[Listen] Lupe Fiasco - "American Terrorist III"

Lupe Fiasco delivers a new track out of nowhere titled "American Terrorist III". It appears that he's forgotten how to count as there's no Pt. Deux anywhere to be found but whatever, we'll take the new track Lupe. Thank you very much. Give it a spin below and let us know what you're making of it after a few listens.

[Download] Lupe Fiasco - 'Friend of the People' (Mixtape)

After being shelved back in 2009 when it was originally set for a Christmas release, Lupe Fiasco has finally dropped the long awaited mixtape, Friend Of The People. The mixtape will help tide over fans waiting his next full length LP Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor II: The Great American Rap Album. Featuring samples from the likes of M83, Justice and Sebastian along with some incredibly tongue in cheek song titles why wouldn't you want a free post turkey day mixtape. 

CoS also points towards a stream of the M83 sampling "The End of the World" from 1SwellyBeatsMusic.

[Listen] Patrick Stump - "This City" Feat. Lupe Fiasco

We gotta another Rock (or in this case former Rock gone Pop) x Hip Hop crossover. Peep the Chicago homaging tune from the former Fall Out Boy frontman, Patrick Stump's long awaited solo album Soul Punk titled "This City" featuring fellow Chicago musician, rapper Lupe Fiasco. FOB fans may be a tad disappointed as Stump has strayed far away from his emo rock band roots into a pop singer/songwriter. Take a listen to the new tune below and also catch Stump's previous track "Explode" here.

[Watch] Lupe Fiasco - "The Show Goes On" Live on Letterman

Love him or hate him, Lupe can still bring it when he neds to if you ask me. Last night he dropped by the David Letterman show to perform his track "The Show Goes On", you know the one with that video where in the video he turns into the his kidself and you get a little freaked out? Just me then on that?..

Enjoy his performance up at the top courtesy of the awesome and tireless Audio Perv. While you're here go pick up a copy of Lupe's latest album Lasers and give it all a spin if you like his performance here.

[Listen] Kenna - Land To Air Chronicles: The Chaos & Darkness

Kenna's latest release and first self-release, Land To Air Chronicles: The Chaos & Darkness, officially dropped today. Thanks to MySpace, you can have a listen to the entire thing before you head over to iTunes and pick it up for yourself.

I have mixed feelings about this EP. As a longtime fan, I'm glad he's pressing on and doing this himself. Mostly all great things thought. "Chains" took a few spins to grow on me, but now I really like it. I was drawn to "Kharma Is Coming" almost instantly. I like how guitar driven it is. Really different from his previous efforts. "What U Want" leaves me with mixed emotions. This song had been floating around for awhile as a potential song on Lupe Fiasco's Lasers album and featured Kenna on background vocals. I don't know the full story here as far as who wrote what or exactly why the track seemed to have gotten passed around so much, but hearing a different version from someone else completely kind of left me with a bad taste in my mouth before I even pressed play. That being said, it's not a bad track at all. It probably won't rank high of all time songs, but it's still pretty solid.

The EP is the first of a three part series under the name Land To Air Chronicles. Following the EP series, a full length titled Songs For Flight is due to follow thereafter.

Have a listen to the EP below and drop us a comment to tell us what you think!
