thanks to someone from the KanyeLive forum^^^^
after queuing from 3pm, and getting three people from the barrier, it was 50000% worth it. the show kicked off with a GOOD music showcase type thing; kid cudi (awesome), consequence (joined by tony williams), some random girl and then mr hudson (played full 30 minutes). mr hudson was brilliant, held the crowd so well, even though the band were only taking up bout a 1/3 of the stage! the steel drummer/backing singer/missy elliott lookalike was amazing. Kanye is producing their new album, including the new single "There will be tears", which is a beautiful blend of Hudsons wrting/vocal talents with Kanyes production epicness.
Kanye came on bout 9ish, and was fucking amazing. The whole show/spaceship story was great! The massive screen at the back was ridiculous, as were the drummers/backing singers at the front with protective masks on! The setlist was awesome, put on was surprisingly one of the highlights, as was i wonder. and hey mama. and every other song. Kanye also did 2 megalong freestyles, one before Hey Mama (about being depressed about losing his mum/gf) and the other near the end about the press. the first one was so emotional, kanye is so fucked up/vulnerable. Think the 2nd one might be the live track on the end of 808's but not sure. the night was rounded off by estelle(!) on amaerican boy, which got the bestest crowd reacton. i love estelle haha. one of the best shows ive ever been to. 808's is leaking very fast, but im gonna wait til it comes out/a proper leak comes out. i heard the jeezy collabaration and its awesome, as is the mastered robocop. cant wait for the 24th and for kanye to return to the UK.
