      He is a real one. Probably the only celebrity that can admit to his wrongs and humble his self. When you are that humble it doesn't matter what they take from you because you know there is a higher meaning to this life. When you have that spiritual Awakening nothing matters anymore you are just here to learn.

    Kanye stands from a long table with black people all dressed in white, except this one woman. As he starts playing the piano, ballerinas all dressed in black run in two lines to dance to his tune. They're all the same, and as he raps he faces the dancers and not the table (audience). The people at the table pay him no mind at all except for when they raise their glasses for the toast. But this woman, the colourful one who really doesn't fit in, has her whole body turned to him, watching him. He has all her attention. As soon as he stops playing the tune, the dancing women leave as quickly as they arrived. He goes on to take his seat and she's still looking at him, almost admiring him. Not bothered by anything he says (him telling her to run away). I think it's the reason why he doesn't face her throughout the whole 'show'.. She stands out in so many ways.. lol it's midnight here.

    C'mon how can someone dislike this song? It's pure music art.. which hip hopper or rapper do dat now? No one, no one can be compared to Kanye.. you can criticize his behavior but not his music talent.. this is probably the best hip hop album ever.. it gives me every time so many fucking emotions.. god thank you Kanye..

      +Pietro Corsi He can't sing for real or play an instrument... all he does is play a couple of notes in the piano (a monkey could do the same) and let the computer sing for him... he is not a musician

      Talent? Are you guys fucking high?? Hitting 3 fucking keys with horrible emphasis is not a pianist. His singing is off at times, hes not as great as millions of unheard artists.

      +Michael Little Thunder It's one of the greatest hip hop abums of all time. Every hip hop artists or critics agrees with it.

    This is a bona fide masterpiece in every level. Im a 70s 60s music freak, and this albums is one of the most soulful and genius of the last few decades.
