Kanye West - No More Parties In L.A.

Ye seems to be yearning to leave behind the glitz and glamour of fame.

Kanye and Kendrick - it’s a pairing previously resigned to a hip-hop Sub-Reddit’s worst fanfic. Add in a sample of Drake’s uncle (no, really) Larry Graham and it’s enough to send the blogosphere loopy. There’s a real-world charm to ‘No More Parties In L.A.’ though; a continuation of that breaking down of barriers that ‘Real Friends’ began. While Kendrick’s out there taking the boastful crown - “baby, spin around and say the alphabet backwards,” he smirks when questioned whether he’s an a-list rapper - and claiming that, er, “Instagram is the best way to promote some pussy” (nope, us neither), Kanye’s happy to remain real. “Please baby, no more parties in L.A.,” he begs, presumably a bit sick of Kim’s constant Facebook event invites. “When did I become a-list, I wasn’t even on a-list,” he ponders, and between this and the lost loved ones referenced in ’Real Friends’, Ye seems to be yearning to leave behind the glitz and glamour of fame. Joke’s on him though - if ‘Swish’ is half as good as these teasers suggest, he’s only going to get closer to being the God he always claimed to be.
