Kanye West is first independent artist to go number one on Spotify

Kanye West returned to the spotlight, determined to get everything back. In his career, he’s done almost everything imaginable. When he began his career, he was a producer. Back then, his goal was to produce for the biggest artists in the game. The result was him producing “Izzo (H.O.V.A.)” for Jay-Z. After that, he decided to become the biggest artist in the game. As a result, he dropped “Jesus Walks.” Quite a bit has changed and now he’s independent. With that, he made history with Vultures being the top album on Spotify.

Kanye West made his debut in 2004 and immediately took the game over. During that period of time, hip hop was making a transition. This transition was perfect for a rapper like Kanye to take over. Now, almost every rapper also has the ability to make his own beats. However, none of that was enough for him. While the music was successful, Kanye wanted true ownership. As a result, he began working to bring his clothing ideas to life.

Kanye West is currently in the midst of relaunching his Yeezy clothing company. Aside from that, he dropped his new album with Ty Dolla $ign. Keeping it in the family, he has his daughter, North West, on the lead single. In addition, Kanye West had the commercial during the Super Bowl that ended up taking all of the attention. Now, he’s back in the headlines, as Vultures is Spotify’s number one album. As a result, Ye is the first indie artist to go number one on their charts.
