“Kick, Push II“ is the fifteenth track from Lupe Fiasco's debut album, Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor, and serves as a continuation of the original “Kick Push”.

In an interview with A.V. Club, Lupe talks about the genesis of this sequel to his original “Kick, Push”:

“Kick, Push II” started out as a mix-tape record. I actually did it for MySpace. Where it was just supposed to be like, “Have you ever played Dungeons & Dragons?” How can I put it? It was like booster packs, extensions. Like, once you’ve beaten the game and played every level, it’s like a new level, instead of making a new game. It’s carrying on the storyline. So “Kick, Push II” is actually, like, digging into the characters. It gives you more of an understanding of why. You just got this blank story of the one character and what he goes through, and you’re introduced to his girlfriend and his crew, and then “Kick, Push II” gives you more of a personal understanding of who those people are. It wasn’t meant for the album. It just turned out we should put this on the album at the end of the day.
