If there was ever a time to give our boy Kanye West a little ego-check, it'd be just about NOW. The Fray (yes, the sweet-talkin' melodic American band) just upstaged West with their rendition of his 808's hit, 'Heartless'. Not only does the song sound better on a couple guitars and a drum set (oh, and no-auto tune - Jay-Z was right), but the video's animation and emotion may edge out Kanye's little Hype-Williams-directed-wonder. Now, don't get us wrong, we jammed to 'Ye's video last year...but that was SO 2008. Watch the bigger and better 'Heartless' version above and connect The Fray below!

So I blogged about this on one of my blogs!!! Thanks for the info! See it here!
The song does sound better. And the video is MUCH better. Plus it helps if you love The Fray. Which I do. The Fray 1, Kanye 0.
