Lying

Tell me, tell me, tell me lies
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)

Oh, no, no you can’t disguise

We’re only just recovering from the tweet storms that plagued us during Kanye West’s album release last month. He said many things. Many, many things in the course of promoting the album including the streaming platform(s) it would (not) be available on.

After waxing lyrical about how his new album, The Life of Pablo would only ever be able on TIDAL, Kanye West has released one of the singles on Apple Music. The song in question is Famous, featuring Rihanna, where he made…unsavory comments about Taylor Swift.

I checked, and there it was, staring at me, ready to be streamed.Apple Music kanyeI’m not sure how to react to this, to be honest. I waited for up to 11 days after the album was officially released because I was waiting for an Apple Music roll out. I gave up when I saw him tweet that it would never be on Apple’s streaming platform.

In light of this, who knows what other untrue statements he made while trying to promote the album. Is he really $53 million in debt?
