Have you got an album and you like about half the songs in it and hate the others. I had this happened to me before. 808's & Heartbreak is the only album that i really enjoyed as a whole. Each song really had this nice background music and some nice deep lyrics. Kanye West really did it this time, he made hip hop music to go in a different direction. Now for me Kanye West is not like another "alright" singer but one of my top 3 favorite singers. To tell about 808's & Heartbreak there are some pretty deep songs in it but, its not all about heartbreak, there are some nice, sweet songs in it as well like Street Lights and Robocop. Not a lot of rappers make songs from there heart and emotion so its a little. The music is simply amazing as well, it doesn't have that hardcore beats going on like most rap songs but, nice soft beat and real melody type music. My 2 favorite songs from this album are Amazing and Welcome to Heartbreak all the other songs are a perfect 10 but, these 2 really got in to me. If you dont like rap music you should give this album a chance. Trust me you won't be disappointed.

As a last resort, I would like to say that 808's & Heartbreak have some really sweet music and good morals in it, that you dont see in todays music. Kanye West is going in the right direction.

Yeah, some CD albums are prone to have bad songe but some good, that's why I won't listen to "Business Time" by Flight of the Conchords.

I'm not into hip hop to much but from what little i've heard that auto tone thing that he used on his voice, well it seems really annoying. But maybe that's just me. And it seems like all the rappers are using nowadays. Pretty soon robots will be singing their songs

Same here, but I somehow like all of the songs later once I listen to it over and over again.
Posted Nov 29, 2008 7:49 am PT
I haven't been into rap & hip hop since the Digital Underground days.

I never was a fan of Kanye West those piece altered part of my view.

That is a good album but i dont by whole albums anymore just songs
Posted Nov 29, 2008 8:49 am PT
Its a decent album, but not really anything I would buy
Posted Nov 29, 2008 8:51 am PT
Yeah I have felt that way about a cd before. I think that is why I really don't go out and buy cd's anymore.

I like kanye west he has some good songs
Posted Nov 29, 2008 11:48 am PT
I'm a big fan of Kanye West, but the College Dropout Kanye West; not the wannabe T-Pain voice synchronized Kanye West. I'd rather not listen to the album. I'm a hardcore hip-hop fan and it's hard for me to say that.

I liked some of his songs in past albums. He was always a hit and miss with me. Some of his songs are good others not so much. This album for me might be the same, i have heard some of his songs from the new one, i liked a few of them but not all.
Posted Nov 29, 2008 12:36 pm PT
I don't really like Hip Hop but enjoy.
Posted Nov 29, 2008 12:49 pm PT
Ain't really into Kanye but i'll take your word for it and check it out.
Posted Nov 29, 2008 12:55 pm PT
x29: glad you agrees with me
protege: Those were his good old days but this album is something new from him. Its always good to see something new. zenesis: Every singers songs arent all 100% at its best. I Know what you mean, everyone has there own music type.
Primo: i will
big: hope i dont disappoint you
Posted Nov 29, 2008 1:53 pm PT
Awesome getting as soon as I can.
Posted Nov 29, 2008 2:32 pm PT
ramoni: hope u like it
Posted Nov 29, 2008 2:35 pm PT
At least Kanye's one of the only rap artists I actually enjoy listening to.
Posted Nov 29, 2008 2:58 pm PT
I've never really been a hip-hop fan, but the 90s had some of the better music.
Posted Nov 29, 2008 3:16 pm PT
WOW I was just lisening to a Kanye West!
Posted Nov 29, 2008 3:48 pm PT
Have you got an album and you like about half the songs in it and hate the others?

Posted Nov 29, 2008 3:57 pm PT

Posted Nov 29, 2008 8:35 pm PT
Kanye West is a great rapper, and yes I have a cd that I only like half of the songs, that's why I mostly just preview the cd first on barnesandnoble to see if it'll be good to spend the money on it.
Posted Nov 29, 2008 11:14 pm PT
neil: to most he is
mac: old school is the best in hiphop
naruto: nice
maj: thats cool, what you mean by not anymore? could it be you are buying from the internet.
kratos: dont need to apologize
ed: he is decent. I didnt know barnes and novles sold CD's.
Posted Nov 30, 2008 5:30 am PT
i never buy cd's, not a very music person.
Posted Nov 30, 2008 5:53 am PT
Because some songs are written quick to fill up the CD so the singers can make money faster.
Posted Nov 30, 2008 6:35 am PT
altair: I cant live without music
code: i know, sometimes even those songs sound good
Posted Nov 30, 2008 7:51 am PT
My friend has been telling me how good this album is all week. I've got to remind him to bring it over when he stops by later.

eye: lol. who doesnt like robocop
Posted Dec 2, 2008 6:33 am PT
Well to be honest, at times he is pretty pleasent with the music, thing is what i like about Kyane West is that, most of his lyrics are involved with deep, intense emotion, that really makes me want to listen to it over and over again. After hearing your feedback, I think ill check this album out!
Posted Dec 2, 2008 9:33 am PT
Thug: i dont actually like all of his songs myself but this album was really something different from him and its good. I am glad you are trying it hope you like it thoguh
Posted Dec 2, 2008 12:23 pm PT
meh, good point. But a true fan would probably would like the songs, even if some has it's medicore feelings, but hey, im always the type of person attempting to listen to some new music, so this might be a new keeper to me.
Posted Dec 2, 2008 3:46 pm PT
hmm Is it me or does it have a little R&B-ish sound to it??
Posted Dec 3, 2008 11:59 am PT
thug: true. it definetly would be something good.
eucalypta: its like R&B, rap and pop and a little bit rock all mixed together. so its not you.
Posted Dec 3, 2008 12:06 pm PT

Posted Dec 3, 2008 12:37 pm PT
Wow. Didn't know reading al ot and paying attention in class supports my statements . Hopefully ill check it out, then again....yeah ill check it out, i need to listen to something new, tell me what are the best songs to you may i ask?
