Last year, Kanye West started looking for a distribution deal to release a new album. When Vultures 1, a full-length collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign, finally came out on Saturday, it was through FUGA — a business-to-business tech and distribution platform for labels — according to information available in YouTube’s content management system.
FUGA was not pleased, according to a company spokesperson. “Late last year, FUGA was presented with the opportunity to release Vultures 1,” the spokesperson said in a statement to Billboard. “Exercising our judgment in the ordinary course of business, we declined to do so.”
The spokesperson continued, “on Friday, February 9, 2024, a long-standing FUGA client delivered the album Vultures 1 through the platform’s automated processes, violating our service agreement. Therefore, FUGA is actively working with its DSP partners and the client to remove Vultures 1 from our systems.”
A rep for West did not respond to a request for comment.
Album bout to be lost media
Kanye and lost media are literally twins
He's basically the embodiment
Let them know how you feel
why is ye like this? his team could easily find a distributor who wouldnt mind helping release the album, why go through all this bs lol
could also just be them trying to get more $

I mean FUGA was not pleased, according to a company spokesperson. “Late last year, FUGA was presented with the opportunity to release Vultures 1,” the spokesperson said in a statement to Billboard. “Exercising our judgment in the ordinary course of business, we declined to do so.”
I mean what else would they have to decline?
I think it also has to do with the fact this album has multiple sample clearance issues (e.g. the Donna Summer fiasco)
Brodie really just went grass roots and said "fuck it" we just putting this s*** out lmao
Kelly Osbourne basically said Mexicans are only good for cleaning toilets and her music is still on every DSP
