15 Best Kanye West Tracks

5. I Wonder (Graduation)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rud9xO8VUg8 Best Line: "How many ladies in the house, how many ladies in the house without a spouse? Something in your blouse got me feeling so aroused, what you about?" Maybe the most appealing thing about Kanye is that his lack of a filter leads him to say embarrassing things. But often the most embarrassing things about yourself are the things that are the most honest. The best line shown above is not indicative of the song as a whole, which features a wistfully romantic Kanye recounting his rise to fame as it relates to the rise and fall of a relationship. Sampling Labi Siffre's My Song, once again showing the depth of his musical knowledge, Kanye the rapper and Kanye the producer sync up perfectly here as he slows his flow down in order to convey his pain, anger, and surprising hope. It's hard to picture the man who details sexual detours in bathroom stalls as a hopeless romantic, but Kanye shows off his many facets in I Wonder.
