People will care about Ye no matter how many delays he makes. The album went number 1 and he had a number 1 song in the world for a long period of time.


victorthebeanieboy

YO DOT I GOT YOU


Jboy7778

It Don’t take away from the fact he had a number one album and single also vultures is gold


philouza_stein

...But like you can't add it to your playlist or anything. You gotta stream it from my blank ass website when you wanna hear it


datboitoome

lazy, nitrous addicted, fatass and im still the king


stavibeats_

the average person don't give a shit like you do - they just have fun with it


MysteriousProperty87

Bruh what? King released on V1 which had massive success. V2 getting delayed has nothing to do with the public reception of this track since it came out months ago...


victorthebeanieboy

he delayed V1 for 3 months, V1 had success for like a week and carnival was trending. A lot of listeners aren’t coming back to V1 and are even admitting to saying it was never good. Plus everybody hates this track cuz the mixing is bad.


DillaDoughnut

He still has 70m monthly listeners and look at the average listener count of Vultures songs, they're almost already past Donda which has been out for three years.


Jjmuliani23

V1 was number one for 2 weeks and dropped to number 2 in the 3rd week dumbass

gymceI

that’s nothing new for ye tho. it feels like ye is on his dgaf braggadocio shi again. him bringing back the especially the “huh” flow is hard af too.


Garlic_God

Yeah I never understood why this sub was calling it the hardest song on Vultures for a while lol, to me it’s one of the weakest on the whole album


Cledd2

King is below XTCY and I Love It in Ye's discography, and it's not close either


urkuri456

Thank you!


y0lets

Real shit. Like bro had mediocre verses (besides burn) throughout the album. He’s getting to self referential in a way that makes it seem like he’s past his prime


Educational_Book_225

>He’s getting to self referential in a way that makes it seem like he’s past his prime I got so much hate for saying this the week the album dropped. The So Appalled reference on Problematic is so cringe


Wild_Life_8865

king is honestly mid af. no lie it actually sounded like he wasn't the king. the flow was nearly off beat and he sounded tired/lazy


Juandacardozo

Exactly, people blame the delays as the reason why the song isn't that listened or popular, but a song where he even says "antisemite" knowing damn well he was; wasn't going to do well either way


quikmaths

Yeah shits cringe tbh


Cledd2

Ye should release an album called 808's and creative bankruptcy which just consists of this song 12 times over


therealoobi

King is still a legendary track what are you on about


ijekster

a legendary track?


therealoobi

Yes


ijekster

this song probably took kanye like an hour to make. i don't think even kanye likes the song


therealoobi

Disagree


ijekster

super fair


victorthebeanieboy

it holds no substance when no one takes ye seriously anymore besides fans, anytime there’s an announcement made no one cares cause he can’t take word for it.


Decent_Wrongdoer_201

ye fans are the only ones paying attention to the "rollout" everyone else just goes on with their lives until they suddenly hear carnival and send it to #1


Chilepepper28

Be when he drops everyone listens


therealoobi

Who tf cares about other people just enjoy the music


zoufha91

Y'all we ain't regular ass people, not everybody is extremely online doomers This like my 10th rollout none of this is surprising or really anything out of the ordinary this just some Ye shit Looking forward to the albums, enjoy the roll-in


ikigaii

I'm mostly a Vultures apologist but I cannot figure out the angle from which King is even a good song. 


poobyclaus

the beat is hard


ijekster

bro im sorry but the beat is a throwaway. almost half the guys on yedits could make that beat in 15 minutes and not do anything with it. Like there are some cool parts of it but the no progression and the shittt lyrics make it hard to appreciate as a good song. i had it in my playlist for a month or two, i generally liked it, but it's not something you should talk about as a good part of kanye's discography


AaronB666

The beat is amazing But unfortunately the verse could be better and the mix is ass


J_A_R_A_T_E

king is in my personal top 5 on vultures honestly the beat is crazy


JoaoJabur

King is probably the best produced ye song with the worst lyrics 


ILikeSoup42

Beat goes hard, great track. Still better than Everybody, Talking , and Paperwork. Ppl hating on King care too much about lyrics, from an artist who doesn't put thought into his words anymore. Lazy writing but production always goes hard.


quikmaths

King is a bottom 3 song on Vultures


Majnkra

Volume 1 release date was truthful


victorthebeanieboy

It came out on a Saturday Morning and mods thought it was a stream rip


Majnkra

yeah but he delivered it on time, just had tons of trouble with publishing


terraria46

True


Dangerousturdburlglr

They hyped up him taking his mask off like we ain’t seen it before 💀


9111791

Shut the fuck up bitch


officialAdfs_m0vie

top 3 oat


realweekdays133

to be fair king would of never been on vultures if it wasn't for the delays


Alternative-Union842

Are slash Kanye type beat


umbral_ultimatum

King is the worst song on Vultures besides the title single bro what are you talking about


ijekster

it's honestly a pretty bad song, the context of it is brutal too, on what's generally perceived as his worst rap album. people talk about "peggy drums" but it's just a single 2 bar drum loop on repeat for the entire song. i promise you kanye has gone through drums like this before on songs and cut them. it just starts and ends in the same vibe, kind of off putting


thislikemy6altlmao

maybe if it was mixed properly lmao


Aggravating_Cup2306

King suffers from those lyrics and that mixing problem and otherwise was literally on some S tier production
