One of my grails of unreleased kanye

Some of the old demo leaks of that era sounded like it could’ve had their fingerprint on it but who knows

I always imagined it sounding like a crazy diplomatic immunity type beat with a lot of distortion

Kanye used Lauryn Hill's "The Mysteries Of Iniquity" as the hook for All Falls Down, and Hill originally sung the hook. He had several female artists singing on this, but chose the version that Syleena Johnson sings.

Bad News is Kanye's favourite song off 808s and Heartbreak.

Supernova, by Mr Hudson, was a 808s left over. The original used the synthesized piano riff at the end throughout the song (although it was sped up for Mr Hudson's version) and had The Dream (Not completely sure about this) and Kanye on the hook.

Dark Fantasy is introduced by a narrative by Nicki Minaj, in which she reworks in an English accent a poem by Roald Dahl that itself revisits the classic fairy tale Cinderella.

Rick Ross' addition to Devil In A New Dress was a last minute decision, made the day before the album needed to be handed in.

'And my grandmamma ain't the only girl calling me baby,' was the original hook for Good Life.

Donda West used 'Hey Mama' as her ringtone on her cellphone.

"Homecoming" features Coldplay's Chris Martin. West was at the Abbey Road studio in London working on the theme song for Mission: Impossible 3, while Martin was in a nearby room recording a BBC Radio 2 special. They met up and during a jam session recorded this track.

"I Wonder" was inspired by the U2 track "City Of Blinding Lights".

Canadian singer-songwriter Esthero co-penned "Robocop", "Love Lockdown" and Mr Hudson produced track "Streetlights" on 808s & Heartbreak. She'd previously provided the voice of the spaceship J.A.N.E. on West's Glow in the Dark tour.

it's pretty commonly known, but School Spirit is clean, because Aretha Franklin would only let Kanye sample it if the song didn't include swearing

"Never Let Me Down" was originally intended for The Blueprint 2.
rhymfest brought kanye the sample for jesus walks and co-wrote the first verse...it then took kanye months and months to write that legendary 2nd verse

the murder half of murder to excellence was intended for swizz beats upcoming album

"Heard 'Em Say" was composed very quickly during a studio session between Kanye and Levine immediately after the Grammy Awards.

It took Kanye West five years to perfect "Hey Mama."

When Mr Hudson played Kanye "Anyone But Him", Kanye said 'stop stop stop the CD,' then went on to exclaim: 'I'm gonna pay you the biggest compliment I can, that's the kind of s--t I write' (laughs).'

Kanye composed the beat for Common's song "The Corner" after a full day of partying and with less than half an hour left on the clock.

Not a Kanye song but I read somewhere he was supposed to have a verse in Jay-Z's Roc Boys (And The Winner Is) but he couldn't because he was on tour, even though you can hear him say "we in the house" etc.

Not necessarily a song fact, but if Kanye'd had his way, Selita Ebanks would've been completely naked for her Phoenix role in the "Runaway" film.

During his time with Kanye West, Justin Vernon found himself working 18-hour days laying down vocal tracks and engineering a few recordings, such as Rick Ross' verse on this song. He recalled to Spin magazine: "Rick Ross would just be sitting there a lot of the time while I was working on s--t, on a piano bench right behind me, smoking blunt after blunt after blunt. In between takes, he'd inhale and then say real quiet, 'That was good, homie.' I'd be like, 'Okay! I'll keep going!'"
