Oh that Kanye!

[Francis]

So I don't know if this has been posted elsewhere on CW, but Kanye West recently kind of apologized for calling George Bush a racist.

A lot of people think Matt Lauer went too far with this interview. He really pushed Kanye hard.

Others can't understand why there's some empathy for George Bush just because he's not President anymore. All these soft interviews with Lauer seem to be covering up what a horrible President he was.

Some people think Bush deserves to be recognised, but Beyonce would make one of the greatest Presidents of all time.

Kanye's a bit of a douche, and pretty full of himself, but Matt Lauer is ****ing scum. Such a dick.

"So what you're saying is you're sorry"

Stfu

 

[Sanz]

Only person who comes out looking much worse in this whole situation is Lauer. Bush is a ****, nothing that he says/does is a surprise and Kanye is a **** too.

 

[duffer]

Really looking forward to his next album. Going to be massive.

 

[Top_Cat]

The man knows how to produce and promote, that's for sure. God, with that sort of push behind us, you'd see my band at the Grammys within a year.

 

[BoyBrumby]

There seems to be a concerted effort to rehabilitate Bush suddenly. Less than two years out of office and the right-leaning sections of the meedja expect everyone to forget he was an arseheaded lackwit who lead his country into two unwinnable wars and had the biggest financial crisis since 1929 happen on his watch.

 

[duffer]

His new album is some next level ****. The man delivered.

 

[Julian87]

West is such a nobody.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

His new album is some next level ****. The man delivered.

Agree, best since Dropout.

 

[Marcuss]

Kanye's a ****ing hero.

 

[duffer]

Gorgeous

zomg Raekwon

 

[DingDong]

crazy crazy album. but it is a bit disappointing that he used a lot of g.o.o.d friday stuff instead of brand new songs

 

[duffer]

Was going to ask what you guys thought was the best track on the album but I really don't know.


Gorgeous - sick
Monster - sick
Runaway - nice
Blame Game - nice
All of the Lights - nice
Power - nice.

Just a really strong album. Straight up Kanye.

Got to be gorgeous

 

[Ikki]

I haven't listened to the whole album properly but I really like "Dark Fantasy".

monster is the weakest one on there imo.
gorgeous is great.
blame game is good but i hate the chris rock bit.
all of the lights- great track but a bit sick of it already.

so appalled is the best one for me. rza at the end seals the deal.

Best album of 2010, tbh. In an era when so many in the music biz are saying albums are dead, it's nice when someone puts out an actual album instead of 4 or 5 tracks + whatever they had saved on their laptops.

Liked Lost In The World myself.
