Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

[Lamrock]

Links keep getting taken down, but there's the lead single to Kanye's new album. Not as catchy as his other lead singles upon first listen, but its definitely vintage Kanye. I actually liked 808's, but its great to see him back doing what he does best.

, but its great to see him back doing what he does best.

pissing people off?

[Lamrock]

Holy fuck that was an epic SNL performance of Power

[[Q]]

YO LAMROCK... I'M REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU... IMMA LET YOU FINISH.... BUT DOOBIE HAD ONE OF THE BEST THREADS OF ALL TIME!!


i've been listening to Power since it leaked in March or April and it still hasn't grown on me. Runaway (which he performed at the VMAs with Pusha T) is on heavy repeat. it's very 808s-like, which might turn a lot of people off. I wasn't a fan of 808s at first but it really grew on me.

[Lamrock]

Yeah, Runaway is awesome. It's similar to 808's, but with the swagger and vibe of classic Kanye. Great song.

[Fresh8]

My favorite Ye album is still College Dropout.

[Lamrock]

Yeah, Late Registration's better, but The College Dropout is also a classic.

[Fresh8]

Yeah, Late Registration's not as good as College Dopout. The College Dropout is a classic.

Fixed.

[J@3]

I hate his voice and Power is fucking terrible. I only ever liked one song he did, that Daft Punk rip one. That was good.

[Lamrock]

U mad?

[[Q]]

apparently it's called "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy".

[Lamrock]

Topic title fixed. Really hope this thing leaks early. (or at least gradually like 808's)

[[Q]]

there's a few songs out already (i think 3 or 4 have hit radio airwaves already)
leaks haven't been terribly early recently. 3-5 days max has been the trend.

[Doobie]

As many of you may know Kanye West is my favorite artist in the world. I liked 808's, Late Registration was my favorite album by him, but this album is shaping up to take the cake. I've read nothing but good things, and what has leaked so far is just amazing. I can't wait for this cd, most anticipated in a long time

[shadowgrin]

No shite Doobie. You make Facebook look like Twitter with your Kanye status updates and links.

[Doobie]

You know you like it Zan Shadow!! I always post the best shittt on facebook.

he's baaaaack

Runaway (movie)
http://www.vevo.com/watch/kanye-west/runaway-full-length-film/USUV71002509
warning: 34 minutes long

it's really cool. it's essentially an album preview. recognized a ton of tracks and didn't keep track of em all but i wouldnt be surprised if all of the songs off his new album are on the video

[Fresh8]

My buddy told me it was a waste of 34 minutes... however I might like it since I'm a fan.

And Doobie, respect for Ye being your favorite artist.

[Lamrock]

Very cool and worth watching. Love Kanye.

[[Q]]

i liked it. it was very artistic.

[Doobie]

All of the songs fromt he movie will be on the album, and there are like 2-3 missing... So appalled, monster, and Ye said there will be 2-3 bonus tracks on the album as well.. I liked the movie even though I have to admit Kanye isn't that good of an actor in the parts he has to talk..

[Lamrock]

Leaked today. Well, the clean version did... Couldn't resist downloading it though. Upon first listen, its good, but will need to grow on me a bit. Don't like the extensions on some of the tracks.

For those interested though, here's the clean version in high quality: http://megaupload.com/?d=UJ5VIRL9

[Doobie]

Rolling Stones gave it a 5/5... Haven't heard it yet, just Blame Game on a website and I feel like it's going to be my favorite track of the year.

[[Q]]

sweet. i'll still give it a listen. i still haven't listened to the new kid cudi yet, not really that interested in his stuff

[Lamrock]

It's only the clean version, but this is the AOTY. So epic.
