Love Letter to the Beat

by Lupe Fiasco ft. Alicia Keys: I figured out what happened with my first I’m Beamin post. Well, more like my boyfriend reminded me vs. me figuring it out. He told me that I accidentally deleted the post and I said f*ck it lol. I just laughed and thought to myself hmmmm that sounds like something I would say. I felt like I had to remind yall of I’m Beamin because this new track from Lupe is banging too! His Lasers album is going to be straight fire based upon these couple of leaked tracks. And I’m assuming these tracks are on the album but he hasn’t released his official track listing yet… This track with Alicia Keys is a great song that will make you get up and move and highlights each artist outside of their “predictable” zone. It’s rare to hear Alicia on an uptempo joint but this is hot. This is one of my favorite songs at the moment and it will definitely be on my summer playlist! P.S. Who knows who this guy is with Lupe in the pic below?!? He made me chuckle.

I’m Beamin

by Lupe Fiasco: I’m so mad at myself right now. I REALLY thought I posted this video a couple weeks ago. Matter of fact, I’m positive I did but I don’t know what happened to it :( It’s as though the post went poof! – and disappeared into thin air. I was about to post another Lupe track, but didn’t feel right with this one missing. So, yall know my ordered brain has to post this again.
Since I posted the video the first time, the official video has been released. It’s a good look with a lot of creativity and features some cute lil kids. The track itself is a slightly different mix at the beginning and when that beat drops its ON! That ish get me so hype before he starts with “I get my energy from my inner g…”
