Although superstars like Kanye West and Jay-Z have collabo'd with him and co-signed him, they aren't Chicago rapper Lupe Fiasco favorite rapper of all-time.

However, the artist he says is might surprise you.

In a message posted on his official MySpace page (MySpace.com/LupeFiasco) last week, Lupe revealed that revealed that he's created a new song, specifically for the upcoming "Twightlight" film, "New Moon," which he says is inspired by his fave "rapper" -- Anthony Keidis of the rock band, Red Hot Chili Peppers.

"The song basically deals with the chaotic love story that takes place between the characters," the rapper said of "Solar Midnite," the track he created for the film. "It's more on the rock side of my musical catalog and comes straight from my die hard fanhood of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Anthony Keidis, one of my FAVORITE RAPPERS."

According to Lupe, he was asked by the team behind the film to create a track for them. So, he was able to preview an unfinished version of the film to draw inspiration, and then went to work.

"They invited me to an early screening of the unfinished film from which I pulled different elements that I thought would translate into a great song," explained Lupe. "I pulled in vocalist and bassist Graham Burris and acclaimed musician Matt Nelson to help fill it out my vision musically and joila 'Solar Midnite' was born."

The "New Moon" soundtrack is available on iTunes now.

"The only and official record of one of the most highly anticipated tours of the year.
Including a USB drive of previously unreleased music, the book is both a memento of the tour
and an object conceived by the artist himself—entirely collectible on its own.
Appearing alone on stage for almost the entirety of the show with huge Star Wars-inspired
spacescapes behind him, West’s Glow in the Dark Tour is both a musical and a visual odyssey
of Kanye as a true pioneer. This deluxe landscape volume promises to be yet another creation
of this multifaceted artist and will include his original sketches and concepts; 3-D models and
construction of the stage; concept art for "J.A.N.E."; costume designs (including his Grace
Jones-inspired outfits for opening act Rihanna); and blog of his journey.
The gatefolds and special edition USB drive put this artist’s innovative and signature
stamp on an already visually radical piece."

Here's some that "LupEND" shit.
LISTEN.
I really hope this is NOT the end (really!).

This picture has little to do with the
new remix of "Fast Car" featuring Wyclef
Still, the picture is hot so I had to post it.

I'm anxious to see this video--this is one of my top three tracks from The Cool.
Isn't it REALLY ironic that T.I. and Jeezy are on the SuperStar Rmx? I mean seriously.

Lately I'm really really introspective.
I don't have shit to say. The songs on repeat between
my ears keep my dendrites occupied. I like to think
of it as a mental mixtape.
