original 808s and heartbreak album cover

The only exception is the song Coldest Winter dedicated to West’s late mother who died last year. It is not long since Kanye parted ways with his fiancée Alexis Phifer and judging by all this breakup has hurt the singer so bad that one song about that just could not do it for him so he devoted practically the entire new album to the topic. West provokes the audience again on 808’s & Heartbreak The point is that 808’s & Heartbreak proves to be Kanye West’s most emotional and sincere album offering melodious and soulful compositions and, as is clear from the record title, of the broken heart topic.

Nevertheless he has already three rather successful records behind and this year, right in time for Thanksgiving celebrations in the USA his fourth work 808’s & Heartbreak is released and it has quite a chance to make its creator’s dream of the best album statuette come true. As for West’s solo creative work everything is almost faultless here, too, only the artist himself is not content with everything his ambitions requiring certain awards which for some reason he does not get.

The singer Estelle is one of the recent bright examples of that - the hit American Boy was one of the most popular this summer and still is rotated on the world’s radio stations. Nowadays the name of Kanye West can be found on famous performers’ albums almost as often as the names of Timbaland and Lil Wayne as the tracks collaborated with him prove to be quite successful.
