[[....<> The Official Kanye Omari West Thread <>....]] vol. GOOD Music album.

[h1]Kanye West Ropes In Nicki Minaj, John Legend, Swizz Beatz, Others for 'Power' Remix[/h1][h2]'I might have to put out 5 albums this year ... My spirit is full ,' Kanye tweeted.[/h2]
Now that Kanye West is backon his grind, the LV Don appears determined to push harder than ever toproduce unique music. Case in point: Over the past five days, inaddition to performing at an intimate club show on Thursday, where hecovered songs by Rihanna and Billy Joel and was joined by Estelle,Yeezy hit the studio to work on a remix of "Power" with an all-starcast.

Given his new status as the Titan of Twitter, he, of course, tweetedabout the progress of the sessions. "Scheduled studio visits 2day,Nikki [Minaj], John Legend, Mos Def, Swizz Beatz, Pusha T, PhillipLim," he wrote of a remix session that roped in everyone from thenewlywed producer he has called one of the greatest of all time (Beatz), to Clipse member T and piano man Legend, who tickled the ivories for 'Ye at Thursday night's show.

He likened the sessions to the all-star power summits of theearly jazz era, writing, "remember jazz musicians used to collab and do4 song albums or James Brown used to just keep dropping sh-- back toback." In that spirit, West added, "I might have to put out 5 albumsthis year ... My spirit is full ... My heart is open ... People wantnew music ... I can't hold it back."

And that wasn't all. He uploaded a photofrom the studio that featured him with Beatz and Def, as well asanother pal who knows a thing or two about harnessing the power: LosAngeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant. "Kobe helped me finish my #POWERremix verse ... Just building on the concept of #POWE... and Mos helpedme find the 'old me' lyrically," he explained early Sunday morning.

After a "super late" night in the lab with Mos that lastedearly into Sunday morning, West said he was feeling so inspired that heactually had to unplug himself before he laid down the longest verse inrap history. "I had to cut my POWER remix verse short to not over do itwith the million bar verse like the 2nd verse of 'See Me Now,' " hewrote. "There's so many ways to break down the subject of power ... meand Kobe went in on it... Perfect person to help out on that."

In addition to teasing a possible Justin Bieber/Raekwon collabo,throwing out some random props to M.I.A., Matt & Kim, and FionaApple, and taking a break to go jogging (in Lanvin gear, of course),'Ye ended what sounded like a sleepless weekend on a creative andemotional high. "Sometimes I can't control my excitement," he wroteSunday afternoon. "So happy ... so creative ... in the studio ... readyto create ... finished 'Power' verse ... more music."

And, in keeping with his status as the new pied piper poet of Twitter, 'Ye — who will appear at this year's MTV VMAson September 12 — wrapped the creative marathon with an early morningtweet on Monday that summed up his new philosophy: "I'm just tryna keepit symmetrical." Right.

Power never struck me as the track that needed a remix with features or begged a mega remix with thousands of trash rappers on it.

Ye' isn't dumb. He's putting Nikki Menaj (As he spelled her name yesterday) on this album because of he star power.

I could not agree more.  Personally I do not care for a million and one features on one track anyways.  Power doesn't need a remix IMO at all the song is fine on its own.
