Kanye West just revealed the reason Blue Ivy and North West don’t hang out
In an illuminating conversation with the crowd (yes, the crowd) at a Seattle concert this week, Kanye West let slip the fact he and Jay Z are on awkward terms – revealing everything from why their kids don’t play together to what Jay Z did following Kim’s attack in Paris.
West points the finger at the “streaming wars” between Tidal and Apple Music as the source of many of the problems for the pair – who are both arguably at the top of their field.
“Y’all ain’t get what y’all was suppose to get with me and Drake because of some Tidal/Apple [Music] bullshit,” West said from his floating stage.
“This shit got me tight, yo! Every time I perform [‘N—– in Paris’], I think about this shit. I think about the politics and the bullshit. I think about how hard I go for music, for art, for y’all, the fans. How hard we go.”

In 2015, the performance of “Un Bel di Vedremo” from Giacomo Puccini’s M. Butterfly, performed by Carmen Monarcha and André Rieu, delivered an emotional performance with melodies imbued with pain and hope that moved many to tears, unable to take their eyes off the stage. Uncategorized khanh linhlt · 07/11/2024 · 0 Comment Here is an article about Carmen Monarcha and André Rieu’s performance of “Un Bel di Vedremo” from Puccini’s M. Butterfly in 2015: Carmen Monarcha and André Rieu’s performance of “Un Bel di Vedremo” from Giacomo Puccini’s M. Butterfly is an emotional and captivating musical moment. The work, composed by Puccini, is characterized by dramatic melodies and a strong emotional struggle between the two main characters. In the 2015 performance, Carmen Monarcha, with her captivating soprano voice, performed this famous aria beautifully, keeping the audience glued to the stage. “Un Bel di Vedremo” is one of the most touching arias in M. Butterfly, where the character Cio-Cio-San (Madame Butterfly) expresses her hope for the return of her lover after a long separation. The song contains pain and undying faith in love, with a melody that is both elegant and full of longing. Carmen Monarcha, with her powerful and delicate voice, perfectly conveyed the character’s emotions. She not only sang but also lived each word, making the listener feel the torment, hope and disappointment of Cio-Cio-San. Meanwhile, André Rieu, with his violin and talented conducting, created a wonderful harmony with Monarcha’s voice. Rieu’s orchestra not only highlighted Puccini’s melody but also enhanced the emotional power of the performance, making the space seem to be filled with the character’s feelings and longing. The audience’s reaction to this performance was extremely enthusiastic. Many said they were drawn into the emotional musical space created by Carmen Monarcha and André Rieu. The melodies imbued with pain and hope moved many people to tears. Rieu’s combination of opera and symphonic music, along with the subtlety with which Monarcha conveyed emotion, made this performance one of the memorable moments in both artists’ careers.
But it doesn’t stop there. West let it slip the whole Apple Music/Tidal situation has infected more than just his and Jay Z’s relationship, even going as far to discuss Drake’s involvement in the whole saga – which, as it turns out, has been damaged after Jay Z said he didn’t want his part included on Drake’s song ‘Pop Style’ because it would be streamed on Apple Music and he didn’t want to upset anyone.
Keeping up?
But it wasn’t all streaming services and musical chairs: West continued to reveal more about his relationship with Jay Z (and in turn, Beyoncé), by saying the friendship is so damaged and their kids don’t play together because of it.
But wait, there’s more!
West also said he felt hurt because Jay Z only called him on the phone following Kim Kardashian’s Paris robbery, and didn’t visit him in person “like brothers”, giving the impression that West does actually want to be friends with Jay?
