Kanye West Reportedly Did Not Clear Backstreet Boys’ “Everybody” Sample For New Album

Jean Benoit — Tue, 12 Dec 2023 13:27:43 +0000

Kanye West faced a potential setback with his upcoming joint project with Ty Dolla Sign, “Vultures.” A snippet of a song from the album, featuring a sample of the Backstreet Boys’ “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back),” was previewed by Ye. However, the use of the sample may currently pose legal challenges, as copyright issues can arise when artists use samples without proper clearance or licensing. It remains to be seen how this potential hurdle will impact the album’s release. Sources linked to the Backstreet Boys told TMZ that Ye never reached out to the members of the band nor their management for permission to interpolate the song.

The song was also previewed live on Monday night in Miami, which brought out special guests including Offset, Freddie Gibbs, Lil Durk, Kodak Black, Chris Brown, and even Kanye’s daughter North West.

André 3000 has released an instrumental album titled “New Blue Sun,” co-produced by Carlos Niño. This eight-track project marks André’s return to music, and it comes 17 years after OutKast’s album “Idlewild,” which was long considered their final project as a duo. The instrumental album features contributions from various talented musicians, and the track titles add a creative touch to the overall experience. André 3000 explained in a recent interview that the album’s title and one of the tracks, “Dreams Once Buried Beneath The Dungeon Floor Slowly Sprout Into Undying Gardens,” intentionally reference the Dungeon Family collective, an essential part of the OutKast story.

“I wouldn’t be able to play flute or any of this stuff. I wouldn’t have produced any of this if it wasn’t for the Dungeon,” 3 Stacks said of the sustaining importance of his earlier Dungeon Family period. “So the Dungeon was the dirt.”
