Kanye West – “When I See It”
October 29, 2015
Spent the whole summer trying to be at the wrong place at the right time…
Maybe Yeezy’s singing li’l shorty to his ‘shawty’ (Kim) over The Weeknd’s “Tell Your Friends†instrumental. “When I See It” is an electro-mellow melody that’s over with before you know it. Cool though.
Kanye West Performing “Gold Digger” Back In 2003 (Video)
September 25, 2015
Yeezus H. West! Back before Ye went beast mode in the game, he was doing conference gigs just like a lot of cats… only they did not likely have John Legend on the keys. Ha!
The beat is waaaay different, less-evolved than what you’d recognize as “Gold Digger” but listen to the lyrics and there is no doubt. Watch some throwback Kanye goodness.

Kanye West feat. Paul McCartney – “Only One” (Video)
January 29, 2015
Kanye West is the greatest hip hop artist of this generation & he consistently proves it. A keen attention to detail, socially relevant commentary within his music, an a willingness to take risks. Check out this latest video called ‘Only One’ featuring Sir Paul McCartney which is dedicated to Kanye’s beautiful daughter ‘Nori’. I don’t usually get caught up into celebrity babies & crap like that, but Kanye & Kim Kardashian most definitely have the cutest kid amongst new celebrity parents. As a fan of Kanye West the artist, I’m definitely looking forward to what he hits us with next.

Chris Rock Says Kanye West’s ‘MBDTF’ Is Probably The Best Album In The Last 25 Years (Video)
December 1, 2014
Social media has been abuzz about Chris Rock’s recent statements in a promo interview for his new film ‘Top 5’ when he made statements about Kanye West’s now classic ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ album. Chris Rock says stated that he believes that Kanye’s ‘MBDTF’ album could probably be the best album over Michael Jackson’s iconic ‘Thriller’ album & the best album overall in the last 25 years. I don’t know if I can say the impact was greater than Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ album, but Kanye West is this hip hop generation’s equivalent to Michael Jackson in so many ways. The difference is that Kanye West does indeed make popular records that also make you think. I know Kanye West is the most popular hip hop artist in the world today, but I’ll also add that he’s also one of the most important artists in the last 10 years or more.

Kanye West – Live At The Wireless Festival 2014 (Video)
July 14, 2014
Turns out they did celebrate on the 4th of July in the UK this year… likely due to Kanye West being over there to rock at Finsbury Park, London. Some older and current jawns brought to the mass of worshippers gathered to watch Yeezus deliver his litany of hits at this year’s Wireless Festival. Nowadays, with all the mobile and camera tech folks bring, isn’t every festival ‘wireless’ (just saying)?
Bigger question: What was going on with the girl in the red dress near the beginning (above)? Did she pass out or something? Incredible show, and that was just the beginning. More crowd’s eye view footage after the jump.
