VIDEO: Lupe Fiasco – #1234 | Trilogy

LupeFiascoLupe Fiasco drops a new 13 minute controversial music video called “#1234” which covers three songs from last years  Food & Liquor II: The Great American Rap Album Pt. 1.  “Lamborghini Angels”, “ITAL (Roses)” and “Audubon Ballroom” all get the visual treatment and are packed with powerful subliminal imagery addressing socio-political issues, race, objectification of women, drugs, stereotypes, vanity, materialism and plenty other sensitive topics.

lupefiasco2At the center of Lupe’s cross-hairs is the culture of Hip Hop and the media’s influence on the public and young minorities who are programmed to embrace negative and persuasive imagery and carry out self destructive behavior.  Directed by Alex Nazari, “#1234” is definitely in a political class of its own with Lupe anxiously at the forefront to promote his agenda.
