Music Mondays

I wanted to post this video several Mondays ago, but blah blah excuse blah--here it is. Be warned, it has a lot of profanity. If you'd like to follow along with the lyrics, you can click here.




Now, I know some of you don't like Kanye West.

I don't think he really cares.

I like this song for a number of reasons: the beat, the movie clips and of course, the rhymes. I haven't really liked anything Jay-Z has put out since he retired a few years ago and unretired three weeks later. But this song has made a believer out of me once again.

I also think Kanye's line, Prince Williams a'int do it right if you ask me, cause I was him I woulda married Kate and Ashley has got to go down as one of the top rap lyrics of all time. He name checks 4 people in one line, one of whom is the future King of England. I don't know that it gets much better than that.

Comments? Leave 'em for me. And is it too late to say Happy New Year? Probably...but Happy New Year anyway ;)

  2. I do really like kanye's music, and I also really dislike how embarrassed I feel for liking it because of some of the awful things he says just for the sake of being hateful. I remember hearing once that he had a gay cousin or something, and unlike many rappers he didn't have homophobic lyrics (or not to the extent)--and then a couple years ago that changed, came out with his "no homo" stuff, and it really bums me out.
