![]() "Coldest Winter is yet another awful song. This song features an awful electronic beat and really poor spoken-word style rapping from Lil Wayne. ![]() "See You In My Nightmares" is really a disappointment. "Street Lights" is a good use of Autotune and reminds me of Stevie Wonder circa 1970-1980s. This song is the complex song on the album and shows the genius that West can be. This song is the best use of Autotune I have ever seen in hip-hop. "Love Lockdown" is another standout on a so-so album. Young Jeezy's verses are crisp and creative but really just standard. Kanye's Sing-songy delivery is lame to say the least and an incredibly poor use of Autotune. This song is probably the most catchy on the album. Track#3 Heartless is probably destined to be a pop classic. "Say You Will" and "Welcome To Heartbreak" start the album on a dark and angry note that is also unfortunately a very boring one. Kanye West is at his best when he abandons traditional modern hip hop and creating shocking abrasive work. The real problem with this album is that it doesn't take enough chances. I loved this album back in 2008 but ,compared to West's subsequent albums, "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" and "Yeezus", this album is ordinary and seems designed for radio. The album is really uneven and has innovative moments and plain boring moments. Review Summary: A so-so attempt at a Concept albumĨ08s and Heartbreak was Kanye West's first real attempt at a concept album.
