Don't let the name fool you here; this isn't your typical Lupe Fiasco . If you've been following Lupe on Twitter over the last couple of months, you'll no doubt have noticed that his feelings towards hip-hop haven't exactly been positive lately. Accordingly so, it seems he's decided to take a brief break from rap music to pursue his SNDCLSH side-project alongside partner Sky Gellatly . Although it may seem strange to fans of Lupe, this isn't his first time branching out from the rap game, as he also had a rock band known as Japanese Cartoon [...]
"Leap of Faith" is the title of the first new single from Rad Omen since the release of their debut album, "Search Party and Destroy". The single is a collaboration with SNDCLSH (which consists out of Lupe Fiasco and Sky Gellatly ), and is now available through iTunes and all major online retailers.
Lupe Fiasco , easily one of the most talented and philosophical rappers in the game has recently announced a very sad piece of news. He is going to be retiring from the rap game. Look below at his tweets after getting into an online battle between rising Chicago rapper Chief Keef. He is one of the few rappers that tried to bring some substance to the rap genre filled with so much waste. He let's loose American Terrorist Pt. II (Superheroes), a new version of his American Terrorist, with a dubstep background. This beat is insane, it's got a mellowed [...]

Lorin Ashton is a living legend. As any basshead knows, that's all that really needs to be said when it comes to Bassnectar. Once again the man himself has put his musical prowess on wax in delivering yet another full length, bass-heavy album. As he did in Divergent Spectrum, Lorin succeeds in covering the entire [...]
News from the dubstep side of the music industry! California DJ Bassnectar and Chicago MC Lupe Fiasco teamed up for a new lead single “Vava Voom”, Bassnectar’s eighth studio album. The album, due out on April 10th, is released under his own Amorphous Music . The track is, as you can predict with Lupe Fiasco, hip-hop and dubstep. Bassnectar describes the track “where life shifts into time-warp speed, but you find yourself in an almost slow-motion trance.” Download : Vava Voom feat. Lupe Fiasco [...]
Bassnectar throws Lupe Fiasco in on his usual house, dubstep sound and it actually works pretty well. Bassnectar will be performing up on Temple's campus on April 20th. When I saw Girl Talk and Pretty Lights at the Liacouras Center, it was an amazing show. Hopefully fans are in for something similar when Bass comes thru. Check out the lead single from his upcoming album VaVa Voom . BASSNECTAR FEAT. LUPE FIASCO - VAVA VOOM - HULKSHARE
Always good to hear a little dubstep in those flows and this time 'round it features Lupe with a Bassnectar premiere off his new album, also dubbed "Vava Voom!" Lupe's timed in just right and makes "Vava Voom" something more than the typical Bassnectar drumstep massacre, but dubstep is already heading out the door with hip-hop (internet time is faaast ), so I'm looking for flows over something like this . Only in the Bay. Bassnectar · Vava Voom (feat. Lupe Fiasco) [...]
The internets have been buzzing about this Bassnectar/Lupe collab all week. Teasers, previews, blog promos, etc, etc, the promotional build-up has been extensive. So how's the track stack up? First, it doesn't sound really at all like anything we thought it would. (which is probably a good thing.) With its HEAVY bass bang, slowed vocal chop ups, and beefily synthed arpeggios, the track's pedigree is more Dirty South rap than EDM, L.A.S.E.R.S. or whatever else. Swerve to it. Bassnectar ( Facebook [...]

California DJ-producer Bassnectar enlists Lupe for the title single off his upcoming album dropping April 10th. This is dub-step, Rock and Hip-Hop all rolled into one. Lupe continues to experiment outside of the traditional Hip-Hop sound. This song dropped on rollingstone.com today and it is pretty drop I think the you know that to expect. download mp3: VAVA VOOM (feat. Lupe Fiasco)
Lupe Fiasco - I Gotcha (The Polish Ambassador Remix) The Polish Ambassador is no stranger to MJF and is constantly dropping all these dope remixes that get overlooked by too many people, including the music blogosphere. The one above is no exception. TPA revives this classic Lupe joint and remixes it into electrifying party starter, which is legitimately the only way I can describe this track. Hit the widget below to download his latest EP Homeboys in Outerspace II including some more remixes of Jay-Z, Beastie Boys with Phil Collins & Dead [...]
It's always great hearing a remix of the newest track, but it's also just as cool hearing a classic track from years ago pumped full of modern electronic bass. Today I've got a crunchy new electro house take on the track 'Automatic' from 802s stars Pointer Sisters. It's got an 802s vibe, but with the pounding bass you can't get enough of . It's done by DJ Kue and The SNDCLSH, (The SNDCLSH is actually Lupe Fiasco's new DJ Project Turn it up, enjoy! Pointer Sisters - Automatic (SNDCLSH & Dj Kue Remix) | [...]
BATMAN KNOWS! What's going on everyone? Another week of Any Given Saturday. Yayyy ! Well I'm pretty sure everyone is on break from school and spending time just relaxing and what not. Lately I've been chillin' and listening to some new stuff that came out and I'll be talking about it below. Also I bought that new Batman game. Batman Arkham City , and it's pretty legit. Well enough video game talk it's bout' that time.... lets get into these songs.
Lupe Fiasco , being the gentleman that he is, dropped another mixtape on Thanksgiving. Finally having come out of my turkey stupor, I'm blasting it way too loud right now. Here's a couple of the better songs from it, although the whole thing is great. How could it be bad when it samples the likes of Sebastian, Bassnectar, The Glitch Mob, and Kaskade, among others? Here's some Bassnectar/Ellie Goulding goodness. Download: Lupe Fiasco - Lightwork Oh, and did I mention M83? Download: [...]
Lupe Fiasco is getting ready to release a new Mixtape, following behind his album "Lasers" from earlier this year. This song is the first track on the mix, featuring Lupe rapping over Bassnectar's Remix of Ellie Goulding's track "Lights". Another example of the creeping influence of dubstep in American music.. Its an unusual combination, but after a few listens it has been really growing on me. Lupe definitely is one of the best out there, and this track shows his continuing willingness to experiment with his sound.

Lupe Fiasco is gonna give us something credible this year after all. Friend Of The People , the once cancelled and now not mixtape will be dropping on Thanksgiving Day…good name for a Thanksgiving tape, no? Listen to “LightWork” as Lupe raps over Bassnectar’s remix of Ellie Goulding’s track “Lights”. Much better than what we heard earlier this year. And in case you are wondering, no that’s not official artwork. I found it in a google image search. It’s pretty good though I think. MP3: Lupe Fiasco - LightWork (feat. Bassnectar & Ellie Goulding) [...]
Tweet This post is a “QuickPick”. QuickPicks are my attempt at getting all of the music that’s sent to me that I like (or just music I like but have no words for because it’s so awesome), out into the dubya dots. Any time I get sent music that I like I “star” it in Gmail and then go back and listen to it a day later. If it’s still as good as it was a day before then it goes up on the [...]
