Atlanta-bred producer Digital Nas has revealed the detailed parameters Kanye West has put in place for the recording of his upcoming DONDA 2 album.
In an interview with Rolling Stone on Friday (January 28), Digital Nas, who produced “Junya” and “Remote Control” for DONDA last year, explained how Ye has set forth a standard for the project which specifically requires the music to be appropriate to play during four major moments in the span of any given person’s lifetime.
“These are the directives for the album,” Digital Nas began. “If it cannot be played at a funeral, childbirth, graduation, a wedding, it will not be on our record. We learned a lot from DONDA 1. We learned what hit. We learned what was sticking. So we took from there. It has to be able to be played at four major moments in people’s lives. That’s crazy, right?”
The 23-year-old also went on to discuss DONDA 2 studio sessions with artists such as Travis Scott along with the album’s executive producer Future, who Digital Nas said he recorded a “Phenomenal” song with.

In recent weeks, Kanye West has also linked up in the studio with artists such as Pusha T, A$AP Rocky, The Game, Big Sean, Fivio Foreign, Hit-Boy, Scarface, DJ Khaled, will.i.am and NFL star Antonio Brown. He’s also teased a collaboration with Memphis rap star Moneybagg Yo, after requesting a verse via text earlier this month.
Ye is apparently so invested in the process behind DONDA 2 that he has decided to disconnect from all distractions by ditching his cell phone until the album is released.
“I don’t have a phone until two, twenty-two, twenty-two,” Ye said in an Instagram video. “My focus is taking my kids to school and finishing the album.”
Album will be pushed back multiple times and will be titled something else. Bet on it.
it’ll be pushed back but not retitled. he happily pocketing another 500million off his mama name that’s the reason Stanyes got fooled into thinkin they be buying the illest shit but meanwhile
He’ll get his wish partially. They’ll use his music at all the aquariums with all the tanks with the GayFish. Other than that, ain’t nobody gonna want to listen to that BS.
I farted, there’s bubbles
Dork
F@99!+
Take your meds like any other mental patient ffs!
So ignorant what he symbolises for others with problems. Justifying it’s fine to just go with the flow.
Yeezus was his last great album. Man I wish he made another one, but I do not believe it is going to happen. Kanye wack for a minute.
If he has his own way it will be garbage like his last 3 projects. Donda had a couple of decent songs, but the problem with his stans (which at this point are worse than prime Eminem stans) is they think everything he touches is a classic. This album had absurd levels of promotion, which is why it was streamed a lot at first, but obviously if the music doesn’t hold up in this era you’re gone. Look at the decline in his numbers in week 2 and 3. MBDTF, CD etc would have been streamed for months, but this garbage is here today, gone tomorrow. Too many yes men, and too many delusional fans have ruined this once great artist
so how will that sound. i can’t imagine.
Yawn.
For dweebs
Overrated artist mainly known for his tantrums, break downs, schizophrenia, armenian ex wife… and stealing other producers style such as daft punk, bon iver, no id, etc to make his albums. FOH!
These stans stay gassing this fools head.
Illmatic and the Blueprint got that covered already. Find another consept ye. You aint got it in you.
Wouldn’t that require Kanye to relate to other people?
If it was record sales his last album donda would be considered a big ass FLOP! BEFORE this streaming shit ppl where able to test listen to a cd and then decide if it’s good enough to buy! That’s how 2pac, Eminem and 50 cent sold over 10 million copies with 1 album. This streaming shit is bullshit. I listened to Kanyes donda and it was pure SHIT, never gonna listen to it again and I bet everybody in here don’t know a whole verse of that album because it SUCKED!
That’s definitely not true. A lot of ppl sold albums because there was a lack of competition. Ppl ran out and bought albums on tues because of 1 song then you realized the album was trash.
Lack of competition? Did your moma drop you on the head? The hell is wrong with you?
Coming soon….Donda 2!! The soundtrack of ass! Music you can take a shit to! Get your preorders in now!!
The first Donda album was an absolute masterpiece. I’m amped to hear the sequel.
