Kanye West - Power

Kanye West's “Power” is just the type of track I expected from him.

Sonically, it's a cross between his
Graduation and Late Registration material, maybe the love child of “Can't Tell Me Nothing” and “Diamonds from Sierra Leone. Lyrically, it’s more aggressive than the two, leaning more towards his “Go Hard” verses, just “Power” is more specific. “Fuck SNL and the whole cast.”


After all of the Taylorgate drama and criticism, Kanye decided to repent and go into exile for a few months. Judging by the song's lyrical content, I think he decided there was no need to repent after all.

It seems like somewhere, he did a 180 and decided, "eff it. I am an asshole, and I am okay with that." Sure, he may not go on stage and interrupt someone again like he did
Taylor, but he's not going to make "sorry-I'm-really-a-great- person music", which I think some of us expected.

I think the little Kanye inside came in and asked, "Can I talk my shit again?"


"I just needed time alone with my own thoughts" = "I needed a second to figure out if I still wanted to be a dick." I think he’s got it all figured out now. His inexorability is an asset.


When Kanye lacks decorum, he is fearless, so is his music.

Jay-Z - Run This Town (feat. Rihanna, Kanye West)

I'm not entirely sure I'd let Jay, Rihanna, and Kanye lead me into battle, but they sure do make good music together. That's what really counts, no matter how hard they try to convince you to join them in the trenches.


"What you think I rap for/ to push a fucking Rav 4!?"
