QUOTE After the tremendous success of Kanye West's Graduation, fans have been patiently waiting the arrival of his next brainchild. Well wait no more. Multiple blogs, including Nahright and respected DJ Semtex's official blog have begun reporting that Ye's next venture will be out before year's end. MTV UK has also reportedly received confirmation of the projects saying: "both Jay and Kanye are set to release new albums before the end of 2009. It's well known Jigga has been working on a new LP- likely to be called The Blueprint 3 - with another West produced track "Jockin' Jay Z" already leaked to the web. Kanye was not expected to release a new album in 2008 but the follow up to Graduation now seems likely to be with us in the near future!"
Kanye's next single will be called "Love LockDown" and his 4th LP is on track to hit stores in December. According to MTV UK (but not confirmed) "Love LockDown" will be available for download on Sept 8th. |

QUOTE According to XXLmag.com, Kanye West is set to announce his new album this weekend at the MTV Video Music Awards. A source in Kanye's management camp told XXLmag late yesterday that "official word" on the new album will be coming Sunday night during his "explosive finale" closing out the show.

Was anybody else disappointed with his performance? Good single, but the performance was a letdown. I will admit, that Kanye is going a lil Britney now, which is understandable.

The performance didn't have much of a point. The drummers were cool, and I appreciated the sparklers at the end, but other than that... Kanye's had much better performances. Can't always be on top, you know. What do you mean by "going Britney"?Akon > Kanye .... What? How you figure?

What I meant by him going Britney, was that he is starting to go a little crazy. Like I mentioned in chat last night, he is just now dealing with the death of his mother. I think that he never had to time to do with it, and it is finally starting to show on him physically, as well as mentally. |

Umm .. no .. he performed it at the VMA's , and it was simply magical . I can't wait for his new LP . I loved graduation . Also, Jay Z's jocking Jay Z is a great song, go peep it . OMG READ: I know I dissed the title, but I like the song, at least from the VMA performance. Yeah. The performance didn't have much of a point.

Which is why he uses an AUTOTUNER whenever he sings.

I didn't like the song he performed on the VMA's. I don't think i'll like his album either if he just sings the whole thing. I like his rapping better than singing.

QUOTE BET.com reports, via its "Sound Off" blog, that Kanye West will entitle his new album 808's and Heartbreak. The LP is has a working release date of December 16, according to Young Legend, who originally reported the news via OnSmash.com. Amazon.com and retail giant Target have quickly followed suit and are already allowing customers to pre-order the album.
West is rumored to make frequent use of Auto-Tune vocals, as he has during guest spots on Lil Wayne's "Lollipop," remix and Young Jeezy's "Put On." It has been speculated that the album will feature a significant amount of sung vocals much like Kanye's recently leaked song "Love Lockdown." The recent death of West's mother and the end of his engagement are also rumored to be subject matter. Having taken to only giving updates via his blog at KanyeUniversecity.com as opposed to press interviews, neither Kanye nor any representatives at Def Jam have confirmed the rumor. HipHopDX will provide additional information as it becomes available. It's to be noted that the album was rumored to be called Good Ass Job, according to Kanye's five-year plan of progressing album through the College Dropout saga. |

Well that's disappointing, especially this apparent discontinuing of the College Dropout Saga. I guess he has a lot of stuff to get off his chest with his mom's death and sometimes singing feels a lot better in expressing emotions than rapping (not that rap can't be emotional).

QUOTE According to TMZ.com, Kanye West was arrested this morning at Los Angeles International Airport's American Airlines terminal for vandalism. Per the report, the superstar producer and rapper attacked a photographer after West felt his privacy was violated. West reportedly smashed the still photographer's camera after a scuffle, an exchange which was allegedly caught by a TMZ videographer. Noticing this, West and his assistant confronted the video cameraman, demanding the tape. At this time, both West and his assistant were arrested and apprehended. |

"Coldest Winter" is straight fire.
Edit: "Heartless" reminds me a lot of Phil Collins' "In the Air Tonight." "In the Air Tonight" is much better. |

damn i just listened to streetlights . i feel like i've heard half the songs on this album now
![]() i just watched an interview with kanye saying he wants his own genre called "pop art", he wants itunes to list his new music in that. boarder line silly to me, but hey, at least he knows he's working in another genre now. video link for anyone who wants to watch that press confrence interview gives opinions on pop music and him being into pop music now. interesting if you're a kanye fan. |

I listened to a remaster of "Love Lockdown" and it's definitely made me appreciate the song a lot more. It's definitely not my favorite 'Ye song ever but it's not the worst. That dishonor goes to "Drunk and Hot Girls." That damn song pissed me the f*ck off when I first heard it. I don't believe he AND Mos Def lowered themselves that much to record that piece of shit.

I didn't imagine his album to have songs like these. My favorites so far are probably Heartless & Streetlights.
I lalalove the video posted above though. The heart.. itssocute. Haha. Whatta nice idea. For some reason, the name of this album really got my attention lol. |

I listened to a remaster of "Love Lockdown" and it's definitely made me appreciate the song a lot more. It's definitely not my favorite 'Ye song ever but it's not the worst. That dishonor goes to "Drunk and Hot Girls." That damn song pissed me the f*ck off when I first heard it. I don't believe he AND Mos Def lowered themselves that much to record that piece of shit. ![]() As for his new jumpoff, Love Lockdown is growing on me, as well as his new sound. He'll never be able to put out another 'College Dropout' because his lifestyle has changed. His new approach to music suits him as well as the Armani he rocks. |

I don't particularly dislike AutoTune, but whyyyy does it have to be SO obvious on Kanye's tracks?
And, after listening to "The Coldest Winter" and "Amazing", both so much better than "Love Lockdown", I am totally confused on why he decide to release LL as the lead single. :/ |

It was a good move, even though Americans don't really get it, yet. There's a lot you can do with AutoTune. He's intentionally overdoing it. Think: Roger Troutman. |

It's just...it reminds me of Justin's SexyBack, which always kills me a little inside when I remember he can actually sing and being robot-ized never helps that. Also, I think the over-AutoTuning takes away from the emotional appeal (and abundance, I guess) of the album. Even though it wasn't the greatest quality singing, I prefer his voice in the Grammy version of Hey Mama than in LL specifically. Really, really loving Coldest Winter, though.

He is expected to release an album in May that is more of what we're accustomed to. So we'll see. 808s and Heartbreak is an album you have to get three of; one for the house, one for the car, and one to keep in the plastic 'cause you know it's a classic. |

I understand the direction Kanye is trying to take it and admire that, but I'm not really feeling this CD for the most part with the exception of Heartless and Coldest Winter.
Only reason I played Love Lockdown was because the bass sounds nice in my car. |

The album version of Robocop sounds alot different. So does a few other songs. The album isn't as good as his others but def worth a listen.
Amazing ft. Young Jeezy, See you In My Nightmares ft. Lil Wayne, Heartless & Coldest Winter are the best tracks IMO. The rest I don't care for. I'm with Evan though, Amazing is so freaking sick. |

I'm pretty sure it comes out the 24th of November, because the retail version already a while back, and now I see a link to the explicit version.

I'm going to buy the album, no doubt. However, I'm also deployed, and a child of the information age.
Filestube.com. Do a .rar search of '808 Heartbreak' and you can get your hands on a few tracks. |
