Am I the only one let down that this man didn’t come out with “Good Ass Job” like he was supposed too after Graduation? Then the whole Auto Tune crap he threw in. I mean god bless her soul but I really think his mom passing has pushed genius into madness cause this CD is not something I am waiting for. Maybe if I was a female or something but come on Ye!

nothing wrong with it but kayne is a angry undercover gay just waiting to throw another hissy fit

Dude’s mom just died and his fiance was nonsupport and they broke up. Its not a gimmick. This is his therapy. Its his way of dealing with it. Why shouldn’t he profit from his pain??

i think he’s gay. that is no joke.. i dont no y?? i think hes fighting that!! hes just a straight acting gay man.. i have a strong feeling.. i will be copping the album though.. love lockdown video strikes me as super gay.. i dunno.. thats my boy though

somebodies really trying to prove those gay roomers truE!

#23 Chris please shut the fuck up! Kanye West is a fucking musical genius, I guess that u are the kind of hooligan who enjoys lame performers like Chris Brown, and dat other lil nobody dat i forgot his name, the one who made ” The Bizness”….that is real hip hop to you huh? get ur big gay ass out of here! And all of you other dummies hating on my man Kanye can suck a big fat d—ck!

Yah this is definately a different look for ‘Ye…but if the music’s right, who cares how he looks, right?

@Cali
Kayne is not a “Genius”. And you calling me gay is funny as hell when you nut hugging gay ass Kanye West.

I love when people who don’t know real music tell me that people like Kanye and Beyonce are Geniuses. LMAO

Kayne is a great PRODUCER as Rapper he is paper thin and as a solo artist he is not compelling or different. I think he is a homo to be frank.
Kanye dresses like people have been dressing LONG before him.
He just bites others. Andre 3000 is 100 times more creative and talented and has his own style that is not taken from British GQ or Macy’s so give me BREAK.

I like REAL Rappers.
Andre 3000
KRS 1
NAS
Common
Talib

i think hes GREAT.. y cant he be great and GAY?

KANYE IS NOT GAY! IKNOW BECAUSE I SLEPT WITH HM! HE IS PACKING MUCH D–CK! AND HE IS D BEST ENTERTAINER OUT NOW HANDS DOWN!!!!

YES you can be great and gay. I have not problem with Kayne being Gay he seems to have the problem. He had Ellen on his personal Blog saying how “great” she is…Suspect! LOL

Kayne should just be himself nobody cares. I don’t.

I like Kanye don’t get me wrong he is a GREAT producer not a great rapper and he is not the innovative with his music. Again Andre 3000, Tricky, M.I.A, TVOR, these are people who really Push things in terms of music not Kanye West. He wants to be a POP star that is his ambition not making great music. I did love Can’t tell me Nothing and Stronger but again not really anything NEW.

Kanye has addressed homophobia in Hip Hop which is good and he spoke out for Katrina Victims but he has a long way to go with being a Genius.

like he should start with addressing his own sexuality but people like him and Queen Latifah think they are smarter by not saying YES i’m gay.

@Chris,he does have a song about his mother,it leaked this past week,”Coldest Winter”

CHRIS IT APPEARS DAT U ARE GAY! HOW CAN A ‘STRAIGHT’ MAN HATE ON BEYONCE? SEEMS LIKE U WANNA BE LIKE HER LOL! I CAN CARE LESS ABOUT BEYONCE, BUT WHEN U START HAYING ON KANYE, OH DATS A PROBLEM!!!!! CHRIS………STOP TUCKING UR PACKAGE, COME OUT OF THE CLOSET, AND QUIT HATING ON MY MAN KANYE!

WOOP Genius aka Kanye, he’s doing his thing. He’s been thru a lot and I love how much feeling he’s put into his album. I personally like the singing and rapping even with autotune. Check coldest winter. Beautiful song. I’m defintely gettin it, credit crunch an all. JSCENE Preach… lol

( CHRIS, wats wrong with Ellen DeGeneres. Saying she’s great makes him suspect HOW…)

@ CALI

Maybe being out in Cali you don’t get it. I would say about 90% of Beyonce’s fans are gays. Gay girls and gay guys. I mean look at how she dances…and that whole Sacha deal that is influenced by gays. I live in NYC and I get my hair cut by this gay school and they do the Beyonce dances and sing her songs…LOL It’s funny.

Again it’s cool. Gay people tend to be creative and stuff. But I don’t like Beyonce’s music at all. It makes no sense. If i see a brother singing “Put a Ring on It” or “If I was a Boy” I might be a little suspect. Not saying that means anyone is gay but most guys may appreciate how she looks not her music.

The women I find sexy are women like Erykah Badu, Lauryen Hill, Rosario Dawson, Rihanna is hot looking. Buy I also like women with something upstairs. I see 100 Beyonce’s every day she is nothing special look wise. Angela Simmions could be like Beyonce if she had any talent….lol

@TETE

I’m going to have to check out Coldest Winter

[...] kommentiert wurden schon die Promo-Bilder zum neuen Album von West. Er mit Sonnen-Brille in einem grauen Anzug mit Karo-Muster. Weißes [...]

I agree with #26 BUT he is talented!

So let’s see:
Chris has dumped the caribbean creep rihanna, and didn’t fall for the con. Now
Kanye has rebuffed her
TI has told her where to go
and Now we’re back to her trying hard to get another AMERICAN MILLIONAIRE, JayZ, who HAS JUST MARRIED the woman of his dreams, BEYONCE, and there are fools somewhere in the world rooting for her to destroy BEYONCE’s marriage, just cause they’re jealous???
Wow! Now that is what you call major stupidity

Why isn’t she friends with black american starlets like Ciara, Janet, Sanaa, Fantasia or tyra???

Could she be just another caribbean creep looking to use american black men to get money to spend on white folks, just like the stupid Taye Diggs, Naomi, Grace Jones, and all the other self hating caribbean fools??? I THINK SO. All the evidence points to it.

At least Kanye is coming with something different, Beyonce is packaging the same thing and labeling it as “different”. I like the space that Kanye is in right now.

ITS FUNNY HOW SO MANY OF YOU HAVE SO MUCH MOUTH AGAINST THIS GUYS.
MOST OF YOU HAVE NEVER EVEN BEEN IN A PROFESSIONAL STUDIO. AND IF YOU HAVE, YOU WERE PROBABLY THERE TO WATCH.
YOU DON’T HAVE GOLD, PLATINUM, OR EVEN BRASS RECORD. YOU DON’T EVEN HAVE A PAPER RECORD.
HE’S BEEN IN THE GAME AND MADE HIS MARK. WHATEVER HE DOES FROM THIS POINT IS HIS BUSINESS. YOU CAN MAKE YOUR LITTLE RUDE COMMENTS ALL YOU WANT BUT IN THE END HE IS STILL RICHER THAN YOU, MOSTLY FLYER THAN YOU, HAS SEEN MORE OF THE WORLD THAN YOU EVER WILL. AND WILL STAY BE KANYE.

AND WHERE ARE YOU? IN FRONT OF YOUR COMPUTER COMMENTING HIS LIFE. YOUR ACTIONS SHOULD MAKE YOU FEEL DUMB ON ITS OWN.

this boy looks like a gay crackhead from 1964.is this boy serious if u dont take that gay ass heart off your blazer and loosin ur belt a bit.he looks like a banna republic maniquin.or alvin from the chipmunks dressed for easter sunday.somebody help this confused backpacker get back to the chi.he is definately sky high with this look.

I just want to know why one of his legs are bent like he’s a frustrated girlfriend of a nigga taking too long in the corner store? Or then again, Why is his leg bent like he’s doing a subtle American Top Model pose..but only it’s the DL version of it? I have so many questions but don’t care enough to even ask. New Image/Gimmick or not…I’m just not feeling his pics…or his leaked singles but May God bless him and all of us.

ur right km.some of us r on our computers.but then again im on a g4 headed to london.and i have plenty of time to get there.so i have nothing but time to hate on a so called man who sports purses and backpacks,and rocks womens scarves around like its something all men do.this boy got a little tranny in him.sorry km.and those songs he produces u know the hit songs, are all sampled this kid is not original. im a investment banker and ive worked hard to get where im at.if i knew i can steal someone elses dreams to make it big.it probaly wouldnt have took me until i was 36 to make a couple hundred mill.

OMG, he looks so handsome. Just saw his profile on millionaire dating site “”"”"M e e t i n g R i c h . c o m”"”"”"” last week. I am wondering what kind of relationship he is looking for on that site. Is he single now? Just curious!☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

IT’S OFFICIAL!!! I can’t take no more of his buuuuuuuuuulshit! I used to rep Kanye real hard back in the day, but no more… The new joints he been dropping are pure bullshit and lets face it, he’s not exactly the most handsomest dude in the game, so why ruin it further more with that ass-ridiculous look?? Puuh-leez! Those glasses are fucking killing me!!!

Don’t get me wrong I feel for him losing his moms and all, but he’s just tryin to damn hard… To be different, innovative or whatever, but it’s just to damn forced if you ask me! I’m just sayin….

And dudes productions are slacking too!!! Both on his own garbage-shit and others…

It has been major heartbreak after losing his mom… lata for Alexis women come and go if it is meant to be they will come together later on…..

Love Lockdown video is a scene from the movie American Psycho perhaps the basis of his cd after all that he’s been thru… Kanye is creative enough I give him that but this year him as well as a slew of other artists are reaching and tapping into OPP…. lol… and that’s just how it is everything comes full circle….

[...] These are the brand new promo photos for Kanye West’s upcoming album “808 & Heartbreak.” Photos were taken by fashion photographer William Vanderperre whose past campaigns have included heavy weights such as Chanel. It is rumored that Kanye will be using Vanderperre’s services for an upcoming Pastelle fashion shoot as well. That is of course if Pastelle will actually ever be released. (Photo Source) [...]

He is in a similar vein as Andre 3000…conceptualizing his albums. Artists material reflects what they are going through at the moment. This is a concept album ya’ll…. get in. Someone got the picture on here a few posts ago. He’s a heartbroken, besheveled brotha. As for the whole album being in autotune. I think i would just leave all that to T-pain;too much is just plain overkill. I wish you much success Kanye… You are a innovator…keep it up.

I actually think Kanye is very handsome and talented….he’s just a little troubled over the loss of his mama/bestfriend, that’s why he acts/acting the way he does….the above pic looks like an adorable troubled lil’ boy.

I FOR ONE, AM ONE OF THE MANY THAT BELIEVES KANYE IS A GENIUS.

WHY?? U ASK….

BECAUSE HE WENT FROM BEING A REGULAR DUDE (LIKE ANYONE ELSE) WITH A DREAM & BROUGHT IT TO FRUITION….

THEN ON TOP OF MANIFESTING HIS DREAM, THRU-OUT ALL OF THE HARDSHIPS & HURDLES (see Outro of College Dropout to get the specifics), HE MANAGES TO BECOME THE BEST AT IT……. NO ONE SAW HIM COMING!!!!

AND THAT, LADIES & GENTLEMEN, IS Getting Out Our Dreams G.O.O.D.

PEACE.

I SECOND THAT #95 KM!!!! TELL ‘EM! (ESPECIALLY DUMBASS CHRIS AKA. FURIOUS STYLES)…. WHAT A WHACK ASS “RAPPER NAME”

DUDE PROBABLY NEVER EVEN LISTENED TO A KANYE RECORD A DAY IN HIS LIFE!!!

LOL

HATERS SLAY ME.

GAY AS HELL!!!!

I honestly don’t see how anyone can find this “look” attractive. I don’t get what he is trying to do..sorry Ye, I just don’t. This look confuses me and he seriously looks mentally unstable in these pics. And I don’t like “Love Lockdown”. He sings off tune in it and I know that’s supposed to add “character” to the song but it just doesnt do it for me. It’s boring, I’m not even interested in hearing/buying his new album. After the last few songs he put out I thought for sure his new album was gonna be fire! But after hearing this one and then of course hearing the reviews that he sings on 90% of the album..naw I’m gonna pass this time for real.

This album gon’ be dope. All you haters carry on talking, I guess you’ll be talked about in Ye’s next freestyle.

Go get em’ Yezzy.

he looks great, the pictures are awsome, and different, i guess people want to see some fake ass gangster shit, whatever, his suit is soo cool, and coldest winter is such a good song, im buying this album

KANYES GETTIN A LIL TOO ODD FOR ME….
