Kanye West dropped the Life of Pablo over the weekend.

After months of anticipation, Kanye West finally dropped his latest album — “The Life of Pablo” — following a performance on Saturday Night Live.

West announced the album is not available anywhere except Tidal for the next week, which sent his fans clamoring to listen to it over the music streaming service.

West originally had the album available for sale as a download, via Tidal, as well as for streaming. But he quickly changed his mind, removing the ability for users to download it — but not before some had paid cash for a download of “The Life of Pablo” that never materialized.

Furious customers took to Twitter to voice their frustration with Tidal.

 

NO. Eff tidal. Botched the hell out of this release. Paid for the album 12 hours ago, still don’t have it. https://t.co/dpLNZ25VN8

Stupid @TIDALHiFi won’t allow me to listen to TLOP. Frustrated is an understatement!
