Fresh off the success of his number 1 selling ‘Lasers’ LP, Lupe Fiasco has hit the studio to work on his fourth studio album, ‘Food & Liquor 2’. The recently released ‘Lasers’ album proved to be the biggest commercial success of Lupe’s career so far, even though the Chicago emcee had mixed feelings about the album and at one point he requested to be released from Atlantic Records.
Speaking with Billboard.com, The rapper revealed that he is using his experience with ‘Lasers’ and taking the lessons he learned into ‘Food & Liqour 2’.
“It’s really taking the lessons I learned from Lasers, and applying that to Food & Liquor 2. That’s really it,” he said. “Me being an artist, I’m never happy with my work, because I don’t ever think it’s finished. It’s hard for an artist to walk away from a piece and say, ‘okay, that’s done.’”
Lupe burst onto the scence in 2006 with his criticly acclaimed debut ‘Food & Liqour’. The rapper recently declared that ‘Food & Luqior 2’ will have his core, longtime fans in mind and will be a return to the style he showcased on his early releases.
“It’s a little more dedicated to the nerdy Lupe Fiasco fans, out there, who like the super double entendres and the triple metaphors and the concept songs. So you know we gonna take it back,” he told radio station Jamz 96.3 over in the US
