Mama’s Boyfriend is a Doritos Super Bowl commercial.
I remember that hilarious commercial! I thought of it too when listening to the song.
Kanye is a top 5 rapper & top 3 producer… OF ALL TIME. Yea hes not the sweetest thing on earth like Taylor & Soulja Boy but his music is great. I dont know how any1 can seriously say he is mediocre and not be just hating. Those 3 teases already convinced in my mind that he is running the Grammys in Feb. Chain Heavy is Sofa King Serious & Powerful can you imagine those songs on a Kanye West beat?
despite what he did, i still like his music. 808s and heartbreak was brilliant
These are all exciting tracks. Respect the man for coming back even harder, despite all the hate that has been dumped his way. That’s what sets him apart from other “rappers”: he is resilient and uses everything that is thrown his way to fuel him to even more creative heights. Kanye spittin’ with no beat to a room with only a handful of people in it is easily more compelling than anything on the radio or BET/MTV any day of the week. And for those who took issue with the last clips use o the N-word, he is clearly using it to make a point in this song. He is saying that the random men in his mother’s life WERE n****s in the derogatory, racist sense of the word, men who were not worth her time and had nothing worthwhile to offer her, or him. If the album is half as good as these 3 tracks and “Power”, this could be a contender for album of the year. Can’t wait to hear it.
Kanye’s surprise performance at facebook was the bomb and after Kanye dined at the best restaurant in Palo Alto called Evvia.
Can’t wait for the new material. I have always loved Kanye for speaking his mind. He WAS right about the VIDEOs at the awards; I don’t like Beyonce but her video was viral and deserved to win over Swift’s (better song, not as good) video.
Keep fightin’ the power Kanye
