Kanye West – “Power”

(click image to download)

It’s been long over due. A lot of people might not really like this guy on the outside. But you damn sure know EVERYONE f* with this guy on the inside. After a long announced sabbatical from the music limelight, it seems Kanye West is planning his return. I’ve heard some features with him and other artists in the interim, but this seems to be his “official” leak.

At first listen, I’m not too impressed with the lyrics or his flow. But as usual, production is a major problem. This means all producers out there better step their game up if they’ve been slacking while Kanye was taking a break. Damn, I wish I made that beat. He’s got an ability to sniff out the right sample to drive a song. That chanting chorus sample creates the feel for this track. Dope. Or could it just be the wake ‘n bake heightening my music senses? I’m going to revisit this song again later to see if I feel the same way. I’m inspired to make a beat now. I’m out. Let me know what YOU think of this song.
