It has also been said that Kanye West attempted to bring back a really soulful feel to the album. Music Production Ĭommon said that on some tracks, Kanye tried to chop the samples in a similar way to Dilla as a way of honoring him. I definitely felt freer." Kanye West described the recording sessions as "a real easy environment". At a certain point, as an artist, you go through things like, 'Man, I gotta make something better than what I did before.'
