Apple's worldwide developers conference is happening next week, and the rumor mill is going into overdrive. It's expected that the brand will be launching their highly anticipated streaming services, which has been anticipated since the failed Beats Music service was acquired last year.
We've heard that Drake and Pharrell will be involved in some way or another (likely as iTunes Radio DJs), but new reports are claiming that Kanye West will also play a role, and its possible his new album, SWISH, could be unveiled through the platform. As we saw with the botched U2 premiere last year, this wouldn't be the first time Apple partnered with an artist in this way.
We know that Yeezy has always held Apple in high regard, so it wouldn't be a surprise that he'd jump at the opportunity to work with them, but his ties to Tidal do present a conflict of interest.
Tune in June 8th to see just what the company has in store for us.
