LOL@”consensus panel”. . I don’t know whats funnier, the fact you guys think this is worth analyzing with a “consensus panel” (Did I mention lol?) like its Iron Man’s new element.. or the fact that you guys actually DID analyze this shit. . either way the cornball factor here is extremely high. But thanks for the lulz

Can anyone point out the differences (if there are any) between this one and the first leaked version? I’m not hearing any, but I don’t exactly have an ear for mixing and mastering music…

It’s very similar but in this version Kanye’s vocals are much higher in the mix, in the leaked version he was being drowned out by the drums and chants so it was hard to hear some of his lines. And the overall clarity of everything is much better. Their’s also an evil laugh added to the last 15 seconds of the song which fits the tone of the record perfectly for some strange reason.
