Provided to YouTube by Atlantic Records Kick, Push Lupe Fiasco Kick Push ℗ 2006 Atlantic Recording Corporation for the United States and WEA International. Kick Push was written by Lupe Fiasco, and can be easily mistaken as a song about moving a skateboard. However this song contains a hidden message. (Lupe is the man). When he is kicking, yeah he is. Fiasco covers a wide variety of subjects on the album. The opening track begins with Fiasco chanting the opening lines of the Qur'an in Arabic. The following track, 'Real', is a reflection of 'making music of which he doesn't have to be ashamed'. 'Kick, Push', the album's lead single, is about a young male and his love for skateboarding.

When a black person is half gangsta half skater. They'll wear krew jeans or other skate jeans with a hoodie and a hat with the sticker left on. They tend to be really good skaters. A lot of them wear vans, thanks to the pack. Ever since the rapper Lupe Fiasco came out with his song Kick Push any half gangster black skater is diagnosed with the disease. It's not really a bad thing to have it, it's just kind of funny. Many of the people who've got it are relativley hot.
Any black skater in skinnies, vans, a hoodie, and a hat definatley has lupe fiasco disease.

Get a 21 mug for your cousin James.

'Daydreamin'' is the third single taken from Lupe Fiasco's album Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor (2006) and features soul singer Jill Scott.

Background[edit]

The single is based on a sample of 'Daydream in Blue' by I Monster, a song that samples 'Daydream' by Gunter Kallmann Choir (which in itself is a cover, the original being written by The Wallace Collection). The song's lyrics depict an adventure being experienced through the eyes of a robot. The song's lyrics are also a critique of pop culture, especially of the current state of hip hop music.

The song was released in the UK and US on September 11, 2006; however, a download-only version was available one week earlier and charted at #46 (without any physical sales).

In 2008 'Daydreamin' won the Grammy Award for Best Urban/Alternative Performance. It was ranked the best rap song of 2006 by many publications. Civilizations 6 torrent codex.

This song was also featured in an AT&T commercial during May 2008 for a Samsung phone.[citation needed]

Music video[edit]

A music video was created for the song; it shows Lupe Fiasco at a record store, where he meets and befriends a robot. Jill Scott is shown in a video projected on the wall, singing with a flower in her hair in a manner reminiscent of Billie Holiday.

In popular culture[edit]

A further remixed version of I Monster's work is used in the 2016 episode 'eps2.0_unm4sk-pt1.tc' in Season 2 of the series Mr. Robot, which is often mistaken for the Lupe Fiasco version. The music that appears in the show uses parts that only appear in the 1998 song, and no vocals or changes from the Fiasco version are present.[2]
