Updated | By Poelano Malema
The music guru took drastic steps to let Universal Music know what he thinks about his contract.
Kanye West is not a happy man.
He has been ranting on Twitter about the injustice suffered by musicians that are tied to contracts by record labels.
The 'Wash Us In The Blood' hitmaker said he is tied up in ten contracts with Universal Music.
“OK GUYS CHECK THIS OUT ... I DONT HAVE A CONTRACT WITH UNIVERSAL ... I HAVE TEN Rolling on the floor laughing THEY TRY TO BURRY US ALIVE,” he tweeted.
He said being signed to a record label is like slavery.
“I forgive everyone from the music industry that is involved with modern day slavery. Vengeance is only the lords,” he tweeted.
"Who made up the term major label in the first place???" he asked.

90% of the record contracts on the planet are still on a royalty A standard record deal is a trap to NEVER have you recoup, and there’s all these hidden costs like the “distribution fees” many labels put in their contracts to make even more money off our work without even trying.
