Kanye and Rihanna Re-Record Paranoid...

It seems that Kanye West is making plans to release his next single and it involves Rihanna. "Paranoid" is one of my favorite tracks on the album and he reportedly he is teaming up with Rihanna to re-record the track, which is expected to be released in January of 2009. Reportedly, Rihanna will re-record the hook to the song, but this is just a rumor. It hasn't been confirmed by either Kanye or Rihanna at this time.

Earlier this month, Kanye stated that he wasn't going to release any more tracks from 808's and Heartbreak for a while so that his previously released songs "Love Lockdown" and "Heartless" could "soak into culture." I think this is a good idea though, if it happens. If Kanye wants to put Rihanna on the hook, then I say get the show on the road. Make a big time video for the song with Rihanna in it and I think it will definitely help with the albums sales. The last time that I checked. the album was approaching the platinum mark, but currently is in the 700,000 to 800,000 copies range. I must say that I am loving 808's and Heartbreak. If you haven't bought the album, I must reiterate that you should and give it a thorough listen. Every time that I listen to it, I love it more and more. It definitely put the icing on the cake for the year of 2008!! You gotta respect Kanye for doing what inspires him and that makes a great album in my opinion...
