    Kanye trying to be T-Pain ?

  • First Foxy Brown goes deaf, then Kanye goes (tone) deaf.b,121b,121Sad, really.

  • dude needs to adjust the usb on his Microwave, there's mad wobbles and drop-outs.b,121b,121but seriously, even a enthusiastic 'Ye fan like myself had to turn this off. The live version was way better.

    He was singing this at the VMA's as the final act. I gave him the benefit of the doubt since it's Kanye, but this is pretty bad.

    who?

  • It will one day be revealed that this song was written for a man.

    I didn't see the VMAs so this is my first exposure to it and, inviting teh clown as I am, I don't absolutely hate it. It's not really my thing but once I got over expecting it to be a rap song it's not too bad.b,121b,121It's got a real old house sound to it with it's hook and, clown away again please, I would expect it to sell very well in Europe at least where the market for music like this is still pretty massive and where Kanye has crossed over from the rap market to the pop market already. b,121b,121He's going to need to sort out the levelling though first.

    font class="post"1b,121b,121This is going to be my go-to line when asked what I think of shitty new music.

    Touche.b,121b,121Giving it a second listen now with the benefit of being properly awake and the mastering is horrible, the singing is far from the best and the whole thing needs polishing but I still can't entirely hate on this track.b,121b,121It helps if I don't imagine Kanye slapping himself on the back the whole time he's recording it though. A taint of smugness certainly doesn't help.

  • img src="http://static.flickr.com/14/88882986_70b4b4e91a.jpg"1 b,121b,121This song is terrible but what really surprises me is the production. Aside from the 808, EVERY single aspect of the song sounds awful. His auto singing, the drums and claps...even the piano sounds bad. Just a complete train wreck of music and production. b,121b,121This seems like it's a joke...

    ew i'm eating -djannab,121b,121b,121Maybe this is just some sick joke of his to see what kind of shit he can produce and how many people buy it. Sounds like he woke up from a night of partying listening to lots of depeche mode and decided to make a song, while he was still drunk. I just can't get over how bad the vocals sound. Kanye, what happened?b,121

  • oh my god. this is embarassing.b,121this sounds like a horrible demo that I'd try to keep from getting out to the public, like the time someone got ahold of an unfinished Brittany Spears track and posted it on the internet. It was like comedy gold for radio stations.

  • Listened to the song about 10 minutes ago. Didn't like it. It's been stuck in my head ever since. It's definitely catchy. It'll definitely blow up. Especially with the right video (of which I'm sure the planning is already under way).

  • Damn, y'all really need to fall back from posting pictures like that. Nobody wants to see a chick vomiting, especially at 9:45 in the morning. 'Scust!

  • Yeah, seriously. Have mercy on those of us nursing significant hangovers. That schitt is unseemly.b,121b,121b/wb,121b,121img src="http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2008/SHOWBIZ/Music/09/11/kanye.west.arrested.ap/art.west.gi.jpg"1

    Thursday morning hangover at the J-O is kicking my ass right now too. I need something greasy to eat...pizza sounds good.b,121b,121And I didn't even do shit last night. Just drank vodka alone and watched The Wire.

  • As I said at FudgeFM, Kanye West was arrested this morning but not for creating "Love Lockdown".b,121b,121More news to come (if anyone cares).

    font class="post"1b,121Sorry, that's just what best described my immediate reaction to that track, words wouldn't suffice. I'll try to self edit next time.
