Lupe Fiasco returns with his new track titled “Run Game.” The track comes from a recording session back in 2001, when a young Lupe was still looking to cement his foothold in the game. Complex spoke with Lupe about the unexpected release, with the rapper expressing happiness that it ultimately came to see the light of day.
“We recorded this single back when I was just starting out,” he explains. “Chill was heavily involved in the early days of my career, and I’m glad he’s highlighting it with this new project.”
Lupe Fiasco’s business partner Charles “Chill” Patton (with whom Fiasco launched 1st & 15th Entertainment) decided to open the vaults for a blast from the past. “We recorded ‘Run Game’ a little later,” Chill continued. “Right now I’m working on some new projects, and whenever I work on something new I look back for inspiration. When I rediscovered this track, I knew we had to release it from the vault for the ‘Chill’s Spotlight’ playlist. Each month we’ll be dropping more tracks from Lupe and other F&F-affiliated artists as part of ‘Chill’s Spotlight,’ so stay tuned for more dope music that hasn’t been heard before.”
