808s AND HEARTBREAK

Its pretty much been an year since KanYe dropped his last album; Graduation.. i think its time for him to drop his next masterpeice..
from what i hear.. the next album is called "808's and Heartbreak".. 808's refering to the Roland 808 Drum Machine.. and Heartbreak.. obviously prolly cos the niggas been thru some dramatic shit... Break up n death of his mum...

This album will feature him sining on Auto Tune.. (that lil wayne crap).. hopefully he'll make it sound better.. if u havent heard heard his latest single for the album "Love Lockdown" he clearly uses Auto tune and 808s and DAMN.. this muthafuka pulled it off.. it hit the top of the charts on iTunes today... pretty NOIIICE...


The album was originally rumored to be entitled "Good Ass Job" by Billboard Magazine, though it was later revealed by online hip-hop/fashion magazine Urban Lookout that the correct name would be 808's & Heartbreak. This was later confirmed through the rappers online blog.

The first single off the album will be "Love Lockdown", which has already been performed live and is planned for release to U.S. Top 40 radio on October 7, 2008. The official, version of the song was posted onto Kanye's blog on September 16 and is now being played by radio stations. The song was premiered at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards. Another song, "Heartless", is also being performed by Kanye at his recent concerts and, according to his blog, he is in the studio after his recent arrest, presumingly adding the finishing touches to "Heartless".

On 15th September on 106 and Park, Kanye announced that "808s & Heartbreak" will be finished in 2 weeks.
