Ye and Ty Dolla $ign finally release the highly anticipated “Vultures 2”.
After months of anticipation, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign have surprise-released their new album, “Vultures 2,” on DSPs. This release came just hours after they dropped the song “Slide” on yeezy.com and live-streamed the album on YouTube. The duo had long teased this second installment, even before the first “Vultures” was released. West initially announced that the second and third parts would drop on March 8 and April 5, respectively, but there has been little news about the third volume since then. After an announcement last week, the collaborative project has finally been released and it features guests like Young Thug, Future, 070 Shake, Kodak Black, Don Toliver, Lil Durk, Lil Baby, and West’s daughters, North and Chicago. Although “Vultures 2” faced numerous production setbacks and received mixed reviews, its release has sparked debate about West’s future as an artist. The reception of the third instalment will be closely watched as its release approaches.

Adele makes Germany concert history in day one of her 10-day show.
While taking a self-described “summer break” from her Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace, Adele has crossed the pond to perform in Europe for the first time since 2016. She will have a ten-night residency in Munich this August. The shows will take place at a specially built 75,000-capacity pop-up arena at Messe München, designed to bring her closer to her fans. The first sold-out show drew an audience of about 80,000, making it the most attended international female concert in Munich’s history. The 16-time Grammy winner had earlier announced in July that she plans to take a “big break” from music following these performances. She told German broadcaster ZDF, “My tank is quite empty at the minute. I don’t have any plans for new music at all,” breaking the hearts of so many fans.
