I hated Flashing Lights. I associated it too much with Drunk & Hot Girls so I ended up heavily disliking it. The Mos Def feature was wasted IMO.

And new version of Power? You mean just with the brief Power sampling in the movie?

You hate Flashing Lights? Or you hated. Life or death question here.

Yea I mean the sampling he did in the movie. The sampling + beat + strings are consuming my head. Reminds me of the VH1 storytellers show
 
How can you hate Flashing Lights?! OMFG....im going to pummel you.

Also Ye giving a shout to Pink Floyd and TV on the Radio...:D

Hated. I don't mind it now, but I wouldn't put it anywhere in a list of my top 25 Ye songs. The verse with the Mona Lisa/Rome/Caesar line is good but the song never resonated with me like the rest of Graduation did.
 
Kanye says some awesome shit in these interviews but he is so wierd cause like after every response, his face turns to like this stiff angry look...like wtf....its so wierd. Like even when laughs he will quickly change his face to this certain look, everytime, Like he's a robot going back to default position. so fucking wierd

My overall impressions: music is incredible, the film itself was the corniest imitation of "serious" art I have ever seen

I like how he compared it to Felini and Kubrick during the interview with Sway. :lol
 
Thank you @ yencid for this dope assed avatar. I think I'll use one of those generators to change it to VJ from time to time but I love the hell out of this avatar that I might not even do that. :lol
 
:D you and everyone is welcome. I've had an awesome night but now i am going to sleep. Good night! im guessing the discussion will be going back to the MBDTF thread...


BTW is the album going to have an OT? if so i wants to help whenever that comes :D

The kubrick name drop to me confirmed that he surrounds himself with people who worship him and have led him to believe he shits gold.

He almost needs to man :lol. Way too much negativity coming from every side of his life to have to deal with it all the time.
 
All of the Lights > Flashing Lights

Video was nice, could've/should've been shorter, though I really liked the ballet solo even though it should have been a constant shot and not cut up, IMO.
 
I thought this was pretty cool.

It’s nutty enough to clearly be a vanity project for Kanye, but I like that nuttiness about it.

the music is, for the most part, pretty great. Kanye’s awesome.
 
I was impressed. It's fantastic to see a musician encompass art in a formal manner. Kanye is kinda a genius for this. Pretty ballsy.
 
8 minutes in...WTF is this nonsense? :lol

edit: this was a horrible "movie". I liked some of the music though. I don't really like Kanye's rapping tho. :P
 
Expecting Oscar worthy scenes, acting or dialogue from a Kanye video is like expecting a complex and intricate plot from a Street Fighter game.

The music is good, which is all that matters.
 
Artistically stunning. I've got it playing again in the background just to hear the music. The Soundtrack is fucking amazing.
 
Looks like I'm the only one who liked this version of Runaway... movie was a mixed bag for me overall, definitely enjoyed it tho; felt like it flew by
 
I heard somewhere that there's an official "Runaway" music video which consists solely of the Runaway portion of the movie, kinda makes me wonder if there's an extended version of the "All The Lights" scene coming...

how is this even possible

what was that song in the flick that sampled Smokey Robinson? I remember it leaking a long time ago. Loved it then, love it now.

I think you mean this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7_jYl8A73g&feature=player_embedded

its just the Runaway part from the video I think, although its 8 minutes long so it might be a bit more than that

In what flick? Runaway?
 
Trapped in the closet impressions when I first heard about this. Planned on watching since I'm a Kanye fan but ended up missing it.

that would be Devil in a New Dress...imo the most over looked track so far. Everyone is dick ridin the rest of the album, but that track is pure gold.
 
What does the dude say to Kanye after he tells him he is dating a bird? Right after Kanye says, "oh, i never noticed that"? Sounds like he says, "she belongs in a zoo"..

:lol...Honestly I think that anyone that actually gave a shit about the Taylor Swift incident is an irrational nincompoop.

Pretty much.

It goes to show how much excitement there is for his return.

From both the fans and the hypocritical press who are all on his nuts again.

he's a very different person from a few years back. I won't speculate lol
 
Watching again and am still blown away by the music. Loved the version of Runaway. Devil in a blue dress is very underrated as stated earlier. Have always loved Kanye's use of strings with hip-hop. They go together like cocaine and waffles.
 
the beat on Dark Fantasy is abusrd. I'm such a fan of the old school, grimey beats.

However (I know I will get flamed so hard for this), I'm convinced Kanye has gone to the dark side.
