    "Things used to be, now they're not.
    Anything but us is who we are
    Disguising ourselves as secret lovers
    We've become public enemies
    We walk away like strangers in the street
    Gone for eternity, we erased one another
    So far from where we came with so much of everything
    How do we leave with nothing?"
    He's a fucking genius.

    Kanye is one of those few artists today that hasn't released one disappointing album. College Dropout was what got me into him. Late Registration got me addicted to him. Graduation showed how well Kanye can adapt with mainstream music and still make it sound amazing. 808's showed me Kanye's dark emotional side. MBDTF made him my favorite artist. That album is flawless. Keep it up Ye.

    ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’
    An artistic masterpiece of an album that tells a story about the beauty and dangers of fame and love presented in amazing ways with extremely realistic musical elements with pianos and orchestral sounds, and amazing usage of sampling small elements of some know/unknown 1960’s, 1970’s & early 1980’s old school songs to make something completely original. Also extraordinary mature subject matter used very well lyrically throughout the album. Whether you like Kanye or not this thing is thing is a masterpiece that won’t be forgotten.

    This song literally brings tears to my eyes, it makes me remember all the shit kanye has been through, We are so vicious and so unforgiving, that we are the first to pounce on kanye for making simple mistakes. Yet, we enjoy his music and greedily absorb his messages meant for the greater good. This song truly makes me think, that the whole world is playing the blame game...on poor kanye. Kanye, spread your wings, and fly away, fly away to Heaven where you came from.

It's been a long time, since Kanye, has been free to speak his mind, without Any Lines?? Right? Why do we Love The "Blame Game? " Do we need to see more? Or will the "Blame Game" be enough for us all to Dark? Let's play the "Blame game" I love you more.... Let's call out names, names for sure... I can't love you this much..

    Everyone is saying that he stole Aphex's work like wtf, havent y'all heard of sampling? That's literally what Kanye is known for, he samples a beat or chorus but improves upon it and makes it his own. And let's not forget that the lyrics of the song are what make it so special.

    • @anjopag31
      @anjopag31 8 років тому +2

      +dania_ tha_Realest (miss lamar) he may have sampled it, but the way he used the sample ruined the song. the original piece was melancholy and peaceful, but this just overlayed some rap, made it trendy, and boom, you have it
      but it's all down to opinion

    • @MrEp5
      @MrEp5 8 років тому +3

      +ur aesthetic is rather pleasing On Kanye sampling Drukqs’ “Avril 14th” on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’s
      “Blame Game”: “Is it a sample? I actually don't know what it ended up
      being in the end, I'm so slack. I know that he tried to fucking rip me
      off and claim that he'd written it, and they tried to get away with not
      paying. I was really helpful, and when they first sent it to me, I was
      like, ‘Oh, I can re-do that for you, if you like,’ because they'd
      sampled it really badly and time-stretched it and there was loads of
      artifacts. I was like, ‘I'll just replay it for you at that speed if you
      want.’ And they totally didn't even say ‘hello’ or ‘thanks,’ they just
      replied with, ‘It's not yours, it's ours, and we're not even asking you
      any more.’” [laughs]

      +matt "to sample when you are making money off the song, you NEED to approach the artist about the rights to the song first" LIES. You approach the group who has the rights to the song. Aphex did not have the rights to Avril 14th. Chrysalis Music did. Kanye approached them and paid for the right to sample it. END OF STORY.
