no matter what you concider Kanye's (i know its not hip hop), Nas' song is hands down better.

just sayin, if you're going to compare might as well do 2 genre's that are the same. like kanye's hey mama vs nas's dance is more compatible.

even though they're slightly different genres.. they're comparable cos its the same concept.. reminising about their mother's who had passed way..

yeah dance is better, but coldest winter is definitely the best song off 808's. easily.

kanyes song isnt about his mom

its about a girl that broke his heart. thats what i get out of it anyway.

memories made in a winter... and them making mistakes. definitely not mom material. plus a close relative dying probably wouldnt affect your ability to love someone else romantically... but a girl breaking your heart would.

CW = def the best song on 808s... i never really liked dance but i just gave it a listen and it really tugged at my heartstrings... i dont wanna get corny but i can relate, and it has that second layer to it.

I identify with CW too, but Dance is the better song.

Paranoid, Streetlights, Amazin', Tell Everybody That You Know?

maybe it is

but i dont think its a very good one then  :P

the good thing about music and all art is that its subjective... so i dont give a fuck what kanye thinks its about  ;D

IMO `Heaven should have been Dance, heaven is just a beautiful joint...


but on topic, coldest winter is very minimalist in terms of lyrics and the overall track but it`s still hauntingly effective, dance is better.

Pretty sure "Coldest Winter" is about his mom. Definitely the best joint on 808s. "Dance" is definitely better though.
