A Turn For The Worse


Kanye West
808 and Heart Breaks in my opinion was truly a heart break for his career. Pretty much the entire album was in auto tune which was a very poor choice on his part. I have nothing against auto tune but only enjoy it when it is done in moderation and is done right. T-Pain is a great artist that uses auto tune and he pretty much built his name around it so that's what we know him has. Kanye on the other hand discovered it and took it too far, it is definitely not album worthy. His previous albums were a HUGE success compared to 808. “ The College Dropout” to this day has sold over 3 million copies while 808 sits at a little over 1 million, the numbers pretty much say it all. I used to be a huge Kanye fan when he had “the glory” mixtapes out and he would just destroy freestyles all day. Over the past year or two a lot of good rappers have gotten too into the radio bs and with stupid catchy songs and drifted away from songs with real verses. What Kanye needs o do is tap back into himself 2 years ago and get back into the mixtape game to get those other 2million real hip hop fans back.
P.S.
Sorry for being away for so long I have been studying for college finals over the past few weeks. I should be posting a lot more frequently now.
