For Lupe Fiasco, inspiration is attained amongst high altitudes. Sometimes literally––the avantgarde MC has been known to climb Tanzania’s Mount Kilimanjaro for both charity and clarity––and other times, in the figurative form of great men’s greater work. Philosopher and linguistic scholar Noam Chomsky, scribe supreme James Baldwin, historian Howard Zinn, religious activist Malcolm X, have all contributed to the worldly perspectives of the man born Wasalu Muhammad. Yet, no icon has lent greater influence to the 30-year-old orator’s latest work than Baldwin. Jimmy’s masterful writings and truth unfurling documentaries like “Take The Hammer” supplied motivation for quite possibly Lupe’s definitive album, Food & Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album.
