Lupe Fiasco in “B*tch Bad” Video
In 2012 Lupe Fiasco released Food & Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album Pt. 1, and announced plans to release the pt. 2 this year. According to a series of tweets that were eventually deleted, the concept for that album has been scrapped and Lupe is working on another album instead.
“A decision has been made that the project titled ‘F&L2 Part 2′ will be summarily cancelled for public release in 2013. The title/concept for Lupe’s 2013 release will be revealed later this year.” (view screen caps here)
It’ll be interesting to see what direction Lupe has decided to go in once more details arrive.
