For months, Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign, have promoted their joint album, Vultures. From pop-up performances and live listening events, the production duo has keep fans involved at every stage of the project. But supporters weren’t the only folks lasering in on Vultures.

Several musicians including Nicki Minaj, Backstreet Boys, Ozzy Osbourne, and the estate of Donna Summer have refused to give the okay of either their verses or sample usage. These decisions could have certainly contributed to the album’s multiple delays. In spite of the setbacks, the duo managed to drop Vultures. But not everyone can listen to the new album.

Is Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign’s Vultures Available On Spotify?

On February 9, the musicians surprised fans when the highly anticipated album was shared on streaming platforms. However, not even a day later, users began to report that Vultures could no longer be accessed. However, according to Variety, that temporary technical flub didn’t last long. A source close to the musicians told the outlet that the wrong version of the project was imported into streaming services but was quickly updated.

So, is Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s collaborative album, Vultures, available on Spotify? The simple answer is no, at least not yet. As of February 10, Vultures, is available on Apple Music and Tidal.

The Sky Is Blue, Grass Is Green, And Kanye West And Ty Dolla Sign Didn’t Release ‘Vultures’ On Time Yet Again

In January, Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign announced that their collaborative album Vultures was a three-part project, with the different volumes set to drop on February 9, March 8, and April 5. I wrote at the time, “While those dates in February, March, and April are certainly worth keeping an eye on, if nothing materializes on those days, it won’t be the world’s biggest shock.”

Given how often the release of Vultures has been delayed, that wasn’t exactly a surprising or especially insightful thing to say. Well, today is February 9, and as of this post, the first volume of Vultures is not available on streaming services, even after Ye and Ty’s listening event last night. There’s still plenty of time left for West and Ty to release it today, but given that new albums tend to drop at midnight, it feels likely that Vultures has once again been delayed and the first volume will ultimately not be released on February 9.

West is a trending topic on X (formerly Twitter) this morning, with users complaining or making jokes about Vultures not being out yet. One user, for example, shared a photo of a clown using a computer and wrote, “How I look checking Spotify to see if Kanye West dropped Vultures.”

Last week, Kanye West (who legally changed his name to Ye in October 2021) made a surprise appearance at Travis Scott’s Utopia — Circus Maximus Tour and performed several classics from his discography. He was also joined by Bump and Ty Dolla Sign to perform “Vultures,” the title track of Ye and Ty Dolla Sign’s forthcoming joint album-turned-three-part-project.

As is the case with most everything Ye does, the Vultures rollout has been clunky, including several delays, But it appears that Vultures is set to release as most recently announced – Vultures Vol. 1 due out this Friday, February 9, the second volume on March 8, and the third volume on April 5 — because listening events are scheduled throughout this week.

First, they announced a Vultures listening event at Chicago’s United Center — which Ye said sold out in seven minutes — for Thursday, February 8. And Wednesday, February 7, Ye posted “VULTURES UBS ARENA NEW YORK 02 09 2024″ to his Instagram Story.

Kanye West Claims He Is Being Blackballed By Major Concert Venues For Obvious Reasons

After several delays, it looks like Kanye West is finally dropping his Ty Dolla Sign collaboration album, Vultures this Friday (February 8) — maybe. But either way, it appears that Ye is having trouble booking venues. In a clip shared to social media, Ye expressed frustration after having supposedly been blackballed by the live music industry.

“We just sold out the United Center in seven minutes and I just wanted to express to everybody out there to see if anybody can help with this,” Ye said in his Instagram Story. “It’s the only arena I had access to in the past year. And when I call, people say there’s no availables for me and you know why that is. If there’s anybody out there that can help with this, please do.”

As for “you know why that is,” Ye is likely referring to his various antisemitism controversies (or his various non-antisemitism controversies).

In following Stories, Ye shared that he reached out to rapper Freddie Gibbs for help. Shortly after, Gibbs informed Ye that several venues across the world are supposedly interested in booking him.

Gibbs shared a spreadsheet of venues that supposedly expressed interest in booking him. Venues in Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York City are evidently wanting to add him to their lineup. Internationally, it looks like venues in Cairo, Dubai, and London may book him soon as well. It appears that if Ye is to tour soon, the tour will kick off this June, and go until 2025.

You can see details of Ye’s and Gibbs’ chat above.

Who Does Ty Dolla Sign Play In ‘Power Book III: Raising Kanan?’

Ty Dolla Sign has had a prominent rap career, but he also is jumping into the television world again. Fans of STARZ’s Power Book III: Raising Kanan series might be surprised when he pops up on their screens during episode nine, which airs today, February 2.

Here’s what to know about Ty Dolla Sign’s appearance in the Power franchise.

Who Does Ty Dolla Sign Play In ‘Power Book III: Raising Kanan?’

During the recent “Home To Roost” episode of Power Book III: Raising Kanan, Ty Dolla Sign appeared as the character Clarence “Krystal Light” TK. He helps Ronnie (Grantham Coleman) as his “most trusted soldier” who is “always ready for a gunfight,” according to Complex.

In a clip that was exclusively shared with the publication earlier this week, Clarence watches Ronnie and Gabriel Ayala (Joseph Melendez) get into a fight, which was sparked by the death of the latter character’s cousin, Juliana Ayala (Rosal Colon).

Also, there could be future tension over Ty’s character of Clarence down the line, based on who he is aligned with. Earlier in the season, Ronnie killed his brother Unique, who was played by Joey Badass.

Before appearing on Raising Kanan, Ty Dolla Sign played himself on Insecure, according to his IMDb — so hopefully he gets to do more acting work on the series.

Kanye West And Ty Dolla Sign’s ‘Vultures’ Is A Three-Part Project Now And There Are New Release Dates (If You Even Trust Those Anymore)

When will Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign release Vultures, their collaborative project? That’s hard to say with any level of certainty! It’s been delayed a number of times now, and at this point, it’s hard to trust any release date West offers. Still, we have a new one, as well as an apparent shift in the nature of the project.

On Instagram today (January 23), West shared a new trailer for the album. At the end of it comes the reveal that Vultures is now a three-part project, which is currently scheduled to have a staggered release. The first volume is set to drop on February 9, the second on March 8, and the third on April 5.

Of course, as aforementioned, a Kanye West release date should probably be taken with a grain of salt. While those dates in February, March, and April are certainly worth keeping an eye on, if nothing materializes on those days, it won’t be the world’s biggest shock.

This news follows recent reports that West recorded a 40-minute apology video for his recent incidents of antisemitism. The publication noted, “We’re told in no uncertain terms, Ye was ‘rambling’ and at times it was impossible to decode what he was saying.” The video is apparently expected to be shared before the release of Vultures.

When Does Kanye West And Ty Dolla Sign’s ‘Vultures’ Album Come Out?

After rumors circulated that Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign were having difficulty securing a distributor for their joint album, fans became nervous. The duo postposing their previously announced multi-stadium listening parties certainly didn’t help. However, on December 11, all faith was restored when clips from the musicians’ rave in Miami began to circulate across social media.

When does Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s album Vultures come out?

(Update: On January 23, 2024, West shared a new trailer for the album, which revealed that Vultures is now a three-part project. The first volume is set for release on February 9, the second on March 8, and the third on April 5.)

(Update: After the album wasn’t released on December 15, it was reportedly given a new release date of December 31.)

According to the Independent, the work is slated to be released this Friday, December 15. The outlet reports that the date was announced by West yesterday onstage at the Vultures rave preview session. Neither West nor Ty Dolla Sign has echoed this on their personal social media pages. But they have shared teasers of songs from the album as well as the full tracklist.

The list of featured appearances on the album remains a mystery as well. Based on the listening party, fans believe Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown, Kodak Black, and Lil Durk are on the project.

Kanye West And Ty Dolla Sign Reportedly No Longer Have A Release Date For ‘Vultures’ Because Of Course It Got Delayed Again

Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign‘s collaborative album Vultures may take a little longer to arrive. Originally announced last year, Vultures has seen numerous delays. Its most recent release date was slated for January 12, but it looks like listeners are going to have to wait a bit longer.

Yesterday, West’s frequent collaborator Malik Yusef shared a photo of Ty, featuring the singer recording vocals for the album, per HipHopDX.

A fan commented on the post, asking, “what song is he recording for?” Yusef replied, “all of em.”

The same fan asked if Ty is “redoing verses or making new ones?” Yusef answered: “both.”

Earlier that day, Forbes reported that “a representative for West explained that the album is not coming out on that date, and, for the moment, doesn’t have a release date.”

Yusef also weighed in on this, when a fan asked “Is that Forbes article legit?” The former GOOD Music rapper simply replied, “Naw.”

Though it’s not clear which parts of the article to which Malik was referring. At the time of writing, neither West nor Ty have issued a direct update on Vultures.
