Kanye West's Yeezy Season 3 fashion show / listening party is starting to wrap up over at Madison Square Garden, and the early viewership numbers are insane. According to a Tidal press release, over 20 million people attempted to watch the stream at its peak. It's unclear how viewership held up throughout the broadcast, which stretched out over almost two hours. We'll include that information once it's available.
Representatives for the service also chalked up some early technical issues — people had trouble watching the stream at high bitrates — to AMV and Akamai, the companies responsible for the stream's technical aspects. (AMV is a digital media company, and Akamai is a "content delivery network.") So Dame Grease decided to make use of the buffer going on this afternoon during the Live Stream dropped The Life of El Grease. The EP features five hits featuring Bigga Threat, David Bowie, 808 Blake & Johnny J. Listen, Like, Download and Share.
