Has Kanye Been Listening to The Kills?

I find this very interesting. Kanye's new single "Love Lockdown" sounds strikingly like The Kills' "Superstition" off of their first record Keep On Your Mean Side. I would also note that the drum line use in Kanye's song mimics the current use of the drumline in The Kills' "Cheap and Cheerfull", off of Midnight Boom. Coincidence? Only Kanye Knows, but i have a hunch. Have a listen for yourselves.

Here is Kanye's single "Love Lockdown" :

Who made who? I find it very interesting and understandible that Kanye would take on this new direction seeing as his life has been a shit storm latley. Cool to know he has been getting into the good shit. I cant wait to hear the rest of this record he has made. Cheers.

Current Favorite Album Covers

I havent heard either of these records. I would not be opposed to it either, but these record covers are fucking excellent. The first one is TI's new release "Paper Trail". Shit is badass and very un hip hop. Props. Second is Jenny Lewis's new record "Acid Tounge". I heard this was actually very good, so i may investigate.
