Kanye West maybe caught torrenting audio software

Just another in the long line of dumb producers in pirated audio software scandals with careless screen shots and/or videos:
 
http://www.maxim.com/entertainment/kanye-west-downloading-torrents-serum-2016-3

From that screen shot it looks to me like he was checking out Xfer Records' Serum, the wavetable synth (RRP $189) and then headed right on over to the Pirate Bay to see if there were any good torrents for it. 
 
Which would be extra hypocritical given that he is reported to be interested in suing the Pirate Bay for making it so easy to pirate his new album. 
 
Extra big HA.

Well, to be fair, he is broke at the moment. At least until the check comes in from Zuckerberg.


All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

I think some of those marginal folks that are not as creative as they think, will get their due and lose their appeal. Too many of the things going around are not cool, and eventually the girl will dump him, because he is not bringing in any dough, is my bet!
 
Hate to see another artist on the street, broke and all that ... but it might be his best medicine at this point?

Sadly Bapu, you are in the wrong this time ... I did say that she brings the dough, not him, as he is not bringing in any (or enough)! She's smarter about business propositions than he is with his combative attitudes, which I think have run the course of its time?

By "type," do you mean fonts?

Just be glad he isn't your neighbor or something. I mean, yeah you'd probably have a nice house but you'd still have them for neighbors. It is true that fences make good neighbors but sometimes perhaps a wall is needed.
Do you think he has any idea what a loser he is?

The sad part is that when considering how temporary so much of the rap world is, and tomorrow someone else is the start, folks like him, just are playing silly, and not realizing that they are on the way out, and he is better off just cutting out and concentrate on his music, and forget the rest ... I just hate to see people waste their ability and the rap world has some good folks ... just being thrown by wayside. Some of the poetry and words are actually very good ... sadly, buried in crap beats and no music!

I give them all, everyone, the benefit of the doubt ... it's up to themselves to wake up and be an artist, or an idiot. It's not my call.
 
But seeing someone hit the dumps and then try to pull them out, is harsh and not fun for many folks, not to mention many around them!
