Kanye West: Here's a Toast & Power

"Let’s have a toast for the douchebags
Let’s have a toast for the assholes
Let’s have a toast for the scumbags
Every one of them that I know
Let’s have a toast for the jerkoffs that never take work off
Baby I got a plan, run away as fast as you can”

"Here's a Toast" is kind of a weird song, but I guess Kanye West wanted to show the world that he can make fun of himself? The beat of the song is definitely a different one, but I think I dig it... I think. At least he can raise a toast to himself... he would be selfish like that. OK OK I'm sorry that was mean, but I thought I should stick up for Taylor Swift...



I DO, however, like his song "Power," although it at times reminds me of "Jesus Walks." I think he shows off his genius in this song, which kind of takes you away from all of the sh*t that has surrounded him for a while. I guess it's like a Chris Brown case: can we just listen to his music anymore without thinking about the b.s. that he may have said or done?

Find Your Love

Holler to the Canadian! Woot Woot!

Actually, to be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of Drake (although he was pretty good in his Degrassi days!), but I love this song (and the video!). Doesn't the beat and his voice sound a little like Kanye's "Love Lockdown" in the beginning though? Have a listen...

Ain't Nothin' Like a Brooklyn Girl

Never heard this up-town boy, but Charles Hamilton is da bomb dot com.

The beat kinda takes some flavours from Kanye West's usual beats (with the high-pitched, fast-forwarded girl voice mashed with a sick hip-hop/RnB beat) - and this mix seems to work well for him!

Keri Hilson CD Release!

DAMN STRAIGHT! After her break in Timbaland's Way I Are video, Keri Hilson has been rising to the top with her hits. She's been singing with other well-known artists such as Lil Wayne, Usher, Ludacris, Ciara and now with Kanye West and Ne-Yo. We should be seeing big things from this American-born girl in the future and hopefully her album will hit #1 on the charts!

Listen to "Knock You Down" ft. Kanye West & Ne-Yo:

Kanye West on American Idol

Kanye West performed his setting release "Heartless" on American Idol on March 11th. But man, couldn't he have picked a more upbeat song?! By listening to most of his songs on his recent album 808s & Heartbreak, he seems to be going through a pretty rough love-spell. Don't get me wrong, it's an aight song, but I think I would have liked to hear something that makes me wanna dance.

Keri Hilson + Kanye West Sittin in a Tree....

K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

Keri Hilson and Kanye West are dating, and Hilson decided to make a video about it in her new video called "Make Love". You can kind of tell that it was produced by Timbaland (if you know his style and heard a lot of his songs). The plus side to this video? Kanye doesn't speak in this one.

The video is not available on YouTube yet, but you can view the video on Kanye's blog HERE.
