Lupe Fiasco x Travis Barker – Joaquin Phoenix [Tags]
Lu and Trav connect for a dedication to the actor turned fake rapper (perhaps), which appears on Travis’ new mixtape/project, Let The Drummer Get Wicked. I assume the Full/No Tags will appear of Mr. Barker’s Give The Drummer Some album, which impacts March 15th. 05 5- Joaquin Phoenix
