LUPE FIASCO – GO TO SLEEP

Monday, 23 August, 2010

The snippet of this track dropped a couple weeks ago and it had me salivating for the full CDQ version. Lupe Fiasco has always been one of my favorite artists out there. His words are genius and his flow is eloquent, both of those show up magnificently in this track called Go To Sleep which will be featured on Food & Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album.
