Kanye Brings Out Elton John, Rihanna, Alicia Keys, La Roux for New Single

Published Oct 19, 2010
While a whole host of MCs have been guesting on Kanye Wests G.O.O.D. Fridays series, including Pusha T, Common and Kid Cudi, the eccentric hip-hop star is bringing something new to the table for his latest single All the Lights: singers. The third single off his upcoming My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy will feature a number of notable vocalists.A report on Hip Hop DX points out that West told the audience at the L.A. screening of his film Runaway last night (October 18) that the upcoming cut will feature 11 guest spots. The talent includes Rihanna, Alicia Keys, John Legend, The-Dream, Tony Williams, Charlie Wilson, Ryan Leslie, Fergie, La Rouxs Elly Jackson, and, most interestingly, the legendary Elton John. Kid Cudi also spits on the cut.
If you were anticipating full verses from each artist, youre going to be disappointed with Yes decision to take bits and pieces of each singers performance, but the rapper promises All the Lights to be completely seamless and completely ghetto as fuck.
If you cant wait until the November 22 release of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, the track will be played during Runaways U.S. television debut on MTV, VH1, BET and MTV2 on October 23. Sorry, Canada, theres still no official air date for here yet.
