Ok, I'm sure that's lots of other stuff out today for #NewMusicFriday but...
#LupeFiasco and MIT released this weird-fascinating thing where Lupe is rapping about different pieces of public art on their campus, as on a walking tour.
Seven songs accompanied by pics of their sculptural inspirations:
Lupe Fiasco - GHOTIING MIT: Public Art

It's great so far, Lupe always wins.
But since I'm here, I'll note a few other releases this week in this thread.
Most obvious, already being played:
Alex Isley - WHEN (R&B-ish, neo-soul-leaning but more later-era Jill Scott than Badu)
Blu - Forty (hip hop, produced by August Fanon, long list of solid features including Kota and RAP Ferreira)
Word is a #SAULT album ("10") was temporarily showing up on services, then disappeared...
New Sault would have made my day!
