Kanye West may be convinced his new LP is the “best album of all time,” but the rapper can’t seem to settle on a name that sticks.
For, the project – originally due last year – was initially christened ‘So Help Me God’ only to be newly baptized as ‘SWISH.’
Now, just two weeks before its elaborate global roll-out, the set has undergone another name change.
Find out what Ye has opted for now…
Taking to Twitter, the MC simply, yet emphatically declared the following…
New album title, WAVES
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) January 27, 2016
Sigh.
Granted it’s his artistic licence to name his music whatever he wants, it’s important that he digests the fact that it’s the material that matters most. The title, in many ways, is kinda inconsequential.
After delivering front-loaded sales with previous album ‘Yeezus’ (327k debut, 630k US total), Mr West certainly has his work cut out for him.
Is said pressure the cause of the sudden change or was Kanye trolling the whole time for some reason only he knows?!
Either way, ‘Waves’ arrives February 11th.
Yeezus needs Jesus. Or therapy; you can’t tell me this guy doesn’t have some type of psychiatric disorder.
HES THE MOST EMOTIONAL RAPPER ALIVE.
HIS MUSIC IS JUST TOO MUCH, BORES ME, HES SELF-OBESSED AND HAS AN OVER INFLATED EGO.
JUST A TAD BIT G_A_Y. WHO MOLESTED HIM AND WHY? CHRIS STOKES AND BOYFRIEND MARQUES HOUSTON DID RAZ B, OMARION AND LITTLE FIZZ AND THEY ALL MESSED UP AND EMOTIONAL
Molestation or any type of sexual assault isn’t a joke. Chill
I think him and Rihanna are in competition to see who can troll their respective fan bases the most.
Man Yeezy this year has been a roller coaster. I think he changed the title, because it’s a different sound and project all together. I think SWISH was going to be a Yeezus 2.0 in terms of pushing the boundaries sonically and production as a whole. Whereas now, contingent on what he’s been releasing thus far, is a more stripped down, soulful Kanye that we all loved from the College Dropout days. Anyways, like I just said about Rihanna, this sh*t better be ???
Should call it mess
I’m still searching for reasons why I should give a fucxk… So far I haven’t found any.
sounds the same way that the GP feels about puchasing TPP
Omg wave just sound silly but can’t judge a sound by its title well will see swish I still like cause ppl was buying swish t shirt that had it on their
He should name it DiQ-head a day before release just cause he can PLUS it’s more fitting for what he’s become
LOL. I would rather Beyoncé didn’t say any words, and release an album straight away than changing titles 10000 times and unlocking 1 million doors.
Enough Kanye. I resent how he ushered in the oddball swagfag rapper (which then morphed into the hipster rapper.) I want shoot ’em up gangsta hip hop back.
Why dont he just name his album ‘TRASH’? Loser.
I’t doesn’t matter what name it is, i’ll still buy it.as long as the name elder can see it.
He should call it kW of his album
