If I was a rapper I’d get Ryan Leslie to do my whole album.
Here’s a look at how he came up with this song.

First of all, let’s recognize how significant it is that SNL even had Kanye on the show considering the fact that Kanye started the second verse of Power with “F–k SNL and the whole cast.” What he did on that SNL stage probably had Lorne Michaels glad he decided to let those lyrics flow like water under the bridge. Kanye put on a visual spectacle by using a completely white backdrop and an impressive crew of ballerinas which made for an incredible contrast to his fiery delivery in that red suit. Notice he how changed up those lyrics about SNL too. See what happens when you give peace a chance. Oh yeah. I really took it there. He also performed Runaway featuring Pusha T.
In other Kanye news, he released yet another new song in his G.O.O.D. Friday series, despite being upset about songs he didn’t intend on leaking getting out. It features Kid Cudi, Pusha T, John Legend, Lloyd Banks & Ryan Leslie.

Most in studio clips that are floating around the web these days don’t really do much for me but everytime I catch one that Ryan does (whether there staged or not) is pretty damn compelling and this one is even better with Keri up in it
