Source: Scott Dudelson / Getty The saga that is Kanye West continues to bewilder fans, friends and the indifferent, particularly because of all the tangential topics his Twitter feeds brings to light. In the latest example, according to Charlamagne Tha God, Yeezy—the same guy rallying against greedy record labels on social media—owes his old buddy Big Sean a cool $3M. That’s not chump change. While on The Breakfast Club and during co-host Angela Yee’s “Rumor Report” segment, Charlamagne rode for G.O.O.D. Music’s Big Sean while casting a hypocritical light on Mr. West. [embedded content] “Can we salute Big Sean?,” said Charlamagne. “Drop one of Clue’s bombs for Big Sean. The restraint that Big Sean shows to Kanye West is remarkable.

Source: Timothy Norris / Getty Kid Cudi is one of Kanye West’s biggest collaborators and a long time friend, but when it comes to that MAGA nonsense, the Cuddster isn’t on board with that. Cudi is working his ass off despite the COVID-19 pandemic still wreaking havoc across the country. The rapper/actor sat down with Esquire for an intimate conversation that touched on a range of topics. One, in particular, is Cudi’s starring role in the new HBO series We Are Who We Are, in which he plays Richard Poythress, a member of the United States military who we learn is a Donald Trump supporter in the second episode.

Tiësto Reveals That Kanye West Wanted to Collaborate on “Fade”

Tiësto and Kanye West almost collaborated on “Fade.” Let that sink in for a moment. In a new interview with GQ, the dance music legend waxed poetic about a number of topics, like his taste in memes, the Ableton-themed design of his new home, and the likelihood of house music’s survival if clubs were to permanently shut down due to COVID-19. It was his revelation about the polarizing hip-hop legend West, however, that served as a needle in a haystack. When asked if he had ever been starstruck by anyone he’d met, Tiësto dropped Kanye’s name. “One time he had just done an award show in Vegas and after we went to his dressing room. He sat down and he played some new tracks. He played me the whole [Life of] Pablo album, from start to finish,...

After years of helping adidas close the gap with Nike for title of “Hottest Brand In These Streets” thanks to his massively popular Yeezy line, Kanye has decided he no longer wants to just be a featured artist/designer on the three stripped brand, he wants to be on the board of directors.

Sunken Rapper Kanye West Vows To Give Back His 50% Share of Masters To G.O.O.D Music Artists

Source: Rich Fury/VF20 / Getty Kanye West’s presidential campaign is flopping, so now he is dead set on “freeing” himself and other artists from their contracts with music labels. Before Mr. West can lead that fight against unfair music contracts, he has to take a look in the mirror. Yeezy was already accurately called a hypocrite by Ma$e for making light of his contract situation with Diddy and Bad Boy, now he has seen the light in regards to himself. West is on a fervent quest to get his masters back and knows before that he can do that, he has to take care of the artists currently on his label G.O.O.D. Music. In a tweet, he vowed to bless his artists, stating: “I’m giving all Good music artists back the 50% share I have of their masters.” I’m giving all Good music artist back the 50% sh...
