The never-ending delays for Ye (formerly Kanye West) and Ty Dolla $ign’s ‘Vultures 2’ have begun to take a toll on fans and it shows. Following months of no updates on the follow-up record, coupled with mounting frustration from their fandoms worldwide, the record has suffered inevitably from the get-go. Although the fate of ‘Vultures 1’ was not indifferent, despite its hold-off, it did initially hit the shelves, unlike ‘Vultures 2’. However, now that $ign has some exciting news to share, all fans can come to terms with is their relentless disbelief.

GoodAssSub recently took to X to share news about Ty Dolla $ign's latest teaser for 'Vultures 2' during a livestream. The rapper reportedly said ‘Vultures 2’ before a static glitch interrupted, with the only audible words being "next week." Although a previous report stated that the new release date for ‘Vultures 2’ is August 15, $ign's cryptic hints suggest a potential earlier release. Typically, fans would be excited about an early release, but this time, they are cautious, fearing it might be another false alarm.

Following the report, the outlet shared another update from Ty Dolla $ign himself. When recently asked to play some new music from ‘Vultures 2’ on the stream, the rapper suggested fans listen to the recent leaks instead. He allegedly remarked that they "aren't the real album anyway" and mentioned that someone claimed the whole album had been leaked. The rapper even advised to search "Vultures 2 CDQ on YouTube," though he was unsure of which version it might be.

Fans feel cornered once again despite Ty Dolla $ign’s teaser for his and Ye’s Vultures 2

Ye's albums have a history of problematic rollouts, and the fate of his and Ty Dolla $ign's ‘Vultures 2’ is no different. In recent days, there have been several updates about the missing record, from expected release dates to listening parties. However, one thing that has significantly dwindled is fans' confidence in the artists, with the confusing updates and unfulfilled promises only adding to the uncertainty.

Many fans hoped someone had recorded a clip for future evidence, while others wished the artists were not joking.

Some, however, could not help but compare this situation to Ye's ‘Yandhi’ record, which has been in limbo since 2018 and has only made him more unreliable. While most fans are convinced that the album will not be released within the next week, the reported leak has now raised a new row of concerns about whether it will ever receive an official release from the artists.
