Kanye West - Home

[killahcamkam]

Easily Kanye's best song

[hakeem2cool]

Whole else other then me has a playlist......WITH JUST KANYE WEST

[tpot91]

kanye sounds raw as fuck! id still nod my head to this with a broken neck.

[jasminethomas23]

Yes! This is the Home I heard in 2003! The Original!

[macscarle]

what's the lesson of all this?

chris martin ruins everything.

[michael97914]

this is awesome but i like the beat for homecoming better! and that other dude in the song is pretty sweet too

[home9dog2blue]

the way some fans come off. it just seems like they listen/like an artist because everybody else does. that's why i hate listening to the same shit as other ppl sometimes.

[DadeCountyPapohh]

Timeless.

[platnum960]

one of my favorite Kanye tracks period...top 3 easy

[Deangilo1014]

i think homecoming is a referbished up beat version of this song

[broski90]

Anyone else notice that this is homecoming lyrics?

[2510cp]

@broski90 This is the original 

[300grand456]

i got the game figured out right

now i just gotta find my team to put in work with me

[MrHighmrk]

homecoming lyrics????

[MEFvsCHEF]

@MrHighmrk yea but this the original

[thepolacek]

This is the real shit!

[andiebear1515]

[MoneyIzMyne]

Great song to play for ya mans when he come home from doin a bid

[solidsnakeO7D]

Enjoyed!

[MrJamescyr]

[shadowgutt]

@MrJamescyr The original.

[MyJazzyWayz]

waaay better than the other one

[MrHouTube]

@MyJazzyWayz mos def

[hernandadmx]

he couldn't rap that well. Love the beat...

[malacology]

Great classic

[jkenney940]

So soulful! Bring it back Kanye....

[SIDimage]

such fucking good music

[youngnoles05]

Way better version. Heard it before the college dropout. Soulful version

[ReDiLs51s]

I am so glad someone uploaded this. I personally liked this version more. :P

[ptonge1]

classic



[ohhhIDGAF]

good shit. 

[BeforeTheStarsSleep]

I was listening to "Homecoming" recently and knew the lyrics sounded familiar. I remembered hearing this version years ago. I'm glad to have been able to find it on here. Thanks for putting this up!

[behonwo1]

miss these kanye days..

[RAYchande]

This music has a soul !!!

[ahmad1240]

beats sick.



[skaterx999]

This is before the College Dropout but it's not the original. There's an older version with a few bars missing at the end of each version. He's not talking over the beginning in the older version either. Unfortunately it's not on YouTube. :(

[pmreimer]

@skaterx999 I remember that leak. it was an RNS release I think.  Way before retail.

[numbs100]

yyyeeeeeeaaaaaa who here is from the south subs chicago?

[markpaperz]

i like homecomming better only cuz i heard it first but this beat is way better hands down

[oudemanh90]

so much better then homecoming..

[MrHighmrk]

@oudemanh90 wtf you talking bout, chris martin has a great piano beat that compliments the melody, he sings well, and the song comes much nicely together. this is good, but it seems like just some garage rapping. homecoming is some real shit

[Gambeezzy]

i wish i could say that i heard this before homecoming :(

[BlackandMildsheis]

This version is definitely better, as most originals are. More heartfelt, lyrical, and soulful.

[BlackandMildsheis]

This version is definitely better, as most originals are.

[TheIntoxicatedEgg11]

I kind of like this version better than Homecoming

[cmbuvi92]

I actually like this version better

[FOReverYOUng765]

@xXMARCELLO96Xx if his mother was still alive he probably would still have a similar style... RIP Ms. West

[xXMARCELLO96Xx]

I miss this kanye

[xxBeansandRicexx]

HOMECOMING



[Im2nice14]

this song deffently touches the heart more then the other version damn if kanye could make one more album like this just one more

[wujek9292]

This version is so much better!

[bigbgotgame2]

john legend goes so fucking hard on this!!!!!

[Uninserious]

this is so much better than Homecoming with chris martin, sooo much better

[19Hitman87]

thank u!!! so much better than the remake

[SkiIlzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz]

Dude's a genius. Saved one of his best songs for an album way down the road.

[ricodevore]

Where's the samples from? the chorus, beat and background voice?

[IRAemmo]

But is this not Homecoming?

[devon8trillionaire]

@IRAemmo the production is not but the lyrics are

[jaquel491]

@IRAemmo It came out waaay before Homecoming. This is from the "Through the Wire" era

[araam101]

this isn''t on college dropout is it?

[WREQUIEM]

@araam101 nope

[airkm231]

@araam101 naw its on his mixtape freshman adjustment 1

[ElhamGerrard8]

@1984jordo

and you have no money to buy this ! (; I have every records by him ! WTF are you talking ?? there ain´t no pop ! Homecoming is the same lyric,but the beat is much better and for sure Chris Martin is not an pop artist !

[Bigjeezy614]

this is so much better than the one on graduation

[DementedXMusic]

How can anyone call homecoming better..this is classic

[ElhamGerrard8]

Homecoming is better

[kaksco]

@ElhamGerrard8 but this one is more soulful. and thats why i personally like this one more

[garfreeek]

so the sample in homecomming was kanye himself ^_^

unexpectedly cool! And i love the beat, and it works better with the lyrics. Homecomming is more varried though!

[janjrara]

wats wrong with autotune?

[maartenvdc89]

Nice sample of Patti labelle & the blue belles - you'll never walk alone

[ricksta760oside]

@overbyjames and his latest album and a lot of his good friday songs?? Im not sure. Havent heard them in a while but I remeber a lil auto tune here and there. Regardless kanye still gets dynnnne. Hah

[gregoryhollmond]

NEEDA DOWNLOAD LINK!

[emilylean]

he was so much better back then. too much auto tune now man.

[overbyjames]

@emilylean wtf are you talking about, he used autotune on one album, "808s & Heartbreak".

[GroddGuerrilla]

Goddamn, he's terrible.

[TheHypaLink]

@GroddGuerrilla Your life is terrible.

[pSmurf954]

They say home is where ya heart is,guess 4 people are heartless....

[joel6291]

This definately has more flavor the homecoming but i can still appreciate chris martin on piano, both great in my opinion

[Baller527]

4 people are homeless. They used the computer from the library

[donnelloutlaw]

Wasn't a chunk of this song from another song of Kanye's?

[aylix89]

@donnelloutlaw yeah he used the same lyrics in that song with chris martin from cold play i think the song is called home coming

[donnelloutlaw]

@aylix89

Oh Okay, thanks. I was going to think that this was a underground track or something.

Appreciate it.

[TheRealEarsiqRadkeys]

Nice I remember when I found this song back in the day....which was a Wednesday if I remember correct. Great song I like this version then the newer one he did but whatever good stuff!

[BlackandMildsheis]

One of my favorite Kanye's!!

[bigbookiej]

Yeah he took them to church with this version

[ClorophyllFilms]

god damn this is good

[wiltvideos]

Are those verses of Homecoming I hear? Wow Kanye is the only rapper I know now that replicated the same verse from a song on one album, to another song on another album

[Lakers24pwnz]

@wiltvideos

This was never put on College Dropout

[wiltvideos]

@Lakers24pwnz Oh ok I figured that out looking at my song library :p I like both versions

[muteol]

@wiltvideos This song was never on College Dropout; someone just put Kanye's verse on a different beat.

[mixdfeelings]

@muteol no this was a son from his mixtape freshmen adjustmen before college dropout he just redid it on graduation

[HelloMyNameIs834]

This is sort of like "I Used To Love H.E.R." By Common! :)

[TheRealEarsiqRadkeys]

@HelloMyNameIs834 just a few bars yes :)

[88wangelo]

This beat sick as hell

[DylBreezy]

freshman adjustment

[zach90zach]

this is better than homecoming

[Antrizzle2009]

This is a great version of the song, but not as refined as the Graduation version. The sound quality of this isn't good enough for an official release. Still good tho.

[BoxOfOranges84]

Fuck the Graduation version put this on an album!!

[cosmicaptain]

chill as shit. love this soul music

[TheMasterMI6]

Did he just say he met a 3 year old girl that likes to blow trees? (I mean no offense)

[4Bei2Ambitious0]

@TheMasterMI6 He's talking about Chicago, He moved there when he was 3 years old.

[BoxOfOranges84]

@TheMasterMI6 First of all he said HE was 3 yrs old. Second he's using a girl to talk about Chicago ( If you aint know by now, "I'm talkin bout Chi-Town".). Good job listening bro

[garnett4mvp8]

@TheMasterMI6 the girl is really chicago. her name is windy (chicago is a windy city) so she literally blows the trees like the wind does

[goonerboy93]

The remake is amazing... this tops it!

[TheQDizz]

I just really wish Kanye and John Legend did more songs like this, the live performances with both of them are some of my favorites.

[wudwudendabudd]

love the vibe on this one

the other one is cool too, but the beat and dude singing is good.

[goonerboy93]

@wudwudendabudd that "dude" is john legend... listen to his stuff. Great producer and singer, so soulful! :)

[jugernoty9]

this is way better then the remake

[MizzBonitaBabii]

-My favoriTe song by kanye..2011 still listenin 2 it & neva do get tired of it <3

[XeeGen]

Honestly, what the fuck. Why don't I know this and why wasn't this track resleased :| Would've been one of the best tracks on the album.

[iMstrKrft]

@XeeGen It was released. It's called "Homecoming" featuring Chris Martin. It's from the 'Graduation' album, but with more verses and a different beat.

[MrBigbready]

This is my shit

[217RPerkins]

this song makes me home homesick

[HeaDynugZz]

play this every time before i home back to chicago

[ILuvUPacman]

Do u no where i can download this song???

[ILuvUPacman]

Do u no where i can download this song???

[ILuvUPacman]

Do u no where i can download this song???

[puroproductions114]

Anybody got this beat?

[papasmurfsaysyes]

classic soul kanye

[NYGMEN2008]

If people really paid attention Homecoming wasn't a new song to them.

[brownkidd23]

new kanye goes in!

[leeliol]

Soul is at full capacity

[tokinblckgie]

@leeliol

I swear. Nothing beats that soul sound.

[AdvertizeIt]

This shit is so much better than the stuff he makes today.

[TOSC850TALLYHO]

@AdvertizeIt You Lyin this years album went Platinum and thats a Fact

[onionbootyman]

Both homecoming's are really good piano in the graduation one is dope but the soul sample in the back of this one is sick.

[filamacan]

This beat is so soulful.  Gives me chills.

[JustCallMeSwen]

i like homecoming more than this one

[KalienteMami]

Love this song! Kanye repping his hometown the Chi!

[ReversedCorps]

was listening to this day before i moved house still brings back the sadness

[kwphillyzkp2]

3 people are homeless

[ChaosAurion]

@ Chasm1111

New Kanye Sucks ass. Thumbs this pls, just for the truth of the statement.

[MrSkylerG]

why arent any good songs on itunes? this is amazing good and its not even on itunes so lame 

[mksechelt94]

is this like common's song I used to lover her?? about hip hop an evvry thing

[jameschmidt1]

I like the Homecoming on Graduation better, but still a good song.

[KasirRham]

@jameschmidt1 same here

[theosirispapers]

omfg this hook and beat just touches my fucking soul

[mfink82]

what album is this on????????

[WONTOOohhfriday]

@mfink82 freshman adjustment mixtape

[zootey313]

kan i get a thumbz up 4 no reason ??

[whdunkley789]

@zootey313 Fuck no homie you can't spell.

[crichton510]

classic kanye and john legend callabo!!

[gransonero]

Classic Kanye track right here .



[thesh00ter]

@gransonero Actually that's Bilal doing the hook. but nonetheless dope track. i wish people would listen to this (as well as his other masterpieces) and realize that he hasn't make his money off of incidents like Snookie and Kim K do

[nooneuknoe11]

I hate the mainstream verison of this. The original is the best verison of this song!

[acoff13]

do people know what opinions are? not everybody has to think the way you do, damn

[joshlyons93]

Why they always so much hate dayum! Listen to music and appreciate it for what it is but I love this song good skating music

[nickyq52]

The truth is Kanye has only become better with time. He has so much restriction in his voice in this song and the early years. Now he just lets it go

[relyanddefy]

this beat is soooo nice x x x

[1phreshprince1]

I Feel MBDTF Should Have Been 808's Like If 808's didnt existtahts what it would be but yea ye aint returning to soul music

[jelloman17]

To those of you that say they want that kanye back. I kind of feel bad cause he isn't coming back to this.

And to those of you that think MBDTF means "he's back". Well no. Believe me I love Kanye West, he makes awesome music I have all of his albums and they are magnificent in their own way.

My point being each album has its own style. Some people like different types of him. Some people like the Graduation Kanye, the 808's. Others might just like The College Dropout. But I love them all, peace

[derrick85739]

i use to think lil wayne was the greatest ever but i think kanye is then wayne then eminem

[iHyPNoTiiKZzZx]

@derrick85739 lol are you a moron 1.eminem 2.kanye 3.wanye

[cashkingh89]

@iHyPNoTiiKZzZx No, Wayne is not even in the top 10. Learn your shit. Mainstream fans like you make the rest of us look ignorant. smh..

[iHyPNoTiiKZzZx]

@cashkingh89 Learn your shit?Mainstream?I been listening to wanye since 2000 before he was mainstream no one can compare to his metaphors do you even listen to the lyrics go listen to 6 foot 7 foot?I see you listen to waka chris brown roscoe there mainstream.Your real hard to listen to chris brown and your from canada.

[cashkingh89]

@iHyPNoTiiKZzZx So cause I listen to Chris Brown and am Canadian I'm assumed soft? Ok, you can have that you ignorant jackass. But, I'll tell you right now you know shit about metaphors and hip hop in general. You want metaphors how about you take your bumass to a Lupe Fiasco track, or Nas, or Big L...you probably think Big L's best song was Ebonics though so I'll leave you with your thoughts. Ignorant jackass...hop of Wayne's nuts you douche he's garbage, you can't be over 15 years old...smh...

[cashkingh89]

@iHyPNoTiiKZzZx I see you got a nice little picture of Pac on your profile. Take that down before you soil the brothers name any further...what a disgrace...dude would be rolling over in his grave over a faggot like Wayne running the mainstream like he is...

[iHyPNoTiiKZzZx]

@cashkingh89 lol your from canada go listen to chris brown u faggot

[cashkingh89]

@iHyPNoTiiKZzZx Kids these days. Look up ignorance in the dictionary and then see if they'll put your picture beside it as an example. Douchebag.

[iHyPNoTiiKZzZx]

@cashkingh89 you must be a 10 year old wigger huh?

[cashkingh89]

@iHyPNoTiiKZzZx Your responses are terrible dawg. I'm not even close to white, but I bet you are ;) Nice try though...

[MasterAmbassador]

@iHyPNoTiiKZzZx Yeahhh, you're not cool to make fun of someone because of where they're from. You know how much the whole world hates the U.S?

[tehrjmags]

kanye can never get back to this good shit

[100percentflymusic]

i don't care what NONE of yall say...

kanye west > eminem > lil wayne

[ECsnow33]

@100percentflymusic overall production - kanye, lyrics - Eminem, producer of shit - lil wayne
