Patience is a virtue all true fans of Kanye West must possess. The recently single dad and former US presidential candidate announced his new album, Donda, named after his late mother, who passed away in 2007 at the age of 58, after complications during plastic surgery.
The rapper held a listening event for the new album at the 70 000seater Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, his home state – and it was sold out.
Here’s what we know about Yeezy’s latest offering.
SURPRISE! Kanye’s 10th studio album was first announced for release in July 2020 .
His previous release, the 2019 gospel-themed album Jesus is King, won a Grammy for best contemporary Christian album.
