Lupe Fiasco recently sat down with Billboard, where he gave an update on his upcoming albums, Drogas Wave and Skulls.
“For me, I always shoot myself in the foot when I try to give an idea of a release date or a period of time,” he says. “So I’m just not going to do that … My portion — the raps are written, recorded. My part is done. Now it’s on to the next. Now it’s shift gears to figure out what I want to do with Skulls.”
Speaking on the theme for Drogas Wave, he says, “It’s about a group of slaves on a slave ship on their way to Africa to the West Indies and they are thrown off the boat. But they didn’t die. They stayed alive and they lived under the sea. And they dedicated their lives to sinking slave ships — so they became this super, underwater force against slavery.”
