Fiddy might be taller, but Kanye is a better dresser, sexier, better singer, smarter, politically active… and the list goes on.

You may or may not know this about me… but I love Kanye West. Like, looove. His new CD, Graduation, came out yesterday and I got it today. I’ve been listening to it for like 4 hours straight. It is SO GOOD. So far, my favorite song is Flashing Light .

Kanye and 50 cent released their CD on the same day with a bit of a competition. Kanye is going to sell more, hardcore. Kanye reaches a wider spectrum of people, he doesn’t dress like a thug, he’s super sexy, his music is good, he’s got Mos Def and T-Pain on the album… So good. Fiddy just has one sort of sound, and he doesn’t even get very good beats going on, really. But, I’m a little biased here, I’m completely in love with Kanye, and haven’t liked Fiddy since this one song that drove me CRAZY. I don’t remember the name of the song though, I’ve blocked it from my memory. Although, Fiddy did give us the like “i love you like a fat kid love cake”. Nice. That was probably his greatest contribution to society, that one line.

I like this little paragraph talking about the two styles and men:

As on his previous releases, West measures his overflowing arrogance with self-conscious dollops of doubt, humor and vulnerability. Meanwhile, Fiddy’s outsized cockiness sounds like a comfortable artist repeating himself, afraid to tinker with his winning formulas.

BWA so true. Anyway, have a listen to that track, it’s really great. The whole album is. My little brown lover at work, Dhanung, has basically made me listen to Kanye, Craig David, Usher, Akon… etc. He’s trying to take some of the white-ness out of me.

Dhanung is the short one, Harry is the tall one. I love them both.

Speaking of Mos Def, you must check out this movie trailer, it looks absolutely hilarious. That could just be because I love Jack.
