Lupe Fiasco – Hip-Hop Saved My Life (Feat. Nikki Jean)
Tracks like “Paris, Tokyo” and “Superstar” had me avoiding Lupe’s music. But after giving his album, The Cool, a listen, I am glad to have found that he also does real music. There are a couple great tracks on the disc, including [...]

I also believe that the motherfucker in question is a guy by the name of Hillel (or [...]
