gotta hear the CDQ, I’d give it three stars

You know Kanye isn’t infallible, the man doesn’t always gotta be perfect.

But, the other song that was performed live a couple posts ago seems to be over the top better than this one.

And…
For the Love of God…

this won’t play in the clubs, lollipop had a sick beat, lyrically it’s ass and a tootoo… Love Lockdown is just lame, like he’s doing it on purpose so he can have a new excuse to have a hissy fit, when he knows himself the track is lame…

aight, finally got around to listening. i think the song is dope as fuck, but truth be told i wouldn’t listen to it ~~twice~~ at all if it was written by Mickey Factz. but fuck it, same goes for everything in life, girls food etcs

you guys can’t front on the use of the heartbeat for the beat… that alone + lyrics = song is dope. Kanye’s always had good lines about women/love and plus the seperation with his fiancée means he’s gonna be talking some shit on here. a lot people won’t like it though, especially if this album is all love shit (like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33OLNn-8YJE). alotta people are gonna be mad

i won’t mind though… *steals Darth’s copy of Finding Forever while he’s distracted*

Harosa took the words right out of my ~~mouth~~ typing hands…this nigga on some Phil Collins shit. I knew after Graduation he would be on some full-on pop star shit, and this just confirmed it. Knowing damn well this nigga don’t sing like that…at least T-Pain had decency to come out of the gates on that auto-tune shit, but we’ve all heard Kanye try to sing before and it sure as hell don’t be soundin’ like this! If this is the direction Kanye’s going in, I might have to pass on this next album.

Hmm… Okay, I listened to it. The beat is okay, The chorus seems alright. I couldn’t make out a lot of the lyrics, but I’m sure they’re good. Kanye always has some shit worth listening to.

I bet this album is gonna be super high concept. This is all part of a bigger theme, bigger story. It just needs the proper songs before and after. I could tell he was going for something similar with “Drunk N Hot Girl”.. If you put “Goodnite” (with mos def) on it before DNHG and then “Bittersweet” after DNHG, it makes a whole story. I imagine those other 2 sons were left off the US retail because it sorta diverted away from the triumphant songs of the album.

Oh, wait, I forgot.. The NR haters are around.

*ahem*

Besides, do you really think after all the pressure of the Sales battle, the bonnaroo bullshit (they were on bs, not ‘ye), having certain critics not fully get the GITD tour, and…oh yeah, HIS MOM PASSING..that he was gonna come out with some upbeat, peppy shit?

For fucks sake, let dude be an artist. If he did the same shit as he did on either of the last 3, ya’ll would hate on THAT. Applaud the man for going in a different direction, if not different for planet earth, at least different for him. 99.9% of rappers find something that works and beat it into the ground with little variation, and that includes the rest of my favorites: Nas, Jay, Budden… They don’t venture completely out of their lane like ‘Ye does.

Give the man some credit and for the love of God, drop this uber-hater extraordinaire shit. We get it: You’ve got the most evolved taste in music ever. Let’s all agree that you’re the wittiest fucker on the planet, and then you can go play in traffic.

Yes, I just said “Go Play in Traffic”.

@ biz– honestly, I didn’t even think the autotune was bad. Weezy really plays aronud with that shit, but ‘Ye uses it sparingly, IMO.

i cant really comment since i was listening really low on my laptop speakers…but it sounds…interesting, to say the least. i look forward to listening to it tomorrow with some earbuds. im sure its some good ish (c) me going bonkers first time i heard stronger around this time last year. new kanye in the fall/winter is a tradition i can definitely get used to.

*goes back into retirement*
RiZE Says:

the performance is growing on me.

Doesn’t sound like he actually used autotune… its a different effect. Not a bad song, but like the other dude said, noone here would be feelin it if it wasnt by Kanye.

I doubt I’ll be bumpin it too much…

This shit just solidifies Kanye’s arrogance and huge ego. I really like the song but how are you gonna close the VMA’s with a song that no ones heard before and that is that much different from what people would expect. I mean he didn’t even do other songs before or after just one take it or leave it song. That takes some balls and in my opinion he pulled it off which is surprising considering he just stood there and had some drummers behind him the whole time.

Ye just made a regular song, not one that’s specifically hip-hop. maybe that’s why everyone is hating on it. As just a regular song from a regular artist, it’s not too bad. I could see this song becoming a club-banger…

I don’t condone this vocoder fukkery, although I know Ye using it because he can’t hold a note to save his life. Smh… this guy is using autotune and he still sings like Biz Markie.

I can’t hear the bassline. Without that, who knows. It could be a monster. Or it could be wack.

Hip-Hop lives and dies where the bassline intersects with the melody, sample and breakdown. Not where the Auto-Tune intersects with the voice.

MCs act like they don’t know.

@ Rey

Roger & Zapp didn’t use autotune. It was called a talkbox. Much different. Requires talent, and sounds much better.

^Glad somebody schooled this guy. Then had the nerve to say Troutman DIDN’T sound good over it… as if Computer Love didn’t outlast any of this wack shit that’s out now. Niggas infatuation with that man is unhealthy. Seriously. He could drank 5 chocolate milks and break wind for 20 minutes over one of his own beats and mofos would swear you down he is the messiah.
