Kanye West
Album : 808s & Heartbreak
Release Date : November 25, 2008

review :
The ten-time Grammy Award winning musical phenomenon, rapper, producer, and now singer embarks on a new musical journey taking his audience to new heights. Kanye West returns with his fourth album 808s & HEARTBREAK. His highly anticipated new album set for release on November 25th, featuring the heart pounding first single LOVE LOCKDOWN which premiered live for the first time on the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards. LOVE LOCKDOWN quickly exploded at radio with the video premiering nationwide on the Ellen Degeneres show. "Heartless," the second single, is next up to hit the airwaves further amplifying the story behind the musical direction for 808s & HEARTBREAK.

The album was originally rumored to be entitled A Good Ass Job by the magazine Billboard, though it was later revealed by online hip-hop and fashion magazine Urban Lookout that the correct name would be 808s & Heartbreak. This was later confirmed through the rapper’s online blog.

Kanye West says his 808s and Heartbreak album is done, and he’s not going to wait until right before Christmas to release it, as was originally planned. He announced Wednesday (September 24), via his KanyeUniverseCity.com blog, that his fourth LP is coming out a lot sooner.

"I changed my album to November something, ’cause I finished the album and I felt like it," he posted under a picture of him and Young Jeezy in the studio. "I want y’all to hear it as soon as possible."
