Kanye West - Late Registration

[DeJackyl]

Well shit, I was skeptic, but now I'm major, over and over again I'm major. You major? That beat, so simple, so made in one shot, but so off the scale.

Touch the sky bothers me a bit though, just cause 'Move on Up' is a master work that shouldn've been touched.

he left it rather untouched, just polished it a bit, but i think it sounds terrific.

i may point you to this site that collects the highest ratings of this year. as you can see, out of the 30 or so albums, there are exactly 4 albums that are rap (Common, Kanye, Edan and The Game). so i dare to say that you are wrong.

I thought it was pretty cool. I mean, he seems so nervous that it was not the most elocuent speech and in a typical Kanye fashion he was off the mark in a few spots. But just for the comment of 'George Bush doesnt care cabout black people' it was all worth it.
