Kanye West Fan Appears To Leak “GUN TO MY HEAD” With Kid Cudi Onto Spotify

by

It seems that once again Kanye West is dealing with another leak. At least that’s what it looks like to us. On X (formerly Twitter), there’s a single tweet from a user by the name of MikeyPy_ who has an allegedly real Spotify link to a prized collaboration. It is Kid Cudi, Kanye West, and Ty Dolla $ign’s “GUN TO MY HEAD”, which was included as a deluxe track for VULTURES 2. When you click on it, it takes you to the 2:16 track and it has over 19,000 plays. For a track this coveted by fans, the streaming numbers are way too low. Where there appears to be some possible accuracy here is when it was released.

Kanye West put out “GUN TO MY HEAD”, “BELIEVER”, and “DRUNK” on the YZY website on August 8 and made them available to buy up until midnight or August 9. When you look at it that way, that Spotify drop date kind of makes sense. What also makes this potentially true is that it was released under YZY and has the official accounts of Kid Cudi and ¥$ attached to it instead of some random user on the Spotify platform. In that same breath, it doesn’t make sense as to why we are just getting this allegedly true announcement today.

Kid Cudi Reacted To Kanye West Dropping “GUN TO MY HEAD” A Few Weeks Ago

There was already some confusion surrounding “GUN TO MY HEAD”, especially on Kid Cudi’s side. The on-and-off collaborator of Ye’s found out via a Twitter Q&A with fans in late August and was visibly shocked. After talking about it for a little bit back and forth, Cudi said he was going to discuss the possibility with Kanye about getting it on DSPs. Maybe this supposed leak is the result of that? No one really knows, as we are extremely skeptical overall.

What are your thoughts on this Kanye West fan/hacker putting the Kid Cudi collab “GUN TO MY HEAD” on Spotify? Do you think this one and the other deluxe cuts will eventually land on DSPs any time soon? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Kid Cudi and Kanye West. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Kanye West Officially Releases Long Lost “CAN U BE” With Travis Scott & Ty Dolla $ign

by

Even after four digital deluxe versions of VULTURES 2 were uploaded to YEEZY.com, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign had one more surprise up their sleeves. In general, ¥$ have been feeding fans past recordings from older albums so far during this trilogy. But the second installment is living up to that even more so. Last night, the controversial duo dropped three new songs in the forms of “BELIEVER”, “DRUNK”, with Peso Pluma and Kodak Black, and “GUN TO MY HEAD” with Kid Cudi. But Kanye West wanted to treat his most loyal supporters with the official release “CAN U BE”.

This track is perhaps the most sought after of the bunch, as it was recorded during The Life Of Pablo sessions. It used to be referred to as “Pressure”, which you can find on Soundcloud and YouTube. This updated rendition clocks in at around 2:30 minutes and now includes an additional verse from Ty Dolla $ign. The track famously incorporates a flip of Marvin Gaye and Diana Ross’s “Stop, Look, Listen (to Your Heart)”, perhaps just another reason why this track was highly requested.

Fans Buy Out “CAN U BE” Deluxe Version Of Kanye & Ty’s VULTURES 2

Genius, as usual, as some pretty interesting facts about “CAN U BE”. In their annotation, they share that this is a song that Kanye West was not a big fan of. Because of this, he stopped working on in it in 2017. However, his fans, as we have stated, have adored this record since it was first leaked. That brings us to our next interesting tidbit. The leaking community valued this track so highly that they tried to put it up for auction. Interestingly, it would take quite a bid of time before bidders got involved. Eventually, it would be sold for an alleged sticker price of $25,000 and the files would be released to the public in May of this year. Finally, “CAN U BE” is a fan given name, thanks to Ye’s repetitive chorus.

So, there is some speculation that fans released this and not Ye. It did make into onto streaming platforms briefly before being taken down and included on the YEEZY.com site for $5.00. The “CAN U BE” version of VULTURES 2 is now sold out. However, there are YouTube accounts reuploading it for those who didn’t get to purchase it. What are your thoughts on Kanye West releasing “CAN U BE” with Travis Scott and Ty Dolla $ign? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.
