Friday was a great day for Yeezy fans. Ye dropped a new track, “Real Friends” featuring Ty Dolla Sign, that was accompanied by a snippet of “No More Parties in LA” featuring Kendrick Lamar. But Ye really put the icing on the cake when he revealed in a tweet that his seventh studio album, SWISH, (formerly called “So Help Me God”) will be dropping February 11, which just so happens to fall in place with All-Star weekend.
Swish was slated to drop some time in 2015, but was continuously pushed back. In September, Kanye sat down for a interview with Vanity Affair and revealed that he wasn’t sure when Swish would be released stating, “I’m not worried about the years. I’m worried about the life and the body of work that I can put out while I’m breathing.” Ye has definitely been put blood, sweat, and tears into his upcoming album releasing a number of supporting singles including “Only One”, “FourFiveSeconds”, “Wolves”, “Fade”, “All Day”, and “Facts”.
Wife Kim Kardashian announced that Yeezy would be reinstating G.O.O.D. Fridays tweeting, “🎼🎼🎼 Friiiiiiday!!!! New music!!!! #EveryFriday #Swish #RealFriends 🎼🎼🎼 🔥🔥🔥.”
Swish is a follow-up to Kanye’s 2013 Yeezus album, which sold more than 630,000 copies in the United States.
