Kanye's New YANDHI Project Looks A Lot Like Yeezus 2
Early Monday morning (September 17),
Kanye West's Twitter held two very puzzling items: the word "YANDHI" (
written on a Post-It note under Adam Driver's name, suggesting the two would pair up for a upcoming
Saturday Night Live episode), and
an image of a naked MiniDisc without any context.
It wasn't unlike once
his 2013 album Yeezus dropped, complete with its artwork of a bare CD with a red sticker on it. Certainly, this caused people to start speculating that
Yeezus 2 was on its way. And then, the specifics came in —
Kanye will indeed perform on SNL on September 29 (with Driver hosting), and that same day, he'll also
launch an assignment called YANDHI.
Kanye has also changed his social media avatars to a white screen, meaning he may would be prepping the starting of a new era. If
YANDHI is indeed a full album, it could be Kanye's third this year, immediately after
Ye, which debuted in June at
Kanye's star-studded Wyoming ranch blowout, and his
Kid Cudi collaboaration,
Kids Visualize Ghosts. Two weeks back, Kanye also dropped the
new song "I Love It" with Lil Pump, complete with a music video
that's already been parodied for its ridiculousness.
Yet the news doesn't stop there! Kanye also took the stage with
Chance the Rapper on Monday night to confirm that yes, they are indeed creating a joint album with each other —
as they've been teasing for weeks now — and it's called
Good Ass Job (a title
Kanye's been teasing for years).
This is a lot to take in, so now's might be a good time to throw on some music (maybe "
Good Ass Intro" or "
Ultralight Beam") and mull it over for a while. And, you know, imagine turning on notifications for Kanye's and Chance's tweets.
