Not my scene, and I own a few of his records
^
That’s actually Puff Daddy (or P. Diddy or Diddy or whatever the heck his name is today).
Also, things that are huge in one country aren’t always so big in another.
I don’t think Kanye is very big here in Oz. I have heard his name bandied round now and then in the press but other than that he is rarely mentioned.
Personally I don’t know what his music sounds like but that’s maybe because I rarely listen to commercial radio or tv. Or maybe I just mix with the wrong people.
I asked some people over the weekend at a bbq what they thought of Kanye or if they knew his music and only one person could honestly admit to knowing what he sounded like.
Maybe I’ll check out his music and get back…
Sad that Kanye West’s “Black Skinhead” sounds more like Ministry than Ministry does these days…

the music is defnitely good…too bad i can’t understand what he’s saying lol.
I just heard a couple of songs just now at a freinds house, he’s a big hip hop and dubsteb of a bro dude. But yea just now heard ‘black skinhead’ and ‘new slaves’, the instrumentation kinda has hints of industrial but its not.
The instrumentation itself is great, can’t stand Kanye’s voice though. His style of singing and voice really fuck it up fro me, really fucking nauseating. lol. His lyrics are atrocious to say the least as well.
Not bad though for what it is. Like another poster said earlier in the thread its nice to see that he can evolve and change his sound up, sign of a good artist. Now if he could just dump that Kardashian chick, that shit aint good for your image brah! lol

this is the second track he performed that night. i never thought i’d like kanye west :P.
I like Chuck D and Dr. Dre’s voices. They are clear and powerful, like a punch to the groin.
I completely agree. I think Chuck D’s voice is the better of the 2, actually.
Late,
grmpysmrf
Whoever said Kanye is jocking Death Grips is spot on.

The lyrics are good? lol Here’s a little snippit of lyrics from New Slaves “Fuck you and your Hampton house
I’ll fuck your Hampton spouse”… then he goes on about cumming on a blouse or something llol. I dont know. It’s not exactly groundbreaking or thought provoking. Pretty much fits in with todays typical rap lyrics.

haha it has some pretty good parts too? i mean, he’s basically ranting for 3 minutes. there’s lots of social commentary in there.
I don’t listen to him for his lyrical content. I like his music and production, which more than makes up for lyrics, etc. I could care less about his vocals, or the guests he has has on his albums.
I can’t be bothered to care about the social commentary of someone who decided to marry Kim Kardashian…not saying it’s right or wrong or that what he has to say is less valid because of it…I just personally couldn’t give a fuck about what he has to say…him marrying such a vapid icon for the empty cult of celebrity just renders his opinion null for me…
Kanye’s not married to her.
He just knocked her up . . .
Kim’s still technically married to Kris Humphries, the big mongoloid retard basketball player.
Anyone that touches Kim Kardashian deserves to get AIDS and then die. She is the most repulsive pile of slutwhore ever. I hope her idiot mulatto baby comes out of her gaping death hole and then chokes her to death with his umbelical cord and then shoots Kanye in the face with a bazooka.

Oh,ok…so he is married without the ring then heh…yeah,fuck these two…I now have AIDS just from talking about it…
I’ll take the aids just to fuck her on the ass.

Dude, that fat ass has had an infinite number of black schlongs crammed into it. You may as well warm up a bowl of chocolate pudding and dip your willy in that instead.
I didn’t see Ray J put it in there, so I don’t imagine she can take the BBC in there. Maybe mine will be just right…
Ahhh, the timeless debate . . . If a black dong goes in Kim K’s poop chute and no one is there to film it, did it really happen? Yes. It still happened.
As far as me believing…
I WILL REFUSE!!!
