Have Kanye and Em ever collabed on a track? I would like to hear that.

They were both on Drake's Forever.

drat I think Jay slays it with both verses, on Monster though he's just eclipsed by Nicki's amazing verse. But this is some awesome stuff from Jay especially after Blueprint 3 which I hated.

So just to solidify that Kanye is the weirdest person on this earth, you should read this snippet of him interviewing Rihanna for Interview.

Fergie really ruins the song for me. It's like Kanye tried and failed to get MIA, then tried Santogold, then finally said gently caress it and scraped the bottom of the barrel by asking Fergie to do an imitation of what she thought MIA sounded like. Goddamn, those lyrics are terrible to boot.

John Legend's lyrics on "Blame Game" is really something terrible too. Sucks because I actually think his voice adds to the song.

Wait are you telling me that is NOT MIA?

One of the projections in Houston got shut down by the cops last night. Everyone was ordered to leave or be arrested for trespassing.

That's why Kanye is so angry!

Yup some of them were shut down here in Austin as well because he didn't have a permit. Nice going dude!

^ that was pretty much me with MBDTF

Same. I liked some of his singles like Gold Digger and stuff but I didn't really start to like him until Good Fridays and MBDTF. This album is even crazier because I thought he would keep going more and more bombastic but instead he chose this and it's awesome. So good that he's experimenting, kanye never gets boring (wtt was for the most part, boring).

I listened to it a lot and it just wasn't doing anything at all for me save for a few tracks. :(

Also seeing people react to this album on facebook and twitter is hilarious. They literally don't know what to make of it or they're just calling it poo poo. Haha :allears:

After listening to the album a lot I still really like it, but you can definitely tell Kanye rushed the poo poo out of it (even confirmed in interviews). I wish he took a little more time to finish it because while it sounds great a lot of the lyrics are still bad but whatever its Kanye. The album is still a lot of fun to listen to and while its not really anything new, its pretty cool that Kanye went this direction.

And even if it wasn't "rushed", I don't think that it would've been Kanye's lyrics that would've changed much. He's always been average at best as a rapper with the ability to come up with some clever lines, and some really loving corny lines and that's what he is here. He just sells it a lot better than most rappers can (be it charisma, obliviousness, or whatever) and has the musical chops to surround his lines with top-notch production.

Oh yeah no doubt. Don't get me wrong here, I know Kanye is the corniest dude ever, but I the whole album feels rushed. But maybe that's just the point of the whole album. Also Can't Hold My Liquor is one of my fave tracks on this album now.

How about you actually give me a reason the horns in the song don't suck? All I've been getting is that they're just so obviously great and they make the crowd go wild. Well just because people mosh at a Family Values tour, that doesn't mean those lineups aren't comprised of bands riding some of the worst trends in rock. Those horns are monotonous as gently caress and completely flat-sounding. They're the most prominent element of a six-minute song and they sound like a moron's definition of avant-garde, taking something lovely and selling it as genius. You're really gonna sit here and tell me that anything made by Beats by the Pound is worth salvaging?
