Release Notes:
The blueprint for Kanye West's incredible work of the past few years -- served
up in an all-legit package of original tunes sampled for his own albums and
productions for other artists! The range of styles here is really amazing -- and
the set runs through old soul, pop, jazz, and R&B -- all of which is pretty
great on its own terms, but which will resonate even strongly through its
familiar sample used by Kanye! 2CD package features 11 tracks from West's own
music, plus 10 more used for his productions.
