Lupe Fiasco

Superstar

One of Jay-Z's protegees, we remember Lupe Fiasco mainly from his gorgeous collaboration with Jill Scott trasforming Daydream In Blue into Daydreamin.

Now he's back with his 2nd album The Cool and a similarly chilled out, lush sound. Superstar hears him teaming up with singer Matthew Santos. We absolutely love this song but we're not sure how well it will do coming out around the same time as Kanye's Homecoming . Collaborators on Touch The Sky , Lupe and Kanye have a similar rapping style and both their current singles are laid back grooves with a soulful singer taking the chorus.
