Kanye West -- The Life Of Pablo (he'll probably change it several times after it's released too)

the total lack of percussion on either of these songs is the most interesting thing about them to me in that they so painfully sound like they're missing a rhythm track... can't see "FourFiveSeconds" really doing much unless there's a version with drums.

version of "4 5 seconds" floating around has to be a demo, though, right? a deliberately slight deep cut at most.

Paul McCartney not esp. renowned for his productions skills?

those Wings songs are often nothing BUT production skillz

Maybe the thread title should be changed if every other post is gonna be about Paul producing the album when that announcement has already been corrected

I was thinking that myself but then I remembered how the supposed release date of Yeezus was first denied and then turned out to be accurate, so who the fuck knows. I'll edit it a bit, though.

kanye HAS to realize these songs are unsalable as pop in 2015, right? i was shocked when he was actually crestfallen that yeezus had no real hit singles...but here he has to realize the whole world isn't goign to be singing "four five seconds." right?

My money is on the two formally released songs being "bonus tracks."

sorta interesting that kanye is giving mccartney this huge promo push but daft punk were silent contributors to yeezus

Given there was Daft Punk overload at the time, presumably a way to separate it out from that slipstream?

Daft Punk were in the video for "Stronger" and them being sampled on a rap hit was a semi-big deal in 2007. them being among a bazillion co-producers on an album that dropped right after their own comeback album not really a big deal. definitely not as big a deal as anything involving a Beatle.

i disagree!

i mean mccartney isn't actually doing anything on these songs. if he wasn't in the promo pics and someone was like "yeah mccartney strummed the acoustic guitar on this track" people would be like "oh hmm that's nice"

yeah but Kanye clearly doesn't see it that way, is what i mean

as far as hypebeasting, having Paul on this album is analogous to him calling in favors to get Ludacris on his first album. he's all about whatever feature puts him on another level.

still salty that luda didn't get a verse on that song

version of "4 5 seconds" floating around has to be a demo, though, right? a deliberately slight deep cut at most.

dog it's not a demo

woops kanye west let out another 'demo'!

woof

There's a fine line between chaos and creation.

one man's flaming pie is another man's kisses on the bottom

one requires penicillin, the other jail time

We have...something? Album title?

Umm, that's for Big Sean.

Paul McCartney's working with everyone these days!

Big Sean Lennon

Calls to John Lennon and George Harrison's offices not returned.

um, image is very "Batman Begins"

Seriously I wish he'd stuck with "Made In Florence"

lolll yea it's so chris nolan-y

fortunately, it's big sean getting stuck with it and not 'ye

Big Sean probably came up with it

I heard "Four Five Seconds" on the radio yesterday between Jeremih and something which felt kinda weird.

Kanye's going to be on <i>Ellen</i> this Thursday.

Whoops, wrong formatting code

Anyway, I hope he's using that appearance to talk about the new Big Sean album

Ellen is a better producer than Kanye

jay pharoah's kanye impression vs kate mckinnon's ellen impression

An SNL hosting gig can't be too far off.

For Paul McCartney or Big Sean?
Or Ellen?

To cement his new friendship, Kanye fired a shit at Yoko.

He's dead to me.

I'd like a NEW WORKOUT PLAN poster with Nolan font and stormy sky.

Seriously tho, a Kanye/Yoko collaboration would be way more interesting than Kanye/Paul.

Is "fired a shit" a typo? Please let that be a typo.

fried ain't much better

I don't need no "Hey Jude" for this shit.

No idea how that's escaped Up-the-Arse Corner up till now. (xp)

jay was the one with the shitty yoko lyric

i still can't be fucked to listen to this single

kanye's beatles-and-grammys way of thinking about artistic greatness is so boring and sort of shows him up as the opposite of a revolutionary; he cares so deeply about bullshit conservative institutions
