Ok, well when you put it like that.Īs is the case with everything on the Internet ever, some will be grateful for the new knowledge, some will think you're insane and others will criticize you for not knowing all along. that's what songs are." (Looking at you Nathan!). One person was extremely grateful for deeping their appreciation of the track, another was convinced the correlation didn't even exist, and another said, "So Kanye produced a song with the instrumental and the vocals supporting each other. I shared this new nugget of knowledge with people I knew. I looked to see if anyone shared in my collective astonishment, but the comments followed typical message board protocol, ranging from "You just added a whole new dimension to an incredible track," to "Common sense, for a casual hip hop fan anyway." Now I'll admit, even with its massive play count over the years, a direct correlation between the storyline and the instrumental hadn't really crossed my mind. Did everyone know this is the case? WAS THIS COMMON KNOWLEDGE?!?! Is it even true? Is this person just being a uuge asshole and sending me down this rabbit hole for no good reason? I had way too many questions, and not much definitive proof if a quick Internet search was any indication. *opens iTunes, scrolls to Kanye with the quickness and presses play* According to this mystery person, Kanye’s career story in “Last Call” actually directly influences the instrumental’s usage of samples. I couldn't stop rereading that comment, and not just because the username was UUGE_ASSHOLE. Bill Simmons set to a Kanye beat had me sold instantly, so naturally I pressed play, but as I scrolled down the comments I stumbled on something infinitely more intriguing. I was perusing Reddit, as I've been known to waste time with do, when I stumbled across this hidden gem, where some particularly awesome person stacked Bill Simmons' first person account of how he began working for ESPN over the "Last Call" beat. I've loved the song for as long as I can remember, and yet I just read something the other day that added a brand new dimension to the listening experience. In a world where I need constant heat preloaded on my iPhone 5, with its 2010-esque 16GBs of memory, I still won't hesistate to fill valuable space with "Last Call." This beat is still one of my favorites - from what I gather I'm far from alone - and the instrumental is a deciding factor in it earning "5-star" status. It was an outro, but it was also the beginning of a career that already had its own beginning, middle and end. I was able to get a first-hand account of the ups and downs of the music industry, and best of all, it was set over one of the most glorious instrumentals to have graced my ears. "Last Call" was more than a song, it was the journey of an artist told by the artist himself.
