Lupe Fiasco: Samurai Vinyl LP
"On his new album, Samurai, Lupe Fiasco retreats inward to give fans one of his most personal albums in his deep catalog. The narrative follows a battle rapper through various moments in his career, starting with how they honed their battle rap skills, following their career through different moments. Musically, the new album finds Lupe delighting in the simple pleasures of assembling assonant syllables into playful and poignant narratives. The 8-track album is smooth, yet cerebral, brimming with ideas, but always radiating Lupe’s pure love for the art of emceeing and committing himself as a servant of the rap game. The album was produced in full by longtime collaborator and friend, Soundtrakk ('Superstar,' 'Kick, Push,' 'HipHop Saved My Life'), their second time linking up on a full album after 2022’s Drill Music in Zion. It’s the first time they’d worked together in the studio since Lupe’s seminal album, The Cool in 2007." - Thirty Tigers
