Starting point is 00:00:03 You know, there's a lot of promises made by certain individuals. And them time and time again, not fulfilling those promises, is just accepted from his fan base simply for the fact that he's the greatest of all time when it comes to music creation in the hip-hop realm. So when you're an engineer of that magnitude that knows how to tweak the A to waste, to high hats just the right way. And then also came to give us bars that a lot of people relate to. And then your personal life, a lot of people are influenced by your ability to put words together.
Starting point is 00:00:48 It culminates into years and decades of confidence to where now your crash out and your inevitable retirement from music is going to be. a bittersweet moment because at the end of the day we all know that Kanye West is on a decline quality-wise when it comes to music creation I think Donda was the last time he gave us a classic body of work and I am calling Donda a classic
Starting point is 00:01:24 but currently this Vultures is like a mixtape event It's literally tracks on this latest track Vultrish 2, the rumored Votrish 3, which we're going to get into, of course. But Votrish 2 has a track titled 530, which is the ultimate depiction of Kanye's current quality of music. The idea is phenomenal. The execution is atrocious. And combining those is just overall mediocre music. Listening to 530, I was literally one minute in saying this is one of the one of the moment.
Starting point is 00:02:01 best tracks of 2024 and guess what the second half is filled with reference quality versus right i say reference because usually when you're in the studio don't ask me how i know this but if you know if you're helping somebody out with a couple vs as uh quaint miller put it or as drake put it when talking about quaint miller usually when you're listening to a beat if you want to get through beats quickly. The cadence and the flows is the most important part sonically and then you can get to what words you want to fill into those what words you want to use to go along with the flow that you create it. So if a beat's gone, you'll give a flow and you will come up with a cadence and then that would be the session and then you come back to it with words and then you put the words
Starting point is 00:02:55 along with the flow and then you come up with the exact uh sound you want for that track Kanye put out the version at the second half as far as the verse for uh 530 i'm specifically talking about this track because it's uh throughout this album um some of some tracks are fully uh realized but 530 is one that's just atrocious to the point i have to point this out so he's mumbling certain verses certain words and he's basically getting his flow together but guess what he put it out like it was the final version on the actual album. So now that he's shown us that he does not care about finishing his songs and not taking the time to put together a quality body of work, then I think it's time for the greatest
Starting point is 00:03:41 of all time to retire. It's not one of those things I say lightly. It's been so many different things to come together to let me know that Kanye should probably retire because Donda came out in 2021. So technically, you know, the last time he gave us a classic body of work was three years ago. But with that being considered, a lot of things that's been coming out is very concerning to say the least and very reminiscent of Michael Jackson in the way he passed away as people who are close to Ye are coming out and saying a lot of disturbing things, right? Talking about there's certain people in his life, mainly a dentist's living,
Starting point is 00:04:24 his best life off of Yeezy and um giving yay certain things allegedly because of his ability to do so as him being a doctor right and remember this is all alleged got to say that you know what I'm saying but uh I'm very serious when I say this I think yay's closest people coming out and speaking on these things is very interesting. Because trying to portray Kanye as a victim at this time seems like a cop-out.
Starting point is 00:05:06 But the people who are close to him and have been close to him forever, it's kind of like the Cassie situation with Diddy. At first, you don't want to believe them. You want to feel like they went along with it and normally speaking out now because they got cut off. But when you hear things like this, it really can't go in one in and out the other
Starting point is 00:05:24 because they've been with him so long, it's like, there has to be some truth to what he's saying. And obviously, that's not always the case. You know, they could be blatantly lying. But as far as the things that's been coming out and as far as the people close to him speaking out about certain doctors, I'm not going to say doctor's name because it's always alleged, but talking about hooking Yey on like laughing gas as far as diminishing Ye's mental. to faculties and so they could extract millions of dollars from him. I think that's very interesting as far as the doctors and the predatory nature towards Kanye. But I will say that this is all alleged, we don't know, but it's just concerning that his
Starting point is 00:06:15 closest people, his bodyguards, and look this up if you want to, are coming out and saying that Kanye's being taken advantage of by the people close to him. And I think that's very interesting as this is one of our icons in the industry. And I think if Kanye would have had a ditty-like situation in the past, it would have probably came up to try to get him out of the paint. But I don't think that came about. I mean, Kim Kay hasn't said anything as far as, you know, having those type of instances with Kanye.
Starting point is 00:06:45 So I think this is more in line of other scenarios, more attributed to Michael Jackson with his relationship with his, doctor and I'm going to say allegedly once again so um with that being said um it's it's very concerning it's one of those scenes to where the music seems to be a subsequent effect of what he's going through and the things that Kanye's been saying is definitely not excused he still said them still his action still his actions and still needs to be held accountable for it because he's been saying the craziest things possible. Like the craziest things imaginable has been coming through Kanye's mouth.
Starting point is 00:07:33 So, yeah, man, Vultures 3 being promised and talking about a deluxe edition coming out, which never came out, right, which was supposed to have like Kit Cudy on their Paisal Pluma, Kodak Black. I think they was trying to put that out and they couldn't. And then they put something out from Atlantic saying like, this is how they treat indie artists. Like, it's just a lot of excuses for Kanye O'West right now. So I'm not, I don't know what to believe, but with me being so deep into it as far as the music insight
Starting point is 00:08:05 and the type of information I gained and garner from different people, it is concerning, not going to lie. But at the end of the day, we don't know. Outside looking in, well, for me, it's some information has been coming from certain places, but that's why I say it's concerning, because I don't want it to feel like it's like, oh, Kanye's a victim. At the same time, two things could be true.
Starting point is 00:08:28 Kanye could be taking advantage of and out here wilding. And I'm down, you know, people go through a lot. And I'm down to give Kanye some grace because of the years and decades long of just certain actions that shows that there's somewhat of some type of public, you know, some type of. philanthropy work that's come from Kanye as far as Chicago is considered. But overall, it seems like Kanye's just going down a downward spiral. So, and also as far as the downward spiral, Vultras too is actually doing great on the music side.
Starting point is 00:09:12 You know, everybody's still going to listen to Kanye's music. And I think one of the biggest things with that is, you know, once again, the people close to him, which I'm going to stop saying that. The former chief of staff, quote unquote, Milo, I forget his last name. It's super long, so I forget, but one of his closest people that, Milo is talking about the dentist stuff. So if you want to look up more of that, and I will look at Milo and Kanye. Yeah. So as far as the projections musically, right, talking about the music, I think that Taylor Swift coming out and projected to still be at number one for the 14th week in a row.
Starting point is 00:09:54 it's just insane right but it's also going to block vultures 2 to be uh uh it's going to block that from being number 1 so it's going to slide that to number 2 and we'll uh it's expected to fall short of voters 1 first week's sales which that was like 148 000 as an indie person like that's insane um so we don't know what voters 2 is going to sell first week but it's not looking like it's going to be another splash like Votras 1 was in which if you remember that Voters 1 came out and people was like surprised like Kanye really went number one independent and that was insane and Votches 2 just seems like it's just a shadow of that like it's not even going to come close so yeah uh I don't know about the situation well I don't know about the situation fully as far as like what's the facts but from what I've been
Starting point is 00:10:47 hearing man it's it is insane what's going on right now and the Kanye fandom knowing the Kanye current arc and I would just say that he probably should retire and focus on some other things in his life. So with that being said, click my link to my bio. Let me know one of my social media is. What do you think about Kanye's just current situation and do you feel bad for him or do you think that these are all consequences of his actions?
