Kanye West’s New Album-Film, ‘Bully,’ Is Loaded With (Possibly Uncleared) Samples and Covers: ‘Close to You,’ ‘Can’t Hurry Love,’ Apparently a Verse From Playboi Carti, More

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Kanye West’s innovative use of samples was one of the hallmarks of his early hits — his slowed-down snippets of songs from Chaka Khan, Ray Charles, Daft Punk and more set a sonic path that countless artists would follow from that point on. But in recent years, as West’s behavior became more unpredictable and often aggressive, so too did his adherence to the legalities of samples, interpolations and straight covers of copyrighted songs and sounds.

’Redux Redux’ Review: A Mother’s Revenge Takes on Different Dimensions in Muscular Multiverse Thriller

Stephen Saito Kevin and Matthew McManus first showed up at SXSW just over a decade ago with their foul-mouthed kid comedy “Funeral Kings”; one of the most charming parts of that fest debut was the fake movie posters for the local video store in the film, dream projects in every sense of the word. Largely uncommented upon, they weren’t sight gags or background filler but likely full-scale features that the brothers were carrying around in their heads.
