![]() ![]() ![]() Lyrically, the album features a mix of more socially charged songs such as “Crack Music” and “Diamonds from Sierra Leone” to more personal cuts like “Hey Mama” and “Roses.” Kanye’s new found success after his breakout album The College Dropout allowed him to expand his ambitions from a single violinist he used in the The College Dropout (see “The New Workout Plan”) to an entire string orchestra in the song “Late” with ten violins, four violas, and four cellos. The album spawned Kanye classics such as “Touch the Sky,” “Hey Mama,” “Diamonds from Sierra Leone,” and his best-selling song to date, “Gold Digger.” Late Registration debuted at number 1 on the Billboard 200 and has sold 3.1 million in the US. The second studio album from Kanye West, Late Registration is noted for its continued exploration of the social themes introduced in The College Dropout as well as the orchestral production influenced by album co-producer Jon Brion.
