There have been months of speculation about whether Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has lost his creative spark. With the release of 'Vultures 2,' fans quickly took it as the moment of truth for their worst fears. Although 'Vultures 2' did climb to the top of the Billboard charts upon its release, the audience's reception has been quite mixed. While some have praised the rapper for his phoenix-like resurgence, others feel Ye, as an artist, is no longer iconic.

Amid controversies surrounding 'Vultures 2,' it seems Ye is trying to turn things around and rekindle the old magic by teaming up with his former partners. 

'Donda' was considered one of the best albums of 2021. It was nominated for both Album of the Year and Best Rap Album at the Grammys that year. Much of its acclaim is because of the sound engineer, Irko, who worked wonders with the album despite having less than 30 days to mix all the tracks. And according to record producer Digital Nas, who also rose to prominence for his work on 'Donda', Irko is also working behind the scenes on the update of ‘Vultures 2’.

Ye, through his Yeezy website, informed that the 'Vultures 2' tracks are being “UPDATED” and would be published in “REAL TIME”. This news came as the album has been drawing a lot of criticism for its mixing. Ye and Ty Dolla $ign have also been accused of sampling tracks without permission, much like they allegedly did with the first volume of 'Vultures'. However, these were not the worst of the criticisms.

It has been alleged that Ye could not replicate his own voice on the album and hence, resorted to AI in 'Vultures 2'. 

As soon as 'Vultures 2' dropped, fans began noticing some abnormalities with the vocals in the tracks, and certain bars sounded pasted. Especially on two of its tracks, ‘SKY CITY’ and ‘FIELD TRIP,’ fans claimed that it sounded as if Ty Dolla $ign’s raw vocals were overlaid with Ye’s voice using AI. This led fans to poke fun at the ‘College Dropout’ creator, who have been wondering what all the fuss and delays were for.

From the very beginning, ‘Vultures’ was plagued with delays after delays. After so many release cancellations, without any explanation, fans had nearly lost hope of ever hearing the album. Yet, even after the release, it seems their expectations were not met. Nonetheless, with updates underway for ‘Vultures 2’ and old collaborators working to revive it, there is still hope that the naysayers' grievances with the album could be smoothed over.
