Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign Consider Bold Move for “VULTURES” 2 Release – Say Goodbye to Streaming

 

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign might not be dropping “VULTURES” 2 on streaming platforms as promised. Instead, a new wave of information, previously absent in the first installment, has emerged. The Twitter account @yefanatics, now on X, claims to be in direct contact with Kanye and his team, providing exclusive updates on the project.

Recent message screenshots shared by the fan page reveal that at their Phoenix listening event on March 10, Ye and Ty plan to showcase both “VULTURES 1” and the anticipated sequel. Adding to the excitement, there’s a hint at another track named “Slide,” potentially setting the stage for the final part of the trilogy.

In a fascinating twist, Kanye West reached out to @yefanatics, seeking input from fans on the release strategy for the next two “VULTURES” albums. In a direct message, Ye expressed concerns about streaming devaluing music, echoing sentiments shared by artist James Blake. West contemplates a digital-only album release, exclusively through Yeezy.com, leveraging his massive Instagram following to challenge the norms of the music industry.

James Blake’s recent critiques of the music industry seem to be striking a chord with artists like Kanye West. Blake highlighted issues of artist exploitation, the impact of a streaming-dominated economy on creativity, and the downside of algorithmic engagement platforms like TikTok. While Kanye faces unique challenges, his contemplation of moving away from streaming reflects broader industry concerns.

If Kanye West follows through with this bold move, “VULTURES” 2 could become a landmark moment, akin to Willie Nelson’s departure from traditional streaming practices. While Donda 2 only released on the Yeezy Stem Player, the success of “VULTURES 1” on streaming platforms prompts a reconsideration for the sequel. With casual listeners still enamored with tracks like “CARNIVAL,” the focus may shift towards catering to the dedicated fan base.

History appears to be repeating itself, and Kanye West’s potential departure from streaming aligns with his innovative approach to album releases. For the latest updates on this groundbreaking decision and all things Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign, stay tuned to Honk Magazine.

Tylo $mith taps into the art of cool on “Sumn Light”

Tylo $mith is not here to scream at you for your attention. Instead, on “Sumn Light,” he slips into your speakers with laconic cool that says a lot without grunting. Taken from his forthcoming project Honor Chords, the song is a somber, mood-heavy cut that bleeds personality, clever bars, and introspective late-night celebration.

Over a hypnotic beat that pulsates like the neon light in the rain, Tylo $mith offers an off-the-cuff performance that seems razor-sharp. There’s a slackness to his delivery, a lanky-boned ease that suggests he’s not trying that hard because he doesn’t need to. He name-drops Christian Bale effortlessly, preens with a Nicki Minaj reference that lands just right, and saunters through verses like he’s talking to himself more than to an audience. But that’s why it resonates. There’s nothing fake here, just vibes and truth.

“Sumn Light” sounds like a confession you catch in freestyle, when the world quiets and honest thoughts creep in. The lyrics bounce between self-aware flexes and coy vulnerability in a balancing act that defines Tylo’s style. It’s not the over-explanation; it’s the space between the words, the sonic coolness, and the honesty cloaked in rhyme.

This song was made to add to your chill rap and vibey hip-hop playlists, but it also thrives on its own, winding its way through your headphones as background noise or front-and-center reflection. The production is minimalist but immersive, leaving space for the depth and texture of Tylo’s voice and pen to sit right in the pocket. He’s not trying to out-rap the beat, and he’s talking to it.

“Sumn Light” is a mood, a feeling, a moment that doesn’t need to scream to be heard. It captures what Honor Chords seems to be about: raw expression, offhand calm, and honesty that catches you unawares.
