Kanye West Blasted Over Uncleared Samples


Last week Kanye West released his new album entitled 'Ye [click here if you missed that].'

Apparently Yeezy didn't bother to clear all the music he sampled for the project...

According to reports Kanye West used Kareem Lotfy’s “Fr3sh” from the mono no aware compilation for the track “I Thought About Killing You” without permission.

Experimental Berlin record label Pan tells Pitchfork,
“It’s sadly another case of an artist who capitalizes on culture without any original ideas and because culture trickles up, this means we are all basically working for him. Everything leads to him, he’s the ultimate narcissist.”
