Todd - don't believe he played all the instruments. Think he had a core group from previous (Seachange?) sessions also used on Morning Phase. His dad did the string arrangements. I agree with you on the quality of his production and overall sound quality. Beck's a great producer if nothing more (though I do happen to think he's more). There's a lot of ugliness in our world. Morning Phase is something of an antidote.
Kanye West - Grammy comment, re Beck
Kanye West on-camera last nite: 'Beck needs to respect artistry.' Then a long rant about...ah just watch it.
What would Kanye say about Beethoven? Or Dylan? or Matisse?
Having fun with this as Twitter is aflame already with it. But the more I think about it, the more it gnaws on me. He was referring to Beck winning Album of the Year (instead of Beyonce). I could go on a long rant myself about his ego, general creepiness, but nothing I could add. But his comments are heard by millions of music fans...
Anyhoo, anyone else see those comments? Reactions?
