Google is paying him for each album downloaded. It's a way to get people to use their service and enter their credit card info so they can make purchases later on much easier.
:ehhh: Only available in America i guess...decent ploy. They shoulda done it first or 2nd week though. Perhaps waited for a big release next year.

Has google play always offered albums? I wonder if theyll try to compete with Itunes

Yeezus is absolutley horrible :snoop: I'm a kanye fan, i own his entire discography. But Yeezus was pure hot garbage. I tried over and over to listen to it with an open mind and it was still horrible.

And the whole fake "kanye is goin against the industry" :comeon:

The whole fake "I'm not promoting the album" bullshyt :beli:

They offered a Busta Rhymes album for free a while back, same idea though. They want to get people to see how easy it is to get an album from the service.

I liked this album...but honestly I haven't listened to it since it came out other than "On Sight". I'm gonna have to revisit this this week.

Google Play is giving away 'Yeezus' and top singles from 2013

Google's making it easy to catch up on some of the best music of the year. As part of what it's calling Play Picks 2013, it's offering Kanye West's Yeezus and Chvrches' The Bones of What You Believe free for a limited time — it's also giving them the superlatives album and breakout-artist of the year, respectively. Alongside the two albums, Google's also offering 20 singles for free, including Arcade Fire's "Reflektor," Drake's "Started From The Bottom," and Disclosure's "When A Fire Starts To Burn". While they're all free, there is one small catch: you'll have to give Google your credit card number, even though you aren't paying.

With Play Music getting a bigger emphasis than ever this year, it's no surprise to see Google looking to attract new customers with some of the top music around. And once you've got your credit card in the store, Google is happy to point to plenty of other deals offered as part of Play Picks for you to buy next. Lorde's Pure Heroine, Janelle Monáe'sThe Electric Lady, Danny Brown's Old, and Katy Perry's Prism are available at discounted prices between $3.99 and $5.99, along with several dozen other albums. If you prefer to purchase your music, rather than subscribe to a service like Spotify, now may be your best chance to catch up on the year's biggest hits.

I don't understand the coli. Yall make diamond threads about Jay-Z riding a bike and looking awkward but feel sympathy when yall see Jaz-o bum ass with the :strugglejaz: face on. You guys want hip hop to evolve and complain about Yeezus. You guys want that old boom bap sound and when Joey Badass comes out with it you guys start complaining, the fukk?! :heh:
