Lupe Fiasco has been a conscious voice of the people in hip-hop for the last decade. On April 14, Lupe announced three names of his final albums, DROGAS, DROGAS Light and SKULLS, via Twitter.
In January, Lupe announced Roy would be the name of one his albums, but he later announced to his fans that he would change the album artwork for the three albums, and add a short skit entitled, DROGAS.
It appears as though Lupe plans to release DROGAS in the near future. The Chicago native tweeted the cover art to the project with the caption “Don’t Ruin Us God Said,” which is also an acronym for “DRUGS,” which means “DROGAS” in spanish.
According to VIBE, all of the projects will be released this year. Lupe released several interviews that tell the story behind DROGAS. The conversation includes one between himself and activists Keith Stallings and Aaron Ireland of L.O.T.U.S (Lifting Ourselves Through Us.)
“We want advertisers and we want the media, such as the radio, to respect us like we respect ourselves,” Ireland says. “As long as they’re profiting off of our kids and off of us, we demand that you respect our values and our morals. Part of our values and morals are that, during the 8, we don’t want to bombard our kids with talk of drugs, guns, and violence. We want to make other things cool so that we can have positive role models for the future.”
Currently, no official release date has been announced for the project. SKULLS will be the last LP that Lupe will release.
