Kanye West, Stronger



[Chorus:]
Now, now, now, that, that that don't kill me
Can only make me stronger
I need you to hurry up now,
Cause I can't wait no longer
I know I got to be right now,
Cause I can't get much wronger
Man, I been waiting all night now,
Thats how long I been on ya
(I need ya right now)

[Verse 1:]
Let's get lost tonight
You could be my black Kate Moss tonight
Play secretary I'm the boss tonight
And you don't give a fuck what the all say right?Awesome
The Christian of Christian Dior
Damn they don't make 'em like this anymore
I ask cause I'm that sure
Do anybody make real shit anymore?
Bow in the presence of greatness
Cause right now thou has forsakeness
You should be honored by my lateness
That I would even show up to this fake shit
So go ahead, go nuts, go ape-shit
Specially in my pair a stel(?)or my bape shit
Act like you can't tell who made this new gospel
homie take six, and take this, haters

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]
I dont know if you got a man and that
If you got plans and that
If God put me in your plans and that
I'm trippin' this drink got me saying a lot
But I know that God put you in front of me
So how the hell should you front of me
It's a thousand you's, there's only one of me
I'm trippin' I'm caught up in the moment right
Cause it's Louis Vuitton Don night
So we gon' do everything the Kan like
Heard they do anything for a Klondike
Well I do anything for a blonde dike
And she'll do anything for the lime-light
And we'll do anythign when the time's right
uh, baby you're makin' it

[Chorus]

I need ya right now
I need ya right now
you know how long I been on you
Since Prince been on Apylonia
Since OJ had Ice a tona's
Don't act like I never told ya
Don't act like it (never) told ya
Don't act like it (never) told ya
Don't act like it (never) told ya
Don't act like it (never) told ya
Baby you're makin' it

[Chorus]

  50센트 신보 나온 시기랑 겹쳤던 카니예 웨스트. 지금까지의 판매량을 봐서는 카니예 웨스트의 승리; 50센트 어쩌냐, 카니예한테 지면 은퇴한다고 그랬다며ㄷㄷ 물론 하진 않겠지만.

  두 앨범 모두 들어봤는데 개인적인 취향으론 카니예 웨스트쪽에 한 표. 50센트 같은 강한 갱스터 힙합 쪽은 나 잘 적응 못하는 거 같음; 이상하지. 락은 좀 강해도 곧잘 듣겠는데, 이 쪽은 그다지...; 카니예처럼 매끄럽고 정돈된, 부드러운 느낌이 좋다. 카니예 랩 스킬이 그닥 뛰어나진 않다는 말이 있던데... 글쎄 난 랩 실력 이런 거 잘 모르니까... 그래도 다른 부분에서 재능이 있으니까 괜찮지 않나? 프로듀싱도 잘 하고, 이것 저것 자신을 꾸미는 데 능숙한 것 같다.

  카니예 이번 앨범이 전작들보다 못하다는 소리도 제법 많은데(그건 50센트 아저씨도 마찬가지), 나 전작을 들어본 적 없어서 모름...ㄱ-;; 그런가보지 뭐.

  카니예의 타이틀곡 Stronger는 Daft Punk의 Harder, better, faster, stronger를 샘플링 했다. 어쩐지 처음에 들리는 뿅뿅 사운드가 예사롭지 않더라ㅋㅋ 그렇지만 그렇게 괜찮은 곡인거 같진 않다. 다른 곡들이 더 좋음; 이 곡은 좀 무겁다고 해야할까 그런 느낌이 좀 있었다. 그래도 일단 타이틀이니까 포스팅해 보자.
