The rapper’s unreleased song, “Hustlaz”, is a warm and thoughtful song full of soul and triumphant horn fanfares. Along with his intriguing wordplay, Lupe is known for his thoughtful lyrics and content, which can be heard on songs like “Shoes”. In “Hustlaz”, Lupe tells a detailed story of a young up and coming artist in the music game in”Hustlaz”. Comparing them to the daily struggles of life in the streets, Lupe writes, “I roll like cherry red Jell-O dice/ It’s Was, just the pot calling the kettle white.” According to a press release, “Hustlaz” will be featured on 1st & 15th productions upcoming EP Chill’s Spotlight 2.
Lupe’s “LFT” program will be launched on February 10 in partnership with Magic Eden and Solana.
