I still think his albums gonna be really good, if there is more stuff like "Devil In A New Dress" and "Power" and to a lesser extent "Monster" on there i'll be happy. That "Runaway Love" track was doo-doo, the jam w/ Charlie Wilson, Common and Pusha was pretty good too.
I love "Late Registration" and "Graduation" though i never could get into his Debut, hope he comes through.
The other day, I read that "going digging" to Kanye West meant taking a trip to Tower Records and buying up a stack of soul CD's from the 70s. Based on the guy's output over the last five years, I don't doubt that at all. Say what you want about this "new era of beatmaking" where the original source doesn't matter.....but I can't take a hip-hop producer seriously if he doesn't enjoy digging for records.
Don't get me started on him sampling drums from other hip-hop records. Before he jacked Pete Rock's drums from 1992, he was on a roll with the "BOOM, boom-CLAP" from Dr. Dre's "Xxplosive."
My old roommate had a playlist of over TEN SONGS that Kanye used those drums on. Shit was sad. Here's a quick example:
Kanye - "WOW how did Dre get his drums to sound like that? This is crazy, yo.....this is crazy. Hold up...."
Oh and fuck that "DOES IT BANG??" argument. Kanye West is lazy and I've always hated it. At least he's gotten better on the mic.

I want to hate, but I love Solstice so much, it's hard to hate on anything being said over it. You could put Tay Zonday on Solstice and it would bang.
Charlie Wilson though.....eeeehhhh.....why? Wasn't once enough?
