KANYE CONFIRMS: DONDA DROPS FRIDAY

Kanye West has announced that his 10th studio album, DONDA, will arrive Friday, 7/23, via G.O.O.D./Def Jam. A Beats Buds/Apple spot during Game 6 of the NBA Finals confirmed Ye's album-release plans. The set is named for his late mother.

The DONDA Listening Event being held at Mercedes Benz Stadium on Thursday evening will be livestreamed globally by Apple Music.

West scored and edited the commercial, which features U.S. track star Sha'Carri Richardson and a snippet of an album track, "No Child Left Behind." Watch it below.

Ye also posted on social media for the first time in 2021. View the series of photos below.
