Kanye West Blames Rivalry Between Apple and Tidal for Lack of New Collaboration With Jay Z

[deany]

Gosh, I'm losing sleep tonight over the lack of collaboration between kanye west and jay-z.
It surely would have gone down in music history.


Like say "Iam the Walrus" and "Eleanor Rigby" The Beatles collaborating with George Martin.

Gosh we really missed out here with kayne and jay

For Kanye, there is always someone else to blame for his shortcomings, despite how successful he is.

I admit, I've enjoyed his music in the past, even bought a few albums back in the day. But these days, he makes me sick and I refuse to give him a cent ever again. I won't even stream a song from this guy. He's the lowest of the low.

 

[CarlJ]

Either that or it's because nobody wanted to hear you talk, Kanye. Sit down Gayfish.
BTW What's a Tidal?

Don't you get it? He called it Tidal _because_ he is a gay fish!

He made near zero impression on me prior, aside from being the "Ima let you finish" jackass (somehow I actually managed to watch that live, and was rather astonished), but South Park really filled in the details for me.

you guys are so racist. No talent? all this kanye hate

You actually think you can write a song? you think you have what it takes?

I'm not a kanye fan but i do know hate when i see it.

One of my favorite things is watching a bunch of grown ass men dedicate an entire thread to bashing someone who is more successful and influential than they could be in ten lifetimes.

I don't even like Kanye, but the jealousy is strong with this one...

 

[Remy149]

Not that I like this thug or his music or any other artist, but when I buy a ticket to show, I don't want to hear opinions or views on anything. Do your job, play your music, and go home.

I'm very confused with why you would call this man a thug he has no criminal record or background and was raised by his mother who was a college professor it's just sad how the word is to easily being used to describe black men regardless of wether they are a criminal or not

Don't even try... they hate him, like he murdered their families.

If this story would have come from any other, more liked artist, people would support him/her.
Because his point is actually very valid. If the politics of the different streaming services get in the way of collaboration between artists and essentially prevent artists from doing what they want to do, then it's actually a big problem.
But as soon as people read his name, their hate kicks in and they get tunnel vision.

I clicked on this article for the sole purpose of seeing how many people don't give the slightest f*&% what this man thinks, and I'm fairly encouraged. The fact that this insignificant human being and his equally, if not less, significant "wife" are mentioned at all in anything related to real business matters is a travesty.

If you're reading this, please carry on and pretend this article never existed, as you'll be just as sufficiently informed in matters of actual importance as you were, previously.

Is this like The legendary rivalry between Apple computer and myself in the phone space? Or more like the rivalry between Alabama and Kent State. Or Serena Williams and Anna Kourikova?

Rivalry.

If you are going call upon the hotness, please spell her name right.

A little sensitive much?

It's Thursday, I'm sensitive today, hence I'm looking forward to Friday

If South Park is where you get "details," I feel sorry for you.

I'm sure you are a very important, "significant" person. /s

Yes, because making $1 million per minute from an app has nothing to do with business. Don't let that hate get the better of you...

Could somebody here please write a browser add-on which changes every text instance of "Kanye West" to something else?

It should make reading about him a little more tolerable. For example:

Are you an adult? "Recovering Gay Fish" Really?

Trash comes in all colors.

There are so many reasons to dislike Kanye West, and race is certainly not one of them. Your projection speaks volumes about you as a person.

your insinuations speak volumes about yourself.

Look there is subconscious feelings you can't control.

Who would you rather be? The one prejudging someone you have never met? Or the one that defends someone from an unwarranted character attack?

No need to answer, you have already.

There is surely racism in our world, in addition to sexism, ageism, etc. Tossing these about willy-nilly does more to harm the cause then help, and if you can't understand that, enjoy being part of the problem in our society.

So you can call me a racist if I don't like a black artist's art?
Thanks, but no thanks.

Addition for the education:

Next time you are about to level that kind of accusation on someone for sometihng as spurious as not liking KANYE WEST, just remember- someone (not quite bleeding heart, but not quite confederate flag waving, a pretty average Joe, if you will) might see your claim and think, "Boy, that's stupid. Of course that is not racist! These liberals are out of their mind!" This person now has that much more doubt every time they hear about racism, and you have just pushed the goal line of eradicating racism even further away. Have you heard of the boy who cried wolf?

I have an enormous dislike of Donald Trump. By your logic, that's entirely because I don't like an outspoken white (or orange) man. Or maybe I have tremendous disdain towards both Kanye and Donald because they're both pompous narcissistic jackasses who think they're better and more important than everyone else.

But congratulations on "playing the race card" - people like you are the reason why conservatives feel they have some footing when they claim someone is merely playing the race card when in fact racism is actually happening. Crying wolf just because things aren't going your way is a bad idea - it hurts us all.

I'm not a kanye fan but i do know hate when i see it.

1. I'm black
2. You're the only one that brought race into this thread.
3. I hate Kanye because of his inflated ego and the fact that he doesn't seem to know how to shut up.
4. I'm a musician who has written music before. Your comment doesn't make any sense considering no one is criticizing his work, just his personality and actions.

Yes, I'm glad I was not the only one to call out this misinformed individual. Pure, unadulterated ignorance. The worst part is that the people tossing around "Racist!" TRULY think they are helping by doing so.

do you believe racism exists on this very thread?

 

[WinstonRumfoord]

do you believe racism exists on this very thread?

In the hearts of those who post? Sure, statistically a handful of the posters should be racist.

In the words put forth? No, not in this thread. Any other questions?
