Kanye & Ty Dolla $ign Fail To Drop ‘Vultures’ Vol. 1

Welp, Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign fans woke up disappointed as the first volume in the Vultures series failed to drop.  The duo did give fans an alternate version of the title track and music video that was previously teased. The new "Vultures" is titled "Vultures (Havoc)" version.

However, fans who were unable to attend the Chicago listening party were able to get a taste of what is to come on social media. At Chicago's United Center on Thursday (Feb. 8) Ye previewed "Everybody," and some more tracks from he and Ty's first volume of the three collaborative projects they're working on.

One of the highly anticipated songs on Vultures is "Everybody" featuring Charlie Wilson and Lil Baby. The track samples the 1997 track "Everybody(Backstreet's Back)" by the Backstreet Boys.

Kanye performed with his oldest daughter North West for her debut feature on " Talking/Once Again." She was one of three artists who came up on stage during the listening party. Playboi Carti and YG also made an appearance.

Earlier this week, Ye dropped the official music video to the song featuring his daughter.

According to Complex and social media, Kanye was able to play 17 of the 18 tracks on the album. He didn't play the last one due to "venue restrictions" due to Chicago's live event curfew. Kanye will be taking his listening party to New York tonight (Feb. 9) to continue. The listening party will be held at UBS Arena in Belmont Park.

"Fans will have the rare opportunity to experience ‘Vultures, Volume 1’ in a high-fidelity audio and visual showcase, crafted by YE and Ty Dolla Sign,” the venue shared on their website. "This event marks a historic moment as attendees will listen to the album together with the artists and album collaborators."

Tickets are currently on sale and can be purchased here.

Before Kanye was the rapper, entrepreneur, and trendsetting mogul that he is today, he got his start as a producer most notably working with Jay-Z. Back in 2000, Ye was signed to Roc Nation’s team of in-house producers and from there the rest is history. With over 20 years of experience in the music business, Ye has continued to raise the industry standard.
