Besides this version being unsencored its the right one! The 30 minutes long video called runaway is actually most of the album and not just that song, 100 % worth watching, but its fair if you dont have the time, it atleast dont make sense before you have heard the whole album
That solo at the end was actually just kanyes voice being distorted to show that he dont Think People understand him or something like that. If you want to learn to like autotune i would say some songs from his album 808s and heartbreak, that was the album which made autotune popular in hiphop, and probably the one who did it Best
Pusha T is a frequent collaborator and the president of Kanye's music label G.O.O.D. Music (Getting out our dreams). This was their first released collaboration along with the GOOD Fridays releases which were songs Kanye released every friday to lead up to this album. They are super underrated, especially the songs "Good Friday," "Christian Dior Denim Flow," and "Looking for Trouble" (J Cole delivers one of his best verses on Looking for Trouble and he's considered one of the best of this generation so that should excite you). I HIGHLY recommend any of these three songs they go HARD and highlight the rnb and real hip hop side of Kanyes music.
Glad you did! Since you did this redo, I'd suggest you do a redo of The Art of Peer Pressure by Kendrick. His true version is 5x more cinematic than the version you listened to and yoo loved it.
you’re not gonna hear a hip-hop song like this, let alone most of kanye songs but this one particularly. and context also matters. this was the first song he performed AFTER the incident he had with taylor swift. check out his performance in the 2010 VMAs. the distorted sound at the end is him doing the verses/chorus again but how ‘us’ or the ‘media’ perceives it. it’s pretty much saying no matter what he says, the media will always take it with a negative perspective.. like we’re ignoring or don’t care what he’s telling us.
The piano note in the very beginning is extremely similar to the piano note that plays in the Stanley Kubricks “Eyes Wide Shut” when Tom Cruise’s character is being outed by a secret society, this entire album actually bares some resemblance to that movie some people have pointed out. “My beautiful dark twisted fantasy” as it’s about a married man trying to join a secret sex party of the rich, and the subsequent troubles. Pretty Kanye has mentioned the movie himself quite a few times too.
You didn't have to listen to the long version of this song. The 30min video mentioned in the first Runaway upload was probably the film that's a short version of the songs on "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" smashed into a single movie type film. His magnus opus is considered to be the entire album of "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" not any song alone. He makes the whole album a ride not a bunch of hits that radio will play. Enjoying all your uploads bruv 👋
@@dyver123 hmm how do i explain it, the ending was nothing special for me before and then one day when i was in a park i played the song and for some reason i LOVED the ending, from then every time i play it the ending is great, i cant really describe why it became so much better out of a sudden and in what aspect it became better, sorry..
Hey, I just discovered your channel I wanna say I really appreciate how you speak your honest thoughts on these songs, I think it really sets you apart from other react channels where I feel like they just uncritically enjoy everything. I'd also like to recommend some songs for you to react to from the rap group Outkast. They are considered to be a legendary rap group at this point and they are one of my personal favorites. I would recommend the following tracks: Da Art of Storytellin' (Pt. 1)" SpottieOttieDopaliscious Liberation Return of the 'G Very interested to see your thoughts on these if you decide to listen to them!
😂😂😂 some peopel like the begining piano part. some peopel like when kanye raps in the midle. some peopel like pusha T verse. I love the autotune part. never could describe why. i like your description "memory" so i will steal it until i can come up with my own description
okay its me again 2 year late man. ill add some lore im drunk too. but ive hit the 11min mark and kanye is doing his stevie wonder ish and ur seeing why everyone says this belongs in a museum. you just said WOAH and ur eye were lost.
It’s funny people don’t understand the ending of runaway because that’s what he’s trying to convey. His message is always unclear to others like he’s not a great communicator sometimes
im sorry im 2 years late. but youve gotta let it grow. this song is staring in the mirror. you are the ash whole. the douche. the jerk. its you. this song IS self reflection
You don't like the autotune, it's understandable, but the voice outro is the guitar solo of this song (try to imagine how the melody would sound as an electrical distorted guitar), it's funny cause you was saying 'kanye give me something' while he was doing that.
Kanye's my favourite artist and I think this song is massively overrated, so I was pleased you weren't blown away! I wouldn't be surprised if there were 50 songs he'd made that I prefer. I can see why people like it, but it does frustrates me a bit how loved it is. I wouldn't mind except they could be recommending something much better instead! It'd be like Radiohead fans running round making everyone listen to Creep But hey, people can like what they like, and I like that people like Kanye 👍 P.S I like Runaway a lot!
I agree, it's not as good as Power, Blood on the Leaves, or Saint Pablo. It's overrated as far as being his greatest song, one of the best of all time, etc. It does work as an emotional climax in the context of the album, though.
That aint autotune on the end, its a distortion, it was meant to show how people hear what kanye say
Yeah, I noticed in the editing that I said autotune lol 😂
there's autotune too, or it's made with a vocoder
its vocoder
it is definitely auto tune and heavy distorted. You can hear the voice cut around as autotune does
Vocoder
Besides this version being unsencored its the right one! The 30 minutes long video called runaway is actually most of the album and not just that song, 100 % worth watching, but its fair if you dont have the time, it atleast dont make sense before you have heard the whole album
Yea that video was so different. I remember just watching as a kid not understanding the meaning but it was beautiful

I finally did it, folks

@@chubbychuckle I´m doing the whole album at some point soon enough, so that will be included ;)

That's really interesting honestly
I've never heard any of this before, do you have any sources or additional info?
Id recommend listening to the whole album because in context you will definently apreciatte it more!
I’m not even sure it is auto tune at the end, I think it’s some form of a vocoder
as a guy named michael, it felt kinda weird when u spoke specifically to me LMAO
❤
I wish you did the uncensored versions but it’s still good
I honestly thought I did untill the first censored slur lol
a lot of people hate on it, but personally I think is a top 5 kanye song, the meaning behind it it’s beautiful and makes the song 100 better

You're just wrong lol. He absolutely needed to hear the long version of the song 😂 youre tripping
Also you are not alone eitht he ending, i felt the same before, but about 3 minths ago it just clicked for me, became much better
What do you mean? ☺

Thanks for the kind words and the recommendation!
Yoy need to watch this with the extended music video to get the full effect
I get what you said about the tension, if you listen to the whole album you would be satisfied.
😂😂😂 some peopel like the begining piano part. some peopel like when kanye raps in the midle. some peopel like pusha T verse. I love the autotune part. never could describe why. i like your description "memory" so i will steal it until i can come up with my own description
Steal away!
12:50 i never thought of it that way
that makes alot of sense woah
okay its me again 2 year late man. ill add some lore im drunk too. but ive hit the 11min mark and kanye is doing his stevie wonder ish and ur seeing why everyone says this belongs in a museum. you just said WOAH and ur eye were lost.

ur so pure. love u
Haha I appreciate it man :)
you might be onto it being a tribute to dead relationships
Your doing a great disservice by not watching the video. It makes this song soo much better you’d appreciate the art
React to "one minute" by XXXTENTACION & Kanye West
im sorry im 2 years late. but youve gotta let it grow. this song is staring in the mirror. you are the ash whole. the douche. the jerk. its you. this song IS self reflection
also u need explicit. yes he did cheat. again this song
... this song IS self-reflection

That´s a fair point - My "issue" with it was that it seemed like it was leading towards a climax which I didn´t really feel happened
eh its more of a masterpeice to the general Adience. He has more
I hate that “look atcha” chant
Kanye's my favourite artist and I think this song is massively overrated, so I was pleased you weren't blown away! I wouldn't be surprised if there were 50 songs he'd made that I prefer.
I can see why people like it, but it does frustrates me a bit how loved it is. I wouldn't mind except they could be recommending something much better instead! It'd be like Radiohead fans running round making everyone listen to Creep
But hey, people can like what they like, and I like that people like Kanye 👍
P.S I like Runaway a lot!
"It does frustrates me a bit how loved it is." Not to be that guy, but that sounds pretty pointless and stupid
@@lordkai59 lol fr. runaway is goated

Kanye isnt the goat and never will be imo he is so overrated and the goat is 2pac...
His first two albums was ok he has had the od song that's bin ok since an nah Eminem is the 🐐
