Kanye West is fresh off dropping his 10th studio album titled DONDA. The much anticipated project has since been a subject of discussion for music lovers and Hip Hop critics offline and online.
However, Grammy Award-winning composer Antman Wonder has called out the “Hurricane” artist on social media.
Antman is claiming that the rapper and business mogul has not properly credited his, as well as several other artists’, contributions to Donda. “A little over a year ago I was tasked with helping a homie out writing on a record that happened to be for #DONDA,” Antman Wonder, who won a Grammy in 2019 for his production on Anderson .Paak’s “Bubblin,” begin in a lengthy post.
“And The record finally dropped and some folks names were left off the credits (mine being one of them). So with all the fanfare and hype, and records being broken, I can’t even celebrate a win because technically I’m not a part of it.”
He continued to share his perspective on the situation and offered receipts as well, in the form of an audio clip that he argues was used in the outro for Donda standout track “Believe What I Say.”
“I don’t believe in protecting shitty business practices with silence,” Antman Wonder explained.
“Nothing should ever be released before it’s licensed or contracted. Whether this gets handled today or tomorrow, music shouldn’t be released without taking care of the musicians. This composition is from the outro of #believewhatisay (ironic).”
