This is the Bomb!! Poetic and creative with an Africa Voodoo Twist. The video is about the power of love. As if it is so strong, it is creating an African Love spell that he has to come against, before it takes him over ” I cant love myself and still love you too”. So he is putting the love on lock down by goin to war against the two women (there is power in numbers
). His army wins and she loses the control of him staying in a relationship that doesn’t work. I love this Video! Do your thang Kanye and my black people…come out the box!

Hey,
Well for all the people hatin’ on dis song I feel wat yall sayin’ bout da voice thang. But I think kanye sang it in order ta potray more emotion than cockiness. But other than da voice for erryone confused bout da meanin and especially da video. Let me clarify. Now this is not info I got directly from Kanye so you can choose to ignore. However from studyin literature from da harlem renaissance i came to a conclusion. Da song is in reference to Africa and his roots and heritage there. Not a girl like most think. He sings about Africa as a woman that he has wronged and denied and kept low key. He does this because as an american he is sayin he is encouraged to assimilate and not keep strong connection wit his roots. So in order ta make some paper he has kept his African pride low key in da mainstream. This song is about that fact. You can see dis in da video because he is in an all white house representin America. He looks out da window seein a tribe run by freely however he is trapped inside. Also another point in the video Kanye is sittin in da corner and there is an African chief standin right next ta him and Kanye can’t bring hiself ta look at him. With this in mind watch da video and listen to da lyrics and see if you agree or have a different opinion just remember alot of hip hop is poetry and real poetry requires you disect the writing in order to understand. Hip-Hop dat requires you to study da lyrics is real.

Man, I’m a BIG Kanye fan however when I heard this at the VMAs I was like WTF? I got used to that version for a min and started to kinda like it…then THIS FOOLISHNESS? F*ck wrong w/Kanye? Ironically, he got arrested for the photographer thing in the airport….publicity stunt you think? Ima still buy his album when it comes out tho cuz the man is a GENIUS (yes, I’m still on his dick like everyone else will be AGAIN).

P.S. To yall youngNs posting on this board….get your music facts straight! T-Pain did not invent the voice box, he just brought it back and made it his trademark. Google Zapp and Roger!

This is his wackest join’ ever and thatz rare comin’ from one of the greatest hip-hop artist to be on the mic. The state of hip-hop is on life support and a lot of these artists sound desperate to be the ones to carry the music on their backs. I’m also tired of all these rappers claimin’ to be rockstars. Do they even understand that meaning? Jus’ because you hot, it doesn’t certify you as such.I mean, You don’t hear fuckin’ Bono sayin’ I’m a rapstar jus’ because they’re world reknown. C’mon now peoplez..get this music shit 2getha.

This song has the potential to be hot. Hear me out.

Let’s say your boy adds 808 drums to the beat and then he adds claps, maybe even a few snares into the mix. Now throw a 2 verses from Jay-Z or Lil Wayne, then he throws one of his own verses into the mix. Now you have a 3 verse song and he can use what he already has in this song as a hook. I think this song might be nice. Just think about it.

he said this isnt the finished version so you can bet he is gonna make it hot. Ah some guy was talking about he dress like a rockstar? thats the new style of hiphop and if he was dressing like a rockstar he would be wearing fukin latex and shit with his skin showing. i think this song is catchy, their really isn’t no beat since he clapped the whole thing through singing it Acappela. calm down if you really thing hiphop is gonna die then just start listen to some punk bitch.

I’m not jumping on that hip hop is dead bandwagon shit but I’ll be strait up, this song is bad. obviously Kanya ain’t a singer cuz the melody is boring and repetitive as shit. elementary. I was impressed for about .30 sec cuz I like people taking music in different directions, like he did with ‘stronger’ n can’t tell me nothing’. but this is booring. fail

WTF!! i saw kanye’s performance of love lockdown at the MTV awards and i must say that he cant fuckin sing, maybe im bein a lil too harsh and it was a live performance but to be honset that nigga cant sing.

when i heard the song i realised just how bad the state of hip hop has become…ppl this is wat we hav come to, more and more rappers seem to be singing nd this is not how its supposed to be. show i bet this album is gonna do real bad if kanye’s other singles are as bad as this.

on anotha note did u cats see Weezys performance wit Kid Rock at the MTV awards??? dont get me wrong i got luv for da hommie but tha nigga dresses more lyk a rockstar than anything else. shit if i didnt hear his voice i wudnt hav known it was him…wat happnd to a simple throwbacks, durags, or just a fresh white tee???? shits fucked up fo real…..
