Drogas Wave
Drogas Wave (stylized as DROGAS WAVE) is the seventh studio album by American hip hop recording artist Lupe Fiasco, released by 1st and 15th Productions and Thirty Tigers on September 21, 2018. This album is a follow-up to his 2017 album, Drogas Light.
Lupe Fiasco announced the album on September 13, 2018, revealing its release date, cover art and track listing via Twitter.
The album is the second part of a planned trilogy of albums, with Drogas Light as its predecessor followed by Skulls, and was slated for a 2016 release with the two albums.
In a 2018 Billboard interview, Fiasco revealed the main idea of the project:
It’s about a group of slaves on a slave ship on their way to Africa to the West Indies and they are thrown off the boat. But they didn’t die. They stayed alive and they lived under the sea. And they dedicated their lives to sinking slave ships -- so they became this super, underwater force against slavery. It’s like a super-deep story that I am building on different fronts. But that’s the main idea and the source material for the album.
In a 2018 Complex interview, Fiasco said:
Drogas Wave is based on a story about a group of slaves that jumped off a slave ship transporting them from Africa. The slaves did not drown, and instead somehow managed to live under the sea. They spent the rest of their underwater existence sinking slave ships. ‘Drogas’ is the Spanish word for drugs. I made it an acronym which stands for ‘Don’t Ruin Us God Said’.
Because of reported leaks, the album release date was released a week early on September 21, 2018, instead of the initial release date, September 28, 2018.
