Kanye West – Runaway: The 20 Minute Version Live (Video)

At Poland’s Coke Live Music Festival, Kanye channeled his inner 808s & Heartbreak and extended the original, nine-minute long version of his My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy single by another 11 minutes. Props to HCO.

  4. ^^Might be a little too late for that right? You could go back 7 years ago and try to stop College Dropout from dropping. Besides, if you’re talking about old Ye production, those were just looped soul samples. And new Ye production, he has a lot of help on to make it sound the way it does. Kanye as a Rapper + Producer > Kanye as a Producer.

  5. It’s definitely worth pointing out that Kanye’s lyrics weren’t bad on College Dropout, and had some moments on Late Registration. But since then, his lyrics have steadily gone way downhill. I typically stop listening to a Ye song because I can’t bring myself to sit through the ignorant, arrogant bullshit that’s coming out of his mouth. It’s pretty rare that I turn it off because I’m not feeling the beat.

    Producer Ye >>>>> Rapper Ye

  6. My favorite Kanye verse is on Nas track “Still Dreaming”.
    That said I’m in agreement with the rest of ya’ll. Kanye’s bitch made for the most part, especially Kanye in the last 3 years.

  8. favorite Yeezy verse has to be from Never Let Me Down. Actually thats just one of my top 5 favorite songs of all time.

    Yeezy on Two Words from CD was dope too.

  9. Gorgeous on MBDTF trumps a lot of verses last year, When he wants to rap…he raps EFF outta here with the hate, No one can eff wit him creatively, sure other rappers can rap better than him but they cant make a album better than him

  11. @the realest

    That’s exactly what it is. Niggas is so simple. Ignore the overall sound and just focus on lyrics. Smh.

  13. Cant deny ye’s creativity. Definately one of the best producers, for me hes up there with premo, 9th wonder, and No ID, and comes out with great beats. Not one of the best rappers ever but still top 10 material, but like most other rappers hes comes out with beast tracks, and sometimes bad ones, but still IMO hes never put out a bad album or even an average one, they all amazing ( 808′s wasnt the best, toooo much autotune, but production was great on that one). I thinnk its sickkk that every live preformance of runaway is different and keeep em coming yeezy
