Lupe Fiasco Shares Previously Unreleased Child Rebel Soldier Track “Shrink” Featuring Sample Of Radiohead’s “Optimistic”

According to nme.comLupe Fiasco has shared “Shrink,” previously unreleased Child Rebel Soldier tune that includes a Radiohead sample. The tune features a sample of Radiohead’s “Optimistic” that is taken from the album, Kid A. ”Shrink” was written with Child Rebel Soldier, Fiasco’s former supergroup with Kanye West and Pharrell Williams. Also,”Shrink” does not include West or Willams, but instead sees Fiasco re-record the track with his vocals. As a whole, the music is lovely by how the instrumentation creates a killer rock vibe, while the artist raps out the lyrics.

“Shrink” follows after Fiasco‘s comments to  Stereogum in July that he is aiming to reboot CRS as a solo project that focuses on him rapping over Radiohead samples, as was originally intended before West and Williams got involved.
