too true, some of my friends act like he killed someone, but hell, he didn't even really insult her so much as he just gave his opinion on a music video. yes it was out of line, but nothing to go crazy over.

Lost In The World is the best song on MBDTF. BY FAR.

djchameleon 02-06-2011 01:08 PM

Negative.

All of the lights is far superior in every way.

Those are all wrong

every other song kanye has ever done>monster

Just kidding, but that monster song is annoying, even as a single the chorus is too dumb and all the verses are half assed, INCLUDING nicki minajs which everybody seems to go ape**** over.

DJ you put devil in a new dress at the bottom? The samples in that are nice.

djchameleon 02-07-2011 09:11 AM

I really really really don't like devil in a new dress. Sure, he took a nice soulful sample for it but man. Every other song on the album is better than that imo.

Almost every song he does is a sample from a soul, blues or RnB track.

Yeah, my least favorite too.

Hey guys, I'm starting to notice... does Rick Ross just really suck?

the Rick Ross intro was put together last minute after the song was already done or close to it. He was supposed to have a verse but I guess West changed his mind so he made up that throwaway intro and it's retarded.

I said 'almost all of' not all.

joeyock 02-11-2011 02:17 PM

kanye is just too legit

KidCudi 02-12-2011 06:45 AM

Im not to sure on the ending for runaway, I skip that everytime it comes on

djchameleon 02-12-2011 06:46 AM

say what? when he's playing with the box? that's the best part of runaway.

KidCudi 02-12-2011 06:50 AM

The song? When he goes andy Adams or something and then the rest is just zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I had to re-listen to it because I forgot that part but yes you are right...it's awful.

I don't even listen to runaway when i'm replaying the album, I just skip to hell of life because it's one of my faves.

KidCudi 02-12-2011 06:58 AM

Have you seen the power video as well? What do you think of all that illuminati shizz

lol don't tell me you are one of those people that believe in the whole illuminati conspiracy theory

djchameleon 02-20-2011 11:41 PM

This is his latest video enjoy.




thanks Alfred

Alfred 02-20-2011 11:48 PM

I saw it on Youtube earlier. Anyways, I don't really like the video all that much, I think there's way too much of a focus on the text, and what is up with the little girl at the start? It has like no connection to the rest of the video.

djchameleon 02-20-2011 11:52 PM

yes it does! it has a connection to the song. the little girl have you listened to it? the whole song is about the little girl

the focus on the text only happens at the beginning and the end so i don't mind it.

Overall I love the video though.

I guess I just suck at finding videos on youtube because it's not up on there or maybe they took it down from there.

can you find it for me?

Alfred 02-20-2011 11:54 PM

Yeah, I get that the song is about the little girl... what I meant by that was she only appears at the beginning and then it's like they forgot about her the rest of the video... maybe I'm wrong though, maybe I need to re-watch.

Edit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAfFfqiYLp0

it's on his Vevo channel tho

djchameleon 02-20-2011 11:58 PM

I don't feel like they need to show her anymore because he's singing the song to/about her.

Alfred 02-21-2011 12:06 AM

never mind, i was wrong, there are glimpses of the little girl in the rest of the video

olleverett 02-24-2011 02:33 PM

I love 'All of the Lights' but, I've fallen in LOVE with the All of the Lights interlude. The piano is soooo soothing

Ben Butler 02-27-2011 05:16 AM

Kanye doesn't do it for me!

you are banished from listening to hip hop then and all the rest of your opinions are irrelevant.

I'm just messing with you though, You are free to have your opinions and like/dislike anyone you choose.

So can you go into details?

what is it about Kanye that doesn't do it for you?

Is there a main reason or several small reasons?

I don't know really, he just isn't any different to anyone else out there, he doesn't add anything, basically he's pretty standard/what you can expect and I find that to be a little boring. Hope I've clarified things for you!

whoa everything you said couldn't be further from the truth but that's your opinion and that's fine.

IMO, he's one of the few hip hop artists left that is being creative to a degree.

Basically you have no justification.

I feel you on this. I've never thought that he was that special. He's an ok producer and an ok rapper; just an average guy in general. I don't understand the hype he gets, but then again, I don't understand the hype of a lot of mainstream artists.
