It’s not easy being a best kept secret, especially for an artist who is constantly mind traveling and has so much to say. It has to be just as hard when one of hip-hop’s greatest and most respected MC’s tells one of the most powerful record executives in the world that the talents of the person he’s representing are similar to his own five years ago. That’s exactly what retired rap legend and current President of Def Jam Records, Jay-Z, told then Arista Records CEO L.A. Reid in a meeting back in 2002 about wunderkind Lupe Fiasco.


The 24 year-old Chicago native, who has been highly regarded and coveted by many top-level executives and industry insiders for the past three years, has remained relatively unknown in the public eye.  Until now.  With the release of his Atlantic Records debut, “LUPE FIASCO’S FOOD & LIQUOR,” Lupe Fiasco is sure to take the entire music industry by storm.
