While the new album didn’t come on Friday (as Kanye promised) or on Sunday (as Kim promised), Kanye did rise. He appeared in Detroit on Friday, Chicago on Saturday, and New York City on Sunday for surprise church-style listening sessions. He’s testing our faith—and our patience—but at least the new album isn’t a myth. Here’s everything we know.
When Will the Album Actually Arrive?Only God knows. (Kanye certainly doesn’t.) But we have our money on Tuesday. Let’s just call it spiritual communion or a premonition. But we’ll probably be wrong. It’s Shorter Than the Bible, but Longer than YeThese days, the only thing on Kanye’s website is a that features a notebook with the header Jesus Is King and 12 bullet points below it—what appear to be song titles. Sure, it’s a bit bulkier than the seven track albums Kanye and his G.O.O.D. Music collaborators released in the spring of 2018, but thank God it’s not 25, like virtually every other rap album in the year of our lord 2019.
Each track title is a religious reference of some sort, whether explicit (“Baptized,” “Sweet Jesus”) or more subtle (“Hands On,” “Water”). The Listening Parties Have Resembled Megachurch ServicesTickets to the weekend’s three listening session-concerts were hard to come. Celebrities like Chris Rock and Alexander Wang got invites, and a few lucky fans snagged tickets by being in the right place at the right time.
Phones weren’t allowed at the shows, but, of course, a few people snuck them in. Clips that have circulated on social media have shown something like a megachurch service, with Kanye in the (fashionable) priest role, swaying and leading a gospel choir in song. It’s.GodlyWell, at least in one respect. The new album, which includes verses from masterminds of profanity such as, No Malice, and West himself (“I wanna fuck you hard on the sink / After that, give you somethin' to drink / Step back, can't get spunk on the mink”), as a Jim Gaffigan record. Jesus, There’s a Lot of Jesus!We haven’t heard the album yet, but those who have. West, who has had a rocky past few years, reportedly told one crowd, “This album has been made to be an expression of the gospel and to share the gospel and the truth of what Jesus has done to me.
When I think of the goodness of Jesus and all that he does for me, my soul cries out.” And lyrics apparently include “Your light has healed me” and “I could tell you / He could show you.” West has said he’s done making secular music, but, you know, he’s. Divine Merch at Unholy PricesIt might be hard to take Kanye’s spiritual turn seriously, but perhaps for no reason more so than that he’s simultaneously peddling. The merch is fairly minimal, conceptually, with a design that’s essentially Yeezy-meets–Renaissance art, with a hint of an outsider-art aesthetic. There’s More to ComeSince he's not even released any music yet, maybe future promises are a bit premature.
Kanye West The Life Of Pablo
But Kanye reportedly has two film (IMAX, even!) projects on the way, which may or may not be tangentially connected to the new album. One is a documentary on the housing community of dome-like structures he recently attempted to build in California. The other (out Oct. 25, maybe) is on the Sunday Service performances he conducted this past spring. West has been showing clips from them at this weekend’s shows. But we’ll believe that they’re really on the way when we see them with our own eyes.
