I don't care what anybody says about Kanye, the man has a real knack for spotting raw new talent.
I felt the same way when Run DMC discovered Aerosmith and Lady Gaga helped some dude named Tony Bennett get a record deal.
Whenever we take a road trip, my niece thinks every 70s'/80s' male singer-songwriter is Jim Croce. James Taylor comes on, she says, "this is Jim Croce, right?" Jackson Browne's playing, she says, "you really like Jim Croce, huh?" David Gates is singing, she figures it's Jim Croce. So, last time we drove somewhere, I put a Jim Croce CD on and she said, "I know this song -- my mom likes Elton John too." Still makes me laugh. I think she was totally serious, but I'm not certain anymore -- she plays me like a fiddle.
