Kanye on the AMA Awards last night.......

I think that song and his performance sucked. I'm so tired of people singing with that stupid voice box. I think he is talent and I give him credit for doing different things, but that was terrible last night. what did you all think.

I heard a rumour that backstage after Kanye's "im the new beatles" speech, Motley Crue dedicated their new single to him.....their latest single is of course called "Motherfucker of the year"

Well it definitely isn't the best song from the album. The performance was "Eh"

Ye likes to hype up things around album time.. just breeze past it. His new album is good if you can see through some of the gimmicks.. it really is.

but fuck his hype, you gotta look past it.

like I look past every single thing prince does or says.

I was reading about how he gave his award away to Lil Wayne because he felt that's who deserved it this year. Was this televised??

his voice doesn't usually sound like that! it was almost like he was GROWLING with phlegm in his throat, plus with the autotune effects-it's gonna take more practice to get that element sounding right. it's such a "studio" technique.



i like this song though!

the auto tone doesn't translate well live, that is part of the problem with what he is doing.

Aside from that, I think the auto tone is sort of used as a metaphor with all what is going on. I really really really love some of these songs.


a few could be scratched.. but he did a great job on it. I like the electronic aspects of the album.

Say You Will is really nice.. and I like how after about 3 minutes of singing, he has about 3 minutes of just instrumentation.. a lot of breathing space with the atmosphere he created.
