DONT OVERDOSE ON THE "COOL"

Lupe Fiasco! The name is very intriguing , and rings an unfamiliar bell to its origin. The name is derived from Spanish meaning "From The River Of The Wolf", and in some cases is short for the name Guadelupe. Fiasco, on the other hand meaning, a thing that is a complete failure, esp. in a ludicrous or humiliating way, which completely contradicts his caliber as an artist,which in this case would be, SUCCESSFUL. Back to the story. So im on my way back from work and i set my Ipod to Shuffle and the 1st track to bounce out was "BABA SAYS COOL FOR THOUGHT", which i havent heard in a while and remembered that been "cool" is not always so cool.
