Kanye West did not drop his new album, “Vultures,” last night. It’s not a surprise, frankly, and just as well.
The avowed antisemite and Hitler admirer should be shunned, away. I’m amazed anyone wants to hear what he has to say beyond what he’s already said. All his sponsors and business partners have dropped him because of it.
In Chicago last night, West filled up an arena for a listening party for “Vultures.” It didn’t start until 10pm. According to some reports, the live stream — which could be purchased for $19.99 — was cut off when West chanted “I’m still crazy, bipolar, antisemite, and I’m still the King.”
A post from West on X, taken from a deleted text he shared, claimed he couldn’t release the album because “Abel’s label” — meaning Universal, which distributes The Weeknd — wouldn’t approve their artist’s participation.
Tonight, West moves the circus to the UBS Arena near Belmont Park here in New York. According to Ticketmaster, there thousands of seats available.
PS Kudos to Kim Kardashian for letting her daughter, North, participate in this chaos.
I don’t understand why this happens every time.. somebody verse always can’t get cleared lol. Like, it’s Kanye.. why wouldn’t they clear the verse for him? https://t.co/W4vSVfh3JI
