Kanye UniverseCity

Tuesday, October 9, 2007


I've been hearing alot of hype lately about this site called "Kanye UniverseCity". So naturally I had to take my Curious *ss over there, & Overall here's the rundown. The site is basically like every other artist fan site except with a genius twist. the theme is that of a city so to navigate you got to click on the buildings in the foreground. It has all the traditional aspects of an artist fan site like a:

Music page
Appearance page
Fan Store
Video page
Message board
Fan Club
Street Team
Press Room

The most Interesting part is that along with everything else it has a blog that is "supposed to be" written by Kanye himself. The blog is edited about five times a day and naturally chronicles kanye's public life. In addition the site design matches his most recent album release, Graduation. It has the futuristic Asian vibe to it that was in the stronger video so overall I'll give it a b+.

The Jewry Designer

Monday, October 8, 2007
Music Producer, Heavy weight Rapper, and now Jewry Designer! Yes Sir, It has been confirmed that Kanye is currently designing a Jewry collection with Takashi Murakami. No release date has yet been confirmed. But its very likely that it will be sometime in 08. Not much detail has been released about the collection but he did take time to let Woman's Wear Daily know that:
They'll be more accessible. They wont be all diamonds.

I'm looking forward to seeing what exactly he comes out with. If nothing else I expect the collection to be fly. Because..well.. that's what Kanye does.

Welcome to the Good Life

Saturday, October 6, 2007

Once again Kanye proves why he's one of the heavy hitters of hip-hop. As the third single of his junior album "Graduation", "Welcome to The Good life" featuring T-Pain is destined to be a chart topper. Personally I love this song and the video's simply the sh*t. Kanye's music is like no other artist in hip-hop right now. He brings MUSIC, you know what I mean? A lot of artist these days simply bring a tune that makes you shake ya *ss with no relevant message behind the lyrics. However, Take a sec and check this joint out and tell me there's not a message in there that you can relate too. Contrary to popular belief, Hip-Hop is not dead. Artist like Common, Kanye, Talib Kwali and countless others repeatedly prove so. This track is simply one other hit to add to list.
