Kanye's current campaign feels like if HIStory didn't tack a greatest hits disc onto the new weirdass paranoid emotional problems one but was still promoted the same way.

okay this second verse during the "power" performance isn't on the remix either -- it's totally new & seriously way better

holy s--t i didn't realize runaway was (a) kanye west and (b) on a not-yet-released album. i heard it a few days ago, on how-to-dress-well's mixtape on the dis magazine website, and assumed it was cee-lo green (that opening still sounds like cee-lo's voice to me).
― Daniel, Esq., Monday, 4 October 2010 02:00 (thirteen years ago) link
Really? I don't think it sounds anything like Mr. Green.

it seems really weird to me that he's pushing "runaway" rather than "monster" which people seem to actually like and i've heard bumping out of cars and stuff. seems like the logic is "heartless" is his biggest hit in the past couple years, so put out a song like that? idgi.
― ayo for dayo (The Reverend), Monday, 4 October 2010 20:49 (thirteen years ago) link
um because "Runaway" is a melodic pop rap song and "Monster" is a 6 min posse cut where nobody's favorite verse is Kanye's?

also i don't think "monster" is even on the album

I kind of feel like Kanye should stop making music for a while and just do video treatments for people, because the all-out megalomania in "Power" is one of the most visually-arresting things I've seen in a while.

looking at the confirmed songs for dtf, why are none of the good songs he's put out lately on it? yikes.

it isn't even that catchy tho!
just to offer a different view, this wasn't true for me. to me, runaway isn't just catchy, it's totally arresting, musically and lyrically (that's been my feeling the first time i heard it -- on that how-to-dress-well mixtape -- and even now that i've played it over-and-over).
different strokes/different folks.
― Daniel, Esq., Monday, 4 October 2010 21:27 (thirteen years ago) link
runaway is arresting, i just wish all this added up to more than "ballerinas on my dick cuz i wear the crown wreath"
― da croupier, Monday, 4 October 2010 21:28 (thirteen years ago) link
geez, "to me," "to me," "to me," "to me," "to me." i need an ilx-editor. an ilxidor.

that's what you think he means? i get the impression it's "i'm awesome and get all the women/i'm a creep and hate myself," which is a lot of what i think is interesting about kayne west.

lol. well okay, but also: "idk what it is with females, but i'm not too good with that shit," self-identifying next to "d-bags, assholes, scumbags, jerkoffs," and warning the girl to "run away as fast as you can."
― Daniel, Esq., Monday, 4 October 2010 21:38 (thirteen years ago) link
that's a fun line to write -- or say.
yeah no I wanna give him credit for being relatively "I'm the jerk" after 808s but the earnest grandeur of the music and the performances makes it kinda hard to take seriously
― da croupier, Monday, 4 October 2010 21:40 (thirteen years ago) link
contrasted with "ohhh my dick photo" shit, I mean
― da croupier, Monday, 4 October 2010 21:41 (thirteen years ago) link
If Prince had dedicated Purple Rain to 80 women I would have laughed at that too
the earnest grandeur of the music and the performances makes it kinda hard to take seriously
unfortunately this is precisely what lots of fans like about 808.

― da croupier, Monday, 4 October 2010 21:43 (thirteen years ago) link
The timpani and harpsichords, delusions of symphonic grandeur, and Rod Temperton samples were better deployed on its predecessors imo. Not to mention his voice.
