Kanye West – The College Dropout
“Producer Kanye West’s highlight reels were stacking up exponentially when his solo debut for Roc-a-Fella was originally released in 2004, after numerous delays and a handful of suspense-building underground mixes
“The week The College Dropout came out, three singles featuring his handiwork were in the Top 20, including his own ‘Through the Wire.’ A daring way to introduce himself to the masses as an MC, the enterprising West recorded the song during his recovery from a car wreck that nearly took his life – while his jaw was wired shut.” — AllMusic.com
With jaw-dropping cameos from Jay-Z, Common, Mos Def, John Legend, and the Harlem Boys Choir, College Dropout is as explosive, provocative, and complex as rap gets. Kanye West magically sledgehammers home opinions on taboo topics over beats that are equally daring.

Product Details
The College Dropout Double LP-- For most artists who are discovered behind the mixing boards, making the transfer from producer to MC proves a daunting task. Fortunately for Kanye West, his verbal skills more than rise to the challenge of his consistently superior beats.
A sprawling concept record that tackles issues of everyday life with wisecracking humour and unexpected honesty, 'The College Dropout' confirms West's status as one of hip-hop's most refreshing voices. The leadoff single, 'Through the Wire', perfectly exemplifies West's distinct vision.
Recorded while his jaws were still wired shut after a near-fatal car accident, West hilariously reflects upon his predicament over a sped-up Chaka Khan sample. Other songs address potentially somber topics-ghetto life ('We Don't Care'), religion ('Jesus Walks'), and family turmoil ('Family Business') - yet somehow retain a truly hopeful spirit. Although 'The College Dropout' features top-notch cameos from Talib Kweli, Common, Mos Def, Freeway, Jay-Z, Ludacris, and Twista, it's clearly West's show.
