December 2023 made way for a slew of updates centered around Kanye West. After months of rumors hopping alongside him from country to country, the rapper finally delivered on long-standing demands for his next studio album. However, the release did not happen as planned and fans still stand clamoring for the entirety of the album instead of tidbits from rave parties. Amid such an outlook, Ye and Ty Dolla $ign have taken to some work behind the scenes, readying ‘Vultures’ before its debut flight.

In an interesting update, the ‘Flashing Light’ singer once again amped up the hype for an album by literally letting it radiate off his skin.

Kanye West stole the lights when he descended on Miami on 12th December for his ‘Vultures’ listening party. Evidence of unhinged hype exuded as a crowd of fans stayed hooked for him hours past the expected midnight schedule. Days later, now, despite no release, a fresh update made its way to the Internet. Taking to his Instagram stories, Ty Dolla $ign shared a snap of Ye tattooing ‘Y$’ on himself.

The story played ‘Everybody’ from their joint album, even as another one shared him getting one inked as well. The duo’s collaboration has taken to the stage name of ‘Y$’ even as the album adopted ‘Vultures’ alongside a much talked about logo and album art. Moreover, the collaborator also shared new Yeezy merchandise in the form of folding boots, even as the album wear likely appeared in a few glimpses.

Soon after the ‘Vultures’ rave party, the album with 18 songs landed on Apple Music for pre-save. As all the stars lay aligned for a release before Christmas, the entirety of it disappeared from the platform, upsetting fans worldwide. The reason behind it came across as quality enhancements, even though the likely culprit would be that the duo was still not done recording.

True to his tradition, Kanye West uses his listening parties to tune his album for the audience. Thus, after the Miami rave, key updates and changes may now have their way into the album. As of now, January 12, 2024, remains the likely release date for ‘Vultures’. Regardless, the album may now mark Ye kick-starting 2024 on a high note even as predictions gauge him to regain his high-profile billionaire and musical influence status.
