In a move that no doubt reaffirms Kanye West’s uniqueness in an increasingly ’samey’ industry, the rapper leaked his latest single ‘Heartless’ himself on his official blog last night. The track, which is the 2nd release from his hotly anticipated ‘808s & Heartbreak’ LP (due November 25th), once again sees ‘Ye employ the vocoder effect as well as both singing/raping. A great cut I must say.

I know theres a lot of people that love Kanye, i just wanna say that i was not always one of them, i was always hearing about him, but i never really listened to him, but now, i got every album and love a lot of his songs, sure i dont like the fact that a lot of people using the auto-tune, but if u can use it and still be original, i loving it, just like this track, the lyrics are what hit me, and when that happens it doesnt really matter what the rest of it like.

i second the user above. KanYe may be using the auto-tune but it works for him and it is a bit different from others who use it. the production is strong and lyrics are meaningful. . .they hit strong because its what he is going through with all that he has experience within the last year. (mother pasting away, separating with his wife, etc) emotions can be felt through music which is why we listen. i’m sure he won’t sing on every song. he should know better not to release a whole album with just singing. regardless even if it was i’m picking up the album haha!!

On his blog he states that this is the unmastered version. . .can’t wait to hear the fully mastered version.
Mr. West is rolling in new fans as well. I’ve noticed a lot of people i know who are starting to like KanYe a bit more now since Love Lockdown has hit the airwaves. When you look past his arrogance he is a very creative and talented musician. of course all the KWest fans knew that already.

I like this song, but I’m not in love with it like I am with “Love lockdown”. I look forward to his new album though.
I cannot WAIT until the HQ of “Coldest winter” drops. That song right there is nothing short of amazing. Kanye actually has a really good singing voice and he isn’t even auto tuned on it neither.
