Ye, formerly Kanye West, and Ty Dolla $ign had already let fans down by repeatedly delaying the release of the second volume of ‘Vultures.’ Even when the album was finally released, it failed to change the lukewarm reception from fans. ‘Vultures 2’ garnered a less-than-enthusiastic response, further marred by various controversies surrounding its release. Now, despite Ye’s attempts at damage control with a flashy music video for the track ‘SLIDE,’ it has struggled to generate any real excitement among the public.
After a lengthy break from social media, Ye made a return to announce that his ‘SLIDE’ music video is now available. He also shared, “KOREA LIVE STREAM TONIGHT ON YEEZY.COM.” However, the focus of the announcement appeared to be more on the Korea live stream, considering that the ‘SLIDE’ music video had already been out for nine days. Despite this, the post did little to alleviate fans’ disappointment with the entire ‘Vultures 2’ project. The ‘Donda’ artist is gearing up for his first concert in Korea in 14 years.
Ye has already arrived in Korea for his Friday performance, accompanied by his wife Bianca Censori and their children North, Saint, and Chicago. Fans are also hoping this could mark the start of the highly anticipated Asian tour for the Grammy-winning rapper. While Asia is currently caught up in Ye-mania, despite the disappointment of the Taiwan show, fans on social media are expressing their dissatisfaction with Ye’s ‘SLIDE’ music video.
Fans have flooded the comments with their nostalgia for the old Ye- back when he did not even go by that name
Some fans expressed their disappointment with ‘Vultures 2’ by commenting, “I miss the old Kanye” and “album was unsigma.” A significant number of fans also called for a deluxe edition of ‘Vultures 2’. Despite the negativity, there were still those who remained supportive of the rapper and were eagerly anticipating the Korean show. Who knows, perhaps this performance could be the turning point for Ye?
