Kanye West - Dark Twisted Fantasy

Whiney G. Weingarten, speaking from experience.

xp

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.

kanye's got your black swan RIGHT HERE

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?

it isn't even that catchy tho! and you could easy make a 4-minute radio edit of monster by cutting out the bon iver parts.

cheaper to get pusha t on stage than nicki, rick, jay-z and bon iver xpost!

yeah, true.

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

CLICK HERE TO SEE PETE WENTZ'S COCK

um dude nsfw

that was not necessary

really now

AYO TECHNOLOGY

to recap:

ilxor insinuating me a creep who forwards dick pics = necessary
me posting well-tread blog image = unnecessary

love you, moderators

more like:

ilxor says something stupid that everyone ignores because no one pays any attention to him

you follow up with an actual dick move

enjoy your impending suggest ban

or

"ilxor insinuating me a creep who forwards dick pics = necessary
me forwarding dick pic = unnecessary"

haha

"How dare he say that, I must PROVE HIM RIGHT"

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.

runaway is arresting, i just wish all this added up to more than "ballerinas on my dick cuz i wear the crown wreath"

geez, "to me," "to me," "to me," "to me," "to me." i need an ilx-editor. an ilxidor.

runaway is arresting, i just wish all this added up to more than "ballerinas on my dick cuz i wear the crown wreath"

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.

I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
only wanted one time to see you laughing
only want to see you laughing at my photo of my dick

PURPLE DICK....PURPLE DICK

*thud thud*

I didn't mean to suggest that Kanye isn't torn up about the gift and the curse of the ballerinas on his dick because he wears the crown wreath

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."

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

contrasted with "ohhh my dick photo" shit, I mean

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.

it's the best thing about it, really! i mean the guy knows how to get your attention, I just find his reasons for timpani a little lacking

The timpani and harpsichords, delusions of symphonic grandeur, and Rod Temperton samples were better deployed on its predecessors imo. Not to mention his voice.

there's not that much grandeur in 808s! in fact there's prob more in 'late registration'

and much more in his recent stuff

there's less actually orchestration than on late registration (easily my fave of his albums), but the arrangements are still pretty dramatic

actual orchestration i mean

Always and forever. <3

I can't believe some of you guys actually clicked on that link, I avoided it like the plague!

"How dare he say that, I must PROVE HIM RIGHT"

looooooooooooool

it wasn't linked originally

Whiney, for the record, 1) I was joking, and, 2) my comment "speaking from exp." was open-ended enough to mean you could be sending *or* receiving said pics. But obviously in linking that photo, you've narrowed it down a bit for us all.

xxxxxxp I actually like the "best i ever had" vid don't get why every1 hates it

BOOBS. IN SLOW MOTION. WHAT IS THERE TO HATE.

terrible tattoo, pete wentz

BOOBS. IN SLOW MOTION. WHAT IS THERE TO HATE.

The slo-mo boob named Drake.

"Kanye West’s fifth studio album entitled My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy will be in stores on Monday, November 22nd." Not so sure about this. Dark Twisted Fantasy is strong enough title, but is this real one an improvement? Verges on Morrissey territory, but I think it will grow on me. This was always the title though, according to West:

http://consequenceofsound.net/2010/10/05/kanye-west-titles-new-album-my-beautiful-dark-twisted-fantasy/

that album title is a little like Morrissey and Beyonce had a baby

Holy hell. It's like he said, "Man, I don't think Dark Twisted Fantasy is a bad enough album title... how can I make that shit worse??"

^^

It's like My Little Pony, but more rapey.

i want him to add more and more to that title.
