These social media platforms have released their new album Bully on X, as well as several versions of a short film edited by famous music video director Hype Williams.
In the video, his son, saint, whom the rapper gives credit as an inspiration behind the album. In the short film, Saint is shown in a wrestling ring, which defends himself against the attackers for 30 minutes. According to the variety, the wrestler included New Japan Pro-Resident to Yoh, Toru Yano, Tiger Mask and L. Desprado.
Initially, West shared a link to the Bully Soundtrack film on X, claiming that the album was “incomplete and half tone was AI-Janit“. He said that his goal was to test the reactions of the audience. Hours later, he uploaded three versions of the title track bulley, including the “screenser version,” a “post-heip version,” and another label “post-haip version”.
In an interview with Justin Laboy last month, Tu revealed that Bully was inspired by his son, saint, which he had described as “bullying”, when the boy accepted to kick the second child to be “weak”. He also mentioned that he intended to release the album on 15 June on his daughter North’s birthday.
Explaining why he released the album directly on X, the rapper said he was trying to bypass traditional streaming services. “I can stop using DSPS (digital service providers such as Apple Music and Spotify) because they are fake, and treat artists such as French and Jewish record label prostitutes,” he wrote.
