Kayne West\'s "Graduation"
« on: October 15, 2007, 01:51:36 pm »
Well, another one that I don\'t expect to get much love for, but hey, I think Kayne is a phenomenal artist and I definitely like the new album. So...

Graduation is the third studio album by hip hop artist Kanye West. The album was released on September 11, 2007. The cover art was designed by Takashi Murakami.

The title of the album follows the college theme of Kanye West\'s albums. His previous two albums were titled The College Dropout and Late Registration.

I am in between on Kayne. Part of me hates him, the other part respects what he is doing and has done. I haven\'t really listened to Late Registration but The College Dropout got a lot of play.

Be interesting to hear this album because he usually puts together nice beats.

Absolutely LOVE this album, as of right now, I think I might like it the best out of the 3...good call Pitchie, i never really even try to talk Hip-hop on this board, but this album is so good.

Word son.

I have never listened to his music, but he seems to be a miserable individual.

I thought his firt album was an absolute classic, but just didnt\' feel his second album for some reason.  Couldn\'t get into it. :shrug:  But I would certainly like to check out this one, always ready to give something I\'ve liked another shot.

Sorrry... After watching SNL this week, I don\'t get what the big deal about this guy is?  Without the voice synthesizer, it\'d be utter crap.

what\'s up with the new autotuner virus? it\'s plaguing "so-called" music left and right....pop music has hit a new low, "its ok if you can\'t sing as long as you look good we have this magical autotuner that adds that wonderful ROBOVOICE all the kids are just raaaaaaaaving about!" I am not a Kanye hater which is why i was somewhat unimpressed with his SNL performance. Great visuals (costing ser $$$) and good energy on Kanye\'s part, but damn....that robovoice needs to go fo sho!

anyone see Ludacris and T-pain\'s performance on SNL a couple weeks back? Without the autotuner, tpain actually sounded good!
