“The sequel to the rappers’ collab album from February is even shoddier in construction and execution than its predecessor.”
“some of Ye’s most jaded, degraded moments”
“In February, Ye (the former Kanye West) shocked the music industry when Vultures I, the first of a planned trilogy with Ty Dolla $ign as Y$, opened at Number One on the Billboard 200 chart. It was only a year ago when Ye’s rank antisemitism and adoration of white supremacists prompted an exodus of corporate supporters. Then, with Vultures I, he joined a wave of “canceled” men reestablishing ties w”
“Disappointing. Is what I would say if you told me to describe this album in one word. Why did Ye and Ty think they could get three albums out within 4 months with this work pace? Tracks SLIDE, FIELD TRIP, FRIED, PROMOTION, RIVER, and LIFESTYLE is what stops me from putting this in the 5 range. Everything else is either unfinished, rushed, AI’ed, or BOMB. The first half of the album (SLIDE - DEAD) is overall a pretty good experience ( the exception of the AI on 530.) The other half of the album (FOREVER ROLLING - MY SOUL) is rushed, lazy and just flat out unlistenable. BOMB is most definitely the worst song on Ye’s, Ty’s, and North’s entire discography. It’s one thing to be a nepo baby and get your song, that I don’t care, but it’s the fact that they heard this and released this monstrosity. All of the other tracks are either okay, bad, or AI’ed. I don’t have anything else to say about this. If VULTURES 3 ever actually releases, I really hope they take their time on it, because this was just flat out disappointing.”
“Nowhere near the quality of music Ye and Dolla $ign should be making. Whole album feels unfinished and forced out, and the use of AI is the final nail in the coffin - is the only real stain in Ye's catalog.”
“Vultures 2 was a rough listen. Field trip was my favorite song but he was sloppy again. I mean adding 530 twice don’t get me wrong it’s a great song but it just shows that he wasn’t locked in on this album.”
“use to be 1.5 because of field trip but now it’s js 1 because of forever rolling and slide, AI SLOP”
