Next week, Lupe Fiasco will return with Tetsuo and Youth. We've already had plenty tastes of the album, and now he's shared yet another taste of the release with "Mural."
The song's another immaculately produced offering that skips pop-friendly radio rap in favour of some smooth, suave hip-hop.
"I don't want to be relevant today," the rapper recently told Billboard. "There is a new generation speaking to a new generation, so you have a Kendrick Lamar and a J. Cole and the other people who are the new Lupes. I don't have the same lingo. I don't sip lean or smoke weed. I can't compete with a Wiz Khalifa for the attention of a 12-year old."
Give "Mural" a listen below. Tetsuo and Youth arrives on January 20.
