I feel like this entire summer, starting with SNL in May, has been one long performance art piece by Kanye. I'm loving it all, down to the $120 Hip Hop T-Shirt (which I will not purchase), the "attacks" on TMZ (eff 'em), and claiming New Slaves is the greatest thing ever (lolz).

I'm confused. So this is good now?

The scenes up till the "opening credits" felt very much like the beginning of an episode of LOST.

For three free mixtapes, I think it's the best production quality I've ever heard. I'll be curious to see how it sounds when he drops an official LP.

Common's voice has resonated less with me as I've gotten older, but I still appreciate his message. The album's pretty good, I'd put it in between Be and Finding Forever in terms of his later albums. My favorite verse on the album was from Nas though, can't wait for that dude's album.

I didn't find anything nothing wrong with the genuine enthusiasm the whole cast was projecting. It fit with the holiday theme and I thought they capped it off nicely with the ice skating.

me so christmas

POP POP.

The writers totally could have gone for the jugular and didn't.

Clams Casino is definitely the name that impressed me the most on this mixtape, but I do like ASAP's flow. He's nowhere near the savior that some people have (unsurprisingly) dubbed him as, but his sound is definitely interesting.
