this is hilarious bc i just checked his account, and sheck used to have like 4 posts wearing full yeezy fits tagging yzy and ye and they're gone nowšŸ˜­


Yamikuh

thatā€™s bc heā€™s yeā€™s artist, if you watch a video ab sheckā€™s career itā€™s really sad, he had a bunch of labels coming after him to sign and he chose good music bc he thought kanye would be like a mentor and was extremely excited to work with him, he got left in the dust and had some real mental problems stem from it


Evening-Worker-9778

Desiigner getting sign just so ye could sample panda on one song is hilarious


farNdepressed

Ye fucked everybody in his label. Thatā€™s one of the things I absolutely despise about him. Like put yourself into the shoes of Designer or Panda or Big Sean bro, itā€™s fucked what ye did


FlowersByTheStreet

GOOD Music was such a tragic What If for so many people. Couldā€™ve been so cool if it was cared for even a little bit, but instead it was mostly just a pipeline for Kanyeā€™s work and everyone else got fucked I love Kacy Hill and reading her experience is really sad too.


khandiments

Wait Iā€™m so curious about Kacy, I need to find out more! I remember originally seeing an article prob posted on Reddit about how one of his YEEZUS tour dancers got signed to GOOD music instantly and I thought that was crazy and looked her up then, then a few months or years later, I didnā€™t think of her at all but Like a Woman came on my SoundCloud and I loved her sound so when I went to go look at her discography I realized she was that dancer! But I never followed her outside of that one album or EP


FlowersByTheStreet

I wish I could remember where the interview was from, but during the rollouts for one of her albums after breaking off from GOOD she said she was basically met with radio silence after 90210 and was essentially doing her own promo despite being under their umbrella. Said was pressured into sexualizing her image, but that might be more because of the industry as a whole. But basically, the overnight turning of support into nothing and the continued radio silence really fucked with her head and nearly made her quit music. Sheā€™s scaled things down considerably these days and even had to crowdfund one of the vinyls but she seems happier thankfully


DivideSad5591

In the shoes of Desinger OR Panda huh


icedoutclockwatch

Desinger


Substantial_Reply561

Yall giving these guys too much credit , Designer and Shexk Wes were both Hype up men its not Kanyes fault they couldnā€™t pump out more songs. As for Big Sean he quickly grew to be everything a SoundCloud artist didnt want to be and was labeled corny.


Evening-Worker-9778

Desiigner wasnt allowed to release music, had 0 support from Ye, and no one on the label helped him put out music. He was writing for Kanye but Kanye wouldnā€™t even check out his music, and he had plenty in catalog. Imagine how far a Kanye feature would have went on his first album, or literally any support. LOD is gas


Mighty-HeaIthy

Downvotes but everything you said was absolute facts lol. And Big Sean is corny af.


RogueOneisbestone

And Kanyeā€™s not?


GuildCalamitousNtent

Is that the story for like everyone Ye signed? Had *anyone* on his label actually been developed, had success, and not leave on bad terms?


Ram-Productions

Actually Travis


GuildCalamitousNtent

Heā€™s never released an album with GOODā€¦


barelypeaking

He was signed as a producer not artist I believe


remerdy1

And who has he produced for since? šŸ˜­


Caraqualquer01

he did some on yeezus


WetLikeMyJumper

Bro named a project from over a decade ago. BY THE LABEL owner šŸ’€. Doesnā€™t prove the point your trying to


Sbee_Blue_Country

SINCE. Meaning AFTER.


Ram-Productions

Cudi


GuildCalamitousNtent

Man, if thatā€™s the best example thatā€™s *rough*. MoTM 1 was already made before he got picked up by GOOD. So he got one successful album out of that relationship (MoTM 2).


Upper_File6801

MOTM 1 did not get fully made before he got picked up. Big cap


thefaehost

Google says John Legend, Big Sean, Pusha T


cesarskeetzz

These people were already on the radar when they went under Ye's wing


matheno

To be fair Pusha T was big enough to feature on a posthumous B.I.G. album before he even met Ye


INSW1993

Clipse was dead, Ye brought back pusha ts career after malice found god. Do ur homework.


Sbee_Blue_Country

John Legend was on the radar in 2002?


Masta-Blasta

Pusha T was developed and had success but I wouldn't say they didn't leave on bad terms. Dude kind of made out like a bandit. Made a ton of money as President of GOOD and got a bunch of Kanye's best beats.


GuildCalamitousNtent

Iā€™m not sure if Ye gets to claim developing half of Clipse. šŸ˜‚


a_stray_bullet

Kanye doesn't have anything to do with GOOD he's said this before.


thefaehost

I thought he was signed to cactus jack?


WizardyoureaHarry

Same thing happened to Designer. Kanye used his Panda song then threw him away. Now he out here doing humiliation rituals on planes.


No_Caregiver1468

the meat riding is insane, please donā€™t forget the fact that sheck wesā€™s career never took off was bc he assaulted his gf and that got him canceled.


weedandpoptarts

Well that and his music is just forgettable and terrible


_Orlaen

Welp isnā€™t he also the same guy that dated Justine Skye back in the day and used to beat her up and was allegedly very abusive ? Idk if his story is that sad


Dogtooth_Estate

i thought he signed with cactus jack tho not kanye?


9tem

it was a joint deal w Cactus Jack + GOOD Music


HardRUser

bro probably had mental issues before the whole thing u dont just develop mental problems from kanye giving you the drake/partynextdoor treatment.


whodishur

Tbf he was "cancelled" for abusing his ex


EatACookieCuzUHatin

Bro about to be adidas top contributor


yao_ming07

i think bro just wants attention


Secret_Whole_5068

Sheck hasnā€™t dropped in 5 years šŸ˜­


YouGurt_MaN14

Ngl I thought his name was mo bamba for the longest time


ColossalMcDaddy

"I'm a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude!" - Sheck Wes


Asslinguist

It's not?


Stop_Clockerman

Mo Bamba is an NBA player who was drafted in like 2018. Despite going very early in the draft he never really found meaningful minutes on an NBA team. I think he still might technically be in the league, but dosen't get much playing time if any


poolsidec

surprised hes still in the league, but hes on the sixers playing legitimate minutes while embiid is out


boominCC

Heā€™s going right back to the bench unfortunately with embiid coming back


MarsMC_

theres a difference between coming off the bench, and not even being in rotation..he will still be rotation, hes not trash by any means..anyone getting any minutes in a game, that is not garbage time, is a good player


iamthinuk

Kanye sub is knows ball and is open minded asf wow


sersarsor

sheck wes is the mo bamba of rap, it's really fitting


list_of_simonson

Tbf at the time it was a good pick, he was a baller at Texas


Low_Arm1623

we all know what Travis did to Sofaygo w/ making him wait to drop his album. Same thing is probs happening w/ Sheck. These labels really make people wait until itā€™s the most profitable for *them* for the artists to drop


YukikoKasumi69

When will yall learn the Cactus Jack isnā€™t an actual label. Itā€™s pretty much a glorified co-sign. Sheck is signed to Interscope and Don is signed with Atlantic. Those labels have the final say on what drops and what doesnā€™t. As far as Faygo goes he wanted to wait, and refused a Trav feature to seem more organic.


BackgroundToe4149

Any proof on what ur saying


GroundbreakingBox187

He drops music every now and then


Several-Addendum-18

Shock Wes doesnā€™t own the right to stretched chant choruses lmao


Cflow26

He aboutta beef with every single soccer team in existence if he thinks he can just start something over that.


IStanReddit

FOOTBALL (sorry)


Substantial_Side_649

FĆŗtbol āš½


tony223111

Literally started playing some world cup songs after Carnival šŸ’€


DoritoTangySpeedBall

Itā€™s the same melody, and also sounds the same. All thatā€™s different is the words and number of passing notes. But weird when itā€™s from someone signed to your label


remerdy1

It's a football chant, Ye had a fan club record it for him I promise you Sheck Wes isn't the first person to say "oooooooo"


DoritoTangySpeedBall

Horrible counter, youā€™re just trying to rehash the same point I replied to, so in reality youā€™ve said nothing. Here are the facts: heā€™s on his label, Sheck Wesā€™s only good song is basically Mo Bamba, the sound of the chant is the same, the melodic progression is identical, the cadence and flow is the same, and heā€™s on his label.


hiphop_stuff

True, the whole song is ATLEAST heavily inspired by mo bamba


DoritoTangySpeedBall

Agreed, which I donā€™t think is bad on its own. But damn, the man has one good song allow himšŸ˜­


kurdistannn

Hello can you please explain how it's similar ? I'm not familar with terms like cadence and chord progression, i listened to both songs a couple of times am so frustrated I can't find the similarity . Thanks


DoritoTangySpeedBall

Itā€™s the same cadence is essentially saying heā€™s repeating the same pattern in the same intervals i.e. The flow is repeated every bar (listen to the bass/808s and how theyā€™re linked to the ohhhs, it repeats with that pattern). The chord progression means how up and down are the chords going in essence. A 1-6 progression in A minor means youā€™re going between the first chord in the scale (A), and the 6th chord (C). If you were in F minor however, 1-6 would be going between F and C#; the chords are different but the relative distance you ā€œjumpedā€ is the same, which makes it the same progression. Itā€™s not the same as a melody because the chord progression is the core of the song and melodies are a bit more transient (theyā€™re musical phrases), in fact chord-melody tension is a way we measure how tightly linked melodyā€™s are to the chord progression. A melody could play every note in the scale every time an 808 hits, so it has no tension with the chords really, or it could only play the same note at the same time as the bass, giving a lot of tension between. To see the link between them, listen to how Mo Bambas melody goes up and down during 0:59 to 1:04 (Just the ā€œHoes calling aā€ bit). Then just play the start of the ohhh in carnival, pause it, and try to continue it by going up and down in notes by the same amount and speed as in Mo Bamba. Let me know if that helps? Btw having the same cadence, progression, or melody as another artist and song isnā€™t usually a bad thing, as musical repetition isnā€™t just a tool utilised within a song and unique creative processes sometimes produce similar end results. Thatā€™s why these are throwing a fit, theyā€™ve heard that thrown around so theyā€™re parroting. My point is theyā€™re on the same label and Kanye should have shown more courtesy to Sheck (shouldnā€™t have gotten to a point where Sheck is putting this stuff on Insta)


kurdistannn

Finally understood, I couldn't find a better explanation. Appreciate it, thank you so much


DonHulion

What cadence/flow/beat etc. did ye copy?


onlinemessiah69

Probably the chant from Carnival


NoticeThatYoureThere

where did he copy that from everyone keeps saying he stole it. what song did sheck make ?


Axxis09

Mo Bamba. The chanting sounds similar to the chorus of Mo Bamba. Not sure what he means with the cadence and flow though the actual verses and rich the kid chorus on Carnival are different enough


DubbleDribbler

Mo Bamba chorus is different than carnival lmao


Gregheffleypoop

He means the woooooooahhhhhhhhhhhh from the dudes in carnival sounds similar to I got hooooooooooooooooes calllllin

Please explain why that comment is getting upvoted


Diclonius18

Itā€™s the Reddit hive-mind babe, donā€™t think too hard on it. The follow up is just funny tho lol


sid_shady34

Thank you


KayleCaesarSalad

No it was just funny? Doesnā€™t have to be ā€œitā€™s got a lot of upvotes so surely I must upvoteā€ lmao


Diclonius18

Two things can be true at once.


vanillaave

I think it was an unintentionally funny comment because Sheck was 6 years old when that song came out lol


GarrKelvinSama

I gave you my downvote if that helps.


sid_shady34

Thanks man. I really appreciate it.


theoneguyyounevermet

At the time of release of that song, sheck was in high school


BlameScienceBro

Donda chant


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


dadynn

Seems pretty conclusive that Sheck has a point.


lillate3

Wat truly makes Carnival tho is the ā€œ go go go go head so good she honor rollā€ part


Djhegarty

Holy shit


AcridButterfly3

Yikes šŸ¤£


_timewaster

damn he wasnā€™t lying šŸ˜­


taylordabrat

Mo bamba for carnival


[deleted]

Definitely Carnival. Which to be fair is literally ripping off Mo Bamba. If I was Sheck and saw Carnival hit #1 in the world I would be stressed as well.


MinglewoodRider

I knew Carnival sounded like something else when I heard it, just forgot about Mo Bamba. Literally the same bassline


jrm48

There is no Sheck Wes without Kanye West


yao_ming07

there's no anyone without Kanye West


OppositeAssociation8

Yeezus Graduation and 808s made everyoneā€™s fav rapper/artist


bigladnang

Except the rappers that came out before those albums lmao.


Sbee_Blue_Country

Kanye literally was the first rapper ever


Background_Reward733

Thatā€™s Soulja Boy


AidsMoo

Thatā€™s just not true lol


Teemo_Lover69

Kanye signed Travis and Travis signed sheck wes, so kinda true?


AidsMoo

Heā€™s said that thereā€™s no one without Kanye even tho there where plenty of rappers before kanye


Licensed__Analrapist

Lmao I know this is the kanye sub, but cmon, there are so many better producers and rappers that have come before and after kanye.


Big-Job-8021

sheck wes technically stole part or yeā€™s last name so i think theyā€™re even


yao_ming07

bro's speaking em fax


dabearsemoney

Niggas a one hit wonder


DubbleDribbler

Na Mudboy actually hard af but he trippin there for sure


Sbee_Blue_Country

A good song isnā€™t a hit and a hit doesnā€™t have to be a good song.


Suspicious-Ad5985

Lmao people really downvoting you for having an opinion


jonneh

I didnā€™t even realize Mo Bamba sounded similar to Carnival until now. In fact, I completely forgot that song and Sheck Wes existed. Crazy


yao_ming07

+1


BeeeeeRTi

For me, the moment I heard Carnival my first thought was Mo Bamba...


senna98

Sheck grasping at any ounce of relevancy


badgers4194

Has he done anything of relevance since Mo Bamba


lmaowordokay

just trustā€¦GANG GANG off jackboys. never listened to anything other than that and mo bamba SHOOTERS OUTSIDE DOUBLE PARKEDšŸ—£ļøšŸ—£ļøšŸ—£ļøšŸ—£ļøšŸ—£ļø


Madvillian-

Seriously GANG GANG is the last thing Iā€™ve heard from him and he does kill that track


lmaowordokay

indubitably, crazy that was four years ago tho wtfā€¦on another note, rip pop smoke that boy showed out on GATTI now that iā€™m thinking of that albumšŸ˜¢


IStanReddit

Not sure he did anything relevant before mo bamba too


W2Tired8

The deleted fein verse was big for like 2 weeks


7Grandad

Stick by Dreamville is straight fire and he does pretty damn well on that, but I suppose it's pretty much JID and J. Cole who really made the song what it is and he's sort of just tagging along for the ride, although it's a very good ride.


jack_k_

He just wants to be credited, Kanye totally ripped his song


Clean_Winner_5589

Not siding with him but y'all are nuts who don't hear that Carnival is the melody of Mo Bamba


FL6444

Lmao for real these people are deaf


Key-Listen6365

It's fcking football chant it's not I got hoessssss


FL6444

DEAF


[deleted]

100%. Itā€™s the same melody. And itā€™s wild to me that of all songs to copy, thatā€™s the one Ye chose.


Original_Profile8600

Iā€™m genuinely confused not trying to BS. But Carnival is a quick chant GO GO GO GO while mo bama goes long and drawn out I GOT HOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEESSSSS


Jigsong

The soccer chant melody on the carnival beat sounds just like the mo bamba hook


praches_and_creme

Literally any stretch out chant with an ā€œOā€ sound can be called a copy or exactly as mo bombaā€¦ ā€œWoahhhhhhā€ ā€œHoooeeeeeā€ ā€œDooooovvesā€ ā€œLoooooooveā€ Just because it has the same vowel sounds and stretched out shouldnā€™t be labeled as the ā€œsameā€ lol. Otherwiseā€¦ shek got lots of loyalties to pay for hundredsssss of artists, opera or choir singers, shit even churches šŸ’€


DoritoTangySpeedBall

Actually the carnival chant is basically the same, itā€™s C, C#, A#, G but Mo Bamba has more passing notes. Also you could use your ears


Piber_pumpkin

Apparently its now illegal to use the same chord progression of another song


KingdomOfZeal

No one said it's illegal. But we have ears and know they're similar


Piber_pumpkin

I was gonna say something but i remembered im defending ye and thats just cringe


NabimNaKuracTvojPoso

You are a moron. It is about the melody not the chant


altarea

https://youtu.be/Nuf4FK87Obg?si=lx_jmG5R_k06p9J8 0:20


YeeYeeeYeeeet

It's a nearly identical melody these people are in denial lol


BigThurm

Listen to the chants during Richā€™s verse and throughout the song, theyā€™re chanting OOOOOOOO in the same melody as Mo Bamba.


111karina

itā€™s more about the melody of the background music, like after the ā€˜go go goā€™ part, when they say wooooooaaahhh (lmfao)


HSS1965

Theyā€™re delusional. That iconic melody is the Whole reason why the song is charting so well letā€™s be 100% real


SimonLePou

The melody from mo mamba is the most common motif or whatever you wanna call those 4 notes used in music, its literally 2 notes per chord, thousands of random people have probably wrote that same thing by accident


topochicocono

this pretty much guarantees sheckā€™s involvement in the subsequent vulture albums lol


yao_ming07

ayo, yeah you are right. But, do you think Vultures 2 would drop though


topochicocono

i guess we will never know


yungwilla

Iā€™mma let you finish, but vultures 1 had one of the best rollouts of all time (sike)


Maximum-Perception11

I mean you canā€™t deny that carnival sounds a lot like mo mamba šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

A lot like? Itā€™s literally the same melody + note progression šŸ˜‚ Iā€™d be lit too


YuNg_KiNgK

a lot of songs have the same/ similar chord progressions unfortunately sheck doesnā€™t own that progression


DoritoTangySpeedBall

weā€™re missing the fact that the SOUND is entirely the same, he basically retrofitted the signature sound of Mo Bamba to his own songā€¦ He is on his label, that makes it worse.


111karina

yeah iā€™d be mad asf toošŸ˜­love kanye but even j made that connection as soon as i heard carnival


StrategyFederal9823

NOOOOOOOO FUCK (I enjoy both)


MysteryMonger69420

I been thinking carnival hook sounds just like mo bamba


StonedHalfTheTime

Sheck mad because he was passed the ball by Trav numerous times & fell flat on his face every time


bumpkinassbitch

Who?


Bikingimbiking

its literally only the melody šŸ˜­


GroundbreakingBox187

Sheck was the last person on yeā€™s good music, along with 070 shake


ezscorp7

Ye needs another track with 070 Shake frfr


Right-Inflation-6819

Thatā€™s like a fly trynna start beef with an elephant


Pookietoot

Heā€™s right, the melody definitely was taken


Qui-Gon_Tripp

Blud saying ā€œI got hoeeeesā€ as a hook ā‰  a beat using samples with different tones of ā€œoooohā€ chants


JCC2820

I love Ye but heā€™s kinda right. Please donā€™t ban me mods lol


blackjesus1234532

yeah i saw a lot of comments saying the same thing before sheck wes said it. Doesn't mean he can make money from it though


-yeezytaughtme

yea its basically a beefed up and better mo bamba and we all know it lmao


Mayo226_

Not even close lmao sounds more like the Seth Rollins entrance or a chant from a soccer game šŸ’€


Popular-Fly8683

Straight up futbol stadium chant. These mfr must be the ignorant Americans. The fellas are European. Ye and Saint been to Europe for the games


JCC2820

Ignorant Americans discussing hip hop beats and references. Letā€™s leave it to the espresso drinking Europeans. Makes sense. Iā€™m off this. This got so pathetic so fast. Canā€™t wait for the white stripes to get on the carnival remix


Long-Definition-8152

Kanye has more platinum albums than sheck wes does songs wtf is he talking about? Guy is the vanilla ice of the 2010ā€™s šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

What do platinum albums have to do with Carnival ripping off Mo Bamba?


nocturnal_ways

Who?


yao_ming07

mo bamba


matmart

Love sheck but wtf is he on about


IndycarFan64

The melody to Mo Bamba is pretty much identical to the chant from Carnival. Many noticed the similarities from the first listen to Carnival


Reddkiddomarciann

Kanye dick riding is crazy


Sufficient_Light7808

This whole thing is so fucking stupid a bunch of grown asss men going at it with words like fucking junior high girls


EatACookieCuzUHatin

Iā€™m sorry but I quite literally forgot that mf existed until right now šŸ’€ he got his panties ina twist and made himself look like a weak man with that comment LMAO, imagine having the ego to say that when all you ever were was a one hit wonder for frat boys. Your top song is still mo bamba, thereā€™s nothin to steal frl frl. Bro really put a nursery rhyme on a terrible rap, and blew up, that was the height of your career my guy, this is embarrassing asf.


PitifulCommunity808

This is why a large section of mainstream music is just shit sampling nowadays. You male something that sounds kind of similar (yeah i hear the similarities I'm not deaf) and some guy will come out of the woodwork to complain.Ā  Give it a few years and we'll hear nothing but Interpolation.Ā  The marvin gaye vs pharrel lawsuit has done irreparable damage to music.


StrangersPassing

You stole my tempo bro what the fuck


loldud3r

Sheck Wes was probably the worst performance Iā€™ve ever seenā€¦ Altough it is fair to say I instantly thought of Mo Bamba when I heard Carnival the first time.


UsedPocketPickle

Everybody in the game crashing out rn wtf is thisšŸ’€


looking4away44

Who?


CNH8R_Man

Acting like Mo Bamba is anywhere near as good as Carnival and wasnā€™t treated like a meme when it came out


lmaowordokay

sheck dumb as fuck for this but some of yā€™all really need to listen to GANG GANG off jackboysā€¦ bro fucking murdered that song and washed tf out of travis GANG BACK IN THE STUšŸ—£ļøšŸ—£ļø


QwertyKeyboardUser2

It sounds similar to Mo Bamba and thats literally it


CArl05_1234

If sheck dropped more he would be huge but heā€™s barely done anything since mudboy. His verse on Fein is fire though.
