US magazine about “Vultures”: “Continuous line of sound”
“Variety” concluded the following after the listening party: “’Vultures’ is an album that seems to have a continuous sound line, with plucking synth bass and a galloping tempo. West and Ty leave plenty of room for guest musicians, and there are plenty of them. Nicki Minaj delivers a verse on the highly anticipated finished version of ‘New Body’, while Gibbs makes a show-stopping guest appearance on ‘Back to Me’, produced by West’s longtime collaborator 88-Keys. In the latter song, they quote a clip from the film ‘Dogma’ in which co-star Jason Mewes says: ‘Beautiful women with big tits don’t just fall from the sky, you know,’ which West repeats over and over again.”
Release date and band name
The collaboration between the two will have the project name ¥$ – the yen sign stands for Ye (as Kanye West now calls himself), the dollar sign for his colleague. An official release date is not yet known, many are speculating a release on December 15, 2023.
