'The Show Goes On' is a song by American recording artist Lupe Fiasco, released on October 26, 2010 as the lead single from his third studio album Lasers.[1] Prominently built on the bassline of Pachelbel's Canon, the song was produced by Kane Beatz, and the melody of the song was based on the 2004 song 'Float On' by Modest Mouse. Unlike Canon, which is traditionally in the key of D, the song transposes it to the G key. The song features backing vocals from JR Get Money. It was released to iTunes on November 9, 2010 and debuted at No. 57 on the Billboard Hot 100, eventually reaching a peak of No. 9. It was released in the UK on February 20, 2011. The song was a major point of contention for the artist and a reason for the lengthy delay of the album, making the title fitting; as Lupe was told unequivocally by record producers: 'If you don't do 'The Show Goes On', your album's not coming out.'[2] However, XXL named it 14th Best Song of 2011.[3] The song was nominated for Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song at the 54th Grammy Awards.

Background[edit]
Lupe Fiasco announced the name of the single at the Fiasco Friday protest on October 15, 2010. On that day, Lyor Cohen came down to play the single for the protest turned celebrating fan base situated outside Atlantic Records. In a NovaFM interview, he gave an analysis of the first verse. He went on to say, 'For them it was 'why is he talking about the record label, but it's still a great song. For me, I was like 'No, that's my therapy... To give you this song... Now you have to make it a worldwide smash. You have to play it on the radio... So every time you hear it, you're going to hear me talking about your ass.'[4]
On February 28, 2011, what the Complex magazine published an interview with Lupe that detailed the background behind the single.[5]
| “ | There's nothing really to tell about that record, to be honest. I didn't have nothing to do with that record. That was the label's record. That wasn't like I knew the producer or knew the writer or anything like that. That was one of those records the record company gave me, [they even gave me] stuff they wanted me to rap about. It wasn't like, 'Hey I did this and I went to a mountain and found inspiration and it was this'. [...] I had to do 'The Show Goes On', that was like the big chip on the table. I had to do it and it had to be the first single if the record was going to come out. | ” |
In an interview with The Adelaide Tribune, Lupe expanded further on his feelings toward the record.[6]
| “ | I was literally told for 'The Show Goes On' that I shouldn't rap too deep. I shouldn't be too lyrical. It just needs to be something easy on the eyes. Like a record company telling Picasso that we don't need these abstract interpretations of life, where people have to sit down and look at it and break it down. It was better to paint the Upper West Side lady and her poodle so everyone could look at it right away and understand what was going on. I felt like I was painting poodles. It's why in the first line of 'The Show Goes On' I paraphrase Johnny Rotten at the Sex Pistols' final show: 'Have you ever had the feeling that you were being cheated'. | ” |
