Lupe Fiasco finally has a release date for the long-awaited Lasers album after a battle with his label.
The rapper, who just appeared with Pharrell Williams on Kanye West’s latest G.O.O.D. Fridays tune ‘Don’t Stop’, has reconciled with Atlantic.
He told MTV, “We just came to a reconciliation, saw both sides of the argument of what was going down, found a midway point that we can all agree on, and we're rolling.”
Atlantic were trying to tie him down to a 360-degrees deal, where they would get a quarter of his earnings from all his endeavours.
They negotiated, with extra support from fans who planned to picket Atlantic’s Chicago and New York offices, and Lasers finally has a release date, over 18 months later than originally slated.
Lasers will hit the streets on March 8 next year, and the first single will be released on October 26 through his website.
