Lupe Fiasco liberates the newest track from his SNDCLSH project with DJ Sky Gellatly as "Thieves" is another addicting dance track that you can hear for yourselves above. This is the official, new version of the song, that is the duo's second official release. The rise and fall of the production (DJ Kue again providing some contributions as co-producer to Lu & Sky) is brilliant and Lupe's vocals are like an instrument as well. With every release, I find myself putting SNDCLSH on repeat and I'll certainly be doing the same with "Thieves". Instant *Tibs Fav.

Lupe Fiasco took to Twitter to announce a flurry of upcoming singles and albums due out in the next six months or so. Definitely looking forward to all of these; we had known of FL2GARApt2 for next spring, but not SNDCLSH and the Japanese Cartoon re-release (ITJOTLOD still gets some good run in my shuffle). Lots to look forward to Lupe fans!
