Kanye 957 - 660 Curtis

Voilà donc la fin de la première semaine fatidique et son couperet implacable. Comme annoncer précédemment ici, Kanye est le grand vainqueur avec le plus gros score depuis plus de deux ans tous styles confondus. 957'000 disques. MERDE quasi platine en 1 semaine. Curtis fait 660'000 qui est un bon score s'il n'était pas n°2. C'est autant que Jay-Z sur le Kingdom Come ou que T.I. vs T.I.P. Ca fait beaucoup de concurrents pour Fifty. Maintenant va t il réellement arrêter sa carrière comme il l'avait annoncé ? Il a déjà annulé sa tournée en europe car la grande nouvelle, c'est aussi le succès de Graduation outre atlantique. La suite risque d'être croustillante. En attendant, j'ai les mêmes goûts que Hova.

What's your favorite song on the album?
Aw, man. Okay, today? I'm pretty much consistent with ''I Wonder,'' ''Champion,'' and ''Flashing Lights.'' Those are my three records. I think ''Drunk and Hot Girls'' would be a great stadium song for him to perform — it sounds like a great time to me. I can just see one of those festivals, it's overseas somewhere and it's like 75,000 people just having a great time. And I think ''Big Brother'' is the best song he's written since ''Jesus Walks,'' as far as structure, emotion, everything.

I was going to ask you about that song — obviously it's about you. Do you think that was a fair portrayal of you?
I think it's a fair portrayal from a little brother's perspective. You know, you've got your big brother and you want to go out with him, he's like, ''Nah, get back in the house!'' Things like that, until you come of age. At Roc-A-Fella, we've always lived by tough love. Everyone knows that. It's nothing given. Everyone has to work for theirs, and that's how you make strong individuals, by not carrying them. That's how you make a Kanye West. You make him fight for his position.

On y apprend aussi que Jay-Z devait être sur Barry Bonds et que New York is still his.

Donc je vous mets le track qui va avec, celui qui fait l'actualité du clash cette semaine, le fameux remix d'I Get Money avec les trois billionaires du hip hop.
