Ye & Ty Dolla $ign’s ‘Vultures 2’ Receives Its Third Release Date
Written by djfrosty on July 31, 2024
There appears to be some clarity regarding the much-delayed Vultures 2 project from Ye (formerly Kanye West) and Ty Dolla $ign. West’s YZY website provided an updated message explaining on Wednesday (July 31) that all orders have been fulfilled and shipped out, and V2 is set to arrive on Friday (Aug. 2).
Billboard has reached out to reps for Ty Dolla $ign.

“ALL ORDERS FULFILLED VULTURES 2 COMING AUGUST 2ND,” the website’s homepage reads. Other than that message regarding the project and clothing orders, the white background features only the current date and time.
Fans were sent into a frenzy as word began to spread about the imminent release date. Some on social media were buying the hype, while others said they would believe it when they see, it as Ye has made a habit out of missing targeted release dates.
“Not believing it until the 15th listen,” one fan tweeted, while another echoed the sentiment, saying, “We’ve been through this a million times man.”
One person even updated the meme to add the alternate Vultures cover art to the collection of mythical Ye projects that never found their way to an official release on streaming.
Once upon a time, Vultures 2 was supposed to arrive on March 8 before being pushed to May 3, and then the sequel project became delayed indefinitely.
However, Ty Dolla $ign revealed in his cover story with Billboard in June that V2 was pretty much done, but they were deciding how to properly roll out the album.
“We got all the songs. Basically, it’s just like, ‘How can we get it there? How can we go bigger than the first album?’” he said at the time. “Certain people will probably expect you to just do the same exact sound. But that sound’s already out.”
A pair of Vultures listening experiences are on the calendar for August, with Ye and Ty set to head to South Korea (Aug. 23) and Taiwan (Aug. 25) next month — and fans are hoping new music is coming with them.
Ye and Ty Dolla $ign haven’t made any statements regarding a potential Friday release date for Vultures 2.
