Pop2K Celebrates 15 Years of Kanye’s ‘Graduation’

Fifteen years — that’s how long “Graduation” has been on ya.

Way before Kanye West changed his name to Ye, the music legend dropped 2007’s “Graduation.” Graduating from his previous soulful hip-hop tracks to more electronic- and stadium-sounding songs, Kanye’s third album represented a departure for the rapper-producer and was his most personal to date.

The quintuple-Platinum “Graduation,” like other Kanye albums, is considered one of the greatest records in music history. And starting this weekend, Pop2K is hosting a special “homecoming” celebration for the 2000s hip-hop king.

Tune in throughout the week, starting Sunday, September 11 — the 15th anniversary of the release of “Graduation” — as Pop2K plays music from the album and re-airs Kanye’s 2007 interview with SiriusXM. You’ll hear hits like  “Stronger,” “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” and “Flashing Lights,” plus commentary from Kanye.

Listen to clips from Kanye’s interview below, and start listening to Pop2K now.
