Lu was constantly spinning next to his dad, who was teaching karate, and thus got on the tatami. In addition to him, the family had 8 more children. Lupe was born and raised on the West Coast of Chicago to an African drummer who was also an engineer, teacher and owner of a karate school. Renowned rap artist Jay-Z has described him as "a breath of fresh air" in modern hip-hop, which is very different from the lyrical-centered hip-hop of the 90s with its general audience focus and glamor.

At the 50th Grammy Awards he won the Best Urban / Alternative Performance for his song "Daydreamin '" with Jill Scott.
