Santa was nice enough to give me the new Kanye West CD in my stocking, and I've listened to it a bit at work/home the last few days, though not straight through. It is pretty cool. Different sounding than most hip-hop albums, but I'm digging it. I'm anxious to sit and listen to the whole thing straight through over the next break, but so far I'm a fan.

I have two young kids in my office and all they listen to is Kanye. I liked West's first album (I bought the CD which is rare for me) and also bought his sophomore album as well. However, I don't like the direction his music has taken. I hate that he now fancies himself a singer. The sound is too stylized and I am a big fan of electronica.
But despite his talent, and I admit he is talented, he's one of those rare entertainers whose personal views and ego won't allow me to like what he produces.
I haven't ventured into hip hop in a long time. I don't even like hip hop anymore and rarely follow it. Though I still check in with The Game, Jay-Z and T.I. Those are the only 3 guys currently producing tracks that I can listen to."Nobody listens to Turtle."-Turtlesigpic

You know how President Hinckley said he doesn't worry about those who pray? The same can be said for men who are self-aware enough to know when there's a life to be lived outside of the world of video games. - Anonymous

His stage setup was cool, though. Dug the video screen behind him.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

West has encouraged us to expect such a superhuman level of perfection from him, it was inevitable he would one day not be able to meet it.
That day was last Saturday, when West performed on Saturday Night Live. Dude did not sound good. He was more American Idol blooper reel than Grammy-winning polished performer.
