Kanye Abandons Good Ass Job Title
July 28, 2010 @ 2:20 PM EDT
News
It’s official: Mr. West has changed the title of his upcoming album. Now how do we know this? Well the man himself joined Twitter today and told us. Heaven help us all.
LMAO ALL CAPS RANTS ON TWITTER….SURVEY SAYS “YES”! 🙂
WONDER HOW HIS EX-PEEN WARMER FEELS ABOUT HIM BEING ON TWITTER LOL
Good, retail stores wernt gonna support and album with “Ass” in the title
I guess thats a hard title to have people and companies market huh. He shoulda leaned from Jadakiss still lookin forward to it tho.
I didnt think the title fit his new darker theme of the music….im thinking its gonna be like a foreign word or phrase
i liked the title but def didnt think it a smart business decision
Y does this guy have on a snakeskin jacket? Where they do that @?
THANK GOD!!!!! Wasnt feeling the name AT ALL. Cant wait for the album.
HE BETTER COME THAT HEAT ON SPET 14, BECAUSE EM IS RUNNING THE RAP GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can’t wait for the first @kanyewest Twitter rant!
Prob a smart decision. Although Kanye’s still not in my top 20 lyricist, I’m beginning to respect him a lot more. That Swift shit was fucked up!!! I hope to all goodness that she flops on her next album
Looks forward to Kanye’s first Twitter rant. Twitter will never be the same..
@Thank Me Hater
Damn so u got 20 people who u feel are better lyricist then Kanye. I gotta see that list one day,
That’s a smart man right there!
Besides “Power” doesn’t go along with the title GAJ
@Fuck Ya Life LOL Yeah and I think it’s a legitimate list too. Nothing against Kanye I just don’t feel his delivery a lot of the time. His subject matter is pretty dope though…..sometimes
Somebody at Def Jam is going to get fired for not buying enough Officer Ricky CD’s 🙂
Thank GOD, I was not feeling that title at all… If he wants it to fit with the whole College Dropout/Late Registration/Graduation Theme, then he should call it ‘Alumni’ or something along those lines.
It shall be called Easter: The Resurrection of KanYesus
it should be called “Back for my masters” haha
@Fuck Ya Life and this is in no particular order at all and strictly opinion but….
1. Jay Z
2. Black Thought
3. Talib
4. Mos Def
5. Eminme
6. Jadakiss
7. T.I.
8.-11. All of Slaughterhouse
12. Phonte
13. Method Man
14. Lil Wayne
15. Lupe
16. Andre 3000
17. Big Boi
18. Nas
19. Common
20. Ludacris
DRAKE IS WACK. YE IS THE BEST EMO RAPPER. POWER DISAPPOINTED ME. HOPEFULLY THE EMINEM KANYE & JAY-Z JOINT WILL BE IN THE ALBUM.

HORUS IS THE TRUTH✔
[…] Kanye West has decided to rename his upcoming studio album which was formerly named ‘Good Ass Job’. The Hip-Hop giant, who will be releasing the record on September 14th, broke the news via his brand new Twitter account earlier today. A new title for the LP has yet to be chosen. {Source} […]
I like Ye on twitter… Hopefully motherfuckers dont start shit.
I can see where you coming from on that list Thank Me Hater, and I do agree with at least 15 of those being better lyricists, but Ye makes that classic shit which some of them don’t.
Y whenever a hiphop album.has ass in it they have to change the name? Do movies follow a different rule, cause im sure i went to see a movie named kickass
My top 20 Emcee List is:
1. Canibus
2. Nas
3. Black Thought
4. Jay-z
5. Eminem
6. Kanye
7. BIG
8. Tupac
9. Phonte
10. Rza
11. Lil Wayne
12. Lupe
13. Andre 3000
14. Ludacris
15. Jadakiss
16. Aesop Rock
17. Big Boi
18. Big L
19. Mos Def
20. Drake ( lol yes currently)
Lmaoo T.I a lyricist that nigga is weak as fuck
@ Fuck Ya Life
Not trying to hate on Kanye at all, hes actually in my top 10 all-around artists DOA, but people do overrate him as a lyricist. I was just puttin together a list that ended up looking pretty similar to TMH’s, but in no particular order:
Mos Def, Jay Z, Talib Kweli, Nas, Lupe Fiasco, Andre 3000, Rakim, Common, Chamillionaire, Black Thought, Crooked I, Joell Ortiz, Tech N9ne, Eminem, Canibus, J. Cole, AZ, Jay Electronica, Lil Wayne and Jadakiss
U may notice I only put 2 members of Slaughterhouse; u can insert your own favorite 2, but Im sure nearly everyone can agree that at least 2 members of SH outspit Kanye. I also left all members of Wu-Tang off the list, so if u disagree with anyobdy that was included, u can substitute almost any of them.
Chamillionaire really?
Is that a real question?
@Thank Me Hater & Kid Rapp
Those are both pretty good list so I cant hate on either one cuz my list would probably look a lil like both. But I still think Kanye is in the top 20 somewhere in there tho.
@Haters/Stans
Last time I checked Chamilionaire was garbage? No offense
@Haters/Stans
I agree any member of Wu could be on there my personal favorite is Meth. Only person on ur list I would trade for Kanye is maybe Chamillionaire but I’m a fan of his also so I’m thinkin that shit through while I put my list together.
@Kid Rapp
Youve obviously never heard a Chamillionaire album. It might not exactly be my style, but u gotta recognize talent when it smacks u in the face. But again, if u dont like it, replace him with anybody from Wu-Tang. Personally I think its pretty ridiculous that u put Drake on a top-20 lyricists list, but thats just a difference in opinion.
@KIDRAPPP
YOUR LIST IS WACK. SO IN YOUR OPINION DRAKE IS A BETTER LYRICIST THAN RAKIM, WHO IS NOT EVEN ON YOUR LIST????? BIIIIIIIITCH GTOH!
SIDEBAR: YOU THINK KANYE IS BETTER THAN BIGGIE??? AND 2PAC??? LFMAO? YOU ARE A JOKE SLUT!!!!!!
★★★
HORUS IS THE TRUTH✔
so i guess from Kanye’s new post he’s naming the album “GOOD JOB” instead:
Yo @jimmyfallon you been killin the suits man Good Job, thats the new movement
LOL @ faggot Horus, lets see your list them man…. Its easy to criticize when you Hide your face… And my list is Emcees, and currently I’m ranking him last on MY personal list, whats so wrong with that?
@Haters/Stans
I bought his first album…. which I didn’t find any better than a nelly album IMO. Didn’t he fall off after that? I don’t remember any more than 2 albums from him… SOund of revenge and Ulitimate victory(which failed IMO)
Just my opinion though. I appreciate your list as a whole. But then again, maybe its because I don’t usually see Him on someones “list’, but then I placed drake at the end of mine lol. I will give his album another listen out of respects, since your tastes prove valid.
So I’m guessing eminem’s album will be number 1 until September 14 when kanye’s album comes out, Hip Hop is winning this year
i’m glad he changed the title. i was beginning to think it wouldn’t fit the content.
and that’s not suggesting it wouldn’t be a good ass job, cuz i think it’s gonna be a phenomenal album. but the title just… iono… i think ye will be addressing some very personal and relevant shit. for that reason, the album title needs more meaning, maybe.
its like j.cole and cole world. <—-corny.

Anyone who ranks Canibus at #1 of their best emcees doesn’t know shit about hip-hop, for real though. Don’t say shit just to say shit.
