Obviously poor quality, but The FADER has the mp3 of “Love Lockdown” up for download/streaming:
Kanye continues to be one of the most interesting artists of our generation, debuting his new single which inexplicably showcases a new found ability to sing (huh?), a verse that remains both minimalist and foreboding, and a chorus that is punctuated by tribal drumming. As a song, I have mixed feelings about but am stoked [...]
If this doesn’t excite you then there is something wrong with your ears. This beat is dope (that guitar sample is hot as hell) and the possibility of a Blueprint 3 produced by Kanye is one of the best pieces of news I’ve heard in weeks (via The FADER):

This is so wack but I hat to get it up. He can’t stop smiling I think its hilarious (via Nah Right):
I’m remiss in that I haven’t posted this video yet:
My favorite song from Graduation gets the experimental video treatment w/ audio put over clips from Wong Kar-wai’s seminal 2046:

Dude won’t stop. Kanye + Lil’ Wayne over one of my favorite movies of the past 5 years.

Another dope video from Kanye:

I’ve been waiting for this since the album came out. Easily the best song off of Graduation. Directed by Spike Jonze. So outrageous.
