#1 this year will be Gaga, next year it will be Britney. Also, Britney is not aloud to chart because she hasn't released an album in 2010. Do you really need to release a album to chart ? No. Both Alicia Keys and John Mayer are on there and neither released an album this year.

It's leaked and it's not bad. (I Like) The Way You Love and Hollywood Tonight are both pretty good. And Monster and Behind the Mask are solid too.

LMAO. To be honest, I never even knew about Jay's Roc Symbol until this thread. I was kind of aware about how iconic Taylor's heart has become these past few years . It really isn't iconic to anyone but her fans. And how is a heart symbol iconic? She isn't the first one to ever make a heart with his hands. Jay-Z has crafted his legacy off his symbol. And here I thought he crafted his legacy off his music. Silly me.

Shoulda included November 24th, 2008. Kanye, Chinese Democracy from Guns N Roses, Ludacris, and the Killers. Not to mention an EP from Coldplay and a live CD/DVD from Linkin Park.

He's performing Lost in the World for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thursday. Should be awesome.

I'm so going to the concert in Cleveland. And I'm toying with the idea of moseying up to Detroit for the Ford Field show. Would be cool to see her perform in a stadium.

The album received a perfect 10 from Pitchfork.com, the first non-reissue since 2002 to get that score. I picked up the deluxe edition, and I must say, the packaging is great. But the mastering of the album sucks. It's way too loud. And it turns out Mama's Boyfriend is not an iTunes bonus track. See Me Now is the only bonus, and it is essentially the same as the previously released version, only with a verse from Big Sean.

First official single, "Hold My Hand (ft. Akon)" is up on MichaelJackson.com It's horrifically boring and generic. So in other words its a typical Akon song.

I am impressed with KiD CuDi. He has no hit, no promotion, and he is (more than) doubling his previous first week sales. I was thinking the same thing. Good for him. It's always cool to see a fellow C-Town boy make it.

Thanks PA. Vocally, it seemed slightly off at times, but I liked the arrangement. Would have been cool to have drums kick in at the bridge though. And what did she say at the end? Did she say "what"? It made it seem like someone crashed her moment on stage again lol People were giving her a standing ovation. I think she was stunned. The performance was FANTASTIC. I need to find a 5.1 audio track so I can turn up the strings though lol

Rolling Stone gave it 5/5 stars! Their review also had one of my favorite lines ever from a review: ;D ;D

Mama's Boyfriend has been confirmed as an iTunes bonus track, with scratches from DJ Premier, as has See Me Now, though it's significantly different from the previously released version, including a new verse from Big Sean.
Oh, and this leaked. At least the clean version. IT'S INCREDIBLE. Final version of Dark Fantasy is amazing, All of the Lights and Lost in the World are legendary, and Blame Game and Hell of a Life are great.
P.S. Rolling Stone's review is out and they gave it 5 stars, a distinction they have given to fewer than 20 albums in the last 20 years, including Kanye's own Late Registration.

Speak Now is now the 5th highest selling album of the year. In two weeks. Craziness!

Final version leaked. It's utterly amazing for the first 3 minutes. Then Cudi and Fergie come in and ruin the party. Mostly Fergie.

Talk about Sophie's Choice. Probably Our Song, though Untouchable and You Belong with Me or damn close.

It comes with 5 covers. That and the previous one are the only 2 confirmed.
Rumor has it that iTunes will have multiple exclusive bonus tracks:
See Me Now (ft. Beyonce & Big Sean) Chain Heavy (ft. MIA) Momma's Boyfriend Power (Remix) Pure (ft. Mr. Hudson)
I want it to be true, cause I REALLY wanna hear Momma's Boyfriend, but we'll see.
