808's & Heartbreak: Kanye West's Major Music Review
Fresh off the AMA win Mr. West is back with his fourth album 808s & Heartbreak and its set to debut November 24th. This album was a big surprise to be honest because I was already writing it off as a Huff version of Andre 3000's "Love Below" and Pe$0 can co-sign that haha, but 808’s and HeartBreak is a good album and perfect alternative pick. This album has 11 tracks and each song has a similar vibe to make the album a complete package. Some songs like “streetlights” and “say you will” are good tracks, but they would have been even better tracks if he wrote or produced it for someone like Chris Martin or Santogold. Tracks like “Paranoid” and “Amazing” have more of Kanye West vibe and they could have been on any of his previous albums. Teleport to listen to "Amazing" and read the rest of the review:
"Amazing"
Ye also has a duet with no other that Lil wayne on the track “See you in my nightmares”. This album only has room for one Rapper/voicebox singer. That song would have been a crack collabo if Lil Wayne would have just spit a 16 like how Young Jeezy did on “Amazing”, instead of singing and sounding like trash. You can tell Weezy was trying to outshine Ye but he was unsuccessful.Kanye West 808’s and Heartbreak won’t be a waste of time if you add it to your current playlist. It’s different and not annoying like I thought it would be and I definitely recommend it.
I plan on settin aside time to listen to the album tho. Hopefully over Thanksgiving Break . . . I'll get back with my opinion on whether I agree or not.
And yes you did refer to it as a huff Love Below, haha

Here are a few terms we actively use in our blog. We want to make sure our readers understand our slang, it just makes the experience more enjoyable. OD- This term stands for "Over Dose". It means when something is crazy wild in a good way, or too extra in a bad way. Walking down the DC streets wearing Teva sandals, socks, and shorts in the winter time is OD! In the same respect, the new Mercedes Benz C63AMG is OD!
Dope- We use this quite a bit when talking about a product or movie, it's just another word for cool
Crack- Not as controversial as it sounds, we use "crack' to describe something that is just out of this world fresh. We may say something like: That new EF post is CRACK!!
Went In- When a rapper shows extreme lyrical ability in a verse or whole track.
Rastio Lyool- A close friend to the EF family. Originally from Africa Rastio migrated from Jamaica to Brooklyn, NY. He played a large role in the "eh doesn't affect me" movement of the 90's. Rastio is like Tommy off Martin, ya digg.
Fux With It- We use this when referencing something we really like. If your in Stussy or CmonWealth and you see a crack pair of kicks you'd say: "oh these are crack, I fux with them"!
Huff- use this when you talk about something WACK...Like if you see dude rocking some Kool-aid Reeboks, you'd say "damn, his shoe game is HUFF" you can also use the term to describe when you get carried. So if you're talking to a shorty, and you ask for her number, she looks you up and down, blinks 3 times and walks away...you got HUFFED!
Teleport - This converts a person or object into an energy pattern (a process called dematerialization), then "teleports" it to a target, where it is reconverted into matter (rematerialization)...in short it lets you read the full post
Takedownables - This is a new term DCBG created to describe dimes or beautiful women who are simply irresistible, and therefore must be taken down accordingly. Being a takedownable is the ultimate status and compliment, better than winning Ms. Universe or World's Sexiest Woman. Hope this helps you understand the lingo.
That's Kanyes new clothing line right? when is Pastelle coming out?
