Lupe Fiasco contributes to the New Moon Soundtrack

Lupe Fiasco has recently posted on his myspace about his contribution to the motion picture soundtrack smash ‘New Moon’.

"'Solar Midnite' is my first commercial release that I actually produced as well as wrote," he said in the post. "The 'New Moon' team asked me if I could do a song specifically for the film."

That invitation led to an opportunity that would make any "Twilight" fan's head explode: Lupe got to see "New Moon" before its November 19 release date. "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," he wrote. "I pulled in vocalist and bassist Graham Burris and acclaimed musician Matt Nelson to help fill out my vision musically and ... 'Solar Midnite' was born."

The New Moon Soundtrack is available in stores everywhere now. It’s also available to download from iTunes with exclusive tracks, including Lupe’s, ‘Solar Midnite’.
