In the space of six months, Complex editor-in-chief Noah Callahan-Bever confided in Kanye, flew to Hawaii, and found himself in rap nerd Nirvana.
Project Runaway in full effect.
“Did you look at my eyes?” asked Kanye West over the phone. He was calling from Milan. It was the middle of October 2009. It had been over a year since the completion of his last LP, 808s & Heartbreak, but this conversation was my first glimpse of what would become My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. “I mean, really look in my eyes in the ‘Run This Town’ video. If you do, you can’t tell me you’re surprised by what happened. It was all there in my eyes.”
For more on this article, head on over to Complex. Make sure you check out the photo gallery on the side, they do great justice in capturing the vibe of that studio session. I will be picking up this album soon and it will be the soundtrack to my gluttony this Thanksgiving weekend.
And now, it’s time for some Nic.

If I didn’t know the homie Chuck so well, then the music accompanied to this montage would have definitely made me believe that he is a diehard fan of Nick Cage. But this is def a mockery of his lack of talent in Hollywood. If my memory serves me well, the song was also used in “Requiem for a Dream”. Nick Cage couldn’t act himself out of a wet paper bag.
