Originally slated for an October 30 release, Lupe Fiasco told Billboard.com that his
sophomore LP, The Cool, has been pushed back until
November 20.
Lupe also stated that he is working on the album now with 1st &
15th producers Pro and Soundtrack as well as Pharrell and Kanye West.
Lupe also let it be known that Kanye,
Pharrell and himself are deciding
whether or not to release an album as the supergroup CRS (Child Rebel Soldiers). Their first and only song, US Placers, was premiered on Kanye West’s mixtape, Can’t Tell Me Nothing. (To listen to the
mixtape click here, while the single can be found here).
One last startling fact that Lupe revealed is that he is growing tired of
making music and that he might retire after his third LP.
“I’m just wearing down … I’m never doing
mixtapes again, not even internet ones. My whole energy for making hip hop
music is slowing down,” Lupe
told Billboard.com.
