Nice. seen him both times he has come to Aus. Last time November last year - PERFECT production. 808's is truly a take note and really listen to album. Not a background music type record. It is written to be REALLY listened to. It probably helps that I was going through almost the exact same life circumstances as Kanye was when he wrote the songs. They have become an anthem to one of the most rollercoaster years of my life.
Yea I can see the message he tries to portray but I can't really relate to most of it. Btw I passed up on the Glow in the Dark Tour to watch the Rockets on TV to lose to the Jazz in Game 6. I had a free ticket and passed it up. Passed up on Heart of the City Tour too. Never again passing up on my 2 favorite rappers.
Same here. I was one of those that actually liked the album because I could relate to the songs and the lyrics.
Sorry, but Jay-Z is not God. These rappers are grown ass men. They shouldn't be living their lives by what Jay-Z says.
I dont even like Jay Z all that much, to me he is overrated. I like the Blueprint, but it has to be said that Kanye's finger prints are all over that album.
He got the idea to write the song from Kanye. That's what makes it even funnier when people say he's ripping on Kanye.
This song just killed all of rap maybe nsfw.. <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/R7yfISlGLNU&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/R7yfISlGLNU&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>
I think Kanye produced the song and he was mentioned in the song: "Ye told me to kill yall to keep it one hundred"
wtf Kanye West and Lady Gaga? Why the hell would Kanye agree to have Lady Gaga open for him. Thats terrible.
I don't know. You're saying Kanye burst into the booth? Don't completely believe that, but interesting nonetheless. Agreed with the props to No I.D. for the production, though. Interesting that Jay using both him and Kanye since he mentored Kanye.
It seems to me Kanye doesn't even want to rap. The auto-tune gives them the ability to "sing". Hopefully it's a fad that will pass.
