Before the official UK charts are published and revealed on Radio 1's chart show (), a pre-chart indicator is published (called the midweek chart) that just bascially gives you a picture of where records could end up in the final chart and according to this, Mr Lupe Fiasco's single Superstar is set to be wihtin the top 5 of this week's official top ten. If this happens, there's no doubt its a good look, especially for Lupe fans and those people who like HipHop a little more organic and lyrical. UK - don't forget who put you up on the Fiasco Phenomenon...

I caught up with Lupe when we were over in New York before Christmas where he revealed that the supergroup he's part of Child Rebel Soldier (with Pharrell and Kanye) were gonna be releasing either an EP or Album before the end of 08 (CUE THE VIDEO...!!)

Before he kick pushed off into the sunset, DJ Semtex sat down with him and got him to break down his album 'The Cool'. Listen again before this friday by clicking here.

**UPDATE - Seems that Lupe made it to #4 in the National charts - a damn good result!!**
