It looks as though Kanye West‘s girlfriend Kim Kardashian let the proverbial cat out of the bag regarding the enigmatic hip-hop star’s upcoming album and it’s title. Kim posted an Instagram photo last night (May 18th) that showed album artwork for ‘Ye’s highly-anticipated project alongside a pair of his custom-designed Air Yeezy sneakers.
“#Yeezus #RedYeezy’s #SNL #Tonight #NewSlaves #YeezySeason #Donda #June18,” her caption for the image read.
It is being reported by several outlets that Kanye’s new album is, in fact, to be called Yeezus. His sixth solo album will be available next month, specifically on June 18th.
As has become his trademark, Kanye appears to be unafraid of courting controversy on this album. The quasi-religious title will surely raise more than a few eyebrows, and he has debuted songs with titles like “Black Skinhead” and “New Slaves” that are musically and lyrically angrier and darker than much of his previous content.
He reportedly has tapped Chief Keef, Daft Punk and Azealia Banks to be among the guest stars on the album, which is the follow-up to 2010s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
