Footage comes from Lupe’s show at Governors Island last week in New York City. Here he performs “Nas Is Like” in which he then utters to the crowd, “…and just so you know, Nas is my favorite emcee.”
“It feels great,” Meth said about the partial Wu-Tang Clan album. “Rae got the album out, Ghost is coming with his album, and all three of us got the album together. And you hearing it here first. I ain’t never said it on tape. … Method, Raekwon, Ghostface — new album.”

Wale told Rap-Up at the VMA red carpet that it would be him and Lupe Fiasco opening for Mr. Carter’s Blueprint 3 Tour. From what it looks like now, there has been a change of plan. According to Reuters, the tour will now feature N.E.R.D, Roc Nation’s Wale and J. Cole, and of course, Jay-Z. If you missed the dates, they’re on the jump. Don’t be mad your city ain’t up there. This is a tour strictly for the cities that don’t usually get stuff like this. Hey, they’re adding more dates very soon. So just keep your fingers crossed. This isn’t something you want to miss!
