So apparently it has leaked, but only the clean version which I'm not even going to bother with, will wait for the explicit leak. From what I hear from impressions Kanye overproduced some of his songs and earlier versions sounded better. That's unfortunate because I really liked some of the earlier leaked versions of the songs. There's a strong chance that I'll still love the album though.
I don't think this is a legitimate leak. Unless there's others out there, the ones I have seen are only 13 tracks while the REAL album has 18! Anyways, it must suck for an artist to have their album leaked. I rather I have 100,000 illegal downloads then have my album leak.
According to Amazon, the album has 13 tracks. http://www.amazon.com/My-Beautiful-...O6KW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1289517174&sr=8-1
First impressions: Album is very balanced, consistently quality throughout except for Hell of a Life which I think is all right but probably my least favorite track and Blame Game while it has a nice beat and all I am not feeling it as much as some. The Chris Rock part is annoying, it's pretty funny the first time you listen to it but after that I will be an annoyance.
I suggest everyone go download this week's GOOD Friday release called "Chain Heavy". Produced by Q-tip and featuring Kweli and Consequence. Great song and it's supposed to be on the album as an iTunes exclusive.
Nahhhhh, get these Good Friday songs. <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/uI3dPyYVQY4?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/uI3dPyYVQY4?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object> <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SGW-tWaUXXs?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SGW-tWaUXXs?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
fantastic album. I've been listening to it over and over since yesterday, listened through it multiple times already. Even better than Late Registration. And the best of the year so far.
