Kanye's new music: FB you hear it FIRST!

Since Kanye dropped his first album , The College Dropout in 2004, I think its safe to say he caught everyones attention. It was shortly after the release that he came to my University and killed the stage at our Fallfest, the concert held on the first day of classes. He did his thing and for months his music was blasting out of dorm rooms, houses and cars all over town.

After that, I listened to a few tracks here an there but I never really copped an album or had any interest in seeing him live again. 

Kanye is currently building anticipation within the fans and critics about his new album Good Ass Job, keeping details to almost nada. 

The people at Facebook in California got a sneak peak, "Kanye Unpugged," exclusive of some of his new music.


Kanye jumps up on the table in the front of a conference room and starts to spit some new tracks. I am interested to see if any of this actually ends up on the album!

He explains that this is just something funny to get the room started and then begins:



He leads into this one by saying it took him 33 years to write it and therefore means a lot to him, Momma's Boyfriend:



This is a great track! Agree or disagree it is a true, heartfelt story that he just shared with a room full of strangers and eventually, the entire world will hear it.

Although him on a table being held down on one end by two people was weird and I was little nervous of what I might see or hear, these tracks, well Momma's Boyfriend and what seemed a lot like a freestyle, just may get be back on Team Kanye.
