Kanye West’s Long-Awaited New Album, Jesus Is King, Is Finally Here
Kanye West has been promising the release of a new album for a while now, but it seems the blessed day has finally come.
West’s ninth studio album Jesus Is King officially dropped on Friday at noon ET, after unspecified delays slowed down the album’s release in September. West’s wife, Kim Kardashian, celebrated the album’s release via Twitter:
Jesus Is King is now streamable on Spotify, and, true to Kanye’s word, it appears to include no secular music. Tracks from the bright-blue album include contributors from Ty Dolla $ign and Kenny G to Federico Vindver and Angel Lopez. See the full track list below:
