Kanye West f. Adam Levine "Heard 'Em Say"

[allow that]

I could care less if Kanye has an ego. It's actually about 14% smaller than 50 Cent's ego, but Kanye's music is about 2,817% better.

[How Do You Do?]

Just out curiousity, how did you arrive at those figures?

[clem]

Is it just me, or does Kanye sound orgasmic in the beginning?

[Love Plastic Love]

This song sucks.

[MinusName]

This song sucks.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so, I think he sucks period.

[JamaicaFunk²]

i dont think he sucks period.

but i'm not sure why this is a single choice at all. :/

i like Touch The Sky more for the 2nd (3rd) single!

Does anyone predict this is to be another Gold Digger? It skyrockets 100-67 this week on the Hot 100. It's also getting alot of airplay on my rhythmic-leaning CHR/Pop station. I like it, but I'd rather see Mariah's DFAU reach No. 1. ;)

[HER MINAJesty]

This song is hot in a mellow vibe way...I didnt really like it at first, thought it was boring, but the more you hear it, its good...Adam Levine's vocals are somewhat whiney, but meh...

I like the very simple piano beat...its so simple that makes it good

Im sure this will go at least Top 10 on Pop, especially coming off Gold Digger and with Adam Levine on it

Gold Digger so doesn't deserve to be a #1 Pop song, though...IMO

I heard this last night on the radio the first time and it just doesn't sound like a song that would be played a 100 times a week. But I do like it better than the piece of crap "Gold Digger," but I'm still not a fan of this song.

[No Brake$]

This song is starting to really take off. I agree, this song has no right to be played more than 75-100 times a week. However, I do feel that it will have decent run into the teens, lasting to about February. I expect a similar run to Maroon 5's Sunday Morning. It's a very old-fashioned sounding song. I will say this though, I think Kanye has a sound that won't fade with time. His songs will always be around for a while.

[GiggaWho]

They were playing this on my local station last night. But, apparently, they don't have the official radio single yet because it still had that "Mr. West, Mr. West.." thing from the album on the front of it.

[MinusName]

This song is growing on me, I like it better than "Gold Digger" but still not as good as the singles off of his last album. I'm going to predict a peak of #7.

[The Black Bird]

This song is just OK.

But don't forget this is the follow-up of a huge hit, so I'm sure it'll be at the very least a moderate hit for Kanye.

[Pink Champagne Ricochet]

This sounds kinda boring on the album, but I really like it on the radio.

[Adonis the DemiGod!]

This song is good but there are better single worthy songs on the album.

[reception]

I think it sounds cheesy.

[The Rebirth Of ffej]

I like this now. At first his social commentary annoyed me, but this song is good. I can't believe it's doing good though.

Some may question Kanye West's choice of this midtempo groove to follow his uptempo No. 1 "Gold Digger," but he should not worry about it slowing his climb to the top. For this introspective tune, he borrows the talents of Maroon5's Adam Levine. Melancholy piano backs Levine's understated crooning as West rambles on about the intricacies of life. Though he fails to impress lyrically, as usual, West's production proves that he is at his best when behind the boards. Although Bush supporters likely will not rush out to buy this message-laden single, West's talent is clearly undeniable. —Ivory M. Jones

This seems to be taking off kind of slowly. I'd expect a Kanye single that went to radio a few weeks ago to be taking off with a +700 bullet or something.

[britrocks16]

I agree. This seems to be taking off really really slow and not just at Pop but at Rhythmic and Urban aswell. Coming off of something as huge as GD this should already be close to the Top 20 on the hot 100!

[bubblepop15]

I really like this song

I love Adam Levine's chorus and the piano.

It sounds really good.

[GiggaWho]

I think the problem is two fold. One, Gold Digger is still pulling in almost 9000 spins and isn't dropping fast. Two, Heard 'Em Say isn't nearly as catchy.

[bubblepop15]

Wow, really don't like the black and white animated video they just premiered on TRL.

Have they premiered the other music clip anywhere?

I really like the song.

[The Rebirth Of ffej]

Yeah, taht video sucked. BIG TIME.

[MusicJunkie]

Holy crap, what's going on with this song?! I don't want it to flop. :'(

[josh1414]

The video is horrendous. They should've made a better video for such a mediocre song.

[reception]

It was the sure shot on Rick Dees this week.

[Hook]

I don't know why they're waiting to debut the other video for this song, the Macy's one. It doesn't make much sense.

[[upsilon]™]

I'm confused about this song. Sometimes I really like it, but then, other times, I just think it's okay. It hasn't passed the #30 mark on my chart yet and as of this week, it's a dropper. ???
