Noise around: Kanye West and all-all-all

Kanye West released the new album “The Life of Pablo” on February 14, and since then he did everything possible to almost daily get into the headings of all the media. We kept in the “Shapito” to the last, telling only about the most important , but now there are so many news that we decided to collect all the most loud events around Kanye in one material.

Kanye and Taylor Swift

This is perhaps the main topic. In the song “Famous”, West sings: “It seems that I could still have sex with Taylor Swift. Why? I made this bitch famous. " Two musicians have at least in public - a long and difficult story of relationships.

In 2009, Kanye West was interrupted by Taylor Swift's thanksgiving, who received the MTV Video Music Awards for the best clip to say that Beyoncé has one of the best videos of all time. West still believes that it was thanks to his trick that all the media wrote about that Taylor Swift became famous.

In subsequent years, West then apologized to the pop star, or responded to his apologies. In general, before the release of the last album, the relationship between West and Swift looked good: in September 2015, Taylor showed a huge bouquet, which sent her Kanye, accompanying the photograph by the unambiguous goal of #bfs (abbreviation from “best friends forever”).

After the world heard the words of the new song-this happened on February 11 at the presentation that Kanye West arranged in the New York sports complex "Madison-Square-Garden"-their relationship became aggravated again. Swift itself personally did not speak about the song “Famous”, but the anonymous sources of the TMZ tabloid immediately after the concert reported that West explained to the singer that it was a joke, she understood it and gave the go -ahead to publish the track.

The representative of Taylor Swift denied this. According to him, the singer did not give any consent, and Kanye called to ask her to post a song on his Twitter. Moreover, Swift did not know that in the text of the track there was a line "I made this bitch famous."

Kanye West in response burst out by a series of tweets on the topic of the scandal. По словам музыканта, «сучка» не считается в хип-хопе плохим словом (как и «ниггер»), а Тейлор Свифт одобрила выход песни (как и его жена Ким Кардашьян). Moreover, West claims that the idea of ​​these lines came from Swift itself: supposedly she said in a conversation with their common friend: “I cannot be angry with Kanye because he made me famous.”

Taylor Swift answered even more pompously - at the Grammy award ceremony (the singer received a figurine for the best album of the year, becoming the first woman who received this award twice) she made a motivating speech addressed to the girls: “There will be people who are going to bring down the price of your success or take responsibility for your achievements or your glory. But if you concentrate at work, then one day you will see that you have achieved what you wanted, thanks to yourself and the people who love you. ”

What this confrontation will lead to (if it is not staged at all) is still unclear. If only because the true position of West is incomprehensible. On the one hand, after Grammy, the musician in a short interview given on running at the airport, said that he “wishes the best for this person”, after which he tried to explain that there are more important topics in the world than this.

At the same time, an audio recording made behind the scenes of the Saturday Night Live show, which was played by West, leaked into the network. Delated that on the stage of the show at the last moment before the performance there were changes, he allegedly shouted: “Now I am in despair. Because of this and because of Taylor Swift, a fake ass. ”

In the same record you can hear how the alleged Kanye shouts that he is 50 percent more influential than anyone in the world, including Pablo Picasso and the apostle Pavel. True, the Americans believe differently: Nielsen said that West considers only 24 percent of the US adults, while Taylor Swift is 55 percent.

Kanye and sex with Taylor Swift

A line about sex with Taylor Swift from the same song “Famous” received less attention, because it was immediately clear that it was about artistic exaggeration. Stephen Colbert spoke best in this regard in his show: he drew attention to the fact that Kanye West was boycotting the Grammy ceremony until his album was recognized as the best - although he was not even nominated. “Kanye, I have the feeling that you have the same chances of sex with Taylor the same as receiving Grammy, which you were not nominated for.”

Kanye and his debts

Another topic that Kolbert laughs in this episode is the debts of Kanye West. The musician said (again, through his twitter) that he has 53 million dollars of debts, and asked Mark Zuckerberg and co -founder Google Larry Page to help him.

The musician asks a rather big amount: “Mark Zuckerberg, invest a billion dollars in the ideas of Kanye West.”

West does not delve into the essence of his ideas, only promising to make the world better and calling himself Walt Disney of modernity. He also published a table of the directions of the work of his DONDA dreams - for example, the topics, Internet, transport and medical research fell into it.

In the category of “trademarks and patents”, among other things, Kanye indicated “Auto -correction of emoticons” - and this was the only idea that Kolber liked very much. The host admitted that because of poor vision, he confused Emoji for a long time, depicting “crying” and “laughter to tears”, which is why he unconsciously laughed in the face of friends who informed about the death of a pet or a divorce.

Commented Kolber and how West asked for money: he thought of contacting the founder of Facebook through Twitter. With the stupidity of such a move, it seems, Tsuckerberg himself was also jointly in solidarity - he like a similar post of the former Facebook developer.

Zuckerberg did not respond in any way, but Kanye assures the press that the billionaire “may help”. But the Boston businessman John Lal is ready to help the musician right now: he said that he was ready to invest 53 million dollars in West's musical projects if he learned to be economical. “Do not send a personal assistant to Milan for purchases for you anymore and no fur coats for 40 thousand dollars. My financial director will conduct an audit of your life and appreciate your expenses, ”Lal set the conditions.

The musician also has another chance to earn: Gofundme launched a money campaign for West for the Craudfunding platform. In 4 days they raised 7 thousand dollars. Of the 53 million.

Finally, you can just get a job. West is already waiting for Philadelphia police. Salary - from 48 thousand dollars a year.

Kanye, Tidal and Pirates

Kanye West posted his new album into the TIDAL streaming service, launched in April 2015 with Jay-Z rapper. It was assumed that after a few days he would also appear in Apple Music and Spotify, but soon West said: “The Life of Pablo” can only be heard in Tidal and nowhere else.

The musician asked his fans to register in Tidal, and this worked: the service application for iOS headed the top of the whole App Store, for the first time in its history.

However, the restrictions introduced by West also have the opposite side: the new album spread out on pirate sites, where it was downloaded hundreds of thousands of times. On the most famous of them, The Pirate Bay, this distribution has reached the first line in popularity in the category of "music" and is still holding there.

Apparently, Kanye is not satisfied with this situation: unconfirmed messages have appeared that he intends to sue The Pirate Bay and discusses this opportunity with lawyers. A torrent tracker does not scare this opportunity. The representative of the site wished West Good luck in this case and said that the “law department will wait”, having previously offended the musician and his new album.

Kanye and the rest

Short.

Kanye West scolded the authoritative music magazine PitchFork for 9 out of 10 points to his new album. 9 points from PitchFork - this is very, very cool, you can only dream of this. But West believes that “The Life of Pablo” deserves 30 points.

The musician asked the “white media” not to comment on “black music”, because they still do not understand anything.

Kanye smashed the paparazzi fighting because of him and even acquired one of them.

The “most hated millionaire” Martin Shkrel, who recently bought the only copy of the new Wu-Tang Clan album for a million dollars, offered West for The Life of Pablo $ 10 million. Naturally, if he refuses to release the album and Shkrel will become its only owner. Later, the millionaire said that someone, posing as a representative of the musician, stole $ 15 million from him in bitcoins. However, all this looks so delusional that it seems that Shklyu was just joking.

In Moscow, young people who want to buy Yeezy Boost Pirate Black from Kanye West gathered a huge crowd on Petrovsky Boulevard. The police had to drive them off the road.
