For all I know, I could be weeks late (and likely am) but I just heard the new Kanye West single and like most of his stuff it didn't really get under my skin *right away*.. But hours later I still found myself humming along in my head. Catchy as f**k. Considering it's basically a bootleg of the classic Daft Punk tune, what are people's thoughts? Is the Louis Vuitton Don back on his 'A' game, or is it a step down from his College Dropout glory?
I loved the original, and personally thought the backbeat and added elements are simply ridiculous.. Curious if others agree on that.

- Beat is SICK
- Lyrics are gay, he should cut those out
- I like the original Daft Punk song more
- Waiting for someone to come out with a Breakbeat remix of it minus said lyrics.
- Those glasses are UBER GAY.

Yep, you are haha.
Good song, but not as great as Kanye's 'Can't Tell Me Nothing' (his previous single).

Proly the most interesting thing about this tune will be the hip hop heads rocking out to a classic EDM tune without even knowing.

I thought, "Oh right, if I categorically eliminate all other people, it's just me and her. She'd like that.
"Especially you" I said.
"You are virtually the ring leader, the way I see it."
Then, I blew out the candle.

Not likey. Hip hop heads aren't idiots, and probably understand better than EDM heads the connection between each form of music.
edit: A classic EDM tune, lol..you know Daft Punk ripped it off from someone else, right? God you people are ignorant.

Wow, way to misread his words. It IS a classic EDM tune, whether Daft Punk sampled it or not. He never said it was original, he said it was classic. Stop trying to act like a smartass. It doesn't suit you.
