Lupe Fiasco and Alicia Keys have collaborated on a new song titled “Love Letter to the Beat”, and the result is amazing! It sounds like there are some beats from the 70s in the song, something which would definitely be great to hear more of in other songs. The vibe of the song is very catchy, and instantly makes you want to get up and dance.
The track will most likely be on Lupe Fiasco’s next album “Lasers”, which doesn’t have any official release date yet. "It's one of the sadder parts of being on a major record label," Fiasco told a radio station in Australia. "At a certain point it's out of your hands. About a date for Lasers, it's truly on them. I have no idea what they're going to do."
Looks like once again, a record label is holding too much power over their artist. It must be frustrating at times for artists who can’t be independent. On the other hand, they can also put them on the map, when they’re struggling to make it in the music business.
