Rev, they are talking about the latest track released from this album, See Me Now (Feat. Beyonce & Charlie Wilson)
It is listenable on Kanye's blog: http://www.kanyeuniversecity.com/blog/2010/08/see-me-now-feat-beyonce-charlie-wilson/

The song is alright. It's more album material than singles material. But anyway, I still don't see the need of two singers though. Either one would've been fine, plus really three producers??? However, I'm just not getting excited for this album even though it has all the ingredients for me to get excited like having Madlib, Pete Rock and DJ Premier producing. A guest verse from Nicki Minaj (yes I know, but I like her). But something about this seems so meh. I kinda feel like he should've hung it up as a rapper after 808's and Heartbreaks and just be a producers. However, his new productions though easy on the ears have lost my interests. Hopefully, this album will change my mind.

i don't mind this but it's way too long and is kind of a more boring retread of "gone" (which haha is also 6 minutes long but never seemed too long)
kanye's pretty terrible at high culture references :/

i still lol every time i see DARK TWISTED FANTASY btw, i don't think i've yet processed that that's actually gonna be the actual title

was pretty haps to enjoy this on a lazy big boi tip at first (even laughed at chocolatey socrates, sorry) but once he said "i know you thinkin this that yeezy we all love” the jig was rather up. not usual for ye's needyness to draw for outright nostalgia like this - seems he really has been cowed somewhat after recent events.

didn't i start listening to this song about 28 minutes ago? END ALREADY
I can't help but find the name to this hilariously bad like the rest of y'all.

did he just invent the production posse cut

his stuff has ALWAYS had co-producers, and starting on the last couple albums often more than one -- "Good Life" was Kanye/Toomp/Mike Dean/Timbaland, "Coldest Winter" was Kanye/Jeff Bhasker/No I.D., etc.
― dark twisted fanta girl (some dude), Thursday, 12 August 2010 12:44 (thirteen years ago) link
thank you Prof. Some Dude. i'm talking about the production lineup being part of his "I'M DOING SOMETHING PAY ATTENTION" talking points
― surfboard dudes get wiped out, totally, Thursday, 12 August 2010 13:39 (thirteen years ago) link
I do remember him being like, "and then Timbaland added his drums" I guess that was "Good Life"

this song sucks by the way.

"See Me Now" might grow on me, but my first reaction is "oh my God wtf is this bullshit"

it's the same old shit he's been doing his entire career as a solo artist, but then so was "Power"
― dark twisted fanta girl (some dude), Thursday, 12 August 2010 17:58 (thirteen years ago) link
exactly. how can he release prog-rap like 808's, then retreat back to these outdated sonics? he really let that whole T.Swift thing fuck with his head.
― fuck ya law! (Spinspin Sugah), Thursday, 12 August 2010 18:08 (thirteen years ago) link
That beat is basically a wimpier version of "The Good Life"
― How could you forget the crazy hooker? (HI DERE), Thursday, 12 August 2010 18:10 (thirteen years ago) link
as instrumentals i don't think 808s was all THAT forward-thinking or unique, although if you take it out of the discussion his other albums and probably the new one are pretty damn homogenous
― dark twisted fanta girl (some dude), Thursday, 12 August 2010 18:14 (thirteen years ago) link
i didn't really even pick up any of lex's style anyway
also luger tracks are bangers, u r mad
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, August 11, 2010 10:03 PM (Yesterday) Bookmark Suggest Ban Permalink
they're total generic ATL style bangers, though, like if you told me any of those beats was by Shawty Redd or Drumma Boy i'd say it's not their best work and they need to go back to the drawing board, so a new cat blowing up off those tracks is just sad
anyway Kanye running to the radio with a BIG STAR and a HOT PRODUCER on a record he just made LAST NIGHT when the street single's been out for months kinda feels like he didn't know what to do for a pop single and is kinda grasping at straws
― dark twisted fanta girl (some dude), Thursday, 12 August 2010 18:47 (thirteen years ago) link
wait, 808s was pretty damn normal sonically speaking

Kanye is basically a buzz whore, pretty much anyone who's popular at any given time is usually going to get an enthusiastic Kanye co-sign.

okay that is certainly true, but it in no way diminishes the potential awesomeness of a kayne -- raekwon -- justin bieber collaboration.
