Black Metal Band Cradle Of Filth Repulsed By Kanye West’s T-Shirt

    Apparently, the black metal band Cradle of Filth is too cool for Kanye West. In a Facebook post created last Wednesday (March 15), the band reacted negatively to a paparazzi photo originally posted by Daily Mail that caught West going out for dinner in Los Angeles wearing a long-sleeved T-shirt displaying the name of the outrageously dark Suffolk outfit.

    “Kanye West. Cradle Of Filth fan. Fortunately not a collaborator,” the post read, making it clear the members of the group want nothing to do with Yeezy. West, however, presumably has better things to do than sweat what the longtime metal band thinks of him. The celebrated rapper was just featured on Drake’s recent More Life track, “Glow,” and is most likely working on some kind of masterpiece that may or may not involve a NASA theme. Whatever the case, fans of The Life Of Pablo won’t have to worry about demon-faced death metal artists popping up on his next project — at least not yet.

      1. Whatever, And so did Beyoncé on her album!! What about Drake!! I guess they frauds too?? Lots of Famous/popular Artist have multiple/many co-writers and producers. I guess Beyoncé a “fraud” too. Sometimes it’s because they want an album where there are a VARIETY of songs so they have a different producer, etc. AND, it doesn’t mean the songwriter is writing the entire song–it can be a “hook line” a chorus or ONE sentence….u have to give them credit for being a more original “rapper” than most.
        Regardless of his latest antics, don’t take his GIFTS as a true Artist away from him cause u don’t like him personally.

        1. Drake is a Fraud never heard anybody saying that. Of. Course he is a Fraud too. And Beyonce is a Pop Singer who never claimed to be a musically Genius like the 6Fraud and/or Kanye

    1. While I’ll be the first to call Kanye out on a lot of his . . . you cant argue that he has been an innovator and musical genius – much better than banging some drums and screaming about misery

      1. LMFAO. You trolling?? Dude has 20 Songwriters and 10 Producers helping him doing “His” Music. Dude is a Fraud as Musician and as a Designer

    2. Some rappers, young folks rock T-shirts of bands that they probably never heard of…If anything, the band gets free publicity. It’s just a fashion fad right now…

    3. I love hip hop and I like a lot of metal but my god, the 2 should never come close to one another. Maybe rock an old school hip hop group on your T shirt like ATCQ, De La, Heavy D, Brand Nubian, Run-DMC or Grandmaster Flash… why Cradle of Filth?? That’s some goth shit right there, you’re just asking for a negative response

    4. Wow dude metal insnt about screaming and misery if you took the time and listen to it you would see that it’s about revenge, betrayal, death, and, fighting, and not all of it is satanic like alot of people say. The people that say that only think it is cuz of the screaming and fast and loud instruments.

    5. as a huge CoF fan myself (especially their body of music from the mid-90s-to-mid-2000s) i too am repulsed by this idiot wearing that shirt

    6. btw i don’t think even the band themselves define their music as black metal. here’s a quote from Paul Allender 2006 interview with Terrorizer magazine: “We were never a black metal band. The only thing that catered to that was the make-up. Even when The Principle of Evil Made Flesh came out—you look at Emperor and Burzum and all that stuff—we didn’t sound anything like that. The way that I see it is that we were, and still are now, an extreme metal band.”

      1. if you listen to their first 3 records and say they weren’t trying to be black metal you’re retarded. paul allender was the one who tried to carry them into hard-rock territory, he fought the hardest against their black metal sound and gave shit like Thornography. Principle of Evil Made Flesh and V Empire are black metal records.

    7. This is another guy who needs to call it quits on the music. TLOP was literally the worst thing I heard the entire year. Just absolute nonsense every track and maybe half of a couple tracks were decent. You got like 3 classics man, just stop it.

        1. That’s cool… still not worthy of a story and trolls bashing each other. I doubt all 10 of the Cradle of Filth fans will see this “story”

    8. I like that they called him out. They should of went further and said they know he’s not a fan and just did it for fashion and attention. He had that nervous breakdown and now he dressing dark and supposedly listening to death metal? That’s as full blown of a look at me, talk about me gesture as you can get. He’s like those 18 year old girls wearing Rolling Stones sleeveless tees even though they’ve never listened to them. Just because its in style to listen to some obscure or way before your time band.
