Kanye West debuts new album 'YE' at Wyoming ranch listening party
Kanye West debuted his highly anticipated eighth studio album, YE, at a star-studded listening party Thursday night at Wyoming ranch. On Thursday, West flew out hundreds of journalists, celebrities and music industry vets to Jackson Hole, Wyoming's Diamond Cross Ranch for a massive listening party that included Chris Rock, Nas, Kid Cudi, Jonah Hill, Lil Yachty and 2 Chainz among many others.
At seven tracks long, the album is Kanye’s first full-length release since 2016’s 'The Life of Pablo'. 'YE' features Ty Dolla $ign, Kid Cudi, Jeremih, Young Thug and Charlie Wilson and, according to Def Jam, was produced entirely by West. While the album has yet to hit any streaming services, attendees and viewers of West's livestream heard references to Stormy Daniels, West's controversial comments about slavery being a choice (“They said build your own, I said, ‘How, Sway?’”/I said slavery’s a choice, they said, ‘How, Ye?'”) and Russell Simmons' rape allegations ("Russell Simmons want to pray for me, too," West rhymes. "Ima pray for him 'cause he got Me Too'd."). Billboard
