Kanye West is a little upset that the unfinished version of his newest video, “Paranoid” (starring Rihanna) was leaked earlier this week. Peep what he wrote on his blog on Wednesday:
It hurts me to see the old and very wrong version of the Paranoid video get leaked all over the net while I was on an 11hr flight and couldn’t do anything about it. It’s just frustrating when this stuff happens because I really care about the product and since videos never get played any way you might as well tweak them and make them as special as possible. The version that got leaked from the camera phone last week is at least a little closer to the final product. Thank you everybody for your support but that video was not up to my standards..
I’m actually glad that wasn’t the finished version, I stopped watching mid-way through because I wasn’t feeling it. No word on when he will release the finished version of the vid.
MARIO SPEAKS ON NEW ALBUM
Mario recently sat down for a brand new interview and spoke about his upcoming album, “And Then There Was Me”. The album, Mario’s fourth effort and first since 2007s “Go,” is already confirmed to feature Sean Garrett and Gucci Mane.
“My last album was very R&B driven. I would say this one is still very musical but it’s not as R&B as my last record. One of the things I feel like has kept me around as an artist in our generation is the fact that I have made transitions on each album and (am still) continuing to do that you know… I want to say everything that I’ve done, even outside of music (you know doing TV shows and doing shows out of the country) all of it influences me as an artist. You’ll hear that on the album, it’s a lot different.”
