Storytellers hasn't been very active in the Celebreality era. The VH1 series (in which Meat Loaf and Jewel once shared their inspiration in intimate venues) hosted only Mary J. Blige and Kid Rock in 2008. Perhaps Yeezy will breathe new life into the fallen franchise, like he's done with the TR-808 and the shag. VH1 Storytellers: Kanye West was filmed at the Sony Stages in Los Angeles on 2/13 and premieres this Saturday 2/28 at 9/8c. We've got a sneak preview in the form of "Stronger," though it doesn't include the storytelling part.
Here's the setlist:
"Nightmare"
"Robocop"
"Flashing Lights"
"Amazing"
"Say You Will"
"Stronger"
"Good Life"
"Heartless"
"Touch the Sky"
Bonus: "Love Lockdown" will be viewable online only. I guess we'll never hear the story about how Kanye's friend showed him pictures of his kids and all Kanye could show him was pictures of his cribs? I do like that he's rapping in a giant Lite-Brite. I also like his hot pink shirt (nullus).
