Kanye is PISSED... And for good reason this time!
A few days ago an apparently new song leaked to the internet titled 'Mamas Boyfriend'. Now although the vocals are definitely Yeezy's, the beat isn't.
See what had happened was...
Somebody around Kanye got hold of the vocals for the track and either put them on a beat or gave the vocals to someone who could.
The Chicago rapper released a statement on Wednesday evening saying-
“The version of the Kanye West recording “Mama’s Boy” that arrived on blog sites earlier this week is entirely bogus and unsanctioned, and violates the artist’s creative intentions. As is often the unfortunate case, an unknown party or parties got a hold of Kanye West’s vocal track and added their own soundbed to it, effectively and falsely releasing it as a Kanye West track from the My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy sessions. The result in no way resembles the final song Kanye West intended his fans to hear, and he is deeply disappointed that one of the most personal, meaningful and special songs he has ever written would reach people in this way. Needless to say, measures are being taken to identify and prosecute the persons responsible for leaking this material.”
To be honest, I did think something wasn't right about the track when I first listened to it. The lyrics are the usual level of dopeness you'd expect from him, but it does at times sound off beat. The track, which was said to be left overs from the 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy', talks about Kanye's life growing up with his mother and I think this is the reason why he is even more hurt than if it were another song. Donda West passed away from complications after plastic surgery on November 10th, 2007.
