Kanye West looks cute even when he's wearing those cheesy plastic sunglasses from the '80s that look like venetian blinds. Perhaps if I had a pair, I could get a better grasp of this new video for "Stronger," which is a take on the song "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" by French electronica duo Daft Punk. The track will appear on Kanye's next album Graduation, due out in September.
For the robotic, synth-happy song, Kanye goes with some dystopic Japanimation-inspired visuals — complete with mysterious subtitles — and casts himself as some sort of sci-fi protagonist. I'm not really loving the song, but the video is fun to watch. Tell me what you think when you read more

Cool vid. But I wished he did more tracks that are just like his first album, College Drop Out. The singles for that albums have been some of my favorite hip hop/rap songs so far. I have yet to hear a rapper top his songs for that album.
1His rapping is awful.
2Is he flashing the international sign of "I am an A-hole?"
3I know he acts like a jerk sometimes, but I loooves me some Kanye. I just cannot dog the brother. Unlike a lot of hip-hop artists, he loves to experiment. For me, he's in the pantheon with Missy Elliot, Erykah Badu, Outkast and Pharell. Their godfather is Prince. They're all totally artistically fearless.
4I love Kanye, too mwmsjuly19. He is a big jerky, but his raps are always great, and he never spoke truer words than his assessment of GWB after the devastation of New Orleans and Mississippi gulf coast after Hurricane Katrina!!!
5As much as I don't like Kanye as a person I like his music.He comes out with some great songs.
6The song and the video is fire...I'm soooooo getting that album.
7The song and the video is fire...I'm soooooo getting that album.
8Lol Caterpillar...that's the diamond from the Roc--Roc-A-Fella. But I for one, like this song. It's the (hopefully) beginning of the return to the less hyped Kanye West we knew and loved when he first hit mainstream.
