PLEASE SUPPORT THIS WORK: https://www.patreon.com/mannyfacesLupe Fiasco, now a rap professor at Johns Hopkins' Peabody Institute, continues his work bringing hip hop into academia, but his "Endless LUP" collaboration with MIT to create AI-generated Lupe Fiasco rap songs has ignited controversy. Critics argue that using AI to produce music, especially from a cultural icon like Lupe, risks further gentrifying hip hop and stripping it of its authentic roots. This excerpt from our full live broadcast dives into the ethics of AI in music, the intersection of technology and culture, and the broader implications for the future of hip hop education.----Hip-Hop Can Save America! with Manny Faces is a Manny Faces Media production, in association with The Center for Hip-Hop Advocacy.LINKS AND RESOURCES:SHOW WEBSITE: https://www.hiphopcansaveamerica.comON YOUTUBE: https://www.hiphopcansaveamerica.com/watchMANNY FACES: https://www.mannyfaces.comNEWSLETTER (free!): https://mannyfaces.substack.comSUPPORT QUALITY INDIE HIP HOP JOURNALISM: https://www.patreon.com/mannyfacesManny Faces Media (podcast production company): https://www.mannyfacesmedia.comThe Center for Hip-Hop Advocacy: https://www.hiphopadvocacy.orgSPONSORS / FRIENDS:The Mixtape Museum: https://www.mixtapemuseum.orgHip-Hop Hacks: https://www.hiphophacks.comHip-Hop Can Save America! is produced, written, edited, smacked, flipped, rubbed down, and distributed by Manny Faces.

In this episode of The Handsome Beatdown Podcast, we break down the controversy surrounding Lupe Fiasco's latest innovation—Endless Lup Radio, an AI-driven project built off of his voice, rap style, and thought processes. While Lupe has always been a forward-thinker in hip-hop, this project sparked heavy debate when strategist ABSAFCKNLUTELY openly questioned its implications, leading to an unexpected and heated fallout. We explore both sides of the argument—ABSA's valid concerns about AI's role in creativity, originality, and the future of human artistry, as well as Lupe's defense of innovation, ownership, and pushing boundaries in hip-hop. Is AI-powered rap the next frontier, or is it a dangerous step toward automation in an art form rooted in personal expression? Tap in as we unpack the biggest talking points in one of the most polarizing debates in modern hip-hop. #LupeFiasco #EndlessLupRadio #AIinHipHop #RapTechnology #HipHopInnovation #LupeVsABSA #ArtificialIntelligence #FutureOfRap #HipHopDebates #TheHandsomeBeatdown #RapCulture #LupeFiascoAI #HipHopPodcast #MusicAndTech #AIControversy #HipHopFuture Shirts NFTs & Downloads https://www.teepublic.com/user/thebeatdown/albums/361684-schwebel-room
