Apparently Lupe Fiasco recorded his own version of 'Airplanes' featuring vocals from Paramore's Hayley Williams before passing on the now Grammy-nominated hit.

B.o.B picked up the track and featured Eminem on the hit single, off his debut studio album, 'B.o.B Presents: The Adventures of Bobby Ray.'

Lupe's success wasn't exactly hindered by his decision to give up the track -- his latest studio album 'Lasers' debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, earning the hip-hop artist his second Top 10 album and his highest entry on the chart. Lupe is also featured on B.o.B's album on the track 'Past My Shades.'

Listen to the leaked track below.
