While surfing around on the internet last night I landed on the movie site of the film Street Kings. I’m a fan of the works written by David Ayer and I like Keanu Reeves as an actor as well. What really grabbed me on the website was the music in the preview. After some hard-core googling I found that the words during the first part of the trailer were coming from none other than Lupe Fiasco. The Little Lupe Fiasco? I appreciate all music but don’t really keep up with any particular genera which is why I appreciate music that grabs me because I feel that it comes from me genuinely “feeling” the music.

What makes the songs “Little Weapon” and “Put You on Game” so intense is that Lupe raps from the first person view of a African child soldier and a LA gang banger. I’m sure he’s not the first to do this but still I think he executes it very nicely with some lyrics that should hit anyone who listens deep in their mental cavity.
