Strange Fruit Project feat. Supastition- Day By Day

The whole Strange Fruit Project "M.A.S.K. Ep" was pretty tight. It's good to see them attempting to get back in the swing of things. I've missed their hip-hop.

I love the song you posted the most tho!

Re: fans of underground rap?

I know he isn't underground, but there's a new Lupe Fiasco mixtape coming on Thanksgiving.

Enemy of the State: A Love Story

“The last six months, it’s been like, ‘I gotta really, really go out there and show that I’m nicer than all of them,’ ” Lupe said. “It’s like, ‘All right, so be it. If it takes three more albums to do it, then so be it.’ That’s what I got left with Atlantic. Three more after Lasers. I’m already done with two. The mixtape is coming Thanksgiving. It’ll be another mixtape after that and an album after that. It’s really to get that status and lock it in and [and have people] be like, ‘Look at this positive dude, the underdog. The positive one who came and murdered all these dudes. And he’s there, and he’s good.’ “

Lupe said he isn’t concerned about what he has to do — he’s going to prove he’s the best.
“I’m finnin’ to house every single mode and arena I can get into,” Fiasco promised. “If y’all had somewhere where it’s live performances, I’m finnin to have the best live performances. If it’s mixtapes, I’m finnin’ to have the best mixtapes. If it’s albums again, it’s gonna be the best verse. If it’s the best dressed, I’m going hard as well.”
Lupe said the yet-untitled mixtape will be him going in over other MCs’ beats. “I got four days to figure it out,” he said about the title. “I’ve been dabbling with some names. I don’t know yet.”
Concerning the production, Lupe said he’s not going to let any original production go.
“Why waste it?” he said. “I still got my plan. I’m not finnin’ to diverge off my plan and my career and how I wanna roll my music out.”

WOW!

I knew an SFP EP was coming out soon, because S1 posted about it on Twitter, but I had no idea it was out. How is it? This beat is beautiful though. S1 is amazing and his son is crazy too.

People that I saw talk about it said it was bad so I avoided it.

it doesn't match the previous work they have done. I would say that you heard half right. It's not really that bad, but it's not groundbreaking either (like Blue Scholars of the past).

Jay really upped his game on the boards...I'm might have to buy a few of his beats and throw a mixtape out.

man I am diggin Jay's beat-making game so much right now. He's really come into his own, and he has fleshed out his illustrative style really nicely.
