Lupe Fiasco Launching Radio Station That Will Play AI Versions Of His Own Music

    Lupe Fiasco has announced an AI-powered radio station he’s dubbed ‘Endless LUP’ that will soon see its way to FM dials.

    In a post to Instagram, Lupe revealed that the platform will be rolled out in 2025.

    “Imagine if there was a 24 hour fully AI powered radio station trained on all the intricacies of my Rapping abilities and was carefully refined to produce the highest quality possible Lupe Fiasco songs,” he said. “Now imagine it only played a generated song once and never again endlessly…now imagine that radio station was only available for certain periods of time and only in certain locations and you needed an actual FM radio to hear the songs.

    “Imagine I put a team together at MIT and imagine we actually built it…ENDLESS LUP coming soon.”

    Lupe Fiasco has been working with MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) since 2022 when he was named one of the school’s visiting professors for the 2022-23 school year.

    Since then, he was named a Saybrook Fellow at Yale University in 2023, and now most recently, the Chicago native has been announced as a professor of Hip Hop at Johns Hopkins University.

    Alongside a picture of himself wearing a Johns Hopkins baseball cap, the Lupe wrote on Wednesday (January 1): “Let’s hit the ground running in 2025… Thrilled to share that I’ll be joining the faculty at the prestigious Johns Hopkins University’s Peabody Institute in Fall 2025 as a Distinguished Visiting Professor, teaching Rap as part of the groundbreaking new 4-year Hip Hop Degree Program led by the visionary Professor @wendelpatrickofficialmusic.

    “The @peabodyinstitute is one of the oldest music conservatories in America. World renowned for its rigorous training and for producing some of the world’s greatest musicians, and I’m honored to contribute to this legacy doing what I love most, Rap.”

    He added: “I’ll continue my teaching at @mit and pursuing my fellowship at @yale while advancing Rap studies and practice into the upper echelons of higher education at large. See you soon Baltimore.”

    In the comments section, Lupe received some love from the likes of Freeway, Robert Glasper, Bun B and Twista, among others.

    1. Horrible idea. Random AI songs? Never replays, never hear again? Whats the point of music if you can never hear the same song twice? But AI Lupe isn’t Lupe.

    2. How about a radio station that plays underground music, So much dope music out there people never hear that’s much better than mainstream radio
