G.O.O.D. Music leader Kanye West has sent a direct message to select white-owned publications this week, including Rolling Stone and New York Times, by asking them to no longer comment on black music.
Yeezy stressed his love for white people but problem with certain publications having an opinion on Twitter Monday (February 15).
G.O.O.D. Music affiliate Rhymefest recently shared his concerns over Kanye’s mental well-being on Twitter.
Reports claim Yeezy’s decision to release his album exclusively through TIDAL has helped the service compete against other streaming companies like Apple and Spotify.
With exclusive streaming rights to Kanye West’s new album The Life of Pablo firmly secured, Tidal has used that as a platform to jump to the top of Apple’s App Store charts as new users eager to hear the rapper’s latest work come on board as subscribers. It’s the first time that the streaming service—which has endured a rocky start since it was relaunched by rapper Jay Z early last year—has hit number one on the app rankings. (Fortune)
Last weekend, Kanye asked fans to join the growing music and entertainment streaming service on Twitter.

the joy of kanye is that like love or hate…he does not lack a will to speak…so many today wont say an unpopular thing out of fear of loosing said groups money….a lot of companys dont have and wont have a single black person working for them cause they flat out hate them … i say ok fine tell me and i will take my business else where…then they counter with whoa…i said hate you and your people but its personal..this is business….how about i give you a feature not ranking or giving your worth not changing my stance…we can hate each other in private but tell your black friends its great so they will buy from us….we will still hate you not hire or rank you but we will give you a feature for black promotion…JustLinesNTP
Kanye why are you such a damn diva. You tell them to stop publishing top 10 lists and reviewing urban music, yet you’re crying when your name is not mentioned by them in the top 10. I used to be a big Kanye fan, but this dude is so self absorbed and brainwashed that i cannot take him serious anymore.
He’d have the black community’s respect on this matter if he didn’t wife and seed America’s most popular white prostitute. He’s a slave to self hate. My issue isn’t with him marrying a white woman. It’s the kind of woman he married, and the family he married into. The mother pimps the daughters out to rich black guys, and Kanye wants a female child raised in that family? If the Kardashians were black, they’d be bashed and derided by men like Kanye. So he can no longer speak on the exploitation of black culture. He perpetuates it.
