KANYE AND SCOOTER GO WIDE WITH PABLO (UPDATE)

Kanye West has released an updated version of his The Life of Pablo album to all streaming services, with downloads offered via his website. Meanwhile, sources in his camp confirm he has pacted with Scooter Braun to co-manage with longtime rep Izzy Zivkovic.

The release, which has been revised multiple times by West, is being referred to as a "living" album by its creator and team. You can check out the current iteration here.

Downloads are available at KanyeWest.com.

West and Team Def Jam went to radio with single "Famous" this week, scoring #1 Most Added honors at Rhythm and Urban.

Label sources note that the positive influence of Braun, who recently spearheaded the triumphant turnaround of Justin Bieber's career—the Biebs is now bigger than ever—is evident in this latest move to take Pablo wide.

You'll recall that the album was momentarily for sale as a download on Tidal as well; those who purchased the set during that brief window will, according to reports, be sent an updated version.
