Graduation, the latest effort from Kanye West is one of the most eclectic and eloquent hip-hop albums launched in some time. The recording is an electronic feast in which Kanye performs his finest work to date with expensive sounding high tech synth and needle sharp vocals. In the album he waxes lyrical on living the high life and discusses a life that’s never seen the low-income based US Projects. Graduation features a Euro-disco sound that is easy on the cussing and easy on the ears. Watch out for track 9 – Flashing Lights – it’s hypnotic. Kanye West is all grown up – stadium status… you better believe it. –Brett Dias
