Kim Kardashian Reportedly Upset Ye Brought Issues With Their Kids Online

February 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In the whirlwind world of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s relationship, chaotic moments seem to have become a regular occurrence. However, the latest saga involving their children has left Kim Kardashian reportedly upset and concerned about the effects of Kanye’s public outbursts. According to sources close to the situation, Kim is notably displeased with Kanye’s recent social media posts. Particularly one where he aired grievances about their children’s schooling. In a now-deleted Instagram post, Kanye expressed his desire for their kids to leave the prestigious Sierra Canyon School in Los Angeles, citing it as a “fake school for celebrities” that is being exploited by ‘the system.’ Kim, on the other hand, reportedly holds a different view.

She is said to believe that Sierra Canyon School is an excellent educational institution for their children. Furthermore, Kim values the importance of consistency in their children’s live. A factor she sees as crucial amidst the ongoing challenges in their family dynamic. The decision to enroll their children in Sierra Canyon School was not made lightly. Sources indicate that Kim was drawn to the school due to its reputation for providing a top-notch education.

Kim Kardashian Isn’t Happy With Ye

Additionally, the need for stability and routine for their children amidst the public scrutiny surrounding their family played a significant role in Kim’s decision-making process. For Kim Kardashian, the welfare and well-being of her children remain paramount. Kanye’s public declarations regarding their children’s schooling not only undermine her choices but also raise concerns about the impact of such exposure on their kids. The couple shares four children – North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. Ensuring a nurturing environment for them is of utmost importance to both parents.

This incident underscores a broader issue faced by many high-profile families. There’s a delicate balance between privacy and public disclosure, especially when it comes to matters involving children. While Kim and Kanye have often lived their lives under the spotlight, their children deserve protection from unnecessary public scrutiny and discord. It’s evident that Kim Kardashian is navigating a challenging situation with grace and concern for her children’s well-being. As the saga unfolds, one can only hope that the couple can find common ground and prioritize their children’s needs above all else. After all, in the midst of fame and fortune, the innocence and happiness of their children should always come first.

Bianca Censori Dons Sheer Top For NSFW Paris Outing With Kanye West

February 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Another day, another risqué outfit for Bianca Censori, who recently popped out for a Parisian dinner with her husband Kanye West. Moreover, on Wednesday night (February 28), they hit up a restaurant in the City of Love, and she wore a very revealing sheer top that exposes her breasts quite openly. In fact, the former Yeezy architect’s entire outfit was pretty see-through, and with this lack of self-consciousness in mind, she snuggled up quite closely with the Chicago artist at the eatery. Regardless of what you think of these fashion choices and antics, it’s clear that they definitely captivated a lot of style critics online.

Furthermore, this also comes amid odd timing, as Kanye West recently called out Kim Kardashian for keeping their kids at a “fake school.” Given the more lewd and inappropriate displays around his life, including Bianca Censori and all the sexual content that he either shares or indulges in lyrically, it’s a bit of a bizarre standard to uphold. After all, Ye’s issues with his ex-wife’s parenting don’t seem paired with a more traditional or, again, self-conscious set of family values. Unfortunately for everyone involved, it’s probably not going to be a resolved question for a long time.

Elsewhere, Kanye West and Bianca Censori are also showing their relationship dynamics by rallying together against big corporations… as wild as that sounds. For example, they recently prompted concertgoers at the 46-year-old’s Vultures listening event in Paris to chant “F**k Adidas.” This comes amid reports that the company will sell their remaining Yeezy inventory and roll out new colorways, which the “BURN” MC obviously took issue with. However, it doesn’t seem like this overt disapproval will halt the company from proceeding with their initiative.

Meanwhile, Censori also intervened in Adin Ross’ assessment of her husband’s situation. What’s more is that the streamer even apologized for speaking on him and his financial struggles, which is heartening to see without the context of all of Ye’s antisemitism. Even if it may be a misguided effort, it’s always at least a little bit nice to see a couple stand up for each other. You can find pictures of this revealing Paris fit in the “Via” link down below. On that note, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Bianca Censori.

Ty Dolla Sign Reacts To “Vultures” Keeping No. 1 Spot For Another Week

February 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

While a lot of conversation and acclaim around Vultures surrounds Kanye West, Ty Dolla $ign is just as important -– if not more -– to the album’s quality. Moreover, the project just cemented itself as the number one album on the Billboard 200 albums chart in the U.S. for another week following its chart-topping debut. It narrowly beat out another big album, Yeat’s 2093, for the top spot, and all artists have plenty of reason to celebrate. In fact, Ty recently took to Twitter on Sunday (February 25) to celebrate this accolade with a selfie holding up a single finger. “Not the 2,” he captioned his pic.

Furthermore, Ty Dolla Sign’s been enjoying a lot of success as a result of his collaborative album with Kanye West. His numbers are greater than they’ve ever been, and more importantly, many folks finally gave him the full-length flowers that were usually reserved to guest appearances. Regardless, the Los Angeles native hasn’t escaped a lot of the controversy behind Vultures, although most of that falls on Ye’s antisemitism, career relationships, and far-right ties. Despite the context around his success, he made this choice, and it hasn’t stopped even ardent Kanye critics from praising his contributions.

While it’s a matter of personal preference, there’s a strong argument for Ty Dolla Sign being the most consistently compelling and skillful part of Vultures. Future installments (which Timbaland says are on the way) might reflect this too, or perhaps Kanye West will step things up a notch. Either way, there’s a lot of excitement for this project’s future, which is supposed to bring Vultures 2 next week if initial teases are to be believed. It’s a Ye rollout, so we aren’t holding our breath.

Whether or not these future installments land on streaming services (and face removal again), the “Blasé” creative made his mark. As one of the most commercially successful independent albums ever, Vultures is a feat regardless of your take on its quality and its Chicago creator’s behavior. Let’s see what they follow it up with. For more news and the latest updates on Ty Dolla Sign and Vultures, check back in with HNHH.

“Vultures” Beats Yeat’s “2093” For No. 1, Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign Get Second Week On Top

February 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Billboard 200 albums chart dated March 2 might go down as one of the most competitive of 2024 when it comes to its two top spots. Despite previous reports, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s collaborative album Vultures 1 ended up beating out Yeat’s 2093 for the number one spot. Moreover, Vultures spends its second week atop the charts with around 75,000 equivalent album units in its second week in the U.S., according to Billboard themselves and Luminate, an independent data provider. On the other hand, 2093 debuts at the No. 2 spot with around 70,000 album equivalent units, which is the California native’s best-performing week yet on the chart.

As for 2093, this album had a couple of versions come out which contributed to this chart performance. First, the project’s core edition released on Friday, February 16, with 22 songs and a whole lot of praise from casuals and die-hards alike. Then, Yeat dropped two new songs for it the following day, these being “As We Speak” with Drake and “Never quit.” Finally, on February 21, he dropped a version of the LP with four additional tracks exclusively on his website.

Meanwhile, Vultures has been through so many changes, alterations, and cycles that it’s hard to tell what it’s current status is. The good news for fans is that it’s back on Apple Music after briefly disappearing on Saturday (February 24). However, as of writing this article, there are two versions of the project available: one with a capitalized title and one with an uncapitalized title. It’s been really bizarre to witness all these removals, disputes, and of course all the controversial content behind Ye’s rollout antics and statements.

In fact, there’s a Vultures cut that isn’t on Apple Music, but returned to Spotify after it was removed from both streamers for unrightfully sampling Donna Summer. But all that aside, and no matter what you think of these Billboard placements, these are still great achievements to celebrate. The “Breathe” MC had his best commercial performance yet, and the “BURN” duo continue to make this one of the most commercially successful independent releases ever. For more news and the latest updates on Kanye West, Ty Dolla Sign, and Yeat, come back to HNHH.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign’s “GOOD (DON’T DIE)” Back On Spotify After Sample Issues

February 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s collaborative album Vultures has gone through a lot of hoops and obstacles to finally land on streaming services. Moreover, one of the biggest issues that the Yeezy-donning duo faced was that of sample clearances, and one of these cases relates to a legendary track. For those unaware, they used Donna Summer’s classic “I Feel Love” on their song “GOOD (DON’T DIE),” which the legendary artist’s estate claimed they didn’t clear properly. As such, the track disappeared off Spotify, but on Saturday (February 24), fans noticed that it’s back on the tracklist, although they still have a lot of questions.

For one, when you actually click on “GOOD (DON’T DIE)” on Vultures 1‘s tracklist, the cover art that appears in your Spotify player will appear with an odd, amateurish, digitally illustrated cover -– at least, as of writing this article. It’s unclear if this is just a glitch, an intentional choice, or a mistake to be rectified soon, but either way, it points to this song’s return as incomplete, or at least contested. Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign are currently in Europe for some listening events, so we don’t know how on top of all this they are. Considering how fickle these changes and developments may be… enjoy “GOOD (DON’T DIE)” while you can, Spotify users. It might disappear as soon as you read this.

Furthermore, another big issue with Vultures‘ release was its distribution. Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign were able to release it independently via Yeezy and with the help of a generous online distributor. They ended up making massive profits as a result, and fans lauded this as a massive success. Still, when looking at the antisemitic and far-right-tied reasons for this difficulty in securing a distributor, it did make fans lament this conflictive situation.

Regardless, fans are still bumping Vultures heavily, especially since we don’t really know what could happen with the album next. Yeat’s 2093 is expected to overtake its top spot on the Billboard charts this week, but all fans want is a consistent way to listen to the album. Let’s see what the future holds for this evolving and always scrutinized LP. For more news and the latest updates on Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign, stay logged into HNHH.

Rick Ross Praises Kanye West’s “Revolutionary” Yeezy 2s At Sneaker Event

February 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West may be selling his clothing items for cheap now, but his status in the fashion and streetwear game has always been attached to some big bucks. Whether it’s expensive collabs, sought-after restocks and sold-out scalps, or just expensive things in general, he has a lot of pull in the game. But the Chicago artist isn’t just commercially successful in these regards, but also very influential. Rick Ross recently commented on his Nike Air Yeezy 2 sneaker, specifically holding up his legendary Red Octobers at an event. As a sneakerhead himself, he remarked on how this design and style changed the game.

“This s**t right here was revolutionary,” Rick Ross said of Kanye West’s Nike Air Yeezy 2 sneakers. “Yeah, this was… it was revolutionary. But you know, these joints, the grey ones? I wanna say with the mauve, the pink, whatever. Yeah, yeah, you know, they was just… I had them, I wore them every day. On some just, you know, you realize how genius the artwork was after the fact.” Now that there are restocks of old Yeezy products, there’s a lot of conversation around the brand and Ye’s many fashion ventures.

Furthermore, the two “Devil In A New Dress” collaborators have a strong relationship together, and one that almost became even closer recently. Of course, a big debate right now is how much Kanye West we should be celebrating amid his antisemitic and far right ties. This caused the distribution of his collab album with Ty Dolla $ign, Vultures, to become very difficult to secure. Then, Rick Ross actually reflected on whether the duo could reach out to his Maybach Music Group for distribution, and while it clearly didn’t manifest, it would’ve been interesting to see one rapper support another.

“Imagine if Ye came and allowed MMG to distribute his new project,” he remarked on his Instagram Story back in October. “Imagine that. What’s your favorite Rick Ross, Ye collab? Imagine that. Imagine the artistic drive. And I got some amazing ideas for the Yeezy brand. Amazing ideas for the Yeezy brand! Let’s speak.” For more news and the latest updates on Yeezy, Kanye West, and Rick Ross, keep checking in with HNHH.

Bianca Censori Joins Kanye West At Milan Fashion Week With Completely New Look

February 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West and Bianca Censori recently hit up Milan Fashion Week, and they pulled up in almost their usual fare. Moreover, the Chicago artist wore grills and a large black anorak-adjacent jacket with leather pants and black sneakers. However, the Yeezy architect switched up her usual hairstyle, swapping out her golden short look for a dark-brown bob cut. As far as her fashion, she wore what looks like a black bag on her chest to match with Ye, but that’s really a one-piece that she matched with pointy pink boots. As usual, these were some pretty eclectic fits to rock that raised a lot of eyebrows.

Furthermore, this isn’t the only notable crossover with the Vultures creative that Censori had to step in for this week. Adin Ross recently issued a public apology to Kanye West after Bianca Censori apparently sent him an email to clarify some claims he made. The streamer suggested that Spotify, Apple Music, and other DSPs didn’t want to pay him for his new collab album with Ty Dolla $ign. Basically, he was trying to argue that Ye should hop on his stream because he needs the money, and apparently the rapper’s wife stepped in to set the record straight.

Still, back to the actual Milan Fashion Week look, this wasn’t entirely surprising if you checked out any footage related to the Vultures listening event in Milan before this runway show. There, Bianca Censori debuted this new cut and clips emerged of her filming Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s spectacle. They are still raking in a lot of money from streams off the album, and folks are still debating its quality and whether or not we’ll get the sequels. Given how chaotic things have been up until this point, it’s anyone’s guess.

Meanwhile, as the controversies around the “CARNIVAL” MC’s antisemitism continue to mount, it’s tough to say whether this will be a more pressing issue or a slowly fading one. Hopefully the latter option happens if he truly shows remorse, change, accountability, and responsibility for what he’s said and done. If not, then hopefully the former is what manifests one day. On that note, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Kanye West and Bianca Censori.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign’s Apple Music Bio Mentions Anthony Fantano, Fans Think It’s A Hack

February 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

As if Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign didn’t face enough issues already with releasing their album Vultures on Apple Music, it seems like someone hacked their artist bio. Either that, or they wanted to make the best troll artist description they could come up with while taking shots at the Internet’s busiest music nerd. Moreover, on their artist page on the streaming platform under the moniker ¥$, their bio is a bizarre and most likely fake Q&A excerpt that goes over some curious claims, including references to music critic Anthony Fantano of The Needle Drop. Hats off to whichever fan was cheeky enough to include this and do so successfully, or to Ye and Ty Dolla to taking very legitimate criticism of their work (particularly the former’s) with some sense of humor.

We’ll include the whole bio here in case it really is fake and Apple Music takes it down soon. Before that, this is notable because Anthony Fantano called Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s Vultures “unreviewable” for its quality and the antisemitic background behind it. That caused an absolute uproar online from Ye stans and melonheads alike. Whether you agree or not, it’s fair to say that things definitely went a little too far in folks’ responses to this.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign Raise Eyebrows With Likely Hacked Apple Music Bio

“In the artist’s words:,” Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s bio begins. “‘Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail.’ ¥$’s first music experience as a group was listening to our second single ‘Cool beat 1’ and working on the critically acclaimed song ‘Back to Me.’” Also, the bio asks the duo their three all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and it mentions The College Dropout, Vultures, and Featuring Ty Dolla $ign. Here’s the first Fantano reference, made when “answering” a question about their favorite song of theirs on the platform. “‘CARNIVAL’ is the most popular Ye Dolla song by far. As stated by the YouTube famous music reviewer Anthony Fantano stated, ‘This song is absolutely amazing and is a shining light in Ye and Ty’s respective catalogues.’” If the backlash didn’t spoil it, he never said this in the first place.

Meanwhile, here’s how the “bio” closes out. The bio “asks”: “‘What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far?’” Their “response”: “For one, being the #1 collaboration album worldwide in more countries than ever know. Secondly, being the best selling and most successful independent album on streaming platforms, and third being the first album to be known Unreviewable by Midtano.” Yikes. Check out their Apple Music page to see if it’s still there. Otherwise, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Kanye West, Ty Dolla Sign, and Anthony Fantano.

Joe Budden Thinks Kanye West Fumbled On “Vultures” Despite Other Praises

February 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Everybody’s got something to say about Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s new collaborative album Vultures. As such, it’s no surprise that one of the most popular and wide-reaching voices in hip-hop culture right now has a hot take for the masses. Moreover, The Joe Budden Podcast recently reviewed the project on their latest episode, with its main host expressing that he overall likes the LP. Specifically, he had great things to say about the production and many of the duo’s featured guests on this supposed series’ first installment. But the biggest problem that the Slaughterhouse MC had with Vultures is none other than the Chicago creative behind it.

“This is some bad rapping on here,” Joe Budden shared with his show’s co-hosts. “I’m only talking about Kanye West. Freddie Gibbs went cr*zy. All the rappers I heard went cr*zy, except for Kanye West… He’s just chanting.” Elsewhere, he added some loose thoughts on a few moments here and there, remarking that some of Vultures‘ cuts are “a little too funky” and “too Yeezus-ish,” in his opinion. Still, the New York MC had some praise for the production overall, and for other specific guest appearances.

The Joe Budden Podcast Reviews Vultures: Watch

“He showed his a** on the production,” Joe Budden posited. “His production is unbelievable on here. ‘CARNIVAL’ on down is nuts… I’m still a little thot inside. Dawg, what a creative flip of ‘Back That Azz Up’ [on ‘DO IT’]. I need to hear this in the strip club loud. I absolutely love [‘BEG FORGIVENESS’], I don’t care that this beat stays the same. This is cr*zy.” Although there are certainly many admirable qualities about Vultures, it’s hard to deny that Kanye West is not as consistent as he’s been on past releases when it comes to his own performances. This isn’t even accounting for how much you condemn or ignore his recent controversial behavior concerning antisemitism, the far right, and his peers.

Meanwhile, Vultures resulted in a big payout for Ye and Ty Dolla, so all this discussion probably means little to them. They dropped this independently and likely plan on dominating as much as they can through this method. We’ll see whether this results in an uptick in quality, or if Joe’s take on Vultures 2 will be harsher. To find out, stay up to date on HNHH for the latest on Kanye West, Ty Dolla Sign, and Joe Budden.

Kanye West Restocks YZY GAP Collab Items For $20 Each

February 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West is apparently making a lot of money off of Yeezy right now following a Super Bowl ad and a brand-new album with Ty Dolla $ign. Moreover, he recently brought back items from his YZY GAP collab on his website, selling hoodies, sweatpants, and the like for $20 each. This led to a big sales spike due to previously high-priced items getting a significant cut, so it’s natural to assume that this wouldn’t be the end of this strategy. Whether or not the Chicago creative’s extracurricular behavior and statements holds you back from copping a piece or two is a personal decision. However, it’s clearly not one that concerned a lot of fans who contributed to this success.

Furthermore, Ye’s profits from the release of Vultures, and those belonging to Ty Dolla, seem quite impressive. According to a Billboard estimate, their independent drop has resulted in almost a million in profits for them without having to give any cuts to a record label. Despite the promotional and marketing power behind the album lessening, fans still took the project to No. 1 on the publication’s albums chart. We’ll have to see just how much more success it finds in the near future.

— Donda Times (@dondatimes) February 22, 2024

Both artists had pretty cut-and-dry reactions to hitting this top spot, which points to the misleading nature of this “independent” claim. While nonetheless impressive, it’s also the kind of thing that only massive artists can pull off without hurting their pockets in the long run. Although it would be great to see more artists find more freedom within their label contracts and release limitations, it seems like only artists like Kanye West have the pockets and reach to sidestep this outright. Perhaps we can start thinking not just about how artists can reach this at an individual level, but also about how they can support each other and create wider change.

Meanwhile, do you think you’ll cop some of these new (well, restocked) YZY GAP drops? Are you heading to one of their European listening parties this week? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments section down below. Also, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Kanye West.
