Kanye West - The Joy (ft. Pete Rock, Jay-Z, Charlie Wilson, Curtis Mayfield & KiD CuDi)
Okay, so it's another GOOD Saturday Friday track from Kanye, this time with a sultry Curtis Mayfield sample. Ye and (I'm assuming) Pete Rock sped the first verse up for the chorus, then put it over a slowed down, minimal beat. Kanye raps about the ills of his sex life, ironically after pictures of his nether regions leaked onto the interwebs. Jay puts together a better than average verse, while CuDi and Charlie sing. I liked that Pete Rock got to close out the song with that funky riff in the background. Also, I'll be honest. The past two GOOD Fridays have been a bit boring to me. I guess a roster like this on a track can't help but pique one's interest. Doesn't hurt that the track is good...
