The strangest things pull me in…

I am a Kanye West fan. I can admit that. He makes good music. Good enough for me to play while I clean, or take my miserable commute to work. I think more than the music I like the person, the style, the fearlessness, the fact that he was a momma’s boy (I is one), the attitude. Kanye West is a realist person. Egotistical and self centered. Any who, I’m not a fan of his new song “Love Lockdown”. Its to much on the hippy/techno/rave/trance music scene and the whole T-pain (Flying Monkey from the Wizard of Oz) voice thing. And because I didn’t like the song, I wasn’t going to buy the album. Not even “steal it”. Then I saw the album cover….




I was sold after that point. I want this picture. On my wall, BlackBerry background. Anywhere else I can show it off. Something about that heart is eerie/inviting/hypnotizing/just the hottest shit. I don’t even care if the cd sucks. I will probably like it because, I like the cover so damn much.

It always happens like this. There is always that one thing that pulls me in. Like a movie that sucks only has to have 1 funny part or line or one really attractive character and I’ll watch the movie over and over again. Prime example, The Long Kiss Goodnight, with Sam Jackson and Geena Davis. The only part of that movie I care for is the part when they are in that hella cheesy hotel room in Atlantic City and Sam Jackson says “The last time I got blowed candy bars cost a nickel”….meaningless dialogue…Then Davis responds “True love, shut the fuck up.” I was sold. That is hands down my favorite movie. Just like this will hands down be my favorite album cover.

Off to avoid the cold,



KD
