Wolves is going to be Kanye's Trapped in the Closet, with new installments releasing constantly until 2020

I can live with it

 

[Treythalomew]

After listening to almost a year of a fan edit of Wolves, it's only right that there be an EP worth of Wolves versions.

 

[Ran rp]

YO WHAT THE FUCK
BJORK
TYO WHAOT CUK

 

[Ran rp]

Wow, that is quite something.

Didn't think I'd ever hear Bjork on a track with Ye, Drake, Frank Ocean, Vic Mensa, and Sia, but damn. Hope this shit is legit.

Fuck, didn't even think Ye knew who Bjork is. lol, Man, that might means I might one day hear a real Thom Yorke and Kanye track together, not counting that CRS track.

lol @ the idea of Yeezus of all people not knowing who Bjork is

 

[Reckoner]

lol @ the idea of Yeezus of all people not knowing who Bjork is

Even big brother Jay is very vocal about his admiration for Bjork

remember this thread? NPD: Adidas' 'Yeezy' collaboration with Kanye West has not paid off

thought it was worth mention that actually relevant 2015 data is starting to come out now

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/adidas-turnaround-nike-under-armour-tayloramade-trouble-220230127.html

"Adidas Group grew 29% over the year before // Adidas brand global sales grew 16% // Adidas brand grew 12% in the U.S. // Adidas (ADDYY) is up 36% in the past year,"

Which isn't to suggest it's because of Kanye... Just that thread was basically saying 'revenue is flat' so 'kanye was a waste.' Which was silly especially since it was based on 2014 data when it was really 2015 where Yeezys blew up on social media which is after the rev was flat in '14. And, anyways, 2015 revenue was far from flat =p Lot of it is the new CEO in general though and I read an article that said Pharrel was a bigger factor.

Didn't want to bump that thread since probably the only people who would be interested read this thread =p

KANYE WEST ‏@kanyewest 2m2 minutes ago
Uuuuum... hi everybody!

The L's have returned.

Ye. You can't charge people for a theater showing, taking said money, and then not releasing said products. I still don't have my fucking CD or Hoodie, which I paid for. I'm about to contact SEE tickets and ask for a refund at this point.

 

[MThanded]

He's back

 

[NotLiquid]

KANYE WEST ‏@kanyewest 24s24 seconds ago
uuuuuuum, so there it is... No more CDs from me

 

[MThanded]

Ok.

Kanye at least let us buy your album.

 

[victreeb3l]

No CDs is fine but let me buy that shit

 

[AzureSkies]

Fuck it we should get at least one artist from every genre of music (except fucking country) for a 27 minute super track of Wolves.

fuck it, even country.

let's go everywhere

let's get kpop wolves

It's amazing how much bad analysis is floated out there every day.

 

[RecRoulette]

KANYE WEST @kanyewest
please avoid trying to talk me out of being me in the future

Sorry for trying to give you money dawg, didn't realize you were happy being broke

 

[CrazyShady]

HA!

Yeah honestly all we want to do is give him money as directly as possible...

 

[Spine_Ripper]

Just this morning I was thinking about how the packaging would look.

What the hell

 

[DietRob]

welp

 

[Heysoos]

Kanye let me buy this fucking album already Jesus christ.

 

[FZZ]

I'm riding March 18th till I die

 

[Anth0ny]

i've been bootlegging vinyl since '66

kanye you aren't stopping me mother fucker

 

[EloquentM]

I fucking hate this man

 

[JohnDoe]

Never go full retard

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

So we're getting a Vinyl release of this album? Even better

 

[M.J. Doja]

I wouldn't mind seeing some album art or having something physical. Already on TIDAL, but I'm already hating this kinda shit from Ye. Real fans gotta suffer.

 

[Catvoca]

"the Yeezus album packaging was an open casket to CDs r.i.p" - kanye

Holy shit it was planned all along!

Seriously I have now problem with him not releasing CD's if he'd just let people buy his album digitally. Although I'm not quite sure why he wouldn't sell CD's, is it really that much work to get them made? He should probably release it on Vinyl too, collectors lap that shit up.

 

[Stabby McSter]

brb holding a vigil for cd's

Gonna hold a seance to listen to my Yeezus CD again.

 

[BanGy.nz]

I just want to give him my money. Kayne let me give you money.

 

[lastflowers]

So we're getting a Vinyl release of this album? Even better

yezzzir

Got my bootleg Yeezus LP, my bootleg Graduation LP (I thinK?)

 

[Ashhong]

He says no CD, which doesn't count out albums on iTunes, but then he says only streaming.

CMON KANYE WTF

 

[Catvoca]

Are we sure he's not just saying he's not gonna make any more College Dropouts?

 

[CrazyShady]

Are we sure he's not just saying he's not gonna make any more College Dropouts?

And his next album is called "...Only Streaming"

 

[Owari]

And we get no refund. What the fuck Kanye

 

[Kaladin]

CDs will not be going away for a long time. I don't see him dropping CDs making much of a difference except to remove an option for his fans to buy his music.

 

[overcast]

KANYE WEST ‏@kanyewest 24s24 seconds ago
uuuuuuum, so there it is... No more CDs from me

I don't really give a shit at this point tbh.

 

[killertofu]

Yo fuck you, Kanye, first and foremost.

 

[Catvoca]

And his next album is called "...Only Streaming"

This would legit be my favourite thing ever.

 

[MThanded]

Has anyone who preordered had any contact with see tickets or def jam about the preorder. I just want a digital download. Honestly what is going on

i bought a ticket to msg

i should prob call soon huh

 

[Ran rp]

what the fuck right now

 

[enzo_gt]

The Def Jam/pre-order situation is super fucked up TBH. People should be making noise about this, to at the very least get Ye/Mike Dean/media's attention.

 

[Mr Waluigi]

wake me up inside

 

[victreeb3l]

Seriously, people should make a bigger stink about Def Jam not giving refunds. Turn that into a hashtag instead of whatever dumb shit people like to get mad at Kanye about.

Like this whole saga has really soured me on this man. Fuck this dude b

 

[j-wood]

If i don't get my hoodie and a digital copy of the album by the end of this week, i'm definitely getting ahold of someone for a refund. That's absurd.
