Kanye West - 808s and Heartbreak

2008 will definitely be known as the year of the auto-tune and somewhere in the world, and Kanye West’s new LP, 808s and Heartbreak, is a departure from the traditional hip-hop album and a testament to Kanye’s growth as an artist. In fact, he’s singing on the whole album, taking a more introspective look into his own life’s trials and tribulations. Yea, it sounds kinda ridiculous at first, but could anyone besides ‘Ye pull it off? No sir. Moved up a day from the normal new release Tuesday, you can cop the album anywhere fine music is sold.
