mms://66.186.0.101/allaccess/kanygold.wmaGoes for adds September 20. This song is alright, probably my 2nd favorite after "Through the Wire" but I guess that doesn't say a whole lot since I hated the follow-ups. I won't even make a prediction for this one.

This is his second worst single, beating out "The New Workout Plan" for that dishonorable title.

This is doing quite well on Urban and Rhy so I guess this should also do something here , I predict #19

It might be a hit. I can see this peaking just outside the top 20 or maybe barely making it in. I would be shocked if it went beyond that.

I'm listening to it right now. It's not too bad... JF's parts are hella annoying! My favorite verse:
[Verse 1] Cutie the bomb Met her at a beauty salon With a baby Louis Vuitton Under her underarm She said I can tell you ROC I can tell by ya charm Far as girls you got a flock I can tell by ya charm and ya arm but I'm looking for the one have you seen her My psychic told me she'll have a ass like Serena Trina, Jennifer Lopez, four kids An I gotta take all they bad ass to show-biz Ok get ya kids but then they got their friends I pulled up in the Benz, they all got up in We all went to Den and then I had to pay If you fucking with this girl then you better be payed You know why It take too much to touch her From what I heard she got a baby by Busta My best friend say she use to fuck with Usher I dont care what none of y'all say I still love her

He likes mentioning Geico in his songs.

Most irritating lyrics of the song:
She was spose to buy ya shorty TYCO with ya money She went to the doctor got lypo with ya money She walking around looking like Micheal with ya money Should of got that insured got GEICO for ya moneeey,(money, money)

Haha, I don't like Foxx's parts that much either, but they're not that annoying. And he does like mentioning Geico a lot. Maybe he admires the way they insure vehicles? I also didn't "The New Workout Plan" much either. I really like this song.
My favorite Kanye West singles: "Jesus Walks" "All Falls Down" "Gold Digger" "Through The Wire" "Diamonds" "The New Workout Plan"
I didn't count songs he was featured in. Just too much.

Jamie Foxx played Ray Charles; he isn't actually Ray Charles. I think Kanye is awesome, but this is such a mess.

I think this is such a great song! I thought Jaime's mimicry was a little tasteless at first but it's incredibly infectious.
I can totally see this being the hit "Diamonds" wasn't.

It sucks until Kanye's part starts. Then it turns into a JAM.

I wasn't impressed with this the first few times I heard it, but now it's awesome! It's just a really fun song, and I can see the line "I('m not)/ain't saying she's a gold digger" catching on into regular conversation lol.

"Diamonds" was absolutely incredible/genius.
This is weird. Maybe it'll grow on me

Jamie, ENOUGH WITH THE RAY CHARLES THING. It's getting SOOOOOOOOO annoying.
Maybe that's why his new action movie flopped.
Oh well, I'm sure there will be a Stevie Wonder biopic soon, and when they start casting for the blind black guy who plays the piano, they'll know who to call.

Does anyone think Kanye's "George Bush hates black people" comment on NBC tonight will hurt this song? I can't see it going over well with CHRs in conservative areas.
