Kanye West's new album, all singing.

My favourite song off of the album.

Amazing album though, I love the autotune, and everyone of his songs are different but sound awesome.

Good Job K.West

Even if you don't usually enjoy this music, i recommend you check out this album.

Autotune fails.

Call me T-Pain but I'm actually a robot that loves strippers and Baaartenders!

this, you can tell it's had the shit autotuned out of it.

don't get me wrong, it can be a cool effect. But it shows the douchebag that he is. He ranted about always giving it his all, and he can't even get the tune right so he goes into garageband and fucks around with the autotujner.

lame.

Not to mention the music sucks.

Fine. You should give it a chance, it's really good.

Also, T-Pain is shit.

Not really a fan. I did like "All Falls Down" though. I gave him a chance, thought he sucks and is a little too braggadoccio for me. Whatever floats yer boat man, that's all that matters.

Auto-tune is a really embarassing fad in the music industry thesedays that makes no real excuse for people that can't sing (read: no-talent shit rappers e.g. T-Pain).

808 reference in the album name? First impressions... cool! After listening... where's the actual 808's? This electronic bullshitter! Doesn't keep the original beauty and classic appeal of the TR-808 at all; sounds much more like someone attempting a really bad imitation using Mac software. Pfft.

@ Gooners: Evisu? What sorta gay fashion statement are you trying to make?

This Album isn't really rap anyway but it's a black guy and he's not screaming his lungs out over some guitar riffs/drums which are louder than the vocals so I doubt you guys would like it

But yeah, I don't really like the Album. I suppose "Heartless" is a decent tune and "Love Lockdown" just pisses me off. I dunno, I can see what he's trying to do with this Album, but it ain't my style.
