Ye and Ty Dolla $ign have reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100. Their collaborative, stadium-sounding anthem, “Carnival,” featuring Rich the Kid and Playboi Carti, is the new No. 1 single.

“Carnival” now makes Ye the first rap artist to have a No. 1 in three decades (the 2000s, ‘10s and ‘20s).

According to Luminate, “Carnival” secures the 1,165th No. 1 spot in the 65-year history of the Hot 100. It amassed 33.7 million streams (up 4%), garnered 3.9 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 85%), and sold 3,000 downloads (up 15%) during the tracking week of March 1-7.

With “Carnival,” Ye claims his fifth Hot 100 chart-topper, following hits like Katy Perry’s “E.T.” (featuring Ye), which spent five weeks at No. 1 starting in April 2011, among others. Ty Dolla $ign previously led the Hot 100 for a week in June 2018 as featured on Post Malone’s “Psycho.”

It is the first No. 1 record for Rich the Kid and Playboi Carti.

Additionally, “Carnival” maintains its reign for a second week atop both the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts, utilizing a similar multimetric methodology as the Hot 100.

Meanwhile, Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ‘Em” slips to No. 5 after two weeks at the Hot 100’s summit, although it continues its dominance atop the multimetric Hot Country Songs chart for a fourth consecutive week.

Kanye West Reunites with Former Manager John Monopoly to Plan World Tour

Kanye West has reunited with his former manager, John Monopoly.

According to Billboard, Monopoly discovered Ye in the early ’90s and worked alongside Gee Roberson and Kyambo “Hip-Hop” Joshua in the Roc-a-Fella days.

Ye announced and saluted Monopoly during a Vultures private party in L.A. The two will now tackle putting together a world tour, hoping for a launch in the forthcoming months. It would be Ye’s first tour since 2016’s Saint Pablo Tour.

In related news, don’t look for Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s Vultures 2 to hit streaming. Ye once again spoke with the YeFanactics Instagram page and revealed he agrees with James Blake sentiment that streaming “devalues our music.”

“Was talking with the team about how to release the next album. Like James Blake said streaming devalues our music. We sell albums on Yeezy.com,” Kanye wrote. “I got 20 million Instagram followers. When five percent of my followers buy an album. That’s one million albums sold That’s 300K more than the biggest album last year.

“We sold 1 million items on Yeezy.com on Super Bowl Sunday so we know it’s possible. How do you feel about us not streaming and only selling the album digitally.”

As fans await Vultures 2, Ty Dolla $ign revealed the cover, which holds sentimental meaning.

Responding to a fan online, Ty revealed that the cover features him “holding a picture of my brother Tc, FYI.”

According to HipHopDX, Ty Dolla Sign’s brother, Jabreal Muhammad, known as Big TC, is serving life for a murder that he says he did not commit.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign’s “CARNIVAL” Slides Into The No. 1 Slot On Billboard Hot 100

by

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign have been pretty nonchalant around the success surrounding VULTURES 1. It went number one on the Billboard Hot 200, albeit for only one week. However, it was still very impressive, especially since one of the pillars of streaming, Apple Music, did not go out of their way to really promote the album. Outside of James Blake’s recent comments, it be another reason why Ye is leaning towards dropping VULTURES 2 on his website for $20. Now, Kanye West and his partner Ty can casually celebrate once more after Billboard announced that “CARNIVAL” will be going number one.

The wild and chaotic rager featuring Rich The Kid and Playboi Carti has been steadily making its way up the charts. In fact, it already hit the top spot on the TikTok Billboard Top 50 after jumping four placements. “CARNIVAL” will officially hold down number one when the list updates tomorrow, March 12. Furthermore, the explosive collaboration will take over Beyonce’s country hit “TEXAS HOLD ‘EM,” which had its reign for just seven days.

Additionally, this is a big accomplishment for everyone involved, especially Kanye West. This is his first song to reach the mountain top since his contributions to the alien-like Katy Perry track “E.T.” from 2011. Also worth noting is the fact that Ye is now the only rapper in history to have a number one record in three decades (2000s, 2010s, and 2020s). Of course, Ty Dolla $ign, Playboi Carti, and Rich The Kid, have plenty to be proud of. For the L.A. artist, this is his second with his first being on Post Malone’s “Psycho.” For the featured guests, this is both their first time being this high on the Hot 100 chart.

What are your thoughts on Kanye West, Ty Dolla $ign, Rich The Kid, and Playboi Carti going number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with “CARNIVAL?” Is this song good enough to reach this spot, why or why not? Who had the best performance on the track? Is it still in your rotation? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Ye and Ty Dolla $ign Release Trailer for "Vultures" Video and Announces Three Release Dates

Today (March 8), the second edition of the Vultures album was supposed to be delivered. In traditional Kanye West fashion, the project is late.

The Ye fan account, YeFanatics, hit the rapper to ask about the project. “We in the Lab,” Ye responded.

But what’s the rush anyway? Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign have gone back-to-back on top of the Billboard 200. Hitting X, Ty had a swift message: “Not the 2.”

Billboard notes the album will take the top spot behind 75,000 equivalent album units moved in the second week. Vultures 1 is now the first album from West to spend multiple weeks at the top spot since his Watch the Throne album with JAY-Z.

During the tracking week ending on Feb. 22, Vultures 1 accumulated 75,000 units. Of these, 72,000 units were attributed to SEA (streaming equivalent albums), reflecting a decrease of 44% and totaling approximately 95.25 million on-demand official streams for the album’s songs. Meanwhile, album sales contributed 2,000 units, experiencing an 89% decline, and TEA (track equivalent albums) units accounted for 1,000 units, down by 25%.

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s Vultures 1 album has taken over the Billboard Hot 100. Last week, all 16 tracks from the album have made the chart.

The highest charting single was “Carnival,” debuting at No. 3. “Fuk Sumn” hit No. 23.

Kanye West And Ty Dolla $ign Will Have To Tour Without The Help Of Live Nation

by

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s new album VULTURES 1 has performed surprisingly well. Given all of the controversy it sparked and debates over whether or not some of the songs could even legally be allowed on streaming, its performance is significant. It debuted at the top spot on the Billboard 200 holding off Yeat’s new album 2093. Every single song from the album also landed on the Hot 100 in its first tracking week. Four songs from the album remain on the Hot 100 this week. “BACK TO ME” at #97, “FUK SUMN” at #82, “BURN” at #63, and “CARNIVAL” at #2. “CARNIVAL” is expected to have a resurgence next week and challenge Beyonce’s “TEXAS HOLD EM” for the top spot.

Ye and Ty have had the chance to play the album live at various listening parties in the US and Europe. The pair also have a planned performance at this year’s Rolling Loud in Los Angeles next week. But as far as taking the album on a major tour, that could be difficult. That’s because Live Nation and AEG, two of the biggest tour promoters in the country who are nearly essential go going on tour, are refusing to work with them. It likely has to do with West’s past antisemitic comments and the controversial lyrics throughout the record. According to Hits Daily Double West’s agent is still trying to set up a tour without the promoter, but it’s a tall task.

Before their performance at Rolling Loud next week, Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign are hosting another listening party. That will take place on Sunday, March 10 in Phoenix. Fans are hoping that VULTURES 2 still comes out on time later this week. The original announcement that the album was being split into three volumes included part two dropping this Friday. While the pair have seemingly been working on music, it’s unclear if they’ve got an entire new album ready.

What do you think of the biggest concert promoters in America refusing to work with Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign? Do you think they’ll still be able to pull off a tour without them? Let us know in the comment section below.

Ty Dolla $ign Reveals “VULTURES” Listening Experience In San Francisco, Leaving Fans Asking About “VULTURES 2”

by

Just hours after Kanye West announced a listening event for VULTURES 1 in Phoenix on March 10, Ty Dolla $ign has more news for fans. The “sidekick” revealed on his Instagram that one more location has been booked two days before their Rolling Loud performance. VULTURES will now be coming to the Bay Area, aka San Francisco, for a “listening experience” at the Chase Center. Of course, that is the new home of the Golden State Warriors. However, this news has fans biting their nails.

The reason for that is because VULTURES 2 has had little to no news around it. Fans in the comments section of Ty’s post are fearing for the worst, as many die-hard supporters of Ye do. “Can’t Wait For Vultures 2 Next Year 🗣,” one person writes. Another chimes in, “so vol 2 got pushed back, great 🥰”

It will certainly be interesting to see how this all plays out in the next 48 hours or so. We have gotten very minimal updates on the progress of the album. French Montana is one of the few who have commented on the record. He provided people with a behind the scenes look video of the two creators working on some of the tracks.

What are your thoughts on Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign bringing a VULTURES 1 concert to San Francisco? Will they drop VULTURES 2 this Friday, why or why not? Are you going to attend this show coming up, or going to their Rolling Loud performance? Is the album still in your rotation? Is it the album of the year so far, why or why not?

Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign Will Perform “VULTURES 1” In Phoenix: Details

We are just days away from Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign releasing VULTURES 2. If they follow their own schedule, which is a huge “if,” then we should be getting the sequel on Friday March 8. However, there has not been too much to speak of surrounding it outside of Timbaland and French Montana’s updates. So, who really knows if they will live up to their promise and follow through. Especially after they waited until February 10 to give us the inaugural tape. But, we do have some news regarding another “listening event.” Per Ye’s IG Story, VULTURES 1 will be heading to Phoenix, Arizona on March 10.

The album’s creators have performed it for a few different locations already. Just about a week or two ago, the dynamic duo went to Europe, specifically Bologna and Milan, Italy and Paris, France. Of course, VULTURES 1 got its start being played in the U.S. such as Chicago, New York, Miami, and Las Vegas. Now, its Phoenix’s turn as the show might heat up the desert even more.

French Montana Shares Behind The Scenes Footage Of Kanye West Working On “Vultures 2”

by

Last month, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign finally released their long-awaited new album VULTURES 1. The project was originally just supposed to consist of one album but was expanded for a full three-volume experience. Because West has been known to promise projects and never formally deliver before, fans are skeptical that all three promised projects would be released. But they recently got some promising news that Ty and West are, in fact, still hard at work. That came from a video shared by French Montana earlier this week.

“Back to work @tydollasign @ye Vultures 2 coming soon” the caption over the video reads. That video itself is a relatively short clip that really just shows the three in the studio, though the implication is that they’re cooking up some new material. It also doesn’t confirm whether or not Montana is due to appear on the project or is just around for the recording sessions. VULTURES 2 was originally announced for March 8, but with work on the project still seeming very much in progress it’s unclear if they will make that date. Part three of the trilogy was originally announced for an early April release. Check out the video of the trio working on VULTURES 2 below.

French Montana In The Studio With Kanye West And Ty Dolla $ign

French Montana is fresh off the release of a new album of his own. Mac & Cheese 5 dropped earlier this month but was met with backlash from fans. Much of that was because of the numerous releases he shared to streaming platforms in an attempt to generate higher numbers. That culminated in a massive 126-song “Versions” edition of the project that was widely mocked online.

After initial projections of the new album debuting as high as number 3, it ended up debuting at number 14 after its first week. What do you think of French Montana being in the studio with Ty Dolla $ign and Kanye West? Are you hoping that he appears on VULTURES 2 when it comes out? Let us know in the comment section below.
