New Kanye anyone?

Post by RandomEyez » Thu Nov 18, 2010 8:49 pm

Assumin that everyone on here ain't "too cool" for Kanye, has anyone gave his new album a listen?

Heard it today and was pleasantly surprised.

Few duff tracks but on the whole a real nice piece of work.

And Nicki Minaj on Monster... Ooft!

Haven't listened to it yet. Payday is tomorrow for me. I'll be copping it as soon as I can.

I've been championing tracks like "Devil in a new dress" for a while, so anything like that
is welcomed. The 35 min video was ridiculously good too. It seems like a return to form
for Kanye.

Honestly I always thought his albums were boring as fuck and thought he was an arrogant idiot. I'm curious to hear it but really I don't think I can be arsed too much.

Is it this album that has the tune that samples 'Avril 14th' by Aphex Twin?

Exactly my thoughts, I never understood the hype around this guy. How can somebody like a character like that?

Aye, his arrogance makes him laughable at times but he makes some good music so i'll happily listen to it (Zomby anyone?? but lets please not let this turn into ANOTHER dicussion about him)

If you're not a fan of Kanye, chances are you won't like this but worth checkin anyway.

The track that samples the Aphex Twin tune is called Blame Game. Tis alright.

Lulz, that was what I was referencing. If the big man said it himself, must be true.

Zomby doesn't mumble annoyingly over the top of it his music sounding like a prick though

Kanye's alright. I've got The College Dropout and Late Registration. Nothing mindblowing, but he's not bad.
