We're hoping VULTURES 2 is the wildest album rollout of 2024. We can't imagine an album being more scattered and confusing than this, much less conceive of an artist who could get away with it. The album has been a talking point for all the wrong reasons, between streaming removals, sample clearances, and the rumor that Kanye West used AI to complete his verses.

That's good enough for a number two spot on the Billboard 200. In a separate tweet, Chart Data noted that the number two debut will end Kanye West's streak of having albums top the charts. To make things even worse, Taylor Swift will be the artist who ends it.
Swift will continue to hold down the top spot with her most recent album, The Tortured Poets Departments . As we previously noted , Swift put out four new versions of the album on August 8. Innocuous enough on the surface, but fans were quick to point out the fact that West dropped four versions of VULTURES 2 the same day.
