rounds in Chicago before it was all over MTV. Then I found out he was hosting my cousin Nikki Lynette's Hard Candy mixtape and I was like he is dope & cool.... Finally I got my hand's on the Farenheit Mixtapes and the Chi-Town Guevera mixtapes and I was gone. June 2006 came & I was pissed by the leak. September came and as soon as I listened to Food & Liquor I was blown away. Being a huge Nas fan I thought no album could touch Illmatic, It Was Written, or Stillmatic. I had to admit I was wrong. Best album ever. I was dissapointed in the videos for F&L though. I thought they played up the nerd thing too much. Then I saw Superstar. This dude is truly my idol so 4give the long ass paragraph. In short I am the proud purchaseer of 5 copies of Food & Liquor and 21 copies of "The Cool" including an autograhped copy and Special Edition copy with bonus disc from the Halloween House Of Blues Show in Chicago (which i attended). And as an faithful of the FNF Army I have given some of the 21 copies of "The Cool" to people who otherwise would have used the Limewire Devil to hear Mr. Fiasco spit. Those efforts have brought him two fans of 55 yrs plus (my 61 year old father and my godfather) as well as ex convicts and a slew of others.
And if I could steal from Lu it would be the platform he has to express his views to the world... Oh and the Superstar Jacket.....
Sorry it was so long.....
Thats Whatsup!!!
You Got Some of Us Beat...
You are Definitely Lu's # 1 Fan of the Moment
To everyone else who entered...
Dont get down and out...You still have a chance!
And if you have not entered...DO IT!!!

Lupe on Blues and Soul Magazine
"The new single `Paris, Tokyo`
“I love Paris, I love Tokyo… And what inspired me to write the song was that between `Food And Liquor` and this album we travelled EVERYWHERE`- multiple countries, multiple towns, multiple tours. So I just developed a knack and a love for touring, even if I didn`t want to do it! You know, despite the lyrical wear and tear it has on your body - particularly with the different climates - just by force I had to fall in love with it! And of course another side to it all is, when you travel, you leave people behind. So I actually wrote the song for my girl, `cause I`d be gone so much we`d go for two months at a time without seeing each other. So it`s basically her song. Just to let her know that, wherever I go, she comes with me - even if it is just mentally or in spirit.”"

Lupe Fiasco on The Guardian
This is old but who cares :)
"The skinny guy standing in the doorway dressed in socks, terry towelling dressing gown and bookish glasses doesn't look much like a famous recording artist. A cursory glance around his Manhattan hotel room only reiterates this; there's no entourage, the only paraphernalia is cough and cold-related and the TV is tuned to a documentary on deep-sea diving. It wouldn't be unfair to surmise that Lupe Fiasco is a bit of a geek. Not that he'd care. "I just do me. I don't chase the status quo," shrugs the practising Muslim who doesn't partake in drugs, drink or groupies. "I don't try and be anything I'm not. Yeah, I was a nerd in school; I wasn't trying to be no big gangster or drug pusher," he says before listing chess, Transformers, karate and shortwave radio as four of his childhood interests."

RIP to Orish from 702!
“Orish Grinstead of the R&B group 702 passed away this Sunday from kidney failure. The singer was the twin-sister of Irish, and one of three members of the Las Vegas-based group who spawned R&B hits such as ‘Steelo’ and ‘Get It Together’ back in the late 90s. She was only 27.”

DETROT MAN KILLED IN RAP BATTLE
DETROIT -- Police are looking for a Westland man who killed a rapper this week after taking offense to something said during a rap contest.
The incident happened Monday in a home located in the 180000 block of Bradford on the city's east side. Police say there was a rap battle, in which participants come up with insulting rhymes aimed at their competitors.
Police say 28-year-old Antoine Tramble became angry at something a 27-year-old rapper said, so he left the home and then returned with a gun. Tramble opened fire, killing the man, police said. The victim's name has not been released.
Tramble then fled the home and escaped in a blue conversion van, investigators said.
Anyone with information is being asked to contact Detroit Police Homicide at (313) 596-2260; or the anonymous Crime Stoppers hot line at (800) SPEAK-UP.

Lupe Fiasco Interview with DJ Semtex
"How you feeling about the forth-coming Glow in The Dark tour?
I feel good, I feel upbeat, I’m more excited for my artists to see it I’ve got a very talented roster Matthew Santos, Sarah Green Nikki Jean, these new kids I just picked up He Say She Say, of course Gemstones for them to get that opportunity to get on that stage and to go up there and actually perform something that is a hit that they are responsible for being a hit or are associated with it being a hit, more than it just being a homie look for them to take those hits and propel their careers. I’m more exicted to put them on and see how they are gonna perform, when they go out to do a verse on such and such or a hook on something. But you know I’m happy to be around the big NERD I’m a big fan
You got Rhianna on the bill, NERD, Kanye West.
You know what that means, you got CRS on the bill!!
It’s a wonderful line up, it should be a good tour its already sold out every week they add another few dates.
What joints are you looking forward to performing?
‘Hello, Goodbye’ – we’re gonna use this tour to break out some of the more eclectic records on the album – we’ve put out a lot of the pop stuff with ‘Paris Tokyo’ being the next single in the US but we definitely want to push the more eclectic side – the 2nd half of the album."

Just A Reminder
If you entered into the Lupe Fiasco at SOBs contest, you need to CHECK YOUR EMAIL. I've already let down a couple of people who did not check their email in time and therefore I had to inform them that I was choosing someone else as the winner. I am going to chose another winner later on tonight. So if you would like to enter into the contest, feel free to do so TONIGHT. And remember to check your email to confirm with me that you will be able to attend.
THANX MUAH!!!...Sorry to those of you who really won, but did not check your email in time. Better Luck next time.
Also Check out http://fakeshoredrive.blogspot.com/2008/04/video-cool-kids-gemstones-mic-terror.html for videos and a re-cap of Million $ Mano's (of He Say She Say) Bday Bash last night.

Got My Gold Watch And My Gold Chain And My Certified Gold Album...
So I believe its certified now that Lupe Fiasco's The Cool went gold on 4/15/08. Sorta looking like the picture, but maybe not...So Congratulations and hopefully many more fans and record sales will follow. So to celebrate, i was going to put up all the rare Lupe songs, but that takes too long. I think i've heard everyone except the Three Six Mafia collab. But instead i'm just going to put up Real Recognize Real/Pills to commemorate The Cool going Gold. Since its basically, the main story behind the album. Enjoy.

[THROWBACK] Lupe addresses his #1 Hater...Bryon Crawford
Here's another throwback for you guys! Lupe Fiasco was offered the opportunity to be a guest blogger over at XXL.com and he used that opportunity to GO IN on his #1 Hater (even still to this day) Bol...haha the entry was insightful yet entertaining lol
Lupe Fiasco Presents…Byron Crawford is a bitch ass nigga!
Words:Lupe Fiasco
Got your attention?…Great…XXL offered me one of their weekly guest blogger spots…I get three entries so I felt it would only be right for my first entry if I got a little something off my chest about shock critics who go out of their way to bring a black cloud over someone’s life work…i.e. this bitch ass nigga Byron Crawford who just so happens to have a soapbox on here as well…
I remember when my album leaked online a few months back and I made a statment about how was a lil twisted up about it on Okayplayer.com and it got spread around the internet from there…it really had me a lil off ’cause whether people outside the industry wanna believe it or not, a leak can spell the end of your career, but as we all see that wasn’t the case…but what threw me off even more was that this nigga put out a blog like I did it myself to get a buzz going on the internet…then wrote the statment to get sympathy from people…I was like, This nigga really love speaking out his ass with extra ignorance on the side….
And it aint just me, I seen this nigga go out of his way to shit on Kanye like he had a real serious grudge against him…Ban Kanye from the Grammy’s petitons and all other sorts of dumb ass statments…Why do people always attack the positive people who want to help things progress forward?…You ain’t gotta carry the flag or mascot a nigga nuts all niggas like you gotta do is shut the fuck up and keep your comments to yourself and that would be support enough…Most of your dribble and banter is based on your own ignorant opinions and lacking ability to say anything credible or of any substance…Critique technical points on the album or a nigga energy at a live show or something that is “ABLE” to be critiqued. The shit you say is no different than a hating-ass chat room poster who just talks to get attention…Stop being a black Bill O’Reilly!!!….Bitch ass nigga….
Now, I know I always say I try not to curse, but I really felt I had to fight ignorance with ignorance on this…I hate people who just talk to talk…and love to ridicule other people just so they can get attention….I’m well aware I can’t please everyone so I don’t try to and a lot of criticism just goes in one ear and out the other…But when people of some form of stature or merit that have a public forum in which they can share their thoughts and personal feelings such as this nigga right here get to yapping about some nonsense about me you best believe I’ll be right there to jump dead off in yo ass homey…
Now on a lighter note…My favorite colors are blue and purple and my favorite food is anything that my Mama cooks….
Be on the looks for the second entry….yup yup…

*SPOILER ALERT!* Glow In The Dark Tour 4.16.08 Seattle Key Arena
Just a preview
A first hand account from the show via ALLHIPHOP.COM
"Lupe kicked off the show. He had some pretty crazy energy. His set featured all dancers and musicians in red. He was wearin' some sequined red pants with a red leather jacket. Lupe never introduced his backup singers so it took a bit for people to realize that Mathew Santo was on stage. The lights were great. Lupe didn't use the big screens for any trippy art or to help the folks in the nosebleed seats know what's up, he featured videos."

I can't wait till they hit the east coast! Remember if you have any pictures/footage of the show...send it to lupethefiasco@gmail.com or to Kay2dacee@gmail.com and we will do our best to get it up on the blog!
