Then this board must be better than I thought, because Lost in the World is pretentious Pitchfork fanboy bullshiz. It's the kind of track people claim to think is brilliant in order to sound better than the people who prefer the pop songs.
So if you are huge fan of Gil Scott-Heron and you see those last two tracks as homage to a massive influence to Kanye, that makes you a "pretentious Pitchfork fanboy" who is just posturing?
Just because something is an homage does not automatically elevate its quality. Lost in the World is fine, but it pales in comparison to the rest of the album. I don't care if it was an homage to Gil Scott-Heron, Prince, Michael Jackson, John Lennon and Mozart, doesn't change a thing,

Big difference between pretentious pitchfork fanboy bullshiz and 'fine'

I think people are harsh on your posts and you're normally spot on.

Lost in the world is a good song. Whether or not its better than all of the lights, another good song, is largely inconsequential. Its amazing to me that people get so worked up about two songs that are by and large cut from the same cloth. Unless you tell me that breathe in, beathe out is the greatest kanye song ever, i'm probably not gonna lose my shit the way this board has for even suggesting lost in the world is above average. Anyway, lost is a decent kanye song. Its saving grace is that it doesnt suffer from a terrible first verse like all of the lights does, imo. Anyway, next thing.

Its 30 minutes late. People are starting to lose their patience. All of sudden they wheel a big shipping container into the middle of the stage. They pry open the front, and there's a huge egg inside. It just sits there for a minute, as the intro to all of the lights starts playing. They turn on dozens of spotlights onto the egg, and its glowing on stage like this blinding sun.
The egg starts to hatch, and out steps Kanye... and Jay Z... and Rihanna. The lights shift to reveal a live orchestra, who accompanies them as they finish the song. At least my latest weird food dream says that's what happens.

Yeah I was reading about it and its just informal probation. In other words they don't check on him or impose any restrictions and as long as he doesn't get in trouble then he's good to do whatever he wants.

At 66 years old, you’d think that Sir Elton John would be past the point of reinventing his career. However, in an interview with Rolling Stone, the crown prince of English pop revealed that he wouldn’t be afraid to explore new musical territories.
When asked about incorporating the genre into his music, John replied that, “I’d love to. I just don’t know how to do it. I do love electronica. So, for me, I’d have to work with someone who knows about it, like a Pharrell or a Kanye, who I respect tremendously. I’d love to do that. It’s just a matter of when and where and, should I do it, the mood that I’m in.”
He later re-expressed his admiration for Kanye saying, “In the studio with Kanye, when I was doing that in Honolulu, he was just on fire. It was amazing to watch. You knew you were in the presence of greatness. I knew once I heard four or five tracks from that in the studio, I knew it was going to be a motherfucker of a record.”
That’s right. The man who once made “Tiny Dancer” just called My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy a “motherfucker of a record.” In related news, old people are still the coolest.
