Ye – Kanye West – has shared a video of himself working on new music to his Instagram account, which uses a familiar sample.

In a video captioned “PRODUCER MAN”, West can be seen using an Ensoniq ASR-10. As sharp-eared listeners have already picked up, he is seemingly utilising a sample from The Moments’ 1971 track, To You With Love, which was also sampled by J Dilla on Last Donut Of The Night.

West has already released two albums this year – VULTURES 1, released in February, and VULTURES 2, released in August – as part of his work as ¥$ alongside Ty Dolla $ign. A suspected third VULTURES album is supposedly also arriving this year.

West has been the subject of much controversy across recent years, both politically and within the music industry. He has been accused by a number of artists of allegedly using samples from their music without permission. This includes Donna Summer’s estate, Ozzy Osbourne, and producer TSVI.

In other news, a group of storage locker hunters recently uncovered a massive collection of Kanye West gear. The team unboxed the contents of their storage locker purchase in a ‘live’ opening video on TikTok back in August, in which they revealed a flight case labelled with the name “Kanye West” and the word “Grammys”.

Among the find was also some pricey AKG C414 microphones, custom in-ear monitors, an Ensoniq ASR-10 with the name ‘Tarik’ written on it (as per the video above, it seems West has another still in his ownership), and what appeared to be stage costumes from a Hollywood Bowl performance.
