Just separately this time. In a series of events reminscent of the marketing-campaign one-upsmanship that preceded this summer's two highest-profile album releases, Yeezus and Magna Carta Holy Grail, just an hour after Kanye announced his tour dates, Jay announced his own.
Kanye gave us a little more to think about. How do we interpret his choosing Kendrick Lamar as an opener? Consider how calculating Kanye is, down to the slightest visual detail. Then think about how small Kendrick Lamar's name appears on the (absolutely fantastic-looking) promotional image. 'Ye is taking the man who many people (including MTV) would call the hottest rapper in the game along for his solo tour, and it is difficult not to see it as a power move. Keep in mind, Kendrick's album went platinum recently. If numbers decided everything, Kanye would be opening for Kendrick.
It is interesting that Kanye chose to have an opening act at all. And interesting to think of all other artists he might have chosen.
If this was the Kanye that puts Miley Cyrus on a "Black Skinhead" remix, or the Kanye that puts Chief Keef on a song with Auto-Tune Justin Vernon (actually this is all the same Kanye), he might have done some crazy shit like bring out Katie Got Bandz to perform "Pop Out" at the beginning, middle, and end of every single one of his tour stops. Or like, he could have brought the entirety of One Direction and all of their immediate family members out to read some of his old Def Poetry Jam poetry out loud. Just a couple ideas...
Perhaps the best way to contextualize his Kendrick decision is that it is his "Control" response. "I wasn't mentioned?" he thinks. "Fine. I'll hire Kendrick to come out and rap in front of my audiences over the course of a three-month-long tour."
It's a game of thrones all right. And that was a power move.—Alexander Gleckman

http://www.highsnobiety.com/2013/09/17/kanye-west-myleka-unreleased-candy/When unreleased music from years ago finally sees the light of day it’s like unearthing treasure, especially when it’s as good as this. This Mykela “Candy” track assisted by Kanye West‘s lyrical prowess was also produced by the Louis Vuitton Don himself, two whole years before the release of The College Dropout. That’s more than a decade ago, which means this gem precedes his entire solo career. Hearing the music that got the Yeezy touch way back at the beginning of his career really shows just how much his work has developed.
