U.S. Soccer has named Chicago-artist Lupe Fiasco as the Music Director and artist Futura the Art Director for the Men’s National Team’s 2014 FIFA World Cup campaign. The areas of the collaboration will include Lupe “creating Spotify playlists, in collaboration with his DJ group SNDCLSH, and handle in-game music programming during the Send-Off Series. New York native Futura will provide his own flavor that will include the official Men’s National Team World Cup poster, limited-edition skate deck designs and other limited-edition items. Futura’s signature style will be tied to the team during the U.S. MNT’s road to Brazil, and he will create two “live” works at Fan Appreciation Day in New York’s Time Square on May 30 and the U.S. Soccer Fan Fest in Chicago on June 16.” Hats off to Lupe and Futura!
