As Kanye West continues to tweet his heart out, the G.O.O.D. Music founder seems to be growing increasingly more transparent.
On Wednesday morning (September 16), the 43-year-old artist shared all 10 of his contracts with Universal Music Group/Sony after asking “every lawyer in the world” to take a look at them — despite being completely blurry.
He added in the caption, “This is what me Kanye West deal looks like today … I PRAY IN THE NAME OF JESUS THAT IT DONT LOOK LIKE THIS TOMORROW.”
Kanye added, “THIS MOMENT IS GOING TO CHANGE THE MUSIC INDUSTRY FOR GOOD … I FEEL SO HUMBLED AND BLESSED THAT GOD HAS PUT ME IN A STRONG ENOUGH PETITION TO DO THIS … EVERYONE KEEP PRAYING … ITS WORKING … I AM ON MY KNEES THIS MORNING.”
Ye has been on a crusade to get out of his contracts with Sony/UMG for quite some time. Earlier this week, he vowed not to put out any more music until he was released from the contracts — and hasn’t let up.
“EVERYONE AT UNIVERSAL AND VIVENDI PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT I WILL DO EVERYTHING IN MY LEGAL POWER AND USE MY VOICE UNTIL ALL ARTIST CONTRACTS ARE CHANGED STARTING WITH GETTING MY MASTERS FOR MY CHILDREN,” he wrote in all caps on Wednesday. “I WILL NOT STOP I PROMISE YOU IM AM PETTY AND VERY PERSONAL”

He included, “SONY YOU NOT OFF THE HOOK EITHER … ONE BATTLE AT A TIME.”
Kanye also accused UMG of refusing to name their price for his masters out of fear he’ll actually cough up the money while forgiving them at the same time.
“UNIVERSAL WONT TELL ME WHAT MY MASTERS COST BECAUSE THEY KNOW I CAN AFFORD TO BUY THEM,” he wrote. “I forgive everyone from the music industry that is involved with modern day slavery. Vengeance is only the lords.”
Elsewhere in Kanye’s latest Twitter rampage, he suggested Michael Jackson and Prince were simply victims of the music industry.
“Let’s get it big bro … you and Michael passed so we can live,” he wrote. “We used to diss Michael Jackson the media made us call him crazy … then they killed him. In the streaming world master ownership is everything… that is the bulk of the income … in COVID artist need our masters … it’s more important than ever before.”

my god he has gone mad.
Let me guess…you work for a record company that is making hundreds of millions from streaming because your record company owns the masters for all of your artists.
Nah he just an Attention seeking, Narcissist. The media way too easily impressed. He dumb af. But media rewards him for being cry baby. Kamala and Biden announced they will legalize marijuana Today. Right on time, maga ye conveniently hogs the mic with another choreographed”meltdown”
Predictable that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris would LIE to get votes.
decriminalization is a STATE issue and every state can choose whether to do it or not and many states have already decriminalized it and in those that haven’t decriminalized most look the other way whether it’s whites or blacks smoking weed.
In actual fact Joe Biden WROTE the 1994 crime bill that has put millions of black men in prison and many for weed and Kamala Harris locked up lots of black people and white people for weed when she was San Francisco District Attorney.
Nope, look it up dumbass. U ain’t even fact checked
Kanye’s thinking is on another level compared to 99% of the people.
That is how he became a multi-billionaire through music and sneakers and fashion despite being just another black dude from Chicago.
That is why he also seems crazy to many in the 99% of people and Kanye is also emotional and shows what he feels in a world when many hide their feelings and just pose and live as a facade.
Media also is trying to do to Kanye what media did to Michael Jackson.
Imagine a world where EVERY artist OWNS their masters.
Hip hop whitey no his thinking is not better than 99% of people. You are just way too easily impressed, when people chat shot.
*Chat shIt
NICCA PLEAZE!!!!!!! Looney Ye is certifiable COO COO! You can’t complain IF YOU SIGNED and AGREED to a contract … Either DO SIGN or STFU and do it INDIE, but his BS is TOO MUCH! #BurningMoreBridgesThan He’sBuilding
Kayne been listening to too much R Kelly again lol
Finally Kanye’s speaking some sense – he has my attention. Good idea to buy those masters. Sell some of that land he’s got and put the money where it really counts.
Taylor Swift spent 300 million dollars buying her masters and Kanye’s catalog is worth more and Universal/Vivendi refuses to even quote a price for Kanye to buy his masters because they think he might have money to buy it but Kanye would need to sell part of Yeezy since Kanye has not got hundreds of millions of liquid cash in the bank.
Boo hoo.
Satan told him to do big distraction so that ppl distracted and Trump re elected. If slavery a choice, y he mad at slave contract? He chose it. He treats g.o.o.d. music artists the same. Anyone thinking ye gonna save u, is dumb af. How many ppl he gotta throw under bus before u notice?
I’ve had enough of this guy. I was a fan of his music but I’m finished. He’s too stupid to admit to liking these days.
