Kanye West recently dropped a 45-minute clip titled BULLY V1 on YouTube, featuring his son Saint in a wrestling ring, playing the role of hype man against the soundtrack of Ye's latest beats. This same video previously surfaced during one of Ye's impromptu online rants.

The rapper, who is having major marital problems with Bianca Censori and a nasty custody battle with Kim Kardashian, had his full album made a brief appearance on Apple Music but was promptly taken down.

In defiance, Ye took to social media, proclaiming: "APPLE MUSIC REMOVED BULLY V1, BUT THAT WON'T STOP ME MY MUSIC IS BIGGER THAN THEIR PLATFORMS. I'M SPEAKING DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE, AND NO ONE CAN SILENCE THAT THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF MY FIGHT".

'Bully' initially boasted 10 tracks but showed up on Apple Music with alterations. Notably, the track 'Melrose,' which features Ty Dolla $ign and Playboi Carti, was absent—possibly due to Ye's discordant relations with the artists.

Ty Dolla $ign had openly denounced Ye's anti-Semitic outbursts, while Ye had rebuked Carti for excluding him from an album after Carti had shown an eagerness to work with Ye's daughter, North.

The modified version on Apple Music presented a different track order and spotlighted only one collaborator - Peso Pluma on the tune "Last Breath."

Ye has taken a fresh vocal approach in his latest project, Bully, which unexpectedly leans more on singing than many of his previous works.

Some keen-eared fans have detected a significant presence of artificial intelligence in the album’s vocals.

Originally, Ye intended to drop Bully on June 15 to coincide with his daughter North West's birthday.
