The announcement follows North’s recent musical debut on her father’s collaborative album with Ty Dolla $ign, Vultures 1. Her track “Talking” made waves, propelling her to become one of the youngest artists ever to feature on the Billboard Hot 100.
At the Vultures 2 event, North’s performance was a family affair, as Kanye West also brought out his younger children, Psalm and Chicago, while North captivated the audience with her rendition of “Talking.”
During the listening party, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign treated fans to previews of eight songs from the upcoming Vultures 2 album, featuring collaborations with Future, Playboi Carti, Lil Durk, and others. West hinted at a unique release strategy, suggesting that the album may not be available on streaming platforms but rather sold directly to fans through his website.
In discussions with fan accounts, West proposed selling the album for $20 on his website, citing the success of previous merchandise sales on Yeezy.com. This direct-to-fan approach aims to bypass potential issues encountered with streaming services, such as copyright disputes and alterations to tracks.
North’s debut album announcement marks an exciting chapter in her burgeoning music career, with fans eagerly anticipating the release of “Elementary School Dropout.”
