Lupe Fiasco Explains How He Recorded His New Album With A Cheap Mic & GarageBand

If there's anything the last 15 years or so have taught artists, it's that they don't have to spend loads of money on studio time.

These days, there's a bevy of inexpensive recording equipment that one can set up in their home and still churn out a high quality sounding product. 

Lupe Fiasco knows what that's like because he tweeted about recording his new Drill Music in Zion album for pretty much nothing.

I “wrote” (I actually didn’t write it more like spoke it) & self-recorded “Drill Music In Zion” from scratch over the course of 72 hours, give or take some hours, only stopping to eat and sleep, entirely on GarageBand with a $100 USB microphone in my living room. #AddValue
