Kanye West Storytellers VH1



This was a really good show.. i caught most of it before i went out Saturday night and I was stuck, it made me late.. bc it was really interesting...
Me and my musical mind loves when I hear background stories to songs, and Kanye explains his inspirations to his 808s and Heartbreaks albums and explains a few of the concepts and lines throughout the cd..
His performancing were really good and he sounds damn near just like the cd when he is singing it live.. Since I already like the cd, seein him performing it was even better.. I wasnt one of the lucky ones to go to the concert, so this is prolly as close as I will get..

Even after being distracted by his hair and clothes, I was watching his actions on stage.. you can tell he is more than just a weirdo.. his is sort of like a musical genius.. I can tell that his visions everything how he wants it to look, bc everything he does is soooo far left, that a regular mind wouldnt even think of it..


When you look at the stage, or the lighting... its perfect for the show.. throughout the show, the lighting goes up and down and changes color due to the mood, and they all make since... and his dances are like a lil kid who just got rewarded with his favorite ice cream cone.. but im sure its his energy coming out with the music... sort of like when a singer makes an ugly face when they hit that high note.. Im thinkin his movements is how he feels the beats coming out..

As weird as he acts, he has a gift, and he is using... so I cant knock that.. Check your TV listings for the rerun just in case u missed it..
