Lasers....Lupe Fiasco's heavily awaited album has leaked a few days early than its original release date of March 8th (yea I have the link to the leaked album but Im not sharing, no I havent downloaded it...support ya artist and go buy it)...Only thing is Lupe is not really feeling his album... Lupe Chopped it up with Complex magazine to talked about his new album Lasers and he tells about how he is not really feeling it because he really didn't have anything to do with it...
“There’s nothing really to tell about that record, to be honest. I didn’t have nothing to do with that record. That was the label’s record. That wasn’t like I knew the producer or knew the writer or anything like that. That was one of those records the record company gave me, [they even gave me] stuff they wanted me to rap about. It wasn’t like, ‘Hey I did this and I went to a mountain and found inspiration and it was this.’ [Last April] I was backstage at a show at the House of Blues in L.A. and the president of [Atlantic Records] came to me and said, ‘Hey check this out, I got this song.’ He played ‘Show Goes On’ for me on the iPod. I was used to it because they presented me like ten other songs in the same fashion or via email. So for me, at that point, it was just another record like, ‘Is this a song you want me to do?’ There was nothing special about it for me at that point. It was like, ‘You know we still want off the label, right?’ That was the conversations we were having."
