Grammy-winning rapper Lupe Fiasco has delivered some unpleasant news. The hip-hop superstar went to social medial this past weekend and announced a couple big album delays.
Fiasco jumped on Twitter Sunday (October 16) and revealed multiple studio projects could completely miss 2016 releases.
It's a strong chance you wont get any new Lupe albums this year

Drogas Light & Drogas are fully recorded & sitting but clearances and mixing issues for Drogas are pushing us beyond realistic deadlines now

Last spring, Fiasco promised he would stop releasing albums after putting out his SKULLS effort.
UPDATE:
Still 3 albums this year. However "Roy" will NOT be one of them. The new titles are:
DROGAS
DROGAS light*
SKULLSThank you! 🤗

No.
SKULLS will be my last album.
There will be no more albums after the 2016 release of SKULLS.
