Hiphop legend Lupe Fiasco is set to have a special performance next year. On Saturday, February 23, the talented lyricist will be performing his entire Food & Liquor album at the Novo in Los Angeles.

Wasalu Muhammad Jaco, aka MC Lupe Fiasco, reigns from Chicago and has been in the rap game since 2000. While currently being one of the best rappers to ever live, Lupe’s career didn’t really take off until the release of his first studio album in 2006 entitled Food & Liquor. With a stacked list of producers like Jay Z, Kanye West, The Neptunes, and Mike Shinoda that worked on the album, the record was destined for success. The favored album featured many of his hit singles which included Kick, Push, I Gotcha, and Daydreamin’ featuring Jill Scott. Lupe earned various accolades because of this successful album including Breakout Man of the Year for GQ Magazine, four BET Hiphop award nominations, and won Best Urban/Alternative Performance for Daydreamin’. The album will forever be ingrained in hiphop history and will always be referred to as one of the best hiphop albums of all time.
With the said, fans are fortunate that Lupe has finally gotten the opportunity to give them what they wanted for many years. Food & Liquor is not only an essential piece of hiphop history but also significant in Lupe’s growing career as a lyrical virtuoso.
