Kanye West Shares “Vultures 2” Release Date With Baby Keem, But It Was Actually A Fan Page

by

Kanye West is certainly no stranger to delays, but his latest broken promise has fans more anxious than ever to hear his new album. Back in January, Ye announced the release dates of all three volumes of his joint project with Ty Dolla Sign, Vultures. The first volume dropped only a day late. Of course, this left listeners hopeful that the others would arrive mostly on time.

Clearly, that hasn’t been the case. Vultures 2 was previously expected to drop on March 8, per Ye’s aforementioned schedule, but fans have yet to hear it. On the bright side, he seems to have confirmed the new release date in some recent DMs with one of his collaborators, Baby Keem. Unfortunately, however, he wasn’t actually speaking with Baby Keem at all.

Kanye West Says Vultures 2 Arrives May 3

In screenshots of the DMs, Ye answers a Baby Keem fan page’s request for the release date. “We in the lab now with it. Gonna release in May. May 3rd,” he wrote. “When can we go in,” Ye also asked, “Should we do Praise God 2mrw.” By the looks of things, Ye thought he was chatting with the real Baby Keem. While it’s certainly an unconventional way to reveal a release date, fans are thrilled nonetheless to finally have their questions answered.

It’s also pretty far out from when the album was originally expected, which will undoubtedly leave some listeners disappointed. After all, the Chicago MC just told supporters that there are only some “final tweaks” to be made before Vultures 2 is complete. This got them thinking it would arrive in no time. Either way, fans aren’t exactly surprised, and will be grateful to hear it at all. What do you think of Kanye West accidentally sharing the release date of Vultures 2 with a Baby Keem fan?

Seven songs are currently projected to be on the tape with cuts like “Bnyx Da Reaper,” “Run,” “No Time,” and etc.

ScHoolboy Q Announces New Album “Blue Lips”: Release Date, Tracklist & Reactions

by

Well, it’s finally time. After four years of teasing, a lot of hard work, and an avalanche of fan anticipation, ScHoolboy Q has finally and officially announced his next studio album: Blue Lips. Moreover, he did so through a teaser trailer that shows a group of colleagues, on car and on foot, arriving at a street alley with the project’s tracklist written out on a building’s wall. By visiting the TDE rapper’s website, you can see a counter that lets you know exactly how long you will have to wait for this LP to drop. Fortunately, it’s not a long wait at all, and fans can pre-save the full-length on their preferred streaming service, preview merch, and sign up for updates on the site, too.

Furthermore, Blue Lips will release on March 1, and the teaser indicates that it will comprise of 17 tracks or so, if each title is a line long. If not, then it’ll be shorter, but either way, there are certain titles that really caught fans’ eyes. For example, ScHoolboy Q fans made a ruckus over the song “Blue Slides,” given the apparent reference to Mac Miller’s debut album Blue Slide Park from 2011. Die-hards are hoping that this includes a feature from the Philly MC given their close relationship, but the prospect of being let down if it doesn’t appear isn’t enough to dissuade listeners’ excitement for this project.

ScHoolboy Q’s Blue Lips Teaser: Watch

As far as what we can gain musically from this teaser, there’s no confirmation on whether the featured song will appear on Blue Lips‘ tracklist in some form. Perhaps it’s a preview of a sample, an original instrumental, or just a really good, tender, and dramatic soul song that ScHoolboy Q wanted to shout out. Regardless of which is the correct answer, it sets the stage for a lush, possibly nostalgic, and emotive experience. Whenever the West Coast MC decides to drop, it’s for a very good reason, so there’s a lot fans can chew on here already. Speaking of which, check out some fan reactions down below.

Fans React To New Album Announcement

Meanwhile, this is how the 37-year-old defined “blue lips” in this teaser. “adj. 1. Speechless, especially as the temporary result of shock or some strong emotion. 2. Shocked, speechless, or embarrassed. n. 1. a particular attitude toward or way of regarding something. 2. c*on. v. 1. become fully aware of (something) as a fact; understand clearly.” What do you think about this preview, these definitions, and how they might play into his past work?

by

Kanye West has confirmed that Vultures will be released on December 31, according to a statement received by XXL. This comes after the album, a collaborative effort with Ty Dolla $ign, was made available for pre-order on iTunes. Additionally, the album has been delayed several times and was meant to drop this past Friday. However, fans instead received news of a 10-minute rant delivered by West at a star-studded listening party.

Furthermore, the rant took aim at the Jewish community, Adidas, and individuals like JAY-Z and Drake. “N-gga just cause I had a car, n-gga. F-ck everybody, n-gga. That’s what I’m trying to say to you n-ggas right f-cking now, n-gga. Drake, this is what you been waiting for. Jay-Z, this is what you been waiting for. Adidas, this is what you been waiting for. Kim, this is what you been waiting for. n-ggas be hanging around these n-ggas for the money on some Mike Rubin sh-t,” Kanye said in part.
