The newest details on the album come after Kanye and Ty Dolla Sign hosted a “rave” event to promote the project on Monday night in Miami. Offset, Freddie Gibbs, Lil Durk, Kodak Black, Chris Brown, and West’s daughter, North, among others, were in attendance. During the event, Ye rocked a hood in the style of his Yeezus single “Black Skinhead.” North also performed a verse on the track “Slide.” She rapped: “It’s gonna get messy, just just bless me bless me / It’s your bestie, miss miss Westie.”

Presave Kanye & Ty Dolla Sign’s “Vultures”

Kanye and Ty Dolla Sign have been promoting their upcoming collaborative album for weeks at this point. Back in November, they shared the lead single, which is featured as the title track on Vultures. Ye dealt with backlash for his lyrics on the track after rapping, “How I’m antisemitic, I just f—ed a Jewish b—h,” referencing his myriad of antisemitism accusations. Other songs to make the cut include “New Body,” with Nicki Minaj. Be on the lookout for further updates on Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s Vultures on HotNewHipHop.

Kanye West “Vultures:” Backstreet Boys Never Gave Full Permission For “Everybody Sample”

by

Kanye West is previewing his new album with Ty Dolla Sign right now. Overall, the album is called Vultures and it promises to be a huge release right as the year comes to a close. In fact, it is supposed to come out on Friday, December 15th. This is an ambitious release date given the fact that Ye is known for delaying his albums. However, last night, he held the listening party for the album, and there were a ton of huge features. For instance, we heard tracks from Lil Baby, Freddie Gibbs, and yes, North West.

One of the songs that seems to be getting a lot of attention is the intro track “Everybody.” This is a song that contains a pretty obvious sample of “Everybody” by the Backstreet Boys. Since debuting the song, many fans have thought about just how expensive this sample must have been. Well, it turns out that Kanye doesn’t even know. According to TMZ, Ye was never given full clearance for the sample. Simply put, he probably will not be able to release this by Friday.

Kanye West – “Everybody”

Overall, things could absolutely change by then. However, it is going to take a lot of convincing to get this cleared. After all, it is an iconic sample, and Ye is not someone that a lot of people want to be associated with. Moreover, with the album dropping in just three days, the pressure is on. It could very well be a situation where Ye just scraps the song entirely. Ultimately, this would be a huge detriment to his album and a significant portion of its marketing. Only time will tell whether or not Kanye will eventually get that stamp of approval.

Let us know what you think of the Kanye West album so far, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Kanye West Poses With Playboi Carti After The Latter Shows Up Late To Listening Party

by

Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign are gearing up to drop a brand-new album this Friday, December 15th. Overall, it still remains to be seen whether or not the album will actually drop. Of course, Ye has a history of delaying his projects. Typically, he will debut an unfinished album and then continue working on it for months. He has done this numerous times before, and consequently, fans are very skeptical that he will drop. Having said that, he seems pretty serious this time around.

Last night, Kanye held a listening party event in Miami. There were a ton of stars who showed up for the party. Lil Baby, Kodak Black, Freddie Gibbs, and Offset were all there. We heard tracks with Baby and Gibbs, while even getting a verse from North West. Needless to say, this is a project with a ton of big names. One person who is also on the album is Playboi Carti. Unfortunately, he did not make it to the listening party on top. That said, he did eventually get there, as evidenced by the picture below.

In the photo, you can see that Carti is wearing a unique outfit, at least for him. Furthermore, Ye is wearing his black KKK mask that was a fixture from last night’s performance. Overall, it was a very interesting look for both of these men. It would have been nice for Carti to have been at the party, but alas, Carti has never been one for timeliness. With Carti teasing new music quite a bit as of late, it will be interesting to see how his feature sounds. We could probably expect his new deep vocal register to make an appearance.

Is Kanye West Going On A World Tour In 2024?

by

With Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign hosting a listing for their upcoming joint album Vultures, fans have begun speculating about whether or not the album will be accompanied by a tour. Ever since Kanye’s antisemitism scandal, he hasn’t exactly had potential sponsors leaping at the chance to work with him (especially with the contemporary political climate). But that hasn’t stopped a variety of profiles on Twitter (which still says “Twitter” in the URL so shoo with all that “X” talk) from posting screenshots of a purported “merch site” listing concert tickets for a Vultures World Tour.

The site has supposedly been deactivated, but at this point, premature announcements and half-baked ideas are par for the course for Kanye, who gave a quarter-hearted attempt at running for president in 2020, slapped together the last few rus of his YZY Supply fashion line, was apparently a terrible business partner at Adidas, rarely showing up for meetings and playing porn for other attendees if he ever did show up, and announcing a “worldwide listening event” for Vultures, only to scale it down to a “rave” in Miami when he finally realized that no venues at the scale he envisioned want to work with him anymore. Because, again, he’s said some truly wild stuff — like “praising Hitler” wild — in his efforts to be an “edgy” artiste. Welcome to the edge, I guess.

If you’re one of those people who is only too happy to get scammed by Ye — again — in the interest of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy nostalgia, keep an eye out. I’m sure there are still some backyards or skinhead rallies or something he can book.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign‘s “Vultures” Artwork Traced To 19th Century Painter Caspar David Friedrich

by

The origins of Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s cover artwork for their new collaborative album, Vultures, can be traced back to the renowned 19th century painter, Caspar David Friedrich. Playboi Carti shared the cover in a post on his Instagram Story, earlier this week. It appears to feature a reworking of Friedrich’s Landscape with Graves.

Friedrich is best known for his rich landscapes in which he typically silhouettes a protagonist against a vast backdrop. His most notable works include Chalk Cliffs on Rügen (1818) and Wanderer above the Sea of Fog (1818).

On Tuesday, Kanye and Ty Dolla Sign reportedly planned to put on a “Vultures Rave” at Sawgrass Mills outside of Miami, Florida. However, a spokesperson denied the rumor while speaking with the Miami New Times. “No, there’s no event, no performance,” they said. “It’s false.” Additionally, the mall’s management echoed the same sentiments” “Rumors have been circulating that a Kanye West listening party will take place at Sawgrass Mills tomorrow. This is simply not true.”

Kanye West is easily one of the biggest artists in the entire world and while most people aren’t big on him right now, that could change very soon. Despite his controversies, new albums typically get fans excited. Overall, this is not a great reflection on society, but we digress. Right now, Ye is in the midst of his rollout for the new album Vultures. This is a project that fans have been excited about for quite some time now. Furthermore, it is a collaborative project with Ty Dolla $ign which makes it that much more exciting, at least potentially.

Last night, West had a massive listening party in Miami for Art Basel. This is something that fans had been anticipating ever since Ye made his way to the city. Ultimately, the listening party did, in fact, happen last night. Consequently, a ton of fans showed up and Ye put on a show. As you will see in the videos below, Ye brought out a ton of guests. For instance, you could find Freddie Gibbs, Lil Baby, and even North West there. As it turns out, they all have features on the upcoming album.

As for West’s attire, there was one point where he could be seen wearing a black KKK mask. Overall, this imagery is fairly jarring although it is par for the course with some of the things he has been doing as of late. As for the features themselves, the idea of Freddie Gibbs on a Ye album is most definitely exciting. It is going to be interesting to hear this song in its entirety on Friday. However, as some fans pointed out, there were songs that sounded unfinished, which means some delays could be on the horizon.

Only time will tell whether or not the album ends up dropping as promised. If it doesn’t, then Ye will have a lot to answer for. No matter what, this is a unique rollout that fans are curious about. Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Kanye West Reveals Release Date For Ty Dolla $ign Collab Album, “Vultures”

by

Kanye West is someone who has elicited a ton of controversy over the years. However, he remains someone that people want to hear from, no matter what. Despite his anti-Semitic ramblings, he still has fans, and they want new music, Over the last little while, Ye has been constructing some of that music. While in Italy and Saudi Arabia, the legendary MC and producer has been working with none other than Ty Dolla $ign. They have a new collaborative album called Vultures on the way, and we have already heard the lead single.

While out at Art Basel in Miami, Ye seemingly revealed the tracklist. There are some huge features here, and we may even get the song “New Body.” This information definitely has fans excited and for good reason. Well, last night, Ye decided to give some fans even more good news. In the video below, you can see that it was made clear that the new album is actually going to be dropping this Friday, December 15th. This is massive, and it will easily be the biggest release before the end of the year.

However, fans should probably temper their expectations here, at least just a little bit. Ye is notorious for not making good on his promises as it pertains to dropping albums. He is always delaying things and taking a few weeks off to finish up some stuff. Furthermore, some fans noted that the songs he was previewing didn’t sound finished. Not to mention, Mike Dean will not be working with Ye on this, which means he won’t have that expert sound design to help move the process along. At this point, it is unclear if he can deliver on his promise.

Kanye West Shows Off New Vultures Logo Which Is Either A Nod To Albania Or Something More Sinister

by

Kanye West is someone who has been embroiled in a ton of controversy over the last few years. Overall, last year was particularly bad for him, albeit self-inflicted. He went on numerous right-wing talk shows and spouted Nazi talking points. Although people like Alex Jones even called him out for Hitler worship, Ye continued to act deranged. Eventually, he went away for a while, and now, he is spending his time overseas, working on a new album with the likes of Ty Dolla $ign.

In fact, Ye dropped a song with Ty Dolla $ign, simply called “Vultures.” The song hasn’t had much staying power, however, some fans quite enjoyed it. Now, it appears as though the song has its very own merch. In the Instagram post below, a fan could be seen engaging with Ye out in public. The artist could be seen wearing a logo that said “Vultures” and it included the depiction of a double-headed eagle. As HipHopDX pointed out, this could have been a nod to Drake who wore something kind of like this in the “Polar Opposites” video.

Of course, this is also the logo on the flag of Albania. That said, there is also a pretty sinister interpretation here. The two-headed eagle was used by Nazi Germany as its coat of arms back in the day. Given Kanye’s love of Nazi imagery and ideology, it is easy to see why someone would jump to this conclusion first. Ye has not been deserving of the benefit of the doubt, but at the end of the day, we could be wrong. Perhaps it is just an image that he likes and that he feels fits the style of the song. Who knows at this point?

Let us know what you think of this new logo, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will always be sure to keep you informed on all of your favorite aritsts.

Kanye West Catches Heat From The ADL Over “Vultures” Lyrics

by

Kanye West is someone who has consistently gotten himself into a bit of trouble thanks to his personal comments. Overall, this has been a problem for a long time with him. Last year, it truly got to its worst point thanks to his rampant anti-semitism. This turned out to be a breaking point for a lot of people. After all, he was hanging out with self-proclaimed white supremacists, all while perpetuating evil stereotypes. However, he is still making music, and there are fans who want to hear it.

For instance, he just dropped a new song called “Vultures.” In this song, he delivers some bizarre lyrics about Jewish women. Overall, the lyrics feel very out of place and they were very clearly a way to garner a reaction. Fans were not super thrilled with the lyrics, and as you can imagine, a lot of anti-hate groups didn’t like it either. According to TMZ, the Anti-Defamation League has come out, saying “At a time of rising antisemitism worldwide, it’s disgusting to see Kanye once again use his platform to spew Jew hatred.”

Moreover, the American Jewish Committee is also speaking out about Kanye. In their eyes, this is just another sad attempt in which Ye is denigrating Jewish people. “To fuel the flames of antisemitism and promote such bile to his millions of followers, especially at this fraught and dangerous time for the Jewish community, is unforgivable,” the group said. At this point, it feels like Ye just won’t stop. He knows that these kinds of comments add to the rollout, even if people are offended. Hopefully, he wises up, sooner or later.

Kanye West & Chris Brown Dancing To “Vultures” Upsets Critics: “Two Most Problematic Rappers”

No matter how much trouble he gets in for sharing his controversial thoughts, Kanye West continues to pen NSFW lyrics about not being anti-Semitic after sleeping with a woman of Jewish descent, despite what labels haters have cast upon him. Now that his first single of the year, “Vultures” with Ty Dolla Sign, Bump J, and Lil Durk, is officially on DSPs, the father of four has been busy overseas celebrating with his wife, Bianca Censori. The couple was seen partying in Dubai along with Chris Brown and other close friends this past week. Currently, one video of Breezy and Yeezy seems to be garnering some seriously negative reactions online.

As Page Six reports, Jewish businesswoman Tanya Zuckerbrot shared a video of the musical duo dancing to “Vultures” on Instagram, questioning why they found so much humour in Ye’s troubling lyrics. “What’s more sickening? The lyrics … Or the fact that both Kanye West and @chrisbrownofficial find it [hilarious]?” she wrote in a post on Saturday (November 25), which has since been flooded with comments from her community, the majority of whom are also condemning the multi-talent’s behaviour.

“Let the record industry chew on this. Let them never EVER work again,” one of the most-liked comments on the post declares. “He’s just mad at Jews because Kim’s lawyer is Jewish and he gotta pay $270,000 a month in child support,” another user speculated. “Hey, West, get back on your meds. Nobody cares bout you,” they further taunted the father of four.
