After a week chock full of excitement, Kanye is still going strong, this time releasing his newest video off Graduation for "The Good Life" (feat. T-Pain). Awww, look! MTV named it as their jam of the week — must be part of that metaphoric olive branch they're extending to Kanye after he pledged to boycott the network post VMAs.
In case you somehow missed that tantrum (how?) — it was typical Kanye babyness. He is having the last laugh, though. Initial (and unofficial) numbers are projecting what you predicted correctly: Kanye will outsell 50 Cent in the first week. Did you buy any of the new music yesterday?
To see the video for "The Good Life" and hear a little more of what I think of it just read more
Hopefully this will put the moody rapper in good spirits for his Emmy performance (featuring Rainn Wilson - awesome) this Sunday. Oh, and about this video, I think it's pretty aesthetically pleasing and the song just makes me smile. Another win for Kanye. You?

2LOVE this song....best track on his CD.
3WOW OMG

6I am on team Kanye West! (even though he may be a baybee)
7I love him. I don't care what ANYBODY says!
8hvnly same here. i don't care at all, he is just so passionate about what he does.
9i loved this video. i really don't love the song or even kanye, but the video was cool.
10love him-bought his album 6:00 a.m. day it came out...SO GOOD! he may be cocky but he knows hwo to make an amazing song!
11love this guy! i agree with the last few posts!!!!
12I liked the video and the song
13But I don't really see how it's a rip-off from Justice...
i hate Kanye!
14MTV is totally kissing a$$.
15in respose to girlboy, it appears the director of Justice's D.A.N.C.E. video also directed kanye's video (http://ahotmess.wordpress.com/2007/09/11/video-kanye-west-good-life-feat...) i hardly think you can be mad at a director for copying himself, haha. and its not even copying anyway its just using the same style/technique of animating over live action. Thats how art works anyway, artists get inspired by their own past work, and the past work of other artist they look up to.

haha sorry, end of rant
anyway i love kanye and this video and this song.
16I just bought Kanye's album... it's very refreshing indeed! i will try and find all of the music clips now, because I can sooo picture them right now and have to make sure...
Not sure I will buy 50's album though... had to choose between the twos and I gotta say the teddybear won me over the weird close shot of 50's face...
