Why Kanye’s New Album Just Vanished From Apple Music

Less than a week after Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s latest album, a joint effort called Vultures, finally hit streaming services after months of delays, the music distributor FUGA announced on Thursday that it is “actively working with its DSP partners and the client to remove Vultures 1 from our systems,” Billboard reported.

“Late last year, FUGA was presented with the opportunity to release Vultures 1,” a spokesperson explained in a statement to Billboard. “Exercising our judgment in the ordinary course of business, we declined to do so.”

“On Friday, February 9, 2024, a long-standing FUGA client delivered the album Vultures 1 through the platform’s automated processes, violating our service agreement,” the spokesperson continued. “Therefore, FUGA is actively working with its DSP partners and the client to remove Vultures 1 from our systems.”
