"Heartless" is Double Platinum!!

A friend recently told me that Kanye West's single "Heartless" just went double platinum! Holy cow! I played the staccato flute chords on the song, the ones that come in after 8 bars in the intro and pretty much musically drive the whole song. Thats me.

I also heard a rumor that Kanye is doing an insanely over the top video for "Robocop" which i assume will be his next single. Can anybody confirm this rumor or confirm that its not true? I'd really like to know, and I really dont wanna call Kanye up with some really trivial ish. Anyway, i created a whole orchestra for this song (its most prominent in the songs hooks, the big soaring orchestra that comes in in the chorus is all me). Its not just strings, I basically created just about every instrument in the orchestra for it. It was really fun and really grueling to do, but if i hear that song on the radio 5 times a day i'll be all smiles ear to ear. Ok, back to the grind here.

-Ken Lewis

PS. I've also been told that some big radio stations have already been playing "Robocop" in regular rotation. If you've heard it on your local radio station, can you drop me a line and tell me what city / station? Thanks!!!

Not sure about the Robocop video, but they wrote an article on it back in March. Check the link below. I also found out that an unfinished version of the song got leaked. Do you know anything about that?
