Kanye West stopped by Hot 97 for a promotional junket today. During the interview with Angie Martinez, the rapper debuted a new unmastered song , entitled ‘See Me Now (Ft. Beyonce & Charlie Wilson)’, from his upcoming album which hits stores on September 14th. Check it out below:
This song has radio hit written all over it! If there is one thing Yeezy and Beyonce know how to do is bring swagger to a track. Wilson’s contributions do not get lost in mix either as he carries the melody and brings that extra flavour to the record. If this is released as a single Yeezy won’t have to worry about dominating the album and singles charts for the rest of the year. Power.

BEYONCE
BEYONCE
KANYE
KANYE
ON ONE TRACK. I CAN’T. I JUST CAN’T
this is me: /\/\/\/\/\/\/\__/\/\/\/\/\___________________________________________________ #dead Yass this is perfect! Nuff said. *waits for the haters*
F*** twas we miss beyond and F*** yes this a hit!
This song is the epitome of what a good collabo should be. I love it! KAnye kills it, Beyonce kills it, And Charlie Kills. What more can u ask for?
Bout time I love Kanye and Yesssss Beyonce is on the track damn I miss her!
hate all you want Ye is doin it and I need an album asap from Bee. I’m sorry but female r&b is a lil boring for me right now
Beyonce The Queen + Kanye The best rapper in the game = one hot ass record
I think I just died for real.
Trent stfu. I’m sure if it was Rihanna you wouldnt’ve said that. Even if it was Rihanna it still would’ve been a hit. nice track btw.
AAAAAAw Kanye, you have me wide open right now! Bey, I see you! Are we trying to get 8 #1’s before December! Hmmmmm…
YAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSS! Love, Love, LOVE it!
I love the mood and feel to this song. It’s energetic yet cool and laid back. Of course, Kanye killed, and my girl Bey really KILLED it. I LOVE Charlie Wilson. He does so much for the song, as he does for most songs that he appears on. He has a tone about his voice that is just so awesome. His voice is so melodic. The background vocals were on point too.
LOVES IT! Kanye all day and Queen Bey ALL DAY! 🙂
I love this song and BTW: Beyonce recorded her vocals at 5 am this morning, who does that?
BEYONCE PLEASE COME BACK FOR DOMINATION
Don’t like it. Eww…
Go Kanye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beyonce sounds nice.
*GOES INTO COMMA* OH MY FREAKIN GOD LOVE IT AMAZING SONG BEY SAID N***** YOU BETTA GET IT BEY
OMG OMG DID HE SAY I’mma let you finish but …I got Beyonce on the track” – D……………lol
NO MATTER WHAT BEYONCES BEYONCE AND W.E SHE DOES SHE GOOD AT IT . IM FEELING THIS.
sounds like a track from a mixtape in 2004.
this song is under-produced but more can you expect from a profit failing industry cause everyone downloads leaks.
its sad when big names like beyonce and kanye are subject to low budget production because of this.
we’ll always miss beyonce. but it’s sad kids these days don’t get quality like they did in the 80’s and 90’s….
can’t wait to hear the rest of kanye’s album.
i like it!!
@JJ the song not mastered yet beyonce just laid her vocals at 5am last night and kanye liked the song so much he decided to leak it as it was. Unfinished.
AHHMAAAZINGG!! I LOVE IT!<333
def getting Ye's album… can't wait til Bey drops a new album too! god, i miss her…
*shaking and crying* this has to be a dream.
I’m a huge Ye’ fan but the song was all over the place! Charlie Wilson didn’t even need to be on the song to be honest! Do not comment me bak with bullsh** it’s my opinion!!!
KNOCKIN SUPER HARD.. BEYONCE ON A TRACK WIT KANYE WEST KILLING IT IM LOVING IT I GOTTA DOWNLOAD IT ASAP… BEYONCE PUT THAT HONEY B SWAGGA ON IT HAHA YESSSS.. LOVEEEEEEE IT… I KNOW SEE HONEY B ITS LIKE SHE IS 3D…
I dont like it…beyonce doesnt song that good on this beat but w/e…im glad i dont listen to the radio
KANYE AND BEY SLAYED THIS S*** I LOOOVVVVVVEEEE IT
BEYONCE AND KANYE U KNOW IT HOT
that’s a lack of professionalism on Kanye’s behalf. bet you he didn’t get clearance from the label on this. anyways what man i aint jealous of nothin he got and angry towards anyone. i just miss well produced music…FINISHED music. where did it go?
:)))) that’s all I say… new Beyonce :)))) finally
Love it! Beyonce is back!
Sorry everyone I will be glad when Beyonce come out with her CD. Beyonce has a very very nice voice and it was truly missed. That’s right Bey come back and knock all these other bytches out the box. BELIEVE THAT!!
It’s all right. Nothing big really. She needs to be on break, she’s just blah.
RIHANNA RULES!!!!
Who is this b**** think she is? She trying to be like Rihanna now! SWAGGER JACKER!
It’s all right. Not hit material though.
oh gosh…what has this to do with rihawna!?… WTF…you call B a B*** because Kanye wanted her on a track!? seriously!? idiot!
…and..she is not releasing any new music right now… so that is a break… if kanye wanted to share this song it’s not her fault.
rihawna can’t even hold a note…so you’ll better all sit down anf shut the f*** up… she ain’t gona rule nothing… FLOP artist for real, #1s or none…she is FLOP for life
Imma have to disagree with you, she’s not on break. Being on break or hiatus is when you take a break from music period. 100%.
I’m just bored.
Maybe it will grow on me.
THIS IS WACK, When Rihanna come out with her new album she’s going to stop all over BEYAWNCE.
This is song is wack and boring.
yeah…she is working..but can we blame her for that!? it’s her thing isn’t it!? at least she is not releasing
I think it’s time she comes back from her break. She’ll be on break til 2015 if you leave it to some people!
This is an unfinished track and its already sounding good,so I have high hopes for the final version.
Bey recorded at 5 this morning. what a beast!
@Pinkpop – maybe r**** invented collaborations too, u can never tell these days.
ALL RIHO FANS GET THE F*** OFF, WHY THE F*** WOULD BEY WANT TO BE LIKE A FLOP.
RIHANNA 4 ALBUMS = 5 MIL SOLD IN THE US SHAME
BEYONCE 3 ALBUMS= 11.5 MIL SOLD IN THE US AND DON’T FORGET ALL THESE ALBUMS GO TO #1, AND NONE OF THEM SOLD 100K IN THE FIRST WEEK
NOW WHY WOULD BEY WANT TO BE LIKE A FLOP
Lawd@ the Rihanna stans. Don’t get your wig snatched b******.
y’all know I’m honest enough to tell you I like E’ms song more (that one with RiRi) but you have to admit this is really innovative… E’m got like straight hit and this is little more interesting and different than the rest… so… unless B or Ri… that song is growing
ITS AN OKAY… RADIO SINGLE.. its not MIND BLOWING but beyonces delievery is so HOOD!
like im feelin dat new side to beyonce i wna see more aah..plz stop saying rihanna as if shes the onli one who do features now? plz..
Beyonce never left so stop saying shes back shes onli gone for a like 2 months n u talk as if shes gone on holiday for 10 years.naw but beyonce stole da shine sorri.. her delievery n her RAWNESS 10/10
wow love this song and sadly i did miss beyonce her voice sounds great in the song!
RihannaQueen – Why are u bitter?This isnt Beyonce’s song. She is only a featured artist along with Charlie Wilson.
where you know from she recorded at 5 am?
No hate or shade.
But this song is okayyyyy.
It really isn’t hit material tho.
But I completely agree with this,,
“What is going on with these Beyonce
collaborations lately? First the A. Keys one
then this one. I just expect some of the
hottest sh*t when she gets on records
with other huge artist. Not saying this is trash
but it’s not what I expected
(maybe I have to give it a few more spins)….
and the A. Keys one I definitely didn’t like.”
@BADD yeah when bey’s on sumthin u expect it to be WOAH since she raises her bar so highly.
BEYONCE N CIARA SHUD DO A JOINT TOGETHA DNT Y’ALL THINK SO!
I think Keys and Kanye collabos are great… personally I was disappointed with the Justin Timberlake and Usher collabo which should have been huge
Pinkpop – Kanye seems to have claimed she did during his interview at Hot 97.
@ Trent.:
Do something on Rihanna’s new tattoo.
So that we can all laugh.
Because she supposedly spelled it wrong.
RIHANNA is a queen. Bayonne can’t really sing. I went to one of Bey’s concert and the b**** sounded loud and my ears were hurting.
THIS B**** SAY SHE ON HIATUS AND THE B**** IS RELEASING NEW MUSIC YAWN
WAIT UNTIL QUEEN RIHANNA COME BACK THAT RIHANNA REIGN WON’t LET UP
BEYAWNCE SUCKS!
WAIT CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DEAD at the other STANS are scared and this not even Beyonce song LMAO! Just wait until she drop her first single!
@RihannaQueen ur seriously saying beyonce cant sing and rihanna can. *Walks out the room, drives a few blocks *
Follow me @AmourCuirGaGa !
I guess I’m the only one who didn’t like this song… I’ve heard Kanye come harder, and Beyonce trying to act hood is a no no…
@BEYDABESS @RIHANNAQUEEN @RYAN
Y ARE YOU PRETENDING TO BEING DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND REPLYING TO UR OWN S*** #sad
I’m still laughing at Beyonce saying “My n***** is home.”
*Dies*
*faints* – ok i”m good now
AHAHAHA @ GAGATWINMARTY
RIHANNA RULES THIS B**** YA BEYAWNCE FANS SCARED AND MAD??????????
Umm i hope yall know this isnt the final version, I know the final version would be much better
@ CARMELO
100% COSIGN!
I love it !
Umm i hope yall know this isnt the final version, I know the final version would be much better this was recorded at 5 am this morning.lol
This is NOT he final version. When final Master is done it will be a hit
HOLY SHITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT I THINK I DIED! YESSS KANYE YOU ARE A MASTER AND I WILL DEF BUY YOUR ALBUM AFTER THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yessss! Its about to the Queen brought the hood out on another track!
And iwould dare dumb ass Rihanna to even try and release her single and album around the same time as Bey, she would get dominated and crush 🙂 the thought of it is just the best
I dont like it….. =/ not even being a hater
I think because it aint the final version so I will wait until the final version comes out because this sounds sooo BLAH! like come on this sounds like a TOP 20 not a number #1
This sounds a hot mess and I’m a fan of the Ye’s and I can tolerate the Gap Band. No hit, no bueno. Just an overhyped disaster.
its not mastered , but when it is it will be crrrrazy, beyonce kills at 5am
I like it
Lmao at the person who said rihanna sounds better than beyonce #SMFH
Im not even a beyonce fan but to say rihanna sound better than bey that person need Sit Down Somewhere
Don’t know why Rihanna stans are all up in this post! After they always end up gettin dragged by Queen B fans.
I LIKE IT 😀
CHECK OUT MY NEW ENTERTAINMENT SITE >>> http://WWW.FRESHURBANENT.CO.UK
Beyonce voice sounds so annoying. Sorry but this song sucks.
Beyonce did this at 5am! Wow Beyonce is THE BEST I’m sorry can’t no one see this chick!
soooooo good!!! old school!! just a fun song!! good stuff
beyonce said n+gga!!
Beyonce trying to be like Rihanna, are you serious? Beyonce has three very successful multi- platinum albums, successful tours and @ #2 on the Forbes list. Rihanna has done none of these things so how in the world is Beyonce trying to be like her…people can be so ridiculous sometimes. Another thing, just like this is not a Beyonce song, Love the way you lie and live your life was not a Rihanna song. They’re Eminem and TI songs, and what’s wrong with her doing songs with others, everyone else is doing it so why can’t Beyonce.
Beyonce saying “n*****” lfao. NOOOOOOOO! not a good look for chick. I know many lame ppl think Bey’s on Icon status but she has yet to reach there. This song is not going to help any. The next great icon will def be Jennifer Hudson. Beyonce will be remembered as one of this generations greatest artist but b**** betta be on betta s*** come next album if she ever hopes to fall in the lines of Whitney, Toni, Mariah, Mary j Blige. This song is crap. Kanye done faded. Betta look probably would’ve been to throw Nickii on the track and maybe just maybe this song would be worth another listen.
I Love This Song, Beyonce’ is the best! To all the Rihanna fans, for your info Rihanna looks up to Beyonce’. She said that she went to a Beyonce’ and it inspired her to be a singer. So to all of the Rihanna fans, if it wasn’t for Beyonce’, you probably wouldn’t have Ri Ri, so sit down! Love Kanye. But I think it would be better without Charlie Wilson, & they should have put another rapper on there like Drake or Jay-z!
It’s alright. I’m not in love with the song, but it’s ok. Oh, and on another note…
… LMAO @ Rihanna stans coming in here to make fools out of themselves as usual. &_&
rihanna stans are some of the most hateful and jealous people on here the track was good maybe he didn’t choose rihanna because she can’t sing.
I bet if it was rihanna yall would have called it a hit.
beyonce>>>>>>>>>>>>>>rihanna
LMAO @rihanna stans sying rihanna is a better singer than beyonce
once again Beyonce>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>rihanna LOL
HELL THE F*** YESS!!
I Cant Wait to Hear it. *checking it out Now 🙂
Jayz, Kanye, Beyonce >>>>> Your Favs!!!!!!!!!
This song has grown on me within the last hour. I love it. Good hearing a new song from Beyonce. And you can never go wrong with Charlie “first name” Wilson.
This song is FIYAH! Can’t wait for the album, Kanye.
Why is Rihanna being brought up? Rihanna is of no importance, she contributes nothing musically, vocally, or performance wise to the table. No one of merit has said ANYTHING about Rihanna.
You have people like Prince, Tina Turner, Diana Ross, Whitney, Mariah, Stevie Wonder, MJ, Celine and Kanye who have had nothing but praise for BEYONCE.
I Love the BEAT & The Background Vocals by Bey. I dont too much care for Bey’s verses however, atleast not over Kanye’s I feel like sadly any 3rd & 4th rate R&B Chick (Keyshia Ghetto cole, Skirri Hilson) could have did all the same but LOL, They would never kill the backing track/vocals like Bey did. I like it so far, Itll grow on me Im Sure. I also wish Bey was the one singing instead of WhatshisName(?) but The Beat & Production is Fire. DONT HURT EM BEY!!

Get what you ask for, I swear that’s yo’ ass, so
She got a big booty, but she couldn’t drop that ass low
‘Til you take yo’ last ho, and rope up all the cash flow

I admit my first watch was a Fossil

Attention to detail is so uncanny
And the whip’s on the Sprewells, it’s so un-Camry
Somebody need to put us on camera
The world of Rollies and everyone families
Stay Jordan fresh, suits and Ferrari’s
Cute, your shorty watch Barneys, we at de Bonny’s
End up at Marley, Georgi, and service from Sergio
Da Kine Lamborghini, the chain throw off the vertigo
I know the flow just hit a hellafied vertical
This the Christ year, last year was magic, thirty-two
Lyrically, can’t none of y’all murder ‘Ye
‘Cause y’all raps ain’t got no vertebrae
I got styled last June and she heard of me
I killed the fur last Paris, raised the murder rate
First of all, we all know the beats is
Like a mix between lyricsmusicvideo.b*******.com Fergie and Jesus
Imagine the direction of this immaculate conception
Every one of His Majesty’s swim parties is paegantries
Cannonball off the diving board when I am board
All my homies GD’s, but I am lord
Rap god, Greek mythology
And this life too crazy to think logically
Here’s something that you could use in analogy
My life is like a child’s illusions become reality
[Beyonce]
Now go get my throne
‘Cause I don’t wanna stop
I just go in my zone
And I’ma make it hot
‘Til it’s time to go
When it’s time to go
Where you tryna go?
You better act like you can see me now

i have to laff after reading all these comments cuz its clearly mostly homo’s comment on the song..i thought it was kanye’s song n i’m only seeing comments about beyonce did her thing like she hit the best high note or spit a hot 16..she only sing a cpl of lines n yall homo’s giving her all that shine.. IMO i think the song is just Okay..the voices didn’t blend well @ all.. i think kanye just throw beyonce on the track just because she’s beyonce.. she didn’t bring nothing to the song that any other female could’ve bring.. shyt even Cassie could’ve pull off here few lines.. i think kanye’s verse was weak..only charles unique voice make this song for what it is..homo’s sissies let’s remember this is only my opinion
Seriously, Who in the Hell is Charlie Wilson?? Why it couldnt be Bey the one singing?? Bey has verses that I dont too much care for, Her being street/Hood only works for the song Soldier, otherwise It doesnt feel genuine. I love her BG Vocals though but I wish she just had the whole Chorus & Hook & some other dude had her 2 verses. Good song though.
@ Lostonez
I only half way agree. I thought & said that too about Bey’s verses. Any singer well not Cassie lol, but a mediocre singer like Keri Hilson could have done the same that Bey did for the song so yes Bey’s name did get her own the track. But bey also contributed to the Production/BG Vocals & thats the real deal behind it & Lol @ “ONLY F*** checking for Bey”, shes the main attraction Dummy, would you have clicked on this post half as fast if it werent for Bey?? LOL Chill H**. & about the song being Just OK, we’ll just give it some time. I think Its pretty Good nothing Spectacular.
Song is ok. Good Job Kanye! #thatisall
ITS witten HIT SONG ALL OVER IT . hearing the names involved. wow
ciara is the sexiest woman alive and she has more star quality than every star alive today. she only needs a new record company. n8ggahs r trying to hate on her like they did dianna ross. dianna overcame and so will she. bey overcame and so will she.
I LOVE BEYONCE CANT WAIT FOR HER FIRST SINGLE OF HER 4TH CD…
Me likey…lots :-). I love that its nice and laid-back unlike the busy euro-centric dance junk that has been dominating the charts and airwaves.
Lyrics from Kanye song!
When you gettin’ money Kons don’t let a n**** pass go

And I’mma let you finish, but I got Beyonce on the track

This says a lot ! I’m going to keep it positive!
@ S***
I agree with you!
Charlie Wilson is a singer from the old group GAP band!
That’s all Charlie Wilson says is, “I know you see me now right now,” and he KILLS the whole song. hahahaha That’s pure freaking talent.

@Bluekid,
Absolutely. Vocal variation at its best. It takes true talent to repeat a verse and make it sound fresh each time. “That’s what it is. Black excellence, baby. This is the elite,” raps Kanye.
Kanye HAD to give the closing lines to the legendary Charlie “last name” Wilson; with a shout out to Bey. He simply had no choice.
It is nice song when hear it and we think about the song everytime.
