Kanye West may be at SoFi Stadium enjoying Super Bowl LVI with a full-faced mask on, but he’s already preparing to let the world in on what Donda 2 sounds like.
Amid his social media drama with estranged wife Kim Kardashian and her new boyfriend Pete Davidson, the multi-hyphenate shared an announcement regarding his new album and which city would be the first to hear it.
“DONDA 2 2.22.22,” Ye’s label, Def Jam captioned a post on Instagram Saturday (February 12).” LoanDepot Park Stadium Miami, FL. Tickets on sale Monday @ noon.”

The difference between the initial Donda rollout and the early stages of Donda 2 is miniscule. While Ye premiered the album at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta and Soldier Field in his hometown of Chicago, the first stage of Donda 2 is taking place at Miami’s baseball stadium, which holds a maximum seated capacity of 37,442, the third-smallest in Major League Baseball.
