Well, it’s not really an “introduction.” Child Rebel Soldier consists of Lupe Fiasco, Kanye West, and Pharrell, and their first single, Us Placers, came out in 2007, so it’s a little late to be introducing anything. Us Placers appeared on Kanye’s Can’t Tell Me Nothing mixtape, and was listed as the number 43 song on Rolling Stone’s 100 best songs of 2007. CRS was also featured on the remix to Everyone Nose by Pharrell’s band N.E.R.D.
Apparently, the group is working on a full album (rumored name: The God Unwilling) due to be released sometime this summer. According to Lupe, CRS has already finished at least 4 songs. Kanye is the only one of the three currently working on a solo album, so hopefully they will be able to get together and get this thing done soon. Keep your eyes and ears open, because if this album is anything like Us Placers, it’ll be absolutely unreal.
