When the album first dropped, I believe I said that 808s & Heartbreaks wouldn't be appreciated until later on down the line as a true work of art.

I don't really care about this argument, but I think people forget how awesome Crack Music is. I feel like people bring up all these great Kanye songs andthen forget one of his best.

Exactly... He was in a lane that was needed then he pussyfooted out of it. What happened to spitting that struggle? That boy is lost I tell you.

I've never thought about it like that, but honestly his political songs are really his best ones.
Never Let You Down (Also gotta be one of Jay's best verses)
Diamonds
Roses
Spaceship
Apologize
All Falls Down
Crack Music
You're right now that I sit here and write this post and think about it. Kanye has a REALLY good way of connecting with people through his music. Some ofhis best bars are where he's actually talking about REAL issues. Musically, he still has it but he hasn't talked about anything important (to mepersonally) since Late Registration.

Exactly... thats where he was really on a path to actually make mark.
All this new superficial #*!# he's on now a days just doesn't cut it with me I'm sorry.

Agreed. Main reason why I was the only one who disliked Graduation, *@*# was just a glorification of himself.
And@ the stans in this post. I actually like 808's, but some ofyall are being blinded by those Street Lights.

Naw you're just an idiot. People who've seen me post before know I'd barely register as a Kanye fan, much less a stan. You just made a laughable comment indicating how little you know of what you speak. Keep it movin.Originally Posted by StarkyL0ve

I'm terribly sorry I'm not up-to-date on past history and feelings regarding music on an internet forum. Is there maybe a book orpublished work I could read so I be caught up with your very important thoughts regarding such things. It would help make this conversation a lot better.Thanks.

i gotta disagree tho. i like Kanye's music for the most part and thats that. do i like him. idk cause i dont know him but some of the things he does makesme scratch my head.
Racist? no im black and white and well no im not racist.
Homophobic? maybe a lil but i support gays and their struggle. a struggle that i find eerily similar to that of the blacks and other minorities.
Insecure? i dont see the connection.

Well why dont u so call blow up(im sure his life career,gotta be in a better position then where u r now.) If not that atleast we all can agree his bank account is. There is a thing call order etc. He wasnt even heavy into trying to get a rap careerat the time By ur logic Beanie Seigel is wack cause he was in the wings for awhile before he released an album. Killer Mike was down with DF for years before he got his shine. Its call paying dues. You just cant come in the game 1 day and be like ok im talented 4get all the other artist on the label and put me 1st. Are you serious. The reason he wouldnt have had a hit cause the game was so 1 diminsional, and there wasnt as many avenues and outlets to get ur music exposed and heard. He isnt a musical genius,but to say he is just some gay fruity dressin dude who pressed some magic button and created hit after hit after hit is at the very most a very ignorant and asinine statement.
first of all patna, u have no idea what my bank account looks like, so u can kill that irrelevant s***.........
2nd, beanie & killer mike werent trying to be big producers before they were rappers, they were always just tryin to break in as MC's, and yes they paid they dues, but that doesnt mean every rapper does that........
and it has nothing to do with the game being one dimensional, kanye came into the game strictly as a producer, and did that successfully for several years, then saw how watered down everything was and decided to try and change it by making lame music and wearing g*y clothes, yet calling it "different and unique" and having all the kids nowadays thinking hes some savior or revolutionary...........smh
first of all patna, u have no idea what my bank account looks like, so u can kill that irrelevant s***.........
We do due to the fact that um ok u needed to respond. Second your nowhere near the celeb status or financial status as Kanye. Again lets suppose u are someone of importance(highly unlikely) Did you get your claim to fame and money simply by pushing A BUTTON.So its safe to say you had 2 earn or work to get what u accomplished in life.With that being said y would u work ur tail off to be middle maybe upper middle class when u coulda just pressed A BUTTON. Either 1 its much more to it then just pressing A BUTTON, or 2 u are a complete moron. Again how does clothing correlate with music talent, arrangement, production etc. So according to u your clothes are a distinction and measuring point on your talent.
im not the one who made the original comment about him just pushing buttons, so u need to ease up off my n-u-teez..........
and when did i ever say i was famous?? i'd rather not be in the spotlight as long as i got enough $$$$ to do what i want, when i want(which i do)......
and if i was famous, i sure as hell wouldnt act like the biggest lame dou***bag crybaby in the world like your boyfriend does.......

Um how can u make an assesment/judgement about a person when u dont know them. BF um ok lol thats real mature. Um money wise lol who are u fooling. And u donthave to be famous to be a producer etc. If u have all this wealth and insight on the game, why dont u do something 2 bring about a change suitable to urmusical taste.Itchin and complaining on a sneakerboard accomplishes what exactly. Its a put up or shut up case scenario.If he is so wack please bless us withur amazing musical talents.Anyone can throw stones and hide they fingers. If he is so wack and garbage why did u take the time to even listen to it? Why did ueven acknowledge his music? U cats remind of the kid on the porch saying this and that about a person and saying how u would do this, or they so wack,they thisand that yet do nuttin about it. Ok if u feel the game lacks substance and has a poor quality of music, then instead of complaining and making immature andrather foolish comments, why dont u facilitate a change.As much as u ostrecize and criticize the music so much im sure u have a plethera of good music gemsjust swirlying around in ur head waiting for fruition. Ill be looking for all of u guys albums that trumps 808 and Heartbreak to be posted.

I count at least 9 bad songs off his last two albums alone.
Can you please elaborate...anyone can say false, all these people hating say nothing to back their statements up...
As far as the bolded part...REALLY? and I'M the crazy one?
9 bad songs off his last two albums alone? really?
Drunk and Hot Girls
Barry Bonds
Bad News
Love Lockdown
I'll give you those 4...what are the other 5?
I like 3/4 of those songs... A LOT. And Barry Bonds has its place from time to time, just I felt like Wayne should have come a little harder.
But Bad News and Love Lockdown are absolutely my favorites from 808.
