Kanye Making G.O.O.D. On His Promise
By Johnny Firecloud

Kanye West is making good on his promise to deliver one new song every week until Christmas. Toss Devil In A New Dress into your ears:
Whether you’re riding hard on Bob Lefsetz‘ immensely original “the album is dead” bandwagon and see this as support for the claim, or just find it cool that an artist is actually keeping his word on time, consistently, there’s no denying that this man is cornering the market on self-promotion. And even better – the song is actually good.
Download the track by clicking this giant goddamned picture:
While wiping his ass with Billy Corgan’s sporadic, trickling spasms of confirmation that his creative well is a dustbowl, Kanye’s keeping himself in the public eye and giving fans something to look forward to every week. And he’s bringing the fire – whether it’s on his own, as heard above, or with a what-the-fuck mix of names like Skwerl’s about to walk you through:
See that? Oh, you think our public Twitter arguments through @antiquiet are schizophrenic? We just switched voices in the middle of an actual article! Sorry about that BLOWN MIND!
So that’s just one of many MP3s Ye has dropped since the Power video painting, for those who haven’t cared enough to follow. Let’s round everything up while we’re at it, so Fernando can bitch about more rap music on here:
Posted 8/30: Runaway Love (Remix w/ Justin Bieber & Raekwon)
Just pretend the castrato is one of Diddy’s stripper/singer protegés or something. It won’t be hard. Meanwhile, Raekwon brings his best to the power player’s table.
Also posted 8/30: Monster (w/ Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Bon Iver & Nicki Minaj)
Trick or treat. Fuck The Monster Mash right in its ass. I’ve always hated that song. This is the second track off of Kanye’s forthcoming power-collaboration with Jay-Z entitled Watch The Throne.
Posted 8/19: Power (Remix w/ Swizz Beats)
To all that bitched about the King Crimson sample in the original: You’re welcome.
And there was also See Me Now (w/ Beyoncé & Charlie Wilson) posted 8/11.
Update: As of early Saturday morning, Kanye’s been getting seriously real on his Twitter account, discussing ego, Taylor Swift, the asshole he’d become and much more. The raw humanity is a bit disarming, so check it out.
