Kanye’s new Christmas track “Christmas In Harlem”. The man just cannot give up the spotlight. In his latest Internet leak Kanye conflates traditional Christmas imagery with plenty of gangsterisms, but it’s sure to put you in the holiday spirit. Hear the track below…it’s (rein)deer-icious!
“Christmas In Harlem” has a bit of a laid-back, old-school Motown feel to it. The chorus is catchy, and Kanye strays far from his usual subject matter into more Graduation-era celebratory territory: “Wonderful night to be alive, baby/And I’m so happy I’m with my baby/And we a little late with the Christmas gifts/Rush for the mall, don’t trip, you know I drive crazy.” A five-and-a-half-minute, safe for work Kanye West song without a single word bleeped out? Truly a Christmas miracle.
