Kanye West Previews New Music, Gets Excited Over Fake Political Poll

It’s the 23rd hour for the 2020 Election and Kanye West isn’t done playing his hand. The G.O.O.D. Music mogul hasn’t been campaigning as widely as the more popular candidates, but that doesn’t mean that he’s down for the count. Days ago, Kanye shared his campaign video where he made a religious plea to become America’s 46th president, and recently, we’ve also seen his Twitter unveiling of his “Vote For Kanye” election merchandise. On Tuesday (October 13), Ye retweeted a message that said the rapper is ahead of former Vice President Joe Biden in Kentucky’s precinct polls by five percent, and West celebrated online. However, the news source that was used in the post came forward to say that what was shared as false information.

“Someone discovered a cached web link that we used during June’s primary election to post Associated Press election results. The old link was still populating current AP data and showed test results, which is part of the preparation the AP does in advance of elections,” LEX 18 News penned in a tweet. “The results shown were not valid. They were simply part of a test. We regret the discovery of the cached web link and have removed the data from that page. We apologize for any confusion.”

Still, Ye tweeted that someone should get the West Wing ready for his presidential arrival. He also dropped off a snippet of a new track, or as he called it, his “theme music.” Ye wrote, “PEOLE TRIED TO TALK ME OUT OF RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT… NEVER LET WEAK CONTROLLING PEOPLE KILL YOUR SPIRIT.” He added, “THE WHOLE TEAM IS SO ENERGIZED THAT I HAD TO RELEASE THEME MUSIC NAH NAH NAH.” Check it all out below.

E.G. Phillips unveils where silence speaks the loudest on new release “Empathy for the Night Fly”

The mood of E.G. PHILLIPS’s “Empathy for the Night Fly” is instantly cinematic, dark, introspective, and frozen in time. The track sounds like a scene from a late-night club where everything slows down just enough for feelings to come out. The arrangement is jazz-like in that it lets each part breathe. The arpeggiating Rhodes piano comes and goes, giving the impression that the music is thinking, as if it’s moving.

The song is really about recognition, which is when you hear something in someone else’s voice that reminds you of your own experience. It’s subtle, almost fragile, but it has a big effect on people. That emotional connection is what holds the piece together.

That choice seems deliberate, even defiant. It asks the listener to pay attention differently, not just passively. Every break is a part of the story. E.G. Phillips doesn’t just make the mood; he keeps it going. In that space, “Empathy for the Night Fly” becomes a quiet, powerful look at memory, connection, and shared feelings.

Firecamino maintains folk storytelling with new release “Juan The Baptist”

“Juan the Baptist” is a stunning single by Firecamino, blending vivid storytelling with charming melody. The laid-back indie song with folk and country influences sounds like an ancient story told around a campfire after a long night.

The song’s central character is a misguided hero, vulnerable and human. Firecamino emphasizes imperfection over perfection, creating a relatable protagonist. That storytelling gives the song a cinematic, intimate feel.

“Juan the Baptist” handles several musical influences well. Folk-inspired writing and country textures add emotion and familiarity. Meanwhile, the cool indie vibe smooths the edges and lets the track flow naturally without being dramatic.
