Lupe Fiasco Launches “Endless LUP” Radio Station That Will Play AI-Version Of His Music

Lupe Fiasco is redefining the intersection of music and technology with the announcement of Endless LUP, an AI-driven radio station set to debut in 2025. Sharing the news on Instagram, the acclaimed rapper described the project as a groundbreaking fusion of artificial intelligence and his lyrical artistry. “Imagine a 24-hour AI-powered radio station trained on the nuances of my rapping abilities, meticulously designed to produce top-tier Lupe Fiasco songs,” he wrote. “Imagine this station airing exclusively in select locations, for limited periods, and accessible only through an actual FM radio.”

Lupe revealed that Endless LUP is the result of a collaboration with MIT. This initiative highlights his ongoing commitment to exploring new frontiers in music and technology, a passion that has also led him to Yale University, where he became a Saybrook Fellow in 2023, and to his most recent appointment as a professor of Hip Hop at Johns Hopkins University.
