October 29th, 2009 | Author: Andres Tardio

Lupe Fiasco [click here] is readying the release of his latest album Lasers. However, before this drops, he wanted to take a look back into his career from start to finish. In doing so, he decided to create a show for Fiasco fans. Remember to Smile: A Retrospective of Lupe will take place in Chicago tonight (Thursday, October 29, 2009).

Bobby Hundreds of The Hundreds [click here] recently shared some news regarding the event.

"Lupe and his band were shacked up in the recording studio late tonight, burning that midnight oil. Working on some new music, but rehearsing for this Thursday’s big show in Chicago," he said. "It’s basically a one-man show where Lu expounds about politics, religion, and other topics surrounding his life, spliced up with performances of songs he’s never done live before. He’s bringing back old mixtape tracks, B-sides, and other rarities that explain the rapper’s story from then ’til now. It’s gonna be quite the treat for the dedicated Lupe fan, and for now, this is the first and last time he’s gonna do it."

Fiasco's MySpace [click here] page is also advertising the show through its blog.


"Its going to be a visual trip into the mind, the meaning & the man behind the music. We'll be taking it back...WAY back....just to remind you where we came from...only to take you into the future and what is to come," the statement read.

The show will take place Thursday (October 29) and it will be held at The Congress Theater in Chicago.
