Kanye West Drops New Album, Shocks No One With Title
Kanye West New Album
Ever the humble artist, Kanye West has outdone himself with his new album: the appropriately hubristic titled Yeezus (a mashup of Kanye’s nickname, Yeezy, and the name of his homeboy, Jesus). This latest from the controversial father-to-be will mark West’s followup to 2010’s fantastic My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, his last solo record, and Watch The Throne, the 2011 collaborative album he produced with Jay-Z. With less than a month to go, the countdown to the coming of Yeezus has already begun – the record is set to drop June 18.

Although no official tracklist has been released/leaked yet, those song titles that we do know of sound perfectly in-keeping with Kanye’s characteristic blend of egomania and religiosity: “Awesome” and “I Am God.” Frank Ocean makes a cameo on “New Slaves,” while Skrillex, Chief Keef, Daft Punk, TNGHT, Odd Future, and Young Chop are among the album’s other rumored guest stars. Whether or not any of these collaborators will appear on Kanye West’s upcoming (inevitable) promotional tour remains to be seen, but we’ll keep you updated as the rapper releases more details – including tour dates and ticket information!
