Of Course Kanye West’s ‘Donda’ Album Didn’t Drop On Schedule

    Kanye West was expected to deliver his 10th studio album Donda at midnight EST on Friday (July 23), but that magical hour came and went without any new uploads to Ye’s DSPs. But for anyone familiar with Kanye’s album rollouts, this truly isn’t surprising and almost expected at this point.

    In 2018, when Kanye held a listening party for ye at his Wyoming ranch, several journalists, DJs and producers — including Def Jam Recordings co-founder and frequent Kanye collaborator Rick Rubin, Eminem’s manager and Def Jam Chairman/CEO Paul Rosenberg and Charlamagne Tha God — were forced to sit around a campfire and listening to the crackling of burning wood after the event failed to start on time.

    Then after releasing “Wash Us In The Blood” with Travis Scott, Kanye promised Donda (previously called Donda: With Child) would arrive in July 2020.

    But that announcement appeared to bury another Kanye album allegedly called God’s Country, but neither of them ever materialized. Instead, Kanye dropped “Nah Nah Nah” and the “Nah Nah Nah (Remix)” before launching his failed presidential campaign.

    As the hours ticked by and Donda didn’t arrive, the frustration with the whole thing was palpable on social media.

    1. This is exactly why meek said CAP under that’s guys post who was sick riding Ye’s album. It was clear hats what he meant but you idiots took it him saying cap about his album being good…

    2. This is genuinely painful for me to say but.. what has happened to this site? I’ve been visiting every day more or less since like 06/07, back when the site was green! I am amazed you have posted an article about Kanye west’s album NOT dropping… but haven’t posted anything about the Lupe/Royce/Mickey beef. I get that you have sold out and want the money, but I discovered rappers like Micky Factz through this site. Now you can’t even report on the hottest/best beef in years? I am amazed. I thought this site was finished after you started posting about Nicki’s sales after she was bodied but Remy, but this is a new low. I am honestly gutted. Hip hop is officially dead in my eyes.

      1. Lol. Lupin and Royce have beef? Didn’t they host a podcast together? No one cares. It is 2021. Still, I am with Lupe if they have beef. Royce a lunatic, Lupe alright

      2. Hip Hop is dead because a site hasn’t reported on a beef? What? Since when was Hop Hop about websites?

    3. It will probably be ready in a week…just wants some hype before official release, not that big of a deal

    4. Its delayed because it sucks, his last album same happened, tries to fix it but its still gonna suck, kanye doesn’t have the music in him anymore guess he ran out of steam (and samples).
