*G.O.O.D. Fridays* Monster - Kanye West feat. Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Nikki Minaj & Bon Iver

*Update* 'Ye just put it out there that he's posting musical changes to this and putting it out again later today. We'' get that up as soon it he does.

You might think I'm totally, utterly corny for saying so but I don't think this is all that ill lyrically. Production-wise, eventish-wise, it really is a huge number but no one's really saying anything special. Nikki has a stand-out verse at the end but both Ye & Jay just fall flat in my opinion. We've heard the same sentiments over and over again from them. You can tell Ross' 4-bar opening lines are dated and the mix is just weak. All in all, I was pretty disappointed. Good thing it isn't the final version.

I've already heard from a few trusted sources that this is NOT a good representation of what's to come and Kanye is barely scraping the plate. He put some crazy news out yesterday announcing that him and Hov are releasing a 5-song EP called, "Watch The Throne" any day now. No more information is available right now.
