Just a day after releasing &#039;Vultures 1&#039;, Kanye West steals a top Spotify spot that Drake and The Weeknd have been battling it out for.

Kanye West Surpasses Drake and The Weeknd to Secure This Spotify Rank a Day After ‘Vultures 1’

Kanye West [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/kanye-west] has finally made his
much-awaited comeback to the music scene. While he had been promising fans a
collaborative album with Ty Dolla $ign, it kept getting pushed. Now, just
yesterday, ‘Vultures 1’ finally made its way online and sent fans into a
complete frenzy. With everyone rushing to check out Ye’s latest album, the
streams have skyrocketed the star above The Weeknd, and his rival, Drake, on
Spotify.

After nearly 3 years of focusing on everything except for his music, the rapper
gave his fans exactly what they were hoping for. In fact, they might have even
returned the favor.


KANYE WEST’S LATEST SPOTIFY ACHIEVEMENT

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), it was revealed that Kanye West had become
Spotify’s #2 Top Global Artist after ‘Vultures 1’ had dropped. While the rapper
had once been pretty high up on the list, recent times have seen Taylor Swift
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/taylor-swift/] dominate the top spot

Although Ye might have a hard time trying to keep up with the pop sensation and
her massive streaming success, it looks like the rapper might be in a league of
his own.

Just a while ago, Spotify’s list had shown that the 46-year-old had been pushed
out of the Top Ten. However, it seems as though he has managed to find his way
back to the top. With the rapper claiming a top spot just a day after the
release of his brand new album, there is no doubt that his Ty Dolla $ign
collaboration is what pushed the father of four over the top.

While ‘Vultures 1’ seems to be doing extremely well, West shocked fans just
hours after the album dropped as every track seemed to disappear from streaming
platforms.


KANYE WEST’S ‘VULTURES 1’ RAN INTO TECHNICAL ISSUES

Yesterday marked a huge victory for fans of Kanye West. While some had lost hope
in his ‘Vultures 1’ album release, thanks to the delays, others were still
holding onto hope. Thankfully for them, the Ty Dolla $ign collaboration made its
way online and floored everyone. However, just 6-7 hours after the album showed
up on streaming platforms, it was suddenly removed for almost an hour.

While all of Ye’s tracks eventually made their way back to Apple Music and more,
Spotify users still had to wait before they got to access the epic album. For
them, the Yeezy creator’s highly anticipated project was not released until
nearly noon the next day.
