Lupe Fiasco's 4th album Food & Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album Pt. 1 was laden with the kind of social and political commentary that fans have come to expect from the outspoken Chicago rapper, and in a combined 13-minute video for the three tracks "Lamborghini Angels," "ITAL (Roses)" and "Audubon Ballroom"---directed by Alex Nazari--Lupe puts some thought provoking imagery to match his lyrics. The three-part clip begins with the credits, “Starring guns/drugs/bitches/money/jordans/fried chicken/watches/chains and subliminal messages" and ends with Lupe dancing in full KKK garb. But it's everything else in the middle that's really worth seeing. Watch above.

      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
