FIASCO RAISING AWARENESS ABOUT WATER SHORTAGE

Rapper LUPE FIASCO is researching facts about the worldwide water crisis in a bid to educate fans about the problem.


Lupe Fiasco at The 5th Annual Black Eyed Peas Peapod Foundation Benefit Concert held the The Conga Room. Los Angeles, California - 05.02.09

The Kick, Push hitmaker was recently recruited by pop singer Kenna to climb to the 19,000-foot (5,890 metre) high peak of Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa to raise money and awareness about water shortage.

He'll join a team of adventurers including Justin Timberlake for the trek this Autumn (09) - and the mission has already inspired Fiasco to share his newfound knowledge about the crisis in a new rap.

He tells America's Elle magazine, "It's a universal problem; it's all mounting to the point where eventually there's no clean water left.

"If I did a song, it would be jam-packed with so much information, it would almost be like we fit the substance of an entire interview in three and a half minutes. To a dope-a** beat."
