Lupe Fiasco – “Love Letter To The Beat” feat. Alicia Keys [free download]




Hey guys. It's Lady Trace-Y back from the dead. I haven't posted in a minute, finals and whatnot, ya know? [read: too lazy]

But I saw a new Lupe track & felt i was obligated to come back and post it. It gets bonus points for featuring Alicia Keys.


in Other Lupe related news. here's a little something i borrowed from BeatsandBombs:

If you haven’t been following Lupe’s post-The Cool saga, here’s a condensed version:

  • On the last track of The Cool, he announces LupE.N.D. and says he’ll be calling it quits after that.
  • LupE.N.D. gets postponed, then is reannounced as a triple album, then is “postponed indefinitely” (i.e. cancelled).
  • Somewhere along the way, he lets us know of his plans to drop an album titled The Great American Rap Album. That gets scrapped.
  • LASERS gets announced. Two singles drop and a bunch of tracks off it get performed live. Lupe goes on a tour calledSteppin Laser.

So now that you’re up to speed, guess what just happened. Yeah, new plans. Via Twitter, Lupe writes, “Writing ‘The Great American Rap Album’ While Touring America…”. I don’t know if it’s justLASERS under a different name, or another album in itself, or ifLASERS is being scrapped. All I know is that, in the words of Colonel Stinkmeaner, “this some ol’ bullshit”. This album could go untitled for all I care – I just want some new music.




the end
