THOUSANDS SIGN PETITION TO STOP KANYE RECORDING DAVID BOWIE TRIBUTE ALBUM


David Bowie was one of the most original and influential artists of the past forty years so there was some consternation when rumours circulated that Kanye West intending to record a David Bowie tribute album. According to the Daily Star, the 38-year-old star will look to record a mix of straightforward covers with just a little Kanye influence.

And it seems we weren’t alone in our reservations though, as some 5000 people have actually signed a petition to stop him making said tribute. The Yeezus star is said to have already begun laying down some tracks – such as Heroes and Rebel, Rebel in the studio.

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.”

WTF!? Stop the Cunt of Glatso! Sign!

 

[Wrong Element]

Kanye can't sing and I'm not sure why he keeps trying, but aside from that, this is a dumb petition -- one that Bowie himself would have been unlikely to endorse.

If William Shatner doesn't make a Bowie tribute album, this will have to do.

 

[Not Normal]

The only true way for this to be thwarted is if the copyright owners (which may or may not be Bowie's estate) do not approve the release. Kanye is still legally allowed to record the songs, without releasing them. He also can perform them live if the venue he's performing in has paid its annual blanket fee to the licensing and rights organizations like ASCAP, BMI and SESAC.

As long as it isn't Pat Boone, I can probably live with it.

Who??

Don't buy it. Pretty easy solution to the problem.
Attempting to stop someone from making a living just because you don't like him is pure bullshit.

I stopped listening to Bowie about the time of the Geek Machine or whatever.

His absence seems not to have stunted my intellectual growth any.

Why should I listen to someone covering music I dismiss?
