Kanye West dropped ‘JESUS IS KING’ 6 years ago today ✝️💿

After dropping ye in 2018, Kanye’s next project was planned to be Yandhi. It was teased with futuristic themes and star-studded features from artists like Nicki Minaj, Ty Dolla $ign, and ###Tentacion. But after a series of leaks, missed release dates, and Kanye’s own religious awakening, he scrapped Yandhi entirely. What began as a sequel to Yeezus evolved into Jesus Is King, a stripped-down gospel album built around faith, redemption, and rebirth.

In early 2019, Kanye formed his Sunday Service Choir, performing gospel versions of his own songs and previewing new songs like “Water.” Most of the album was created at his Wyoming ranch, where he worked with collaborators Clipse, Ty Dolla $ign, Ant Clemons, Mike Dean, Timbaland, Pi’erre Bourne, Ronny J and others. Several Yandhi tracks were reworked like “Selah” which came from “Chakras,” and “Everything We Need” which was once “Tripple X (Storm).” Other songs like “New Body” and “Up From The Ashes” were cut at the last minute.

After missing release dates, the album was finally released on October 25, 2019, reportedly finished just days before launch. Its minimalist blue vinyl artwork mirrored the same simple disc design as Yeezus.

13 years ago today, A$AP Rocky dropped ‘F**kin’ Problems’, featuring Drake, Kendrick Lamar & 2 Chainz 🤯

This song became one of A$AP Rocky’s biggest hits and a defining posse cut for the 2010s. Featuring Drake, 2 Chainz, and Kendrick Lamar, the single peaked at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has since been certified 8× Platinum by the RIAA, making it one of Rocky’s most-streamed and commercially successful songs to date.

It was originally recorded by Drake during the Nothing Was the Same sessions with 2 Chainz, but he felt it was a throwaway and decided to give it to “somebody who was poppin.” That person was Kendrick Lamar, who recorded his verse but passed on using it for good kid, m.A.A.d city since it didn’t fit the album’s narrative. The track then made its way back to Drake, who ultimately handed it off to A$AP Rocky, letting him keep all the verses for his debut album Long.Live.A$AP.

With Drake co-producing alongside Noah “40” Shebib, the song became not only Rocky and Drake’s first official collaboration, but also one of the unlikeliest success stories in modern rap history.
