Lupe Fiasco f. Guitar Wayne - Fast Money

This guy has been off my radar as of late. I’ve seen a few things recently referring to an album scheduled for late 2009, but haven’t heard any music from it so far.

The last time I paid him any real attention was when T.I. and Jeezy absolutely MERKING the remix (<— the video is a mash-up) to his most successful single to date, Superstar, back in early 2008. Not that the song (and the album) didn’t stand up on it’s own (it absolutely did), but I damn near gave Tip the verse of the year nod in mid-January.

Anyhow, I was an early adopter - appreciating his guest spot on ‘Ye’s Touch The Sky, I dug deep and grabbed all the mixtapes I could find, and stayed true while he prepped his debut. Re-discovering them recently, I was reminded of the amount of fire this guy was dropping on the Fahrenheit 1/15 series.

Running through all 3 of them today, the concepts, beat selection, samples, and bars bars bars are super impressive. The above track is from the second one; it always puts a smile on my face to come upon a song or an album or an artist that I’d lost in the shuffle.

This show (one of the finest ever) is planted soooo firmly in the hallowed halls of my adolescence.

Adele (1988) - Make You Feel My Love

Also, if you didn’t know that Bob Dylan wrote this song, now you know.

Ryan Leslie f. Pusha T - Something That I Like

Yet another smooth, quality piece from R Lez. This guy is low-key a musical genius. And a Pusha T verse certainly never hurts.
