Not too long ago, Lupe Fiasco was complaining about his album being held hostage by Atlantic Records. Now, thanks to threats from Twitter hacktivist account @TheAnonMessage, Tetsuo and Youth will be releasing in December. The alleged status has since been deleted, but read:
@TheAnonMessage: @AtlanticRecords If you do not comply, we will launch a direct attach against your website, your associates, and your executives.
Below, we’ve included Twitter interactions between Lupe Fiasco, Atlantic Records, and TheAnonMessage.

Music very much impacts the way people relate to themselves and when people are fed basic messages, they become as such. @AtlanticRecords
