On March 30th Kanye West just dropped his long awaited album Bully on Saturday after a bunch of delays and it's already blowing up the charts. The lead track, Father featuring Travis Scott, hit number one on Apple Music's top songs with a video of them both in a church. Several other cuts from the album are dominating too, like all the love at number three, King at number four, Punch Drunk at number six. This amused at number eight and whatever works at number nine. Meanwhile, the distributor for Bully clapped back at early streaming reports, saying the album pulled in close to 50 million streams on Spotify in its first full day way more than the 33.2 million some outlets claimed. That puts it among the year's biggest debuts right up there with BTS and Harry Styles. Father alone racked up 4.1 million global streams on Spotify that first day, making it a monster hit. Fans are buzzing about how this crushes other hip hop releases, outpacing even J Cole's numbers and marking Kanye's strongest streaming start in.
Years. On top of the chart takeover, West is gearing up for a global tour. Headlining shows in the Netherlands in Italy, plus his first Los Angeles gig, since 2021 at SoFi Stadium this April. This comeback follows his public apology to the Jewish community back in January, where he owned up to losing touch with reality and regretting his. Actions, now he's channeling that energy into music and stages worldwide.
