    Lupe Fiasco is generating more hype for his upcoming tour with a brand-new song.

    On Tuesday, July 23, the Chicago rapper debuted a new song to promote his forthcoming "Samurai Tour." On "TICKETS," Lupe spreads the word about his string of shows coming up in the fall. He promises to rock the stage into the late night hours in an atmosphere that will be free of "posturin' or politics." He also teases the setlist for the tour which will include hits from his previous albums like Food & Liquor , The Cool , Lasers and Drogas Wave .

    "We gon' party parts of Cool, also keep it Wave-like," Lupe spits. "And you gonna get some food—Lasers what they ain't like/But that ain't right/'Cause live, I'ma show you how that muthaf**ka bang like a gang fight."

    Lupe's latest tour comes in support of his recent album Samurai. His longtime friend and go-to beatmaker Soundtrakk produced the entire album while his trusted manager Charles “Chill” Patton worked by Lupe's side for the first time since he was released from prison last year. Lupe recently told BET that he wrote the album from the perspective of the late Amy Winehouse as if she were a battle rapper.

    Lupe's got tickets for the low to all 19 shows. The tour will feature opening performances from DJ Smokey and Billy Blue . It will kick off in New York City on October 3 before it hits up other major cities like Philadelphia, Boston, Cleveland, Denver, Atlanta and more. He'll wrap things up in Los Angeles at The Novo on November 24. Tickets go on sale this Friday, July 26.
