[Ra-San]

It looks good!

[devil_may_care]

I'm not sure 'Can't Tell Me Nothing' was co-produced by DJ Toomp... it just seems like an unlikely combination. The track samples Young Jeezy's 'I Got Money' which is produced by Toomp, maybe that's it... or maybe I'm wrong, who knows.

[Meho]

Nah, it is. Toomp said he did 3 tracks for Kanyes album, one of them being this one.

[MediumL]

dont like the first two singles all that much Stronger may grow on me. Cant Tell Me Nothing sounded laboured and boring...

[izzy2024]

Stronger's amazing IMO...I hated it the first time, but it's grown on me so much lately. Love how Kanye keeps expanding his sound when nobody thought he could.
Should probably blow up...will be loved by most, hated by just as many.

[devil_may_care]

Nah, it is. Toomp said he did 3 tracks for Kanyes album, one of them being this one.

ok, thanks

Oh, thats dope, props for the info.

Its a shame Stronger is so annoying, with no guests, only 12 tracks and 1 producer this his a chance of being a modern classic.

[izzy2024]

No "Bittersweet"?
