Kanye continues his conversation with MTV and explains how he came up with the backdrop for Rick Ross’ “Live Fast, Die Young” off Teflon Don.
“I listened to CDs for three days to find the ‘Live Fast Die Young’ sample, which was ‘If This World Were Mine’ flipped by the Bar-Kays. And I loved the sample so much that I played it for two days. Just over and over and over, and I thought about it and said, ‘Claps. I want handclaps to go with this sample. That’s what I need to juxtapose it and not make it just some takeoff of a ’94 hip-hop song, but to make it a 2010, 2011, 2012 futuristic version of itself.’ And I started the claps and put the ‘hey, hey, hey’ and the drums, and I just programmed it. It’s kind of important for people to realize I’m a producer also.”
I don’t think any1 has ever doubted Kanye’s skills
HE STOPPED @ 2012 CUZ THATS WHEN THE WORLD ENDS THESE ILLUMINATTI FUCKERS… THE TRACK IS ALSO CALLED LIVE FAST DIE YOUNG…………
Kanyes also a producer? Fuck, learn somethin new everyday.. Fuck outta here..
Kanye makes good music but no matter how hard he tries he is STILL an Asshole…don’t hater
hate all you want, but i love this guy.
he may be an asshole, but i find his authenticity refreshing.
Greatest artist of all time ? GTFO…..
he musta be talkin speech lesson from drake, nigga be sound extra corny in interviews now
kanye my nigga, but why does he sound mad gay in this interview?
Who thinks this nigga is gonna flop? Cmon most his albums out
@mac-attack_Shut up! Hater. Mad coz youre icon Marshall cant produce for shit. Kanye is a producer 1st. Check the catalogue, he has classics under his belt.
The only thing that I dislike about the gayfish besides his want to be in the fashion world.. Remember that song where he rapped about riding around themall in his dudes car with the system playing his beats and he thought it sounded professional? how did we go from that to gayfsih? smh! is the fact that he is all about “futuristic” and european sounds.. So fucking annoying.. Im not about to say this is america blah blah blah but the euro sound is just that.. trash.. Its for clubs and shit.. Rap never was about club bangers primarily(thank you atlanta post outkast for beginning the start of ruining rap it was something that may expand your mind teach you about the struggle and deal with hardships in the life.. Now its about being in the club.. I hate it. THe club scene is tight but Kanye you have way too much talent to be trying to turn your sound into something like that.. Please please get back to the dropout and late regristration days.. stay an asshole dont be humble i dont care.. just dont try to push fashion forward shit and futuristic music on me. Please.
Forget Kanye. Just Blaze is the man.
why ye talkn like that?
OH NO KANYE IS GAY! EMINEM IS THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE! AND I AM WHITE! BUT:
MY BEAUTIFUL DARK TWISTED FANTASY > RECOVERY
YOU CAN HATE ME NOW!
this is pretty old.. but ye is the truth
@Android.. Dont get me wrong, i enjoy alot of kanyes music.. In the booth i can embrace him but when hes tweeting or been interviewed he can be so annoyingly big headed.. Side note- at least marshall had the decency of providing his fans with new material when recovery dropped. Most of kanyes album has been floating around for months now..
I love how people get upset when ‘Ye talks above their intelligence level and doesn’t explain everything in Ebonics. Even funnier is they call it being “gay.”
@99 Problems
You can speak intelligently and not talk like that. Or do all intelligent ppl talk like that in your world
ye kanye do sound kind of fluffy but that’s because he’s still in the stereotype of a rapper. ive seen others guys speak like this in the white community but it looks so normal in that setting.
Even if Ye’s album has been floating around for awhile, you forget that he’s still doing Good Fridays until Christmas. That’s a lot of new material that he is putting out aside from his actual album. That’s not even including the album he is doing with Jay. So all of y’all complaining that most of his album is “Old” material need to quit bitching.
Co-sign @99 Problems.
You gotta know when to turn the Ebonics off. He’s portraying a safe image so more people around the world will buy his album. You guys are slow if you don’t realize that.
cosign 99 problems and GTFO.
damn, this nigga is on drugs. Look at how his leg is shaking and scratches his head.
Props to kanye for finding that sample and make it stand out, i make beats as well check my work right here http://www.myspace.com/illgilbeatz
Who cares… Ye is past his prime. Fake ass bitch.
Can someone release the whole interview?
Nice Video.!!!
