girl." Earlier in the album, the number she did on him is called "the coldest story ever told," yet he admits he still fantasizes about her. The majority of the lyrics, however, are directed at an ex who evidently did some damage in "RoboCop" alone, she gets compared to the antagonist in Misery and is called a "spoiled little L.A. When, in "Welcome to Heartbreak," he dispassionately recounts sitting alone on a flight, ahead of a laughing family, he makes first class sound like Siberia he'd swap lives with the father in an instant. In various spots across 808s & Heartbreak, the constant flutter of West's processed voice is enlivened by the disarming manner in which despair and dejection are conveyed. Not only did he go through with it, but Roc-A-Fella released the result in time for the 2008 Christmas shopping season. Remember when Kanye West threatened to make an album where he would bear his heartbroken soul, align with T-Pain, sing on every song with the then inescapable Auto-Tune effect and, less problematically, lean on the common element - the Roland TR-808 drum machine - of classics like "Make It Last Forever," "Posse on Broadway," "808," and "Bossy"? It could have been a wreck, a case of an artist working through paralyzing heartache while loose in a toy store. Purchase and download this album in a wide variety of formats depending on your needs.
