Bound 1 - Kanye West (UNRELEASED 2014

credits to wahlberg on kanyetothe forum for supplying the goods

[@sammycas4850]

This sound was too soft for Yeezus. I don’t like how much Rick Rubin changed the sound but I understand it considering that it wouldn’t fit on the album. It has too much of a happy vibe. Yeezus is industrial hip hop and this sounds too much like traditional Kanye

[@ProjectSheepFilms]

isnt the point of bound 2 to be a complete juxtaposition to the rest of the album?

[@fewl6607]

@@ProjectSheepFilms yes

[@cole1]

nah, this isn't happy at all. listen to his tone. if anything, this is the perfect tone.

[@Adam1991713]

@@cole1 He is talking about the composition of the beat. Not Kanye's lyrics.

[@Josh-pc4sp]

i personally hold the original bound 2 as one of my all time fav songs

[@jaywizz17]

if anyone is still confused 4 years later, this is a recreated beat using the vocals of the song bound 2 to replicate the unreleased version that mohawke played at a concert supposedly called bound 1

[@-nYs-]

jaredxcantrell well this was supposed to be the the bound on yeezus that tyler the creator produced but it disnt make it

[@chillbunnyss]

That bound 2 bassline goes fucking well with the original melody

[@AWMK101]

The thing I don’t get is that bound 2 is called as it is because it samples Bound by the Ponderosa twins. (The “BOUND TO FALLIN IN LOVE” sample.) so how does a version exist that’s still titled Bound and has the lyrical “Bound” but doesn’t have the sample in question

[@soportetecnicohigoversomas3451]

Maybe the song didn't have a title at the time but it did have the word bound in the lyrics, then by the time bound 2 was made they found the sample and everything just clicked lol

[@2highagain]

This version was created using the acapella lyrics from bound 2. If you listen to the original “Bound 1” kanye doesnt say bound in it and im pretty sure it wasnt called bound 1 until after bound 2 was made.

[@antnesiac]

@@2highagain Pretty sure the song was originally called Nobody 2 Love from some texts from Hudson Mohawke.

[@2highagain]

@@antnesiac youre right lol “bound 1” is like the fan name for it

***** You gotta stop playin with us and respect art.

[@PicassoAudio]

***** "You gotta stop playin with us and respect art." was what Kanye said at the Post-Grammys interview.

[@joedizzleify]

+mirby I feel like this version is a little overproduced and Bound 2 is a little underproduced, a middleground of the two versions would have been ideal

[@TheKatiecat68]

this sounds like if the 1975 produced a kanye song

[@bobruperts726]

this doesn't sound like the 1975 at all though. maybe the only similarity is the use of synth, but the synth in this doesn't sound like the kind the 1975, nor does the melody

[@YellowRaydio]

2019?

[@brandon-fj8ng]

Kanye nice with it

[@wiredkhan]

Why wasn’t this the final? It’s too good.

[@moonshinei]

it didn't fit the vibe for Yeezus. final version is called Bound 2 for a reason.

[@robinh2153]

there used to be a version that had kanyes "everybody wanted to know what I would do if I would lose" speech at the end- can someone PLEASE remake it or send the link it got taken down :(

[@grdlm7960]

So its the same song, but with that speech at the end? Or is there more to it?

[@robinh2153]

@@grdlm7960 litterally the same song and then the speech at the end with the instrumental in the background- it fits so perfectly and adds so much more emotion to that speech.

logic's intro was inspired by this i guess? but how did he get it if it was unreleased?

both logic and kanye sampled this from Wee- Aeroplane

Thats exactly what it is..this was his original (unreleased) "bound"...."bound 2" is this song..with a different beat..dont get it twisted lol

[@ThexStarxGazer]

Mark Ethridge yeah this sounds like logics intro for his under pressure album

[@PrinceJayReal]

Mark Ethridge False, Bound 2 is Bound 1 after it got stripped down. The beat isn't different, it was simply stripped and toyed with a little for the album. Kanye brought in Rick Rubin to strip down every track with him on Yeezus into their purest and most simple forms.

[@PicassoAudio]

It's fake. A guy on Sound Cloud made this remix/edit.

[@blokmotion]

I thought it was called Bound 2 because it was sampled from the song Bound by ponderosa twins plus one

[@dude5301]

This shit is fake, it’s called bound 2 because the original sample was called Bound.

[@BoxOfOranges84]

Carlos Flavor That's kind of the point. This was originally going to be on Yeezus but after Kanye redid the album he had RIck Rubin 'De-produce" this song. Hence why it's called "Bound 2"
