Kanye West’s new album The Life of Pablo – which isn’t supposed to be available anywhere else except on Jay Z’s streaming site Tidal – has apparently been streaming on PornHub for the past few days.
While the stream has been taken down at the request of Kanye, The Verge reports it had been up and running for five days prior, and was first noticed by Reddit.
We’ve contacted PornHub to confirm, but had not heard back at the time of publication. The Twitter account did tweet this though.
Don’t worry @kanyewest, TLOP was removed from Pornhub. Everyone make sure to head back to TIDAL to listen to it. pic.twitter.com/DldXpZ9j7I

And while we did click onto PornHub to check (obviously it’s not the best webpage to have open at work), the update showed Kanye’s request for it to be taken down.
The album is supposed to be exclusive to users of Tidal.
On a side note, Tidal itself appears to be having a tough time of late with its chief financial officer Chris Hart and COO Nils Juell being fired.
A statement via email from Tidal said: “TIDAL has terminated CFO Chris Hart and COO Nils Juell.
“As TIDAL has grown into a global operation serving 46 countries we have moved our accounting and operations team to New York while our technology team and key support staff remain in Oslo.”
