What The Artist Say...Q-Tip

Today...one of the original members of our Fiasco Fam Skateboard Eddie, ran into Tribe Called Quest MC Q-tip in NYC...Eddie asked Q-Tip what was it like to work with Lupe Fiasco and THIS was his response...

"That kids a genius"

WELL SAID Q-TIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn if that don't just sum up Lu then I don't know WHAT DOES!

Rapper Big Pooh on Lu...

Rapper Pooh is 1/2 of the DOPEST hip hop group out LITTLE BROTHER! As part of our What The Artist Say... series, we asked Pooh these questions...

What are your thoughts on Lupe Fiasco and What do you feel he brings to Hip-Hop?

and his answer to that question was...

"Lupe was a much needed voice in Hip Hop when the masses became aware of not only him, but his talent.

He is an artist who use words as if they are paint brushes creating pictures people will be analyzing for years to come."

Thank you BIG POOH for being apart of The Lupe Fiasco Show and chatting with us! Little Brother is currently out on tour with David Banner! check their MYSPACE for more information and tour dates :)

Stay tuned to the blog to hear what other artist have to say about our main man LUPE FIASCO!

FNF UP!

Blu on Lu...

So I remember when me and Keena came up with this idea for What The Artists Say... We were trying to come up with new shit for the blog...I was eating coconut sorbet and frozen pinapples and...OKAY you didnt need to know that...but yeah...Then, it hit me! "Why don't we ask other rappers what they they think about Lu?"


ANYWAY...Keena already hit you with what the homie Thurzday had to say (Thanks again Thurzday)

and now I bring you the big Homie Blu (another one of my favorites)

Here is BLU

and here is what he said about Lupe...

I think Lupe has accomplished something that is very hard to do now a days; Get real music to get real airplay on commercial radio.

We need more artists on major labels to take a page out of Lupe Fiasco's book and stop flooding the airwaves with garbage music with little to no substance just to make a quick buck.

Expect a Blu/Fiasco Collab soon.

So True!
And Im super excited about the thought of that Collab...
THANK YOU SO MUCH BLU!
Make sure you hit Blu up on myspace

Thurzday on Lupe...

So over here at The Lupe Fiasco Show we will be doing a new feature called What The Artist Say... We will be asking some of Lupe Fiasco's fellow colleagues what they think about Lupe, his music, and what he brings to hip-hop...Our very first installment comes from a guy who has opened for Lupe Fiasco and is 1/2 of the breakout LA hip-hop group U-N-I...



THIS IS THURZDAY!


and here's what he had to say about Mr. Fiasco...

"I think Lupe is one of the premiere lyricists...He delivers on great concepts and I hope he continues his career after LupEND.

And he needs to jump on sum records with U-N-I"

These will be happening sporadically...its interesting to hear what other artist have to say about Lu! Im sure everyone thinks hes great just like we do :)

Stay tuned to the blog for more!

THANKS THURZDAY!
