I'm somewhat appalled and disgusted and terrified that such a thing could happen. In this "song", you will hear nothing worth mentioning really, except the words "21st century schizoid man". When I first read that Kanye had done it, I was in disbelief and had too check it myself. When I finally heard it, I nearly spat out my tea. It's such a shame that the newer generation is taking old untouchable classics and mangling them into their so-called "works of art". RIP culture.

The guilty song for the morbidly curious:

So it seems he used it in more than one song. The above video I posted also contains that sample.

It's Kanye worshipping himself. What's new?

He became irrelevant a pretty long time ago.


Also Jay-Z is not very talented. Boring.

I could list 10 people better than them. RA the Rugged Man being the first that comes to mind.


This also brings to mind another prog rock hip-hop sampling... though I'm more down with this.



At least it's not stupid materialistic self-worship.

But seriously, how DARES he desecrate the old untouchable classic gods OH MY GOD I can't believe he thinks he is "an artist". How can modern hip-hop even be good, especially Kanye West?!!! No to mention Fripp actually LIKED the song... What did he think? It's like betraying all that is prog, all we stand for, the good music, 20 minute songs, 6 minute keyboard solos, everything.. I'm so disappointed right now... I think I'm born in the wrong generation.

I prefer the shorter prog rock songs.

And Kanye West is not an artist, unless his persona is the art and everyone that buys his albums is the joke.

And modern hip-hop is the best it has ever been. 

And i know troll post why am I even responding? LOL

I know, it's pretty bad, but this is a prog forum. I couldn't resist. At least I hope my Creep post will have more success.

I'm very curious as to what your source is that Fripp "actually LIKED the song"?  Please provide a link if possible.  When Fripp announced his retirement from the music business several months ago, he used the unauthorized sampling of Schizoid Man by Kanye - and it's subsequent 1,000,000 youtube hits before he was even asked permission for the songs use - as one of the examples of how his musical career had become "an exercise in futility".
