Lupe Fiasco & Ed Sheeran 'Old School Love' [LISTEN]: New 'Testuo & Youth' Track Collaboration Featuring 'Lego House' Songwriter, Tour Dates

By Jon Niles, Mstars Reporter | Oct 14, 2013 02:35 PM EDT

Lupe Fiasco has just dropped his first single off of his fifth studio album, Testuo &Youth due out early 2014. This first track, "Old School Love," is actually a collaboration with 2013 breakout artist Ed Sheeran. The "Red" tour opener lends his vocals to the catchy chorus of this hip-hop track, really making the song more memorable.

Sheeran sings: "As long as I'm here, as long as your with me/Give me that old school love right now."

When asked how this collaboration came together in a recent interview, Ed said, "We have the same A&R in America ... and, he just gave me about seven beats and said write choruses to all of these beats. I'm a massive Lupe Fiasco fan, so it's cool."

Fiasco is planning a 32-city tour in support of his new music, starting in November.
