Kanye West has tapped an all-star cast for his “Touch the Sky” tour, which comes on the heels of his #1 sophomore Roc-A-Fella Records release, Late Registration. Keyshia Cole, Fantasia and rapper Common will join Kanye on the tour, which is being sponsored by Verizon. "Performing live is the reason why we make this music, spend so much time and thought and craft on it," West said. "It's never been about the critics or the album sales. It's about the fans, and I love having the opportunity to bring this music - that I've poured my heart and soul into - to them.” West has critics. The rapper came under fire in various media outlets after his recent comments that “George Bush doesn’t care about black people” on a nationally televised NBC telethon. The comments prompted a national debate on race and the President's handling of Hurricane Katrina and drew a response from First Lady Laura Bush, who branded the comments "disgusting." West also has fans. His new album Late Registration debuted at #1 last week and sold over 860,000 copies in the first week of its release, making it the biggest opening release in Def Jam’s history. West’s second single “Gold Digger” recently hit #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100, the Chicago native's first #1 single since “Slow Jamz” with fellow Chicago rapper, Twista. “I think about how audiences are going to respond to hooks and intros and certain lines when I'm in the studio recording,” West said. “Bringing these songs to the stage is the ultimate fulfillment of the creative process." The tour kicks off October 11 in Miami, Florida and winds down in Vancouver, Canada. Tour dates are below: Tuesday 11-Oct Miami, FL Convocation Center: Un. Of Miami Wed 12-Oct Tampa, FL USF: Sundome Thursday 13-Oct Gainsville, FL O'Connell Center: Un. Of FL.

Good point ted, But eminem dissin will was just stupid, Nobody knew that wasn't going to fold in with that line and em knew it too, As the article said Em respects Will, so taking a shot at him is trying prove that he's the funniest guy or something, Em's Jealous? -
Erm ted other way round mate He's winning an oscar, Then if he can win a grammy he will but if he can't lets just respect the man's carrer, What an amazing one he has, 9 albums in the bag, Duno how many movies bout 10-14 init?
-
We'll thanks Turntable, always like to bring comedy into rhymes, and i'm sure that KBF does to, Nova was pretty funny at times aswell. Good battle!
-
But he chose to act. The way you have to look at it Another 20mil for big will.

Glad someone see's it as my view. Doesn't matter if you new or old school, I admit i was just born when the ol' school came, but still doesn't mean i dont respect it, i respect all artists just by getting thier names out there, Kanye came thru as a producer now he's killin it rapping, who doesn't have respect for the man,
-
Isit in Will's and Jeff's minds to do a world tour? They would love it put they both have families and tight schedules. Well will does anyway.

Ted thats the point im trying to make Kanye west is no LL Cool J and Will Smith Aint No Kanye West. There Completely Different with 2 different styles. And its up to the people who they like best. Bassicly what this post is trying to do is make peoples minds up when it should be done by then. Doesn't matter who's albums beat who's at the end of the day all of these artists do one thing and one thing only. Make music for the fans that love it. But the fans who supposed to love it are making comparisons about them when there shouldn't be any need for it. Sorry but that's how i feel. There's albums by unsigned artists that will probably neva get heard. And they could be doper than any will smith album. Anyone's album it's just your own choice. And i respect them choices.

How can you lot say kanye doesn't have flow Kid has flow no doubt about it, He's taking over where "young hov left off", (Frentic geuss the song) K's "Hey Mama" and "Roses" are the deepest songs i've ever heard. Listen to the words he says it and the way he says it. "Hey Mama i knew i act a fool. But i promise you i'm going back to school" "I Know It's Past Visiting Hours. Put Can I Please Give Her These Flowers?" - Great start
-
why compare the 2, 2 different styles of rap, i like both albums equally
-
Yeh, i got no beef im just joking about
-
None really, Ones that made me sad is the whole bobby v album haha

Homie how many times we have to say it, We're not feeling you I didn't want to resort to hate but i have no reason for killing you You know you're the type of guy that acts fly, but gets so high I can beat you on underground on soil or even up in the sky No disregards homie we just dismantle your bombs, They were **** It's a shame that fools spit on me then run and go and quit Sick and tired of you little haters getting fired for losing to me But your blinded you see, And it's blanked out your creativity Your rhymes are getting slower, Yet mind get more faster Bow your head b!tch your looking at the lyrical master KBF said it load and clear now get your ass away from here When we have buried you we will be sure to toast a beer Your on the list of loss defeats take the treat and take a seat I'm doing this accapela fool this ain't over no stupid beat I geuss this fools wants to f*ck with me so he can be donald duck Looking for children, peodiphle, take it you just suck I don't mean to be suttle but that's all you dragged me into So you had six lines and i geuss that your just running out of things to say Think before you spray, And live to tell the story for another day Stop and drop and then turn around for a second, forget your piroties I've got all the cheese but that don't matter because u beggin please It's funny because you try and hit me with the sucker punch Quite hilarous since your a fool and your a probably punk drunk Saying messed up words while i flow these verbs, Smokin no herbs Came from a place where its not silent, so violent face to the curb Try live with that and put a place in my shoes, Telling you'll lose Destiny is yours to decide and theres nothing i can persuade u to choose From thin to thick and short to long, The battle is done Mabye the rap's just for fun, The beefs over and the wars just begun :pony:

I'm whack? Have you gone and injected yourself? Living life as a lie, Your broke and will never have wealth Tell me can you spit more than eight lines? Especailly since your whack and 4 of them rhymed You don't want to waste your lyrics, you don't have to Considering i already left you for dead, I hurt you Can't hack the meaning of loss, homie pay the cost You're new here so you'll get that i'm the rap boss Look like a cross between Brad Pitt and Orlando bloom "Boy Your Messy Clean Your Room" Here's ya broom biatch!

Dope man!

I can see it in your eyes, your future is a mystery Your smile can tell your a history, Weeping in misery Sick and tired of them di*k jokes, One on one Round 1 knock out and it's done. Not for cash but for fun Look its the first country rapper, I'll never run out of breath Even if my eyes get red and my lungs get damaged. Until my death I'll keep battling on because you have no one over your shoulder And i dont either, But that's the difference, Your not and i'm a soilder Pac' said miltary mind, This is ruthless rhyme, Drinking to much hen You can't hack it, That weed you got will get you sent to the pen It's funny that I'm peter pan and homie your the hook Got you shook, Look at you, Read the dictionary, its in a book Pick it up and then maybe you can learn one day to rip it up Cut your lip up and then i'm not saying my boys will hit you up Leave it as that beefs over, Nova to me your a wannabe hova Stay sobre and then leave your a*s to be eaten by a cobra.

Hey welcome to the board, little sumden sumden Welcome to the board, but your name is nova? Is that in the car or you trying to be hova? I'm going to rip you into peices, Blood so thick Haven't got time for you, Get off my **** Now that was okay, Nice flow but just a bit weak May be undefeated. Meet me and there goings your winning streak You was right on one thing, You are the only one Who's really so dumb, Fool I rhyme just for fun Mess with me and then you going to die slowley Don't approach me because you don't know me, homie The only thing your killing is your fans, with laughter When i have a punchline. I'll make it a little bit faster Thumbs down? I wear the crown so whats next what's so hard that yet i have to beat you so complex Fool probably never had sex.
