Oct 25, 2015 Agree to disagree. "My friend showed me pictures of his kids, and all I could show was pictures of my cribs"
Oct 25, 2015 yeah, the song with "i had to leave before they even cut the cake, welcome to heartbreak" has "weak" verses. ok
Oct 25, 2015 you have notoriously s--- taste in music, it's common knowledge. ...why do I have to spell this out for you? bad at what?
Oct 25, 2015 I like the verses in Heartbreak. Kanye's having second thoughts of what 'the good life' actually is.
Oct 25, 2015 why am I in quotes? I don't call you "Narsh" ‘grievances’ like “He said his daughter got a brand-new sports car” aim to be ironically pitiful, but just come off as corny and melodramatic. taken in isolation, the hook is great like I said but I can't help rolling my eyes when it comes on after that first verse another problem I have is that the rhymes are overly simplistic - laughably so - and the delivery is pretty weak overall
Oct 25, 2015 how "simple" or "complex" a rhyme is dont determine how good a verse is. how well the verse suits the songs at hand, how well it fits the concept, and executes the premise, is what matters. and in that case, both verse did a great job. its meant to be minimal, almost like hes at loss for words. and i know you can try to make the "melodramatic" argument..but thats the whole point of the song -- him expressing what are "heartbreaks" to a guy like him. not for us, or anyone else. he wants kids, he doesnt have kids. he wants to be there for his family, he cant be there for his family. its that simple. and thats why it works.
Oct 25, 2015 He said his daughter got a brand new report card And all I got was a brand new sports car. Those are the lyrics by the way.
