NEWS: Lupe Fiasco Announces New Studio Album Called Lasers

Lupe Fiasco's New Studio Album 'Lasers', set for release on March 7, 2011.

Grammy Award-winning superstar Lupe Fiasco's eagerly anticipated, third full-length collection Lasers will be available in store and online on March 7, 2011.

Lupe Fiasco will release the first single from Lasers on Tuesday, October 26th via www.lupefiasco.com.

Lasers, which stands for, Love Always Shines Every time Remember to Smile, is the long awaited follow-up to Lupe’s blockbuster second album, Lupe Fiasco's The Cool, which debuted on Billboard's Top Rap Albums chart at number one upon its December 2007 release. It remained in the peak position for nine weeks.

The Chicago-based MC is without question one of the most compelling and creative artists of the modern era, offering a rare combination of complex, thought-provoking lyricism coupled with sure-fire beats. Lupe is confirmed to return to New Zealand for the Big Day Out on Friday 21 January 2011 at Auckland's Mt Smart Stadium, where we can expect explosive new music from the trail-blazing rapper.

Lupe’s debut album, Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor, exploded onto Billboard's Top Rap Albums chart at number one, and spawned hits 'Daydreamin' (featuring Jill Scott) and 'Kick Push'.
