Lupe Fiasco used 'Karate Magic' to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro



In the video above you can see how Lupe describes his Mt. Kilimanajro experience at the New York premiere of the documentary "Summit on the Summit: Kilimanjaro."


Lupe: "I guess it was one of them 'Karate Kid' moments, you know? I did martial arts for, like, 20 years. My father was a Grand Master for, like, 40 years before he passed. It's just one of those lessons that we were taught."

"We used to run in the snow barefoot, jump over cars, hang out of trees and do all types of crazy stuff, and that was just part of the training, to understand that it's you versus yourself."

"The terrain is always going to exist, it's always going to be there, and it's whether you are capable enough to go through it. Just some little mysticism right there, a little bit of that karate magic to keep the mind going."
