A young, black American whater?

Is he good?

This should be a new topic,

Tut, tut Tom. You can listen to his first album if you type Kanye West into google then listen to some of the audio that comes up on the first page of VIDEO/AUDIO. Loving Touch the Sky at the mo!

Yeah he is good (well it all depends on taste really does it...but I like his music :P )

If you happen to come across any songs of his, major hits of his include:

Diamonds are Forver (Yes it uses a sample from the Bond Movie theme by Shirley Bassey)
Used to love You (ft. John Legend)
Heard 'em say (ft Adam Levine - Lead singer from Maroon5)
Jesus Walks
Touch the Sky (uses a sample from Move on Up by Curtis Mayfield)
Thru the wire (recorded while his mouth was still wired shut after a bad car accident he was involved in - hence the title)

[interestingly the accident is refered to in "Touch the Sky" where he sings "I think I died in that accident, 'cause this must be heaven"]

Its not just F1 I'm a bit of an anorak about hehe... :oops:

...well it does say I have an interest in Music on my user profile! :P

It's 1:39 Sunday morning. Just got home from the bar (pub). My girlfriend is curled up on my bathroom rug in front of the toilet, and blaming it all on me. I just read three pages of posts about Eddie and Pam. My only question is: What the hell is an anorak?

I think it's worse than that, Manchild, I think it's an age thing. At 37, I think I'm the senior citizen on this board. And I don't think you're far behind. We 're not hip to the lingo anymore. It had to happen sooner or later...

And the day started with Caryn telling me I have a gray pube.

A sad, saad day this is.

Ted, an anorak is also someone who is obsessively interested in something, like a trainspotter. Probably more of a common old English term than American.
I'm sure there are a couple ofpeople here on the wrong side of 40 so you're not that old :)

Well Eddie really dropped the ball on this one, walking out on such a worthy charity. I guess the kick got too close to his nuts.
"With more of a whimper than a bang, Eddie Irvine has walked out on Soccer Aid, a fundraiser for UNICEF.....However, Irvine walked out on the show, to be broadcast by ITV, after being kicked by former Westlife crooner Bryan McFadden during 'training'....."You don't enter a horse into the Grand National with only three legs so what's the point?" was the extent of his farewell.

Presumably, the prospect of being tended to by the loving embrace of reputed beau Pamela Anderson will sufficiently console Eddie. Rumours continue to abound that the pair will make an appearance this weekend in the Monaco paddock.

She'll suck him, oops, tend him back to full health.... :wink:

Ya but doesn't Pamela Anderson have Hepatatis C?
Simon: Nils? You can close in now. Nils?
John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.

I'm amazed at the 'journalism' in that Planet F1 link. If you saw the state of his leg you would be surprised that he had managed to "walk off" at all. It looked pretty nasty... but why let that get in the way of making someone look like a twat though eh?

Knowing of Eddie's eccentricity he probably provoked the event, but I don't know enough about this particular incident. It must be embarrasing for Eddie being injured by a Westlife pussy though.

Any more info?

I didn't see the tackle but I saw the state of his ankle when he was having physio on it. It looked very nasty!
