Lupe Fiasco Complex Magazine Interview

Apparently Lupe's stance on whether any more of his music gets released is "If it does it does, if it doesn't it doesn't, who cares". So that's my stance on Lupe as an artist as well... "Who Cares". Dude can let 2 and a half years+ worth of work get put on a shelf in a back room somewhere cause 1 album won't come out, that's fine. I'm hoping at some point he shows an ounce of respect for his fans or even his own music (I realize he has this superiority complex it seems. And makes rap because he thinks he's the best at it and it's so effortless for him, and not because he actually values the art or genre) And doesn't let the delayed release of a single album hold him back from putting out SOMETHING respectable while everything is moving slow and being put on hold. Something other then a half assed, "Desperate", weak attempt at a mixtape that is. If he really wanted people to hear his music, or even cared, he would find a way to put it out even if it's not thru official channels by means of an album following up Lasers. Even if it's a slow, steady drip of content until the time things get back on track. Instead of waiting 2 and a half years for a couple songs to leak, and then get bitched about because "that's not how he wanted them to come out". Anyways, it sounds like a f***ed up situation from all around. And I feel bad for dude for having to put up with it. But there are better approaches to situations like this then putting your head in the sand. Nobody seems to care anymore. And everyone ends up suffering, the fans especially. So until the time it looks like somebody finally took a legitimate interest in dudes career and music and making it work (whatever the situation may be), don't expect me to continuously follow someone and maintain that interest either.
