Lupe Fiasco Releases 'Samurai DX' Deluxe, Expanding 'Samurai' With Five Tracks
One track, 'SOS,' is self-produced, underscoring his low-profile focus on craft.
Overview
- The deluxe follow-up collects five songs that reframe the recent concept album for listeners.
- Three cuts are remixes of “Samurai,” “Palaces,” and “Bigfoot,” each featuring Troy Tyler in a more R&B-leaning approach.
- Two additions are new recordings: opener “High Note” with Luv Moore and “SOS,” which Lupe produced himself.
- HipHop-N-More reported the release on August 22, and the project is available to stream now.
- Social posts from rapper Mickey Factz prompted fresh Lupe-versus-Kendrick technical comparisons that drew both agreement and pushback from fans.
