Audio: Kanye West “Robocop”

I was always told, if you don't have something good to say, don't say anything at all. So with that being said, here is the latest joint from Kanye's 808s and Heartbreak project with "Robocop." Also hitting the net over the weekend is the CDQ (supposed) version of "Coldest Winter." In all seriousness though, "Robocop" isn't that bad of a song, just not my taste….at all.

    Does Kanye even know how to rap anymore?

  3. avatar Jonelle

    Sorry, Kayne lost me here for sure. Love Lockdown was good…..wasn’t feeling whatever the unmemorable second song that leaked….and now this?! Sorry, this will be the first Kayne album I don’t pick up.

  4. avatar The zul

    Wack nonsense!!! What is he doing…

  5. avatar yikes

    yeah what happened to rapping kanye?

  6. avatar kweli1

    that’s soo bad…Kanye’s pop adventure should stop as soon as possible. where is the two words, never let me down, through the wire-kanye??? sooo bad!!!

  7. avatar CanCan123

    he really could have kept this one…

  8. avatar SDB

    The gross usage of the autotone must stop. Shit makes me want to hurl.

  9. avatar g-off

    I love kanye n it took some gettin use to but this auto tone grow on u

  10. avatar Mick Shousky

    I am so glad i didn’t buy his last album. it was weak! His worst effort and he has gotten worse evry album after his first. U must admit that. His best efort was College Dropout. I have no problem wit experimentation but that does not mean be wack as hell! This is weak and i respect Kanye’s talent but damn.

  11. avatar Possemis

    Best track so far from the 808 album!

  12. avatar KYE

    all you haters better not start praising his new album comin out this summer when he goes back to rap

  13. avatar CookieHead

    This can’t be real. Ashton is punkin’ Kanye fans right? Wheres the cameras? This is funny bad! Once you go whack, it’s hard to comeback. Just some words of wizdom for ol’ Kanye. Stop the nonsense.

  14. avatar CookieHead

    The actual robocop soundtrack is harder than this. LOL

  15. avatar xavv

    all the haters should just chill… kanye and common are both common back wit real hip hop albums nex summer. not feelin this one buut heartless and coldest winter are in heavy rotation on the ipod right now…

  16. avatar "A"

    it just gets more obnoxious. white people and bourgeois blacks will definately be bumpin his 808 and heartbreaks album like its the second comin of jesus. but damn if he dont start gettin some hate and all you apologist stop defending this shit

  17. avatar B.Sharp

    I’m sorry. This shit is wack.

  18. avatar Altament

    LOL @ all of you, because i’m positive everyone hating likes some shit thats waaaaay wacker than this…

  19. avatar number1negr0

    ok…

    someone needs to tell kanye to stop… this song is a lil annoying.

    The beats stink like garbage and the voice thingy is so overplayed. its so not kanye… and its not workin for him…

  20. avatar burkasty

    kanye – wacker than soulja boy

  21. avatar WackMusicArtist

    I’m an aspiring WACK music artist…. and this is AWESOME.

    I honestly think that with the acceptance of autotune, Kanye has found a vehicle for him to write perform actual non rap songs (assuming he’s writing his tunes too). I mean give an artist that. So, I’ll give him that. I actually like the tune a little. But again- see my last posts- this autotuning is already played out. Maybe he should’ve just taken singing lessons or just had someone else sing it. His musicality is near genius- not really consistent. I think his popularity allows him to think he can put anything out. And many times he’s right. He pushes the right envelopes many times. But I think he just opened the wrong door. Dre 3000 did it- and he arguably has singing skills. But he didn’t jump on no bandwagon. And a broad spectrum of musically inclined recognize his skill- and a broader spectrum feel it. And similarly there are haters. But Kanye is only going to touch a few zealots and a few may recognize his heartfelt intent and skill….but I think he’ll lose.

  23. avatar JR1

    Definitely not feeling this…this auto tune stuff needs to stop. Kanye what happened to rappin?

  24. avatar Dieselest Dan

    oh my fucking god, enough is enough. seriously

  25. avatar dizzles

    would the three people who buy ’808′s & heartbreak’ let the rest of know how it is? the roots might sell more copies of ‘rising down’…i’m just saying.

  26. avatar g-off

    i uno but i think its good hes tryna think outside the box most people hated on common for elertric circus but i though t it was decent thats the problem with mainstream hip hop it all sounds the same n kanye realizes that n he doesn’t wanna be ur typical main stream hip hop artist so u dont gotta hate the mans tryin somethin he noes not everyones guna like it but u cant fault him for tryin i still think its decent after it grows on u

  27. avatar K to the

    Knaye Lost with all these sh$&s, but this is the worst one yet…

  28. avatar Ye goes 808

    LOL…. seriously… think different people… he’s on some other shit for that one.. I like it…

  29. avatar K to the

    your grandmother’s love gets half a mic, yeezy. sorry.

  30. avatar Please Stop.

    okay okay, okay okay — i really do need you to stop….

  31. avatar dotSlum

    Crack…I can’t even Front.

  32. avatar river-kia

    After a few spins of this everybody’s that hatin will be sing along with this song. Funny how that happens.

  33. avatar Dee Dizzle From The LA Fizzle

    Funny as hell! This is somethin me and my girl will laugh about for months to come…awesome! Theres a robocop movie in the works! One more auto tune singing track from kanye and I’ll personally back hand lil weezy…I still like Kanye..Cant wait for The Believer with Com and the legendary No I.D…and the next Kanye Lp, take a breather ye, save it for the next real lp…seems like everyone want to sing now, i am personally gonna do a singin lp next, I will be singin with my grandma on the hook…the song will be called “fraggle rock”!! its gon be john blaze son..lmao! Good Music…

  34. avatar naaaaaaaaaaah

    oooooooooookaaaaaaaaaay okayyokayokay

    wack.

  35. avatar Ill Prophet

    oh man. I think I’m more speechless than anything. Ye is gone completely artistic and I can only appreciate his work…

    http://www.myspace.com/illprophetic

  36. avatar eazy

    the beat is hot. and i like this guitar-distortion vocal effect much better than the plain autotune. its a cool dramatic effect.
    the hook is really annoying and bubblegum though.
    the rest of the track is cool.

  37. avatar cdoakes

    I don’t think I’ll be purchasing this album. Hope he gets it all out of his system on this album.

  38. avatar Newts

    This isn’t cool- I liked the other tunes- as an experiment- not a whole Kanye auto tune lp- this is too much-

  39. avatar D.HOGG

    damn.i stood up for ye when love lockdown dropped. i believe i was justified in doing so. but this is a battle i wont be fighting. this shouldnt even be a hidden track. is he doing this intentionally??

  40. avatar D.HOGG

    he doin’ this the whole cd??? ima buy it, but DAMN!!

  41. avatar Tha Architect

    These artist always go off on some strange so-called creative tangent, experimental journey. I can’t go along for the ride on this one. I’ll wait for’em to come back. They always do.

  42. avatar Nile: The SoapBox Killer

    This song is just so full of fail! Sounds like a project somebody did just for shits and giggles and then some A&R … MY HEAVENS THIS SHIT IS SO WHACK!

  43. avatar HipHop74

    I not really feeling it but I could see it getting a lot of radio play. Would appeal to suburban teenage girls

  44. avatar black mikado

    sorry just because i respect dude don’t mean i got to punish my ears like this. this negro is not a singer. phonte could get away with this but not kanye. this ish is horrible, the lyrics r horrible too. I’m from the chi ye better get that chi swagger back!!!

  45. avatar White Flows

    Check out this brotha:
    http://www.myspace.com/cobeobeah

    I seen him open up for Murs on the 9th of October.
    Kinda of hard.

  46. avatar White Flows

    oh yea and that kokayi cat is kinda tight
    good music bra

  47. avatar 3182

    This sounds like some cheap Eurodance shit. I don’t like this at all. And to ‘A’: I’m white and i will defenitly not bumpin this album.

  48. avatar lime oner

    man you have enuff money make dope dope shit….kwit tryn to be t pain sucka ass…!!!

  49. avatar Tiger Styles

    Thats some stupid ass sht rigth there. I think Ye is mentally retarded. This must be a delayed reaction to that injury he had a long time ago when he had to have his jaw sewed shut. He needs to have it sewed shut again for this CRAP!

  50. avatar roots fan

    this is terrible….

    love lockdown and heartless are incredible songs.

    I hope coldest winter doesn’t disappoint.

  51. avatar cla

    I’ll repeat-AUTOTUNE IS NOT PUSHING ENVELOPES. it is inside a tiny little box labeled “gimmicks for kids”. Rules for gimmicks- they MIGHT work, but once exploited by 1 artist, another should wait a generation before biting.

    HOWEVER, Kanye is supremely gifted at constructing beats and writing tunes (if he actually is composing these tunes). He’s right to find an outlet for these tunes (again IF he’s writing them), but he should’ve left the singing for one who could sing. He probably could’ve started a girlie pop band and just made sure he got credit for writing the tunes. Much more respect if he did that.

  52. avatar cla

    Let me add, that I actually dig this track somewhat…sure it’s a little bubblegum…but if you stick your electronica hats on and accept that this isn’t hiphop, it’s cool (though, not exceptional). The Autotuning direction is wack, but it’s masked by the slight distortion (maybe not the final mix).

  53. avatar Achilles

    I know Kanye is talented enough but what is this? Love Lockdown is very good but…! I was excited about Kanye’s new album but not that much at this moment.

  54. avatar RadioRa

    We all get a pass every now and then. This album is probably going sell units but I bet your are going to listen to it 4 times and then the accumulation of dust begins…

    I enjoy Ye’s music but this is obviously a departure from regular music. So I say Ye’ get it out your system……………

  55. avatar jjwhorl

    is this a joke? This track – thumbs down.

  56. avatar amachiyaminah

    i dunno i am quite indifferent, but this song could grow on me…

  57. avatar nhate backwards

    i liked it up up to 30 seconds. then hated it. great concept though.

  58. avatar CookieHead

    I wish I had more hands…

    Roboflop niggas! LOL

  59. avatar Confucious30

    Bad news…I like Kanye and he should be an artist and do his thing …but uhm come on conceptually this song is boring for one….sounds like he is running out of subject matter which should not be the case. 2. Autotune…gimmick city man…it is cool to break out once in a while but a whole album….WHY!????!

  60. avatar ReallyTho?

    Damn I didnt know okayplayer had so many narrow minded folk. Dilla, 3 Stacks, Cee-Lo, Erykah Badu, MF Doom, Madlib, Common, Mos Def all took chances in their career and were better for it. If you aint a ‘Ye fan now, dont be one when he drops another classic hip hop album in a year or so.

  61. avatar areuinsane

    Jesus this is horrible..

  62. avatar dafunk

    i dont know what to say

  63. avatar julian o

    i got vomit comin’ outta my ears!! this is hoooorrrrriibbbbleee!!!

  64. avatar Dizzle84

    I hope this is some sick joke and a hip hop masterpiece is dropped instead of 808s. I’m not sold on any of these leaked ‘ye tracks. IF I buy this CD it’s to ensure I have continued the collection.

  65. avatar Roy.G.BiV

    Okay…So it took Coldest Winter a while to appease my listening ears so out of mere respect for artistic creativity and freedom I’m going to give this track a week to become friends with my ears. However Until then I will keep bumping that new John Legend and the other 3 tracks off of 808s n Heartbreak.

  66. avatar ODE FOSHO

    This song isn’t even finished and it’s crazy
    the beat is ridiculous
    Kanye is on his Prince/MJ ish
    great song

  67. avatar Peoples Rodriguez

    That version obviously wasn’t finished. Kanye mumbled half of the lines. That said, it didn’t stop folks from running with it:

  71. avatar stefinmtl

    shit is funny…i actually hated love lockdown and them other shits…AT LEAST, this one made me laugh. I bet you $10 that he the album drops and none of these tracks are even on it. Any takers?

  72. avatar noble1

    what people dont realize is that this is just an experiment for kanye… he is gettin back to that college dropout-graduation shit in another album

  73. avatar sonny deeeeeee

    stefinmlt.. i agree with you i think its a hoax just another one of those groundbreaking Kanye West moves. He is way to self concious to put himself out there like that..he cares about what the fans think. I think Lovelockdown may be on album but this is just a mess

  74. avatar kicker26

    love kanye, hate the new shit. As much as i listen to his old stuff i can’t get over how wack the new shit is. Please go back to your roots and just rap…Damn

  75. avatar GO KANYE

    I think this song is ok, and yeah it was almost finished but not completely finished now its gonna be changed completly. i think personally this is all a publicity stunt for more sales. it makes sense. i dont like his “new style” STICK TO RAPPING!
