Really hope that this doesn't happen !

Quote:
“The 38-year-old star wants to pay tribute to the legendary performer by recording a mix of straight cover version, and some with Ye's own influence.

A source said: "Some are straightforward cover versions with Kanye actually singing. On others he is rapping with his own lyrics over Bowie's music."”

Why does he think he has to do everything?

Stop doing stuff, Kanye! His Bohemian Rhapsody was bad enough.

The best tribute he can pay to David Bowie is not release this album at all.

Don't see the big deal really...don't like Kanye so wouldn't be buying or listening to it.

As a positive it might encourage people to seek out the original material from Bowie when they might not have...as it certainly is't going to appeal to Bowie fans.

Would Bowie's estate (which I believe is mainly his Son Duncan) have a say in this?

He really needs to stay well away from Bowie's music. He really does think he's Gods gift, doesn't he?

This story is probably BS.. Started because of the conspiracy theory that Bowie is standing under a K. West sign on ziggy stardust album. If it is true then the timing of it just makes it seems like a money grab instead of a genuine tribute. I kind of hope it is true just because it's causing so much 'outrage'

AVOID. AVOID. AVOID.

Look at when the likes of Akon and will.i.am added their **ahem** golden touch to those Michael Jackson songs for the Thriller 25th Anniversary album in 2008.

Dreadful with a capital DREADFUL.

If you want to hear a perfectly legitimate reason why this shouldn't happen, go and listen to Been Around The World by Puff Daddy feat. The Notorious B.I.G. & Ma$e.

(no link included, go listen at your own risk)

I will go for that at the moment. ..and If anyone should do a Bowie tribute album. Should be Til Lindemann. .sharleen spiteri..apocalyptica..Bauhaus...Tony Visconti..etc..

Meh!

That sounds about right. .and if true it will be probably piss poor..I'm just going to stop trying to imagine Kanye and his version of heroes. .with the 'soulful' yep yep..in actual fact I don't think I have heard Kanye West. .right brb you tube now...

Have listened to a few Kanye West now..vocoder is his game..wow. .reeky. .but the back tracks were great...not my cup of music tbh..so..

Noooooooooo
