I highly admire this man's music. From listening to his work and other artists like Common, I have realised to appreciate hip-hop and the original material of this genre even more. West's new track featuring Adam Levine "Heard 'Em Say" has a unique style that I am really enjoying. Can anyone recommend me more albums with music like this, stuff with real drumming or beats (no TR 909 type stuff) and stabs or melodies that sound soft and comfortable.

what do you like best about his music? the irritating pitched-up chipmunk singing or the totally obnoxious "forever ever everevereevreeverever" chorus?

Yeah, I heard Quasimoto said that he was glad there's some hip hop on the radio he actually likes. Chuck D is a fan too.

True, I don't necessarily like that part of Diamonds, but the intro is great. I think. What I like about his music is the deep city, really true feeling. I

If Kayne West was on Stone's Throw, all these backpacker kids would love him. Face the fact that sometimes good music can get into the charts!

He was on British MTV and he said that 50 cent didn't interest him, but he thought Kanye had something to say.

Ha, yeah. Remember when all the indie kids were talking about Rawkus records like it was the only good hip hop label in the world?

The tipping point, while not as good as their previous albums, was one of the top albums of 2004 for me and Mos Def had a good party-ish thing going with the new danger.. Blackalicious haven't been making good since Blazing Arrow, true, and Lyrics Borns solo thingie rocket ship something something makes me stress...

dear kanye,
you are the best thing to happen to (commercial) hiphop in a long time, if ever. while i don't listen to your music on my own time, such as in my car or at home, i think that you are a great producer and have a unique sound that surpasses most hiphop, and other music in general, in terms of structure, melody, quality of sound, etc.
big ups kanye, you are one of the few that deserve every ounce of success that you recieve.
ps, please don't whack out and please keep working with Common. slip him a Mickey while you are at it, and maybe he'll go back to his Resurrection days. you can do orangewatermelon-revisted.
love, somejerk

i agree with what you said about Blackalicious. something is missing from the new one, i can't even remember what it's called it's so insignificant. i really enjoyed the New Danger from Mos, a log of people hated it.

i disagree - melodica was the only thing close to a good full length they had, chief xcel CANT produce a full length and gift of gab, although talented, cant last long they would be great at making ep's
the best stuff besides that ep is "fully charged on planet x" and the cut chemist 2 minute workout - they have like 6 songs that are fucking AMAZING and the rest are utter garbage
i lost interest when soulsides became quannum
