:what:


All of those artists sell out stadiums
Yea but their fans wouldn't pay to listen to garth Brooks improvise and diddle along with a guitar for 2hrs for some unfinished incomplete album. They wouldn't pay to listen to Taylor swift hum along to unfinished tracks with missing verses. They wouldn't pay to see drake do his Lil dances and read verses from his phone. And they not paying to see BTK or whatever rehearse and practice and shyt....Kanye is one of the very few living that can do it. Even Paul McCartney used to do that shyt ON record and cacs were mad, but still loved him.

so Kanye pulling the stunt he pulled with this unfinished album presentation is something impressive?

You're right but not for the reasons you think.

Kanye is just interesting whereas everyone is isn't.

Cats want to watch a Kanye interview just to hear what he's gonna say, people want to hear what's in his vault. It's my opinion that he has declined in the past decade so this shyt now doesn't compare to when he was at his peak.

I don't know if you remember how big the Zane Lowe interview was when it came out, the 2013 one before he was married to Kim, this nikka literally broke the internet.

Kanye is/was that dude cats just wanted to pick his brain, see/hear what he was working on and who he was working with etc. He's definitely jumped the shark but mbdtf and before it was insane.

Them other cats just aren't as interesting musically or personally. And they ain't got the character or personality to where people are interested in what they are gonna say and do next.

All those artists fanbases will do everything you said they wouldn’t in this post lol

Nothing Kanye did was impressive…he sold a lot of tickets to an album experience …people paid..so they sat around and waited to see what they paid for

And yet alongside the bullshyt ass interviews of him rambling, saying ignorant things and acting an ass is the music that’s empty and not up to par.

I don't even get upset, I expect these antics from Ye. Who posted that Ye's albums will be the first to have "DLC" attached to them? LOL. Crazy thing about the digital age is you can drop an album and instantly add changes. You couldn't do that once it was pressed up and sent to the stores for Physical. So people will be having different mastered versions of the album as Ye keeps making changes, lol. Anyways. Good Publicity Stunt Ye. Now everyone will anticipating the album in a few weeks. He's a perfectionist and this is about his Mom so he wants it to be Dope. Ironically that date is basically the 10th Anniversary of "Watch The Throne" and the Jay record is already getting buzz. But that's 2 full weeks, he better not miss the next date.

I work with about 6 crackers who are about to see Garth Brooks live. I questioned them to see how much of a fan they are, they are more than casual listeners, some avid fans but they wouldn't pay to hear garth fumble around on a guitar and mumble along to some throwaway tracks just to be like "thanks for comin out folks!"



I think you underestimate.....we can call it stupidity, I think you underestimate the stupidity of Kanye fans. The nikka literally dropped a song talking bout "scoopity poop" or some shyt.....tell me a garth fan would pay for it, tell me a taylor fan would pay for it. Tell me honestly. There's limits, and I don't think the world knows where the limits are for a Kanye fan

not that day


Notice how all of the items are in plural form? Notice “suite attendant”?

We’re looking at club seating and luxury suite pricing. So that’s like 10 hot dogs per order. 20 chicken fingers…etc. Delivered to you with condiments. With a heater to keep it warm. And cleaned up after you.

Those prices aren’t out of the ordinary. At Gillette Stadium (company had a suite there) prices were regularly more than that for certain events.

Taylor Swift could sell her toilet water on eBay for millions of dollars. You think she couldn’t fill up a stadium to listen to her improvise?

I'd put $1000 on it.

The cats that would buy her toilet water wouldn't be the same ones going to her concert..........


Let taylor or garth drop a song with them just humming, scatting, and mumbling....see how their fans react. Kanye really dropped some "scoopity poop" shyt and his fans ate it up.

It’s funny too because luxury suites have the cheapest food in the building. 10 people in a suite paying $40 for 10 hot dogs is a lot cheaper than Joe Schmoe in nose bleeds paying $8 for one.
