Lupe Fiasco Confirms “What You Want” is “Lasers” Single (Listen & Download)

With anticipation for Lupe's upcoming album "Lasers" reaching a fever pitch everything with the word "Fiasco" attached to it is being touted as a "Lasers" leak, even when it's not (see "Lean"). Not today. The Lupester himself confirmed today that "What You Want" is the second official single from the much hyped album ("I'm Beaming" was the first). Let the debate and speculation begin.

So what does "What You Want" say about how good or bad "Lasers" will be? Um...I'm afraid to say this, but on "What U Want" appears to be pretty blatantly ripping off Kid Cudi's style, right now to the slow, half-sun rhyme style. Why would Lupe, one of the most original emcees hip-hop has ever seen, cop another dude's style like this? You got me. If I remember correctly Lupe doesn't smoke up; maybe things have changed in the inhale department.

UPDATE: Lupe now says this is an "unfinished" version of the song, although unless by "finishing" he means writing a completely different song I'm not sure it changes my opinion much.
