Kanye West renames 'SWISH' to 'WAVES'
A little update on the album name that will always remain capitalised, 'SWISH'.
Only it's not called 'SWISH' anymore, after Kanye decided to rename it 'WAVES' overnight, along with an updated tracklist (signed and sealed by Kim).

There's not much room to argue with a rap game titan like Kanye, but it did leave Wiz Khalifa with a bitter taste in his mouth, seeing it as 'Ye trying to take 'the wave' from the OG Wavie Crockett, Max B.
Currently incarcerated on conspiracy charges to armed robbery, kidnapping, aggravated assault and felony murder – there's probably not much Max can do, but as you can see below, Wiz ain't happy.
Please don't take the wave.

Max B is the wavy one. He created the wave. There is no wave without him.

He's the reason I sing on all my songs. That's the wave. If theres nothing wit that sound ITS NOT WAVY.

Kanye responded with a bow of respect to Max B, but there's every chance it might get medium rare out here.
All respect to Andre Harrel and Max B #Waves
