Kanye West’s troubled release of his latest album, “The Life of Pablo,” has already cost the hip-hop star at least $10 million in sales, a review of estimated pirated downloads on Tuesday revealed.

TorrentFreak, which tracks music piracy and file-sharing, reported that West’s album was illegally downloaded more than 500,000 times in the first 24 hours of its Feb. 14 release.

That made it the most ripped-off album by far on The Pirate Bay and other file-sharing sites.

Kanye said just the other day that white folks should not be allowed to write about black folks’ music. Maybe it was taken to hear and no advertising re his album.

BTW, does that also mean that black folks should not appear on TV or radio stations owned by honkies?

It’s all bad rap. Sam Kinison was right.
