I keep not learning my lesson when it comes to GA tickets at arena shows. If that's a more palatable price to those who held out, though, go for it. Fuuuck yes thank you just copped two tickets

I saw the Bound 2 video on Ellen. First time I've ever heard a Kanye West song. At first I thought it was a joke. When I was informed it was not, it became one of the funniest things I've seen and heard in a while. One of the lines sounded to me like a Fight Club reference so I had to look up the lyrics. quote:Walking 'round, always mad reputation I laughed out loud at that. I always heard he was some sort of genius.

I waited all day to come home and see this video. Jesus Christ Kanye is a madman. Bound 2 is the last video that needs to be made until robots take over music.

I love that he's made (what I guess is supposed to be) a romantic video that directly equates his fiancee with a pretty cool dirtbike.

Bound 2 video is incredible. The widespread vitriol is very silly. Like it's amazing to me that people enter with the presupposition that Kanye doesn't understand irony. The first 35 seconds alone service as a hilarious montage of ultra-Americana made out as totally fatuous; like as if he wasn't just recently attacked for appropriating the Confederate flag and didn't just drop an album with a song titled Black Skinhead on it. At first sight I'm tempted to say it's not even very implicit, the video is super antagonistic.

It almost seems as though Kanye harbors resentment that Ray J has a sex tape with his wife. Then made this video to try to mark his territory.

Scored a nice ticket to the Barclays show tonight. I'm going alone which I've never done before but from reading everyone's experiences I'm excited about this.

I apologize for being condescending and snarky. It's art, and art is subjective. I'm older and don't listen to a lot of new music (happens to a lot of us after a certain age), and I had not listened to Kanye West. I knew of him from news and his PR but never once listened to him perform before this Bound 2 video. I guess it is just not my style of music\art. Carry on Kanye, carry on.

I dig that his stuff isn't your deal, and that's totally cool, but the way you came in all "Never listened to this Kanye fella" came off as deliberately obnoxious. And I might be wrong, but I'm fairly certain that "Bound 2" isn't the first Kanye song you've heard- chances are, you've heard at least a couple, even if you never connected them to the artist. He's been an international superstar for about a decade at this point and his songs have been used all over the place.

I was kinda hoping it would be all stock footage after the horses kicked in. Maybe you could have like stock footage Kanye riding stock footage of a motorcycle while riding stock footage from For The Love of Ray J

Did they intentionally try to make Kim look as much like Beyonce as possible? I think Ye wishes he had JayZ's girl (but he'd rather get some head).

It looks and sounds as though Kanye is wasted at Asian karaoke on a Tuesday night, and he's the last guy there and the staff can't get rid of him while he humps one of the speakers.

Jam2 posted:I still think the video is poo poo. Well I mean, yeah. I could've taken these responses, put them at the beginning of my original post verbatim and still have come to the same conclusion. tbf I think my original post came off as snobby but my disagreement is that I think the video is so impeccably hokey that I can't imagine it being part a deliberately provocative campaign for a deliberately provocative album by sheer accident. I trust Kanye and his collaborators to realize on some level that they just shot a Marlboro commercial; or this is another example of ego outracing ability. Neither of these arguments are a stretch. I'm not trying to say Kanye is a subversive genius. It means he has a basic comprehension of cheese. At the least, are we gonna pretend that cowboy Kanye riding through Arizona with Kim on the dash isn't antagonistic? Well, it kinda worked, people hate it. And it is incredible, how many people had their jaws down when they saw it? Edit: ok, I'm actually more back and forth on this, cause if there's a person incapable of irony it's probably Kanye, but I've written myself into a corner now. If it's unabashedly earnest I still kinda think the video is incredible. Alpher N Omeger fucked around with this message at 10:37 on Nov 21, 2013 |
