During his performance at SXSW's Spotify House, Vince Staples took a moment during his set to criticize the streaming service, The Austin-American Statesmanreports. "Shoutout to Spotify," he said. "Thank you for giving me this check to make up for what you've done to me and all my musical friends." Later, he told the crowd, "listen to your favorite album 1,000, 2,000 times so everybody can get an album sale."

Vince been burning bridges for awhile. I respect him for being real tho.

Vince is one of the best personalities of this new rap shyt.

I just realized that this is the type of shyt that Kanye would do. But if Kanye did it, i'd prolly find a reason to hate.

Self-awareness is a motherfukker.

But Ye would follow it up either apologizing, asking the Spotify CEO for money or in a Spotify commercial.

Unlike Kanye this kid has no pull, no cred, and no fame. He is a wanna be punk who is intent on ruining his career before it starts. If you didnt want it dont accept it. But dont embarrass the people who provided it in the public manner that he did. Thats just not smart. Bad publicity as well closing any possible corporate doors. Chess not checkers. He wants to be crowned but he is not a King in any form.
