Lupe Fiasco
Friday June 26, 2009 (5:30pm)
Grant Park
601 S Michigan Ave
Note:
The free show at Grant Park has been canceled. However, Fiasco performs at the Chicago Theatre tonight, with Lady Sovereign, at 9:30pm.
Chicago's own Lupe Fiasco returns to his roots for a free concert as a part of the Nike 6.0 BMX Open, the two-day local leg of the traveling action-sports fest Dew Tour. Fiasco's blow-out success from his 2007 release The Cool has brought the star to new heights, breaking free from his label as "Kanye's prodigy" and creating his own creative persona anchored by quick-witted lyrics and a penchant or adding soul and R&B touches to his not-too-jazzy hip-hop beats.
