Homecoming Is Reported To Be Kanye's 3rd UK Single, While The US Will Be Getting Flashing Lights As Theirs.

While this is a solid enough track, I really feel there is so much better to come from Graduation, I'm really not sure why this one was chosen Still, I won't hate on it because it is a good track, even if Chris Martin is on it.

Here's hoping that this one disappears real quick, so he can release Champion. Check out Homecoming below, if you don't already have the album.

Feeling The Track?
Let Me Know...


As The Over Hyped, Over Worked, Over Planned Rivalry Of "50 Cent" & "Kanye West" Continues, Both Parties Were invited Into "BET's"; "106 & Park".

"MTV" also invited both artists to appear on "TRL" but Mr West declined, he has promised never to have dealings with them again after he received no awards at the recent "VMAs". [cough] Pathetic!

While in the studio, both Fiddy & Kanye performed a track from their respective albums, check out the video of Kanye with his 'Brother'; "Jay Z". I heard 'Ye describe this track as his "Best Material", I'm not quite convince to that extent but I like the song all the same, & the special guest appearance was a very cool addition.

Here's The Performance:



In other news, it appears that "Graduation" is outselling "Curtis" by over 100,000 copies, I don't believe for 1 second that Fiddy is going to quit music, I think the whole 'beef' situation is bull ishh.

To Continue The Huge Influx Of New Videos This Week, "Kanye" Has Premiered His New Video, Featuring 'Mr Auto Tuner'; "T-Pain".

The video is a little strange, although Kanye has never been plain, it doesn't do much to compliment the track, nor does it have that addictive quality like the video for "Stronger".

Still, It is good to finally see 'Mr West' moving on with his album, I know I heard Stronger weeks before it hit the radio, but damn that tracks getting old. Check Out The Video Below & Let Me Know What You Think Of It?


Liking The Video,
Let Me Know?


As The "Kanye West" - "50 Cent" Rivalry Continues To Raise Interest In Both Albums, The Media Machines Have Gone To Work & Have Got Both Artists Featured In "Rolling Stone".



I think the cover has massive impact, I'm really feeling it, & the image is legit, Kanye wanted to make clear that it has Not been photoshopped. Recently 50 has apparently pulled out of his now infamous claim to quit music, talking in a recent interview he is quoted as saying: "Did I Really Say That?".

On a musical front, I will be listening & comparing both albums & giving my opinion on them soon, first impressions of both records surprised me, Kanye's is full of hard hitting lyrics & clever, emotional tracks. While fiddy has a more 'club' album, with hot production & even hotter collaborations, I thought that this was going to be a hands down victory for Ye, but now I might be doubting my original views, keep it locked, full reviews on the way.

Here Is A Bonus Track Featured On The Retail Version Of "Kanye's" Soon To Be Released Album; "Graduation".

Although not as solid as some of the tracks, this is still a pretty cool sound, definately not a single but pretty cool none the less. This one features long time friends "
Lupe" & "Pharrell", it's a little slow but would sound good as the 'closer' on the album. Let Me Know What You Make Of It?

Uh Huh, Another "Kanye" Track Has Leaked From "Graduation", A Few More & We'll Have The Whole Album. Ha!

This one feature's "ColdPlay's" "Chris Martin", a firm favourite for guest vocals, I guess it's the squeaky voice. The mid-tempo track is feeling a little slow for my liking, not one of Kanye's best, a decent, solid track all the same, I can't wait for Graduation to drop, bring it on "Fiddy".

LISTEN: "Kanye West ft. Chris Martin - Homecoming"

Love To Know What You Guy's Make Of This,
Let Me Know?



Man Of The Moment "Kanye West" Joined "Radio 1" & "MTV" Presenter "Tim Westwood" On His Hip-Hop Show This Past Weekend.

While in the studio, he aired 2 tracks from his new album; "Big Brother" & "Champion", both tracks are hot, I'm really feeling Brother lyrically, while the production on Champion is sounding on-point. Kanye told Westwood that Brother was about his relationship with close friend & fellow rapper "Jay Z".


In other Kanye news, it looks as though there could be a club remix of "Stronger" on the cards, produced by none other than the king himself; "Timbaland", although 'Ye' is a brilliant producer, he told MTV that Stronger just didn't bounce in the clubs like a Timbo joint. He admitted while in the studio with Tim: "I Had To Bow In The Presence Of Greatness".

I am so looking forward to "Graduation" when it drops in the UK on September 10th (US 11th), everything I have heard so far has been hot, I think he is going to blow "50" out of the water.

Check Out The Interview & Exclusive Tracks Below, Let Me Know Your Thoughts?



Can't Wait For Graduation,
Let Me Know?



Here Is A New Leaked Track From "Kanye's" Up-Coming LP, "Graduation".

Although 'Ye' promised that there would be no guest vocals from Rappers on his album, it does appear that man of the moment "Lil Wayne" has made the cut. This new track, which is not going to be the next single, is named after renowned baseball player "Barry Bonds", apparently because Kanye thinks it will be so big, it will make a 'Home Run'.

Not so sure about this one, first time I heard "Stronger" it 'infected' me with it's beat & flow, this track just does nothing for me, maybe it will be a grower, who knows. The edition of 'Weezy' can only be a good thing, I'm really loving this guy at the moment, but it would be better to hear some solo material rather than another collaboration.

LISTEN: "Kanye West ft. Lil Wayne - Barry Bonds"

What Do You make Of Barry Bonds,
Like It?


The Brand New Video For "Kanye West's" Fantastic New Single Has Premiered On TRL.

"Stronger" Is my favourite track of the year so far, it's production values are absolutely amazing & the use of it's sample is inspired, I have no idea how Mr West creates these sorts of tracks, but I'm glad that he does. My only fear is that this lead single will be the strongest from his album, "Graduation", & everything to follow will be an anti-climax, but I suppose only time will tell.

The "Hype Williams" directed video is hot, it's modern, contemporary feel is great & it matches up with the track very well. This record will serve Kanye very well & i think it Will be remembered for a long time to come, 100% number #1 hit.

(UPDATE - I might Be A Bit Slow On This, But I Have Only Just Noticed "Cassie" In This Video, Random)

Check out the video below, I would love to know what you make of it?



Strong Or Weak, You Decide?



Here Is Another Track That Has Leaked From "Kanye West's" New Album "Graduation".

"Bittersweet" is a low to mid tempo track with some great lyrical content, it is no where near as hot as "Stronger" but it's a great track in it's own right. I am a little obsessed with Stronger at the moment & cannot wait for Mr West's album to drop in August.


LISTEN: "Kanye West ft. John Mayer - Bittersweet"

Finally, After Hearing Snippets & Edited Versions, Here Is The Debut Single From "Kanye West's" New Album "Graduation"

This track is hot, a great hook, solid production & in true Kanye style, a brilliant sample. I think this will be a big hit for Mr West & cannot wait for the album to leak.

LISTEN: "Kanye West - Stronger" (High Quality)

Like It Or Hate It, Let Me Know?


Here Is A Brand New Clip From "Kanye's" New Album, A Snippet Of A Track Called "Stronger".

It samples "Daft Punk's" "Harder, Better, Stronger, Faster" & uses it well, this beat is HOTT.

This is more what I wanted to hear from Kanye, I can't wait for his album to finally drop, he has used this sample so well, Daft Punk are masters of dance beats & not given enough credit, I'm not sure what they are up to now but I hope this track helps them out.

LISTEN: "Kanye West - Stronger" (Snippet)

Let Me Know What You Think Of It, Plus His New Album?

Rip - The Regulators

Here Is The Brand New, High Quality Version Of "Kanye West's" New Single.

It is set to drop on the 18th of September & is taken from his new album "Graduation".
While the track has hot production, courtesy of "DJ Troop", I'm not really feeling it, which is a shame, as I was looking forward to his new album for months now.

I wanted another "Goldigger" or "All Falls Down", but instead it seems almost mediocre.
