Lupe Fiasco Makes A Promise Rappers Rarely Keep
You Know Old "I'm Quitting Music To Write A Book About A Window Washer" Promise
 

lupe.jpgLupe "What The Hell Is He Talking About" Fiasco, who can pretty brilliant in his songs and pretty ridiculous in interviews, said that he is going to do one more album and then retire to put his creativity into writing a book about a window washer. The window washer will probably not listen to A Tribe Called Quest.

"I have one more album in me and then I'm out. I've been doing this music hustle for eight years and have more things I still want to do."

"There are other ways besides putting out an album that allow me to channel my creative energy and I'm writing a book about a window washer. I will have more than enough to keep me busy."

Fiasco will name his final album LupEND, for obvious reasons. And although the topic of his book gave me pause, if every rapper out right now wrote a novel, Lupe Fiasco's would probably be the best.

LOL at the Tribe jab. I was disappointed in his poor excuse for not forgetting his lyrics on stage.

& Lupe's a real clown in interviews. He'd made some uninformed statements about Obama & Billary on some on SOHH.

Hope his finances are right. I mean, it's not like he's sold a ton of albums. He might end up being the window washer he writes about.

Will anyone even notice or care? I know I won't.
