The tracklist has not been confirmed yet....

Despite HMV Japan and Tower Records Japan posting up tracklists, there is no official word from Def Jam nor Kanye West. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.125.254.230 (talk) 20:02, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

-The list is very obviously fake. Kanye played a song at a club recently called "Perfect Bitch" and said that it was on Cruel Summer, yet that song isn't listed. Furthermore, it has also been confirmed that Frank Ocean, Jay Electronica, and Mr Hudson will be on the album, and none of them are listed. Let's wait until we have an official confirmation before we add it to this page, people.

Track list confirmed by Amazon today. SrGangsta (talk) 15:58, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Clique

The new single "Clique" needs a page. Eleventhblock (talk) 20:24, 8 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'll create it ASAP. SrGangsta (talk) 23:01, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't seen it was already created. Ok, it's all good there. SrGangsta (talk) 02:01, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Noah Goldstein IS NOT Noah "40" Shebib

I've made this change like five times but it keeps getting changed back. Drake's producer 40 IS NOT on Cruel Summer. Noah Goldstein may sound unfamiliar but he's been working with Kanye West for years. Noah "40" Shebib isn't even in the album credits. Please fix this mix-up. On page for "Clique" too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.2.129.87 (talk) 18:40, 15 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was moved. --BDD (talk) 16:36, 26 September 2012 (UTC) (non-admin closure)[reply]

Cruel Summer (album) → Cruel Summer (GOOD Music album) – This article was originally at Cruel Summer (GOOD Music album) and it was blanked and then protected on August 31, [1], and on September 1, [2], was changed to finish the protection on September 11. In between the two edits above, the article was recreated at Cruel Summer (album), [3], to seemingly get around this page protection. There is also an article for Cruel Summer (Ace of Base album) and Cruel Summer (album) should redirect to Cruel Summer. Aspects (talk) 05:14, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

hmm, the page was blocked when I've created the page. The admins didn't unlock it, and I don't know why. But if you want, move the page cause I think it's better. -SrGangsta (talk) 10:07, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support per standard disambiguation practice. --Rob Sinden (talk) 13:20, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support if anything the Ace of Base album should be here, as it was back in May. -- 76.65.131.248 (talk) 02:05, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support The Ace of Base-album was released first, so of course the GOOD Music-album should be moved to Cruel Summer (GOOD Music album).--z33k (talk) 20:04, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support, but neither album article should occupy this page; no guideline suggests chronology has any bearing on this. Cruel Summer (album) should redirect to Cruel Summer. Dan56 (talk) 20:25, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted User: Chasewc91's move of this article to "Kanye West Presents...". Official title notwithstanding, the consensus here is for "Cruel Summer (GOOD Music album)", which is the commonly referred to (by nearly all sources) and most appropriate title (Wikipedia:Article titles#Precision) Dan56 (talk) 05:52, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't even look here so I wasn't aware of the discussion. My bad. –Chase (talk / contribs) 15:07, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Studio or compilation

Chasewc91's recent edit to the article changed the album type to compilation, which I think makes sense and added a citation for it just in case. But I looked at Metacritic's entry for the album and it calls it a "studio compilation album". Which is right? Dan56 (talk) 06:06, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I honestly don't feel like digging for sources at this moment but there are a lot out there that call it a compilation. As a various artists collection it will (or should, if my knowledge of the charts is correct) chart on the UK Compilations Chart instead of the UK Albums Chart as Young Money's similar 2009 release did. –Chase (talk / contribs) 15:07, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Several sources including Pitchfork Media and Rolling Stone refer to it not as a Kanye West studio album, but as an album by "GOOD Music", including several that cite it as a compilation album. It's not a universally accepted fact but there are more than enough sources that justify listing it as a compilation record. I agree with this decision.

To the World - Teyana Taylor

on iTunes, Teyana Taylor is part of To the World... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.128.187.120 (talk) 19:27, 23 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The Morning featured Kanye West

Kanye West performs the last few verses on The Morning (or sampled from "New God Flow"), so he definitely should get a mention in the title (I've listened to the compilation since it was leaked). Besides, XXL magazine states that Kanye is featured on eight of the twelve songs. therewillbehotcake (talk) 03:25, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Can we have the album cover without the explicit logo on it

http://theversed.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/GOOD-Music-Cruel-Summer-Album.jpg

replace the cover with this pic. idk why the album covers on here have to have the parental advisory label on it f it's explicit, it looks ugly. it should have the original photo

Ok, I'mma do it. SrGangsta (talk) 16:33, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Differences between physical and digital versions

Someone should update that there are differences between the physical and digital versions of the album. For instance, John Legend's vocals are far more prominent on the iTunes version of "Sin City." On the physical edition, the portion that would be his vocals is a auto-tuned voice that sounds nothing like John Legend. There's also some mixing differences on "The One." The drums are not as loud on iTunes. "Sin City" has less bass on iTunes. I know this sounds like a very nitpicky thing, but these changes are there if you listen closely. It appears that the iTunes version underwent some revisions because of the physical edition leak. If anything, the John Legend vocals should be mentioned. It's the most glaring difference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.2.129.86 (talk) 14:17, 28 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
