Kanye West’s “Vultures” is producing some weird chart results.
Not a single track has appeared yet on the iTunes top 100 singles. Not one. No one seems to be buying and downloading tracks.
On the other hand, the album itself is number 2 on the iTunes album chart. And West holds down7 of the top 10 streaming songs.
It’s dismaying to think of people learning the lyrics to his hated filled, vulgar songs. It’s not just the antisemitism. But there is no “clean” version of this rap album, just an explicit one.
Fatherhood has not dampened West’s coarseness. Can you imagine his four kids with Kim Kardashian in their Rolls Royce SUV, chanting these words during carpool:
Go, go, go, go
Head so good, she a honor roll
She ride the dick like a carnival
I done did the impossible
Go, go, go, go
Head so good, she a honor roll
How about:
I don’t want your hoes
Young nigga reach all the goals
Let her suck the dick, said she was a pro
If she scrape her teeth, I’ma tell her to go
