As fans impatiently awaited the arrival of his new album, ‘Yandhi,’ rapper Kanye West took to ‘SNL’s season 44 premiere (as a last minute replacement for previously scheduled musical guest, Ariana Grande) to showcase some cuts from the new LP.

Dropping ahead of the night’s performance with Teyana Taylor and Kid Cudi respectively, look inside to see all of ‘Ye’s showings from the season premiere of #SNL:
