Martin Shkreli Wants to Buy Kanye West's 'The Life of Pablo' for $10 Million
“Kanye and his label are legally required to take my offer letter to their Board of Directors. This should delay the album by a few days.” – Martin Shkreli
Pharmaceutical CEO Martin Shkreli may be in the midst of a bit of legal trouble right now but he’s far from being done with his goals. He infamously purchased Wu-Tang Clan’s one-of-a-kind album Once Upon a Time in Shaolin for $2 million USD, and he’s now set his sights on Kanye West’s new album The Life of Pablo. Shkreli is offering the rapper $10 million USD if he could purchase the album and keep it from being released to the public. Check out his tweets below, as well as a legal letter that’s supposed to be presented by Kanye to his label’s Board of Directors.
