Love Lockdown...final version?

I have done 1 or 2 posts on this song, but now 'Ye posted a studio version of the record on his blog. I am little reluctant to call this the final version, as I hope it isn't. The hook is a little sketchy as the levels are much lower than rest of the song...I am also not sure if it is completely mixed down. All that aside, I like the song! Heather has it nicely packaged up on ZShare...
LISTEN/DOWNLOAD

UPDATE* Apparently the album is entitled "808's & Heartbreak" as opposed to title "Good Ass Job" that I had made reference to in an earlier post.

LATE UPDATE* ...this just came to me...perhaps the song is done as is as some sort of analogy for being flawed...human even. This in context of the relationship he is, dare I say, singing about. Rough around the edges, finding your voice etc. ...am I over reaching here?

Sneaker bootleggers are working overtime!


If you thought the Olympic opener was impressive, wait until you see what people has managed to pull by the way of knock of nikes! I know they've been preying on Nike's Sole (play on words) for a while now, but did they really have to hit Kanye before his joints officially dropped? Only $150? You say sizes 9-12? WOW! I created a little graphic as to how I think Kanye felt when he was informed of the...what I'll call, capitalism at it's finest. On the upside, I suppose this is the most sincerest form of flattery.

Prada's, Gucci's, Ato's, and even Common Project sneakers also have imitators, but those particular shoes have been out for years, if not decades, so it's not as much of a shocker.
