Kick, Push is the first single from Lupe Fiasco's debut album, Food & Liquor. It has been referred to as "a needle in hip hop's haystack of complacent songs." [1]

The song's content deals with the skateboarding culture, specifically the story of a young boy who spends all of his time working on his different tricks. As he grows and develops, he forms together his "crew" of friends who "kick and push and coast." This track is included in EA Sports' NBA Live 07 and Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam.

The song features a sample of "Bolero Medley" By Celeste Legaspi
