Lupe Fiasco - Mural

As we draw closer to the release date of Tetsuo & Youth, Lupe Fiasco‘s first studio album in almost three years, the Chicago rapper has released a new single from the LP titled “Mural.” The fast-paced, piano-eccentric track offers eight minutes of lyrical onslaught, highlighted by ingenious metaphors as Lupe touches personal subjects such as his rough upbringing, society’s varied systems, and his lavish lifestyle over a sample of Cortex’s popular “Chanson D’Un Jour D’Hiver.” Give the track a listen, and click over to HYPETRAK for additional single premieres from your favorite artists. Tetsuo & Youth will be officially released on iTunes this upcoming Tuesday, January 20.
