Kanye "Mel Gibson's Jesus Christ" West

I’m always up for a new/old/unreleased Kanye West track. Props to Confusion for copping this one for me.

“Gossip Files,” which has also been known as “Dream Killers,” sounds like a track from Kanye’s College Dropout sessions. “Gossip Files” has a sick beat, for sure, but why does Kanye sound like he has a bad cold?

Bad cold aside, I am really, really digging this track. Would have fit perfectly at the end of College Dropout. I think it would have added more to the album that it would hinder it.

I miss this shit. I wonder what post-808s and Heartbreak Kanye will sound like. Should we expect a rawk album from Kanye? I hope not. [display_podcast]

Heard this before on one of the old mixtapes (Freshman Adjustment Series or Get Well Soon I think, hence all the adlibs) but yeah, classic Roc-Kanye.

BTW if you want more like this I’d reccomend getting the affore mentioned mixtapes….BADLY!

That thorn crown is so poorly photoshop’d in. What’s up RS? Can’t afford a good graphic designer?

Haha you’re right about the cold. He probably should of hit Wayne up for some medicine before he went to the studio.

Please don’t blog about Kanye, the most overrated joker on this planet. I am for sure to never read this blog again. Writing about West shows you have no taste, style or hint into what’s fashionable. You’re mainstream.
