I went to Lupe Fiasco’s concert last night at the Nokia Theater

set list


opener: Optimus (fucking horrible, he was going rock/rap/reggae mixes which could’ve been cool but he was really sloppy and not very talented)

then lupe came on and did:

-a kanye song that i dont remember the name of (which was a weird opener, i looked at my friend like wtf)
-Feel Good Music
-I gotcha
-daydreaming
-the instrumental
-sunshine
-american terrorist (and matthew santos was there, INSANE)
-kick, push

then he bounced and gemini did 3-4 songs which were pretty sick

then he came back and did “the coolest” accapella
-fighters
-streets on fire
-hi-definition

oh then this part was awesome, he’s intro-ing “dumb it down” and he’s pretending to be someone giving him “advice” on rap, saying take two words, put “and” in the middle and make it a song

so he did “rims and timbs” and made a song out of it and went for like a minute spitting some really generic shit about rims and woodgrain. i was dying.

then he went into dumb it down

- gold watch
- hip hop saved my life
- superstar

fucking most awesome show i’ve ever been to by far
