Happy Face 29 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 (edited) What do people think of Kanye Wests new album then? It's getting raved about all over (Rolling Stone gave it 5 stars and they NEVER give out 5 stars), but personally I think It's a bit tosh. I far preferred the speeded up samples of College Dropout to the slowed down ones on Late Registration. Couple of good tracks but he could do with more obscure samples. Gold digger just makes me want to listen to some Ray Charles so I don't have to listen to the annoying rapping that spoils a great song. One thing that tickled me is that Kanye supports the Toon. In Drive slow he says "Back when we rocked the Leazes, he had dreams of Capris's " Edited September 4, 2005 by Happy Face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30616 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I have to agree with you there HF, I was very dissapointed. Most of the songs were too slow and downbeat and it didn't sound anywhere near as fresh as TCD. I was also disappointed to see the Game's verse removed from crack music. I don't know how it got top ratings in all the magazines but I guess everyone is trying to ride his dick at the minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 he's overrated as a producer quite simple as that, too many samples for my liking... to much east coast bias towards him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elric 0 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Just finished 'aquiring' this, 2 songs in and it's sounding ok. Need to give it a couple of full listens before I pass judgement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got nothing in common with those people, other than skin tone. Kanye doesn't care about poor white people.
