i don't give a fuck if you dislike kanye west, this album is pretty good, it's worth checking out.

his ego is kind of annoying but this album makes up for it.

i suggest you kids check it out

His ego doesn't even bother me, honestly. He can back that shit up. :P

I've always really liked his style, but I never got around to actually picking up an album. I'll check this one out.

I dunno, I semi liked what I've heard from the album, but the autotune vocals grate on my nerves. He can't do tracks from this album live at all, you can check youtube for some of his live appearances doing tracks from the album live and see how terrible it can get with the autotune.

Sad Enough I'm into some of the tracks on this album. I went as bad as remixing one tune very bored one day.

Kanye West is certainly a lot better than some of the shit out there now.

He still can't sing, though.

Random observation about hip-hop in general:

It's all coming down to synths recently. Allll of the popular stuff anyway. Which I don't mind, honestly, but at the same time I miss the sampling that went on before.

You'll hear it every once in a while - that Live Your Life song with TI and Rihanna, for example. But even then, most of that song is synth-based.

What I like about Kanye is that he does both sampling and the synth stuff, and he does both well.

wassup rocker!

i read kanye west say something like "I will go down of the voice of this generation for this decade."

i think that is quite a foolish assertation to make, and i would rather not be represented by him as my voice. i can't stand it when someone considers themselves a genius just because of their marketability. kanye is not a very good singer and does not rap well either.
