The first time in awhile there’s some music related news with Ye! And it’s a biggin…
Kanye West has recently told us that he is working on his new album “Turbo Grafx 16.” No days off! Especially since “The Life of Pablo” has just came out.
So far, The Life of Pablo is only available to stream on TIDAL. You can’t buy it anywhere, you can’t stream it anywhere else – that’s it. There are rumors that a hard copy is supposed to be released, but while we wait for that confirmation, Ye is already hard at work on another album – due out this summer. Last night, Ye hit the studio with producer Mike Dean, along with Kid Cudi and Plain Pat, for what Ye’s barber Ibn Jasper says was the first Turbo Grafx 16 session. Totally excited for more new Kanye music and all – but am I the only one who would just appreciate a normal release? I get it, I get it – the fanfare, crazy tweets and false promises (hello, G.O.O.D. Fridays – are you there?) lead to more headlines and I suppose ultimately boost Ye’s name and music… But I just want a regular album that I can download on iTunes or buy in the store, and have it not come with a ton of crazy Kanye tweets and antics. Am I asking for too much here?!
With “The Life of Pablo” out of the way, Kanye can now work on his new projects. He has just released the name of his next album.
