So die erste Review ist draussen die sich mal nicht nur auf die nackten Weiber von Beecroft bezieht!
The album, which he completed over three weeks in Hawaii, is unlike anything Kanye has done. He happily classifies it as “pop” featuring heavy drums and pulsing electronic sounds. “People think pop is bad, but Michael Jackson was pop and who can compare to him?” Kanye asked, adding that he wants to categorize the album under “pop” in iTunes. Even though it was hard to make out lyrics over the booming system, we believe we heard Lil Wayne and Young Jeezy rapping on two tracks. The raw and revealing album puts Kanye on another level of artistry and a few strokes away from genius.
Responding to reviews, the Louis Vuitton Don said, “I don’t give a **** if it’s hot or not, it’s from the heart… Would you judge a grandmother’s love? Give it two-and-a-half mics out of five?” Kanye said that he went to the Def Jam label heads and expressed how important it was that this album was released this year. He didn’t care if it wasn’t on the schedule or if they wanted a holiday push. He mentioned that he does have another album coming in June and he may be singing or rapping.
