Lupe Fiasco has finally released his hotly anticipated mixtape, Enemy of the State: A Love Story. Lupe calls Enemy a “cassette” because it is intended to be heard in a continuous fashion. He wants you to forget that CD players and MP3 players introduced the “skip” button, but honestly, why would you want to skip any of these tracks?

On this rap cassette (the first of its kind?), Lupe is heard rapping over some slick samples by some of his musical heroes including: Radiohead, Jay-Z, Timbaland and Lil Wayne. Read on for the full tracklists and two ways to download:

Tracklist:
01 Intro
02 The National Anthem (Radiohead)
03 All The Way Turnt Up (Travis Porter)
04 Fireman (Lil Wayne)
05 Interlude
06 Angels (rmx) (Dirty Money)
07 So Ghetto (Jay-Z)
08 Say Something (Timabaland)
09 Thank You (Jay-Z)
10 The One (Slaughterhouse)
11 Popular Demand (Clipse)

Yeah, I gained like 5 pounds.

It’s nice to have some new Lupe, but when is his third album coming out? I’ve been hearing about it since The Cool leaked.

That Radiohead sample is T**H**E****T**R**U**T**H**!!

It’s one of the sexiest guitar riffs ever. So simple and slick.
