A couple of days ago, I posted a short 1 minute clip of “Heartless,” the second taste of Kanye West’s 808s and Heartbreak album (which is due late next month). The full version made its way to the internet. Talk about intentional leak of the day.Â
“Heartless” is everything “Love Lockdown” isn’t. This song leaves Kanye’s autotune satisfied, controlling the hook-laden chorus — and the verses are strickly no-studio effect zones. As I mentioned before, “Heartless” acts like beacon of hope for those who were left crestfallen when they heard “Love Lockdown” at the VMAs last September. This song implies that Kanye’s fourth album may not be as disappointing as I (and many others) anticipated it to be.Â
I should have known better than to doubt Kanye West. I mean, if there’s an artist who truly cares what his audience and fans say about its music, it’s Mr. Kanye West, or a least Mr. Kanye West’s ghostwriter. So here’s to “Heartless” and the hope of 808s and Heartbreak being more than just a smart, witty, and better sounding T-Pain record.Â

AMAZING SONG!
Kanye is a serious artist. This song is proof of that. He’s so versatile too.
this is straight crack
this is a lil better than Love Lockdown but its still not really in my taste that I listened 2 KanYe for, I can see myself listenin’ 2 it tho…
Ugh. Love Lockdown and this Heartless song I;m not feeling.
I copped Kanye’s first 3 albums but… I don’t think I’m getting this one.
Only albums I’m anticipating atm are John Legend’s Evolver and Lupe Fiasco’s LupEND.
This is so good. Very emotional. How can you guys judge something so personal?
Can’t wait for 808s & Heartbreak!!!!
We can judge it because he’s releasing it for the public to judge. If he wants to be the best, people will have to judge him that way.
So please, spare us the guilt trip.
+1
Thank you!
I don’t know if the “ghostwriter” comment is a joke, but it shows that you really don’t know anything about his craft.
