Kanye

Wow

A group of attorneys representing Kanye West are planning to take out large newspaper ads to inform the rapper they are no longer providing him legal services.

Lawyers for the firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP said in docs reviewed by TMZ that West, 45, has shut off the phone number they had to contact him with, leading to 'a breakdown in communication' with the ex-husband of Kim Kardashian.

The attorneys said that their firm has sought to notify West via 'alternative means' of telling West that they were no longer representing him, along with publishing a court order issued by a judge permitting the severance of the professional relationship.

The attorneys said that the planned ads are a last-ditch idea, as they have been trying to contact West about the issue, but he has been unresponsive.

This is...not good.

I hope he's able to get the help he needs. And soon.

Thank you Jonah Hill. Who knew his performance in 21 Jump Street was this powerful.

Hey guys, I started a podcast called Sample Mining that highlights some of the greatest samples used in hip-hop history and I'd love if you'd check it out!

This podcast focuses on a single sample per episode. I play clips and offer the listener a chance to guess it. Then I tell a story related to it, whether that be the story behind a 90's sample that traces its roots back to the mid 1800's, or the story of how a song came to life because of a movie director's dream from his early-20's. I don't just want to say 'hey, here's a cool sample', I want to make sure I'm telling a story, as I feel that's much more interesting.

Episodes 4 and 9 feature Kanye tracks and there will be a full episode dedicated to him in the future. Check it out if you’re interested!

Cool idea, will check it out. Somewhat related: I was surprised to find out that all the drums on Pretty Hate Machine are sampled from other records. Maybe in a spin off episode, you could touch on famous non-hip hop records that use samples. Another that comes to mind is Poe's Angry Johnny sampling The Blackbyrds and The Rascals.

Appreciate the support! Hope you enjoy it! Episode 10 is a bonus episode airing next week that touches on some rock, pop and even country samples. I'll definitely have to check that one and some others out. Thanks!

It's on most podcast platforms. I've had a couple people say they can't find it there for some reason. But here's the link: Sample Mining
