Lupe, alongside special guest rappers: Kanye and Pharrell, has just released ‘US Placers’, a brand new track, which samples (of all things) Thom Yorke’s ‘The Eraser’.
Thanks to Spine Magazine for directing The Music Slut to the tune. ‘US Placers’ is scheduled to be on Lupe’s upcoming sophomore effort, The Cool, out on Halloween Day.
For as much as I love Thom (hell, Kanye as well), I’m still uncertain if I enjoy this track in reality as much as I do in theory.
Take a listen to the MP3 below and kindly share your thoughts with us.
MP3: Lupe Fiasco (feat. Kanye & Pharrell) – US Placers
this song is bad, but not as bad as Kanye’s absolute destruction of the Daft Punk HBFS sample. He also rips on Young Folks which is actually pretty funny. You can hear both at my site –
