Lupe Interview

While sampling Kanye’s new album I came across “Touch the Sky” featuring HYPEBEAST’s very own Lupe Fiasco. So I decided to conduct a small 4 question interview about him being on Kanye’s album which comes out August 30th. Anyways without the album being out yet, “Touch the Sky” has already made it to radio stations! Congrats Lupe!!

Chris: So what was it like working with kanye on his new album?

Lupe: Cool beans…

Chris: In your verse you say lupin the 3rd. Are you into anime?

Lupe: Yeah man…Akira, Crying Freeman, Giant Robo, Gundam, Macross, 8 Man After, Lupin, Cowboy Bebop, Hellsing, Guyver…I’m down with some Manga…I used to collect it…

Chris: do you think being on kanye’s new album, a lot more pepole will want to feature you on songs?

Lupe: Nah Maybe not….I believe its because I unjustifiably charge Millions of dollars for a verse!!!…If anything people will stop calling all together and pay no attention to it whatsoever……..yeah sure and I’m the King Of The Moons Of Mars…My celly is stupid ringin’!!! hahahahaha….Swanky!

Chris: how about a shout on on your next mixtape song? hahaha
