Why did Kanye change “Theraflu” name to “Way Too Cold”?
Kanye West changed the name to (and the artwork for) his new single “Theraflu” to “Way Too Cold.” It was originally thought that he did this because Theraflu’s legal team strong-armed him, but Theraflu is speaking out saying it wasn’t them!
They told TMZ: “Novartis Consumer Health did not ask that the name be changed. That request would be way too cold.” Oh you, Novartis!
Theraflu was actually getting A LOT of free advertising through the song, so they probably loved it. Maybe Kanye was the one who was pissed about the free publicity!
“Theraflu” or “Way Too Cold” is the song where Kanye professed his love for Kim Kardashian. It’s probably true on his part, Kanye’s notorious for putting his real life into his lyrics (like when he rapped on the douchebag anthem “Runaway” about sending pictures of his penis to girls’ phones.)
