It took Thomas Alva Edison almost two years to create a reliable and affordable light bulb, Sabrina Carpenter almost ten years to find the right brand to shoot off her career, and Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, only a tour to Asia to create history. Geniuses all of them, but perhaps Ye knows how to strike the chord better than the rest.

Despite being slathered in claims ranging from bankruptcy to irrelevancy, Ye has proven just how deep his legacy runs as the verdict from the Asia wing of the 'Vultures' listening experience is rolled out.

Despite not getting undivided support and approval from Ye's loving fanbase initially, 'Vultures' has clearly grown on fans. After several failed listening parties in the US, the tables were turned when Ye took refuge in Asia and continued to hold listening parties in Korea and China. The total churn out has made Ye's Vultures: The Listening Experience the highest-grossing tour by a Western rapper in Asia history, with $11.9 million from 103,000 tickets sold in 3 shows.

The wave that the Atlanta rapper caused in Asia was truly a sight to be marveled at, with several K-Pop idols themselves coming down to witness him perform. Ye maintained the same, or perhaps even greater, energy as he moved northwards and gave those in the audience the ultimate listening experience by chanting out hate slogans for Adidas and also bringing out his kids to perform.

For fans, the attainment of this record is just another page in the hefty book of why Ye shall always remain one if not the Greatest of All Time.

Fans are all praises for Ye's new Vultures record

With Ye constantly being out for streamers' throats and vice versa, chart domination or even a rank in the Top 10 was naturally a difficult feat to achieve. Therefore, two of the promised three 'Vultures' volumes went by without creating havoc. But just as the claims of irrelevancy were beginning to stack up, Ye's 'Vultures' listening experience broke the glass ceiling, making fans unite to celebrate the rapper's greatness once again.

From reiterating that Ye is and always will be the GOAT to taking the opportunity to blast haters, fans could not have been happier.
