The album which is tentatively called Good Ass Job is being tipped to top the biggest selling rap album this year which is currently held by Lil Wayne who moved a million units of his Carter III project when it was released in June of this year.
As of yet any information on the album from Mr. West is somewhat sketchy but the first single is to be Love Lock Down which he performed accapella to at a show this weekend to give fans a little taste of what is to come.
Soul sensation Robin Thicke recently made comments against the American magazine Vibe in regards to race.
Thicke who is famed for tracks such as Lost Without You said he would never make the cover of Vibe magazine because he was white and that Vibe had in fact said they don’t put white people on the cover of the magazine.
Danyel Smith, EIC of the magazine has actually come out and said that getting a ‘Vibe cover is a huge milestone in any artists career’ yet not responding to the comments made about the racial implications implied by Thicke.
‘White people’ however who have actually graced the cover of Vibe include Gwen Stefani, Eminem and Robert De Niro.
Joel Levy the EIC of Blender magazine and his staff have literally incited what could be the biggest debate of the year by crowning Tupac Shakur the Most Over-rated Artist in Music in his October edition of Blender.
Appearing on the list is also The Grammies and UK band Pink Floyd.
Tupac Shakur has been recognized by various music aficionados as one of the best, if not the best lyricist of all time. He was shot and killed in Las Vegas on September 7th 2006.
