I'm personally kind of torn on this. I haven't listened to a Kanye album since he started talking about liking Nazi's last year. On the other hand, this is a leak and doesn't directly benefit him in any way if I listen to it. Not sure if I'm going to check it out personally but I wanted to let anybody interested know it is out there.
I'd imagine the phone or computer you are on puts more money into terrible peoples pocket than streaming some dickheads music ever will. And I'd also bet if you stream the best person in the worlds music, dickheads will still get money from it
Basically, I get not listening to dumb mfers on principle, but dickheads will always get some of the money you spend ha
You aren't wrong, but if I can cut 1 dickhead out of the equation at no real negative impact to me, then good.
I ended up deciding not to listen to it in the end. Even if listening to leaked songs doesn't profit him directly, I can't in good conscious be entertained by a nazi.
Yeah, I just don't like modern Kanye. Maybe it's his whole shtick affecting my opinion, but I just don't enjoy listening to it anyway. It's nowhere on the level it used to be even if people keep praising it like it is.
There's no ethical consumption under capitalism. I think you're right.
