Yea right I don’t believe it and if this is true then somebody paying cuz I ain’t heard not one thing about the music or the songs on this album I ain’t even seen ppl on social media playing it. If black folks are supporting Kanye like this then it shows WE are the problem.

All of these musicians use streaming farms to get to number one. Taylor, Beyonce, Kanye and the list goes on.

@ 9:11 A.M…. Black folks? Ye is globally iconic! Any financially successful artist has always had more than a predominantly black fan base. You know “black folk” usually buy the bootleg, or download for free. So gon & download
¥$ Vultures for free & give it a listen… it’s actually a solid album!

P.S.

“Black folk” haven’t been on code since the 60s, but we gon form Voltron November 2024.

Good For Kanye... He's Not My Preference. After The MACHINE Tried To Destroy, Cancel & Throw Him Away Because, Of His Own Personal Beliefs... I Applaud His Victory!!! Independent Is The Way To Go ~ Stop Making Your OPP Rich...

Kanye doesn't have loyal fans, Kanye has streaming farms. The success of the album is due to streaming only, not sales. It's a similar tactic used by Taylor Swift and Drake.

Those numbers are pathetic. No one is buying music these days huh.

People stream more than purchase physical albums now. The number of streams matter. His numbers are good and growing. Those jooish squatters, living on squatters rights. Didn’t stop his show. Independent, yes, cut out the middle man.
