New Lupe Off Lasers - The Show Goes On

Alright, look this probably isn't the song Lupe had hoped to release as the lead single for Lasers. One of the sticking points for his long delayed third album was that he wasn't giving Atlantic radio friendly songs. He has certainly given into their demand with this, but that doesn't mean this song is weak by any standard. Does it have blatant billboard aspirations? Yes. Is it basically Love The Way You Lie to Right Above It's Airplanes? Yes. But the thing is this song is still more credible than 95% of the shit you hear on radio. It's a straighforward, feel good, anthem that will perform well on the charts and serve it's purpose of creating buzz for Lasers. If that's what it takes to get a release date these days then so be it.

The Show Goes On - Sooo Sick
