Lupe Fiasco widens the world of his album with the deluxe edition ‘Samurai DX,’ adding the songs “SOS” and “High Note,” plus new remixes of “Samurai,” “Palaces,” and “Bigfoot” with Troy Taylor. The vinyl edition includes instrumentals that spotlight the detail in Soundtrakk’s production. The project expands one of Lupe’s most personal eras while reflecting his recent creative stretch that includes the Samurai Tour, work at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and his role at the Peabody Institute. This edition shows an artist creating with focus, depth, and a clear sense of direction.
