Lupe @ Virgin Mobile Fest
Lupe Fiasco's show has improved somewhat since the last time I caught his act about a year or so ago. The major change has been the addition of a full band. For his set on the South Stage, he dipped in and out of his two albums, the acclaimed Food and Liquor and the ambitious but muddled The Cool.
The music was punched up with more rock guitar, as Lupe bounded around the stage, shadowed by a hypeman. Still, there's something very businesslike about the Chicago rapper's show. Beyond all the hopping around and the rock-suffused music, there was something very studied about his performance, as if he rehearsed it in the mirror at home. That same calculated feel sometimes permeates his albums.
