FUGA Removes Kanye West's 'Vultures' Album Tracks Amidst Controversy

Written by Published

Music distributor FUGA announced its decision to remove Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign's joint album "Vultures" from its systems, shortly after its release on streaming services. The album, which faced months of delays, was uploaded to FUGA's platform without authorization by a client, violating their service agreement. Despite efforts to remove the album, some tracks, including the single "Talking / Once Again," featuring North West, remain available on certain platforms.

In response to efforts by Taylor Swift fans to prevent his album from charting, Kanye West urged fans to stream Beyoncé's new singles instead. This move comes amidst ongoing controversies surrounding West, including his recent antisemitic outbursts and the loss of lucrative collaborations with Gap and Adidas. Despite issuing a blanket apology to the Jewish community, West's behavior continues to raise concerns about his future in the industry.

Rolling Loud announced that Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign will headline the festival on March 14, adding to the buzz surrounding their album release. However, not all attention has been positive, with Black Sabbath star Ozzy Osbourne criticizing West for playing a live track of their song "War Pigs" during a listening party for "Vultures." West's provocative behavior and controversial statements continue to generate headlines, keeping fans and critics alike on edge about what's next for the artist.
