My Bad Lupe
"For The Record:
The track “I’m Beaming” that was leaked last night was NOT authorized or intentionally leaked by myself or my company.
Plain and simple its STOLEN property. And this goes for ANY record or track that leaks or is made available for illegal download from this day forward.
Actions are being taken and the authorities have been notified.
As a personal plea to all my fans PLEASE DO NOT share, stream, or download any unauthorized or stolen Lupe Fiasco music.
A lot of time and energy goes into the creation of this music, not to mention large sums of money, money provided by my record company as well as from my own personal finances. My music is the product of my life. It means so much to me. I take pride in it and i also take pride in how it changes peoples lives and gives them hope. So to see it treated in this manner really numbs the soul. So many of my family and friends rely on me for their well-being and I rely on my music to give me the opportunities that allow me to provide for them.
So this one i’m taking personal. And I will do ALL that is in my power and my circle of influence to make sure that the persons directly or even remotely responsible for this and any future events involving the piracy and illegal distribution and solicitation of my music will be brought to justice and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Both criminally as well as civilly.
With the history that surrounds the devastating and massive piracy of my first album i’m sure some of you can understand why this very harsh stance that is being taken up. And for those of you unsympathetic enough not to understand i can only compare it to someone breaking into your house and stealing everything not tied down or someone kidnapping you sister or brother and ransoming them back to you. A deep sense of helplessness. I hope you never have to feel this and i wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy.
Happy Holidays…
EVEN AT THIS TIME WE ARE NOT LOSERS…

Broadway Miller Catch Up or Get Caught! Official Mixtape Release Party
You may think you know Broadway Miller — with tracks like "Break It Down", "Carolina Boujie" and "Letter to the Hood", Broadway displays a progressive lyrical ability and originality missing from the hip-hop game. "Carolina Boujie", according to Broadway, is "an ode back to North Carolina. I'm from the Cack, but I've been to the city and back. Now I have both perspectives. So some people may call me 'Carolina Boujie', but really the track explains that I have simply evolved." That's not it! You have no f*&^$ing idea about Broadway's journey until you hear the mixtape in full, blazing through your speakers full throttle! Broadway, who wrote every track on the mixtape, describes "Catch Up or Get Caught" as a reflection of his life and his growth as an artist.
The HU student will have the opportunity to share this journey and the creative process behind the mixtape on Thursday, December 10, 2009. NexonDeck Multimedia and Sprite Green will host an official listening session for Broadway at the popular K Street hotspot, Lotus Lounge from 9-10pm. Guests will get to sample music from the new mixtape, meet and greet with Broadway, and compete for free give aways.
Since being released, "Catch Up or Get Caught" has been regarded by bloggers and fans as "a gift to rap music," and a "towering inferno" with "unique tracks". Currently nominated for North Carolina Underground Music Award’s Lyricist of the Year and ranked #4 among Beam’s Top 5 songs of the week with “Passenger Side”, Broadway’s buzz continues to grow along the east coast. With radio play in his home state of North Carolina and appearances at local DC nightclubs, the southern lyricist continues to hustle the support and respect of multiple demos.
Don't miss your chance to see what the buzz is all about!
