Excluding album skits, American producer and musician Music/KanyeWest [[TitleDrop title drops]] in more than 80% of songs on each of his (thus-far) nine solo albums and two collaborative albums, often dropping the title several times in different verses that takes on [[DoubleMeaningTitle multiple meanings]] depending on the context.
Kanye is also known for his unique production technique of manipulating a sample to make the listener hear the song title even if the original sample was saying something else, by either splicing and rearranging the sample, overdubbing live vocals, or adding vocal effects to the sample, this technique is used prominently to great effect in songs like "Through the Wire", "Late", "Roses", "Drunk and Hot Girls", "The Glory", and "30 Hours".

Kanye is also known for his unique production technique of manipulating a sample to make the listener hear the song title even if the original sample was saying something else, by either splicing and rearranging the sample, overdubbing live vocals, or adding vocal effects to the sample, this technique is used prominently to great effect in songs like "Through the Wire", "Late", "Roses", "Drunk and Hot Girls", "The Glory", and "30 Hours".
