Tom Cruise persuaded rapper Kanye West to change his mind about creating a new theme for Mission: Impossible III by paying him a visit. The movie star was adamant West should be involved in the soundtrack and when the rap star announced he was too busy to play around with the classic theme, Cruise refused to take no for an answer. Cruise tells MTV News, "I'm a big fan of his work and we said, 'What's Kanye doing?' - 'He's busy, busy, busy.' So... I went by and he's got two songs that he wrote that are just unbelievable - he did a version of 'Mission: Impossible' and an original... It is 'Wow'. When you see an artist that you just respect and he's so talented. I was like, 'Man, I'd love to see what he's gonna do with this.' You've got to hear what he did with it. It's Kanye West and it's really extraordinary. I looked at him and said, 'Man, you killed it.'" Can we get a Tom Cruise graemlin saying "Man, you killed it." ??

    Lastnight he looked like a cross between Michael and Kool Moe Dee with the glasses and glove holding the grammy. And the outfit looks hella 70's Disco ginoish.

    Can't argue with Xenu, fact of life. John Legend is definitely nasty songwriter and damn good on the keys (Lucifer, etc) album's not bad, lots of Kanye beats. But what's the deal with Will.I.Am writers credit on 'Ordinary People', anyone know extent of his input?

    We wrote the song. period. I grew up with one of John Legend's managers and he told me that shit and I was like...

    He told me all this other shit about Will.I.am that really shook the hell out of me. Dude's like a secretly evil musical genius.
