Lupe Fiasco Says He WIll Release Three Albums In 2016

Lupe Fiasco low-key had one of the better rap albums of the year in Tetso & Youth and heading into 2016 the Chicago rapper has not signs of slowing down. Lupe in Twitter yesterday revealed that he had big plans for next year, sharing that he wanted to release four albums during the calendar year. Like Kanye West and SWISH, he doesn't want questions about the three LPs.

According to a series of Tweets, Drogas appears to be the first album in the pipeline. He did share that "Mural Jr." would be a track included on Drogas, which seems like it could be a sequel to "Mural" from Tetso & Youth.

This comes just a few days after Lupe announced another album slated for release in 2017 according to a Tweet. On the 8-year anniversary of The Cool, he shared that he has plans to release The Cool 2 in the winter of 2017.

All of this information should be taken with a grain of salt, known Lupe's release history and the tenuous relationship he has with his label. In the past he has boasted big plans of double albums with quick follow ups, like after Food & Liquor II, but those never came. Fans hope that Lupe does in fact get everything together to release three complete albums in 2016, but shouldn't hold their breath for all three. Stay tuned for any updates on the sequels to Drogas or when the three LPs might drop.
