Madonna (also known as Gollum), DeadMau5, Kanye West and Jay Z
Rapper, Kanye West, is embittered by the
fact he has lost approximately $10,000,000 over rap mentor,
Jay Z, deliberately leaking his album "The Life Of Pablo"
which inadvertently enabled the devalued product to be
uploaded on the copyright infringing illegal file sharing
site, the Pirate Bay.
Jay Z/Tidal's plan to grab West's
expensively made album "The Life Of Pablo" from Def Jam, who
underwrote it as a loan/advance to Kanye, backfired. Jay Z,
desperate due to Tidal's costly failure in the marketplace,
illegally sought the album as an exclusive for his and
Madonna's struggling Tidal music streaming site. However,
the plan lost steam when the album was illegally downloaded
on the Pirate Bay nearly 1,00,000 times and spread all over
the internet.
Kanye West was slammed by fellow
Tidal equity holder DeadMau5, who tweeted on Twitter.com, "What
the f**k Kanye West...Can't afford Serum? D*ck" He encouraged
people on Twitter to "Star a Kickstarter to help Kanye West
afford a copy of Serum. He needs a small loan of $200 #prayforyeezy"
Jay Z's deceitful plan for the album to
become a Tidal exclusive, has failed in this regard, as "The
Life Of Pablo" is illegally in the public domain on a number
of sites. While claims of the album being a so-called Tidal
exclusive, did drive up membership, if you read social
networking comments, people only signed up for the free
trial, with the intent of canceling in one month and not
paying a dime. They did the same regarding Rihanna's flopped
album "Anti." The public is not amused at being asked to pay
$19.99 per month to stream Tidal's limited catalog.
West, who is $53,000,000 in debt and could
have used the $10,000,000 he lost from Jay Z calling in a
favor to him (over his days at Jay Z's former label
Rocafella) is angry over the lost of funds and for the first
time in his career, not charting on Billboard, as Tidal did
not report the streams of "The Life Of Pablo" took a dig at
his mentor.

West posted a photo on Twitter revealing his
laptop. People on social networking immediately recognized
that West was illegally downloading from the Pirate Bay
website. People began stating West is a hypocrite for asking
the public to spend $19.99 per month on Tidal membership,
when he is not on Tidal, opting to steal via the Pirate Bay
website.
West knew exactly what he was doing. It was
not a mistake. He is angry with Jay Z and company over the
damage Tidal has done to his career. West's costly "The Life
Of Pablo" album took 3-years and a small army of people to
record. West did not want it branded a chart failure and a
flop. West's ego can't take it. Neither can his already
damaged mental state.
Jay Z to Kanye West: you owe me!
West is struggling with mental illness
sustained at the Kabbalah Center cult and is currently on
antipsychotic medications for schizophrenia, as well as
medicines for bipolar and anger issues. His marriage to
demanding reality star, Kim Kardashian, is imploding and he
is struggling with massive debt.
The last thing West needed was a career
flop. West heavily prizes his career and identifies it with
his self-worth. Everything is happen to West at one time and
for someone with the aforementioned psychiatric issues, it
can result in a complete mental breakdown.
