Olivia | November 8, 2008
Ok, I will give you this one. I definitely like this version better. Much better. But Heartless? I absolutely think the original was WAY better. At first I thought they sounded too similar but now that I have listened to it over and over again... I am really disappointed with the new mix of Heartless... bad move Kanye

getgrits2 | November 8, 2008
JUST DROP THE ALBUM. And then drop the Air yeezys. And then drop the rap album in the Spring.
P.S. save Common from himself and the commercial shit pop shit he's doing.

I dont know what people are talking about...I think Robocop is fuckin' dope!
I love absolutely everything about it, I love Lovelockdown and Heartless as well, but theres something about Robocop..and I like that "Misery" movie line...dope!
Wildman94 | November 8, 2008
You should really record a version of Love Lockdown like how you performed it when you were on Ellen. That would be siiiiick!!!!!!! And this mix is really good!!!
JaiWyLl | November 8, 2008
Yo cuddi I lovveee this version way better wit the effects on the voice n the drums sound more acoustic, the whole shit is just alive
BazaKanye | November 8, 2008
BOOM!
The 808'S blew me away!
Something about it sounds way more fresher and clearer.
Now the tribal drums have kicked in. Damn! They're way fuller.
I love this one Kanye, but I'm not listening to anymore songs until the album drops.... one more listen though.
kingbun | November 8, 2008
we're just racing time....wheres the finish line....kanye stop postin ur music let me wait plz:p an drop a crs album nxt year encourage lupe to stae in the game, an feature common on some of the crs songs..help him out so he doesnt switch to bein pop it doesnt fit him
tonyvilaysack | November 8, 2008
Somehow, I believe that the mix previous to this one sounded better. In the new mix, the delay on the vocals seem distracting at times. Also, the chorus sounds anti-climatic, because the tribal drums have lost a lot of thickness. Yes, it may sound fuller, in the sense that it has more stereo presense. But the overall sound of the tribal drums is more spread and thin. Now, I know that I'm just a fan [a very big fan], but I'd just like to offer constructive criticism. In no way am I trying to be intellectual, because you have more experience with audio than I do. Anyway, good luck with your new album release. I'm very excited for 808s & Heartbreak.
parkeryoung | November 8, 2008
YES! honestly, everything about this album has seemed somewhat rushed, to the detriment of your craft. sure leaks suck for an artist, but even the official release of this track seemed under-developed and lacked the energy and fullness of it's live debut. i love your music. i just want to encourage patience - it always leads to higher quality and less regret. thanks for an improved track! Cheers,

This is good internet marketing. Keep it constant. Keep changing it. keep your fans with you on the journey. :)
m9hm | November 8, 2008
i think that this mix upgrade the song, so much, maybe in heartless is not so easy to listen the change.
Air_force_One | November 8, 2008
i like the old one better ^^ but that version is fine as well.
a_sheermist | November 8, 2008
I'm with parkeryoung..don't rush, the fans aren't going anywhere, Mr. Perfectionist.
love you much...
steve_fx | November 8, 2008
nice move, I wasn't really a big fan of the previous drum versions, but this one is way better
SNJ | November 8, 2008
Kanye!!!!! He is truly the number artist right now.
