alright so i wanna know which song would of more fitted an artist if he brought it out as a single or even a video. Imo i think kanye west's "never let me down" should have been made a single instead of workout plan , that song was a fucking banger
opinions??
"Never Let Me Down" is one of those deeper songs. It hits closer to home. It's not commercial. Most of the time, the deeper songs are the best ones on the album, but the ROC has built a history off of not releasing these as singles. They'd rather release the commercial ones. Check any album...

...other labels do the same thing. If they released the 3 best songs from the album everytime, no one would have reason to even listen to the CD, let alone buy it.
