Lupe Fiasco will be collaborating with Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump on his new record.
The track Little Weapon will appear on the new album The Cool and will be about child soldiers. Lupe has said the album will be dark and macabre but rumour has it, there will be a song on the record spoken from the perspective of a cheeseburger. If this is true, we’re all doomed.
A fucking cheeseburger.
Pennywise are teaming up with MySpace on a new release idea.

D.A.N.C.E. by Justice is one of the tracks of the year, without a doubt. But now it’s been remixed by Benny Blanco of Bangers & Cash fame with none other than Spank Rock and Mos Def on vocals. Sound good? Of course it does, just click that play button suckers!
