Kanye West has sent the internet into a frenzy over the past 72 hours and he is just getting started.
After appearing at Ice Cube’s Big 3 basketball game in Vegas, Ye apparently played DONDA for social media personality Justin LaBoy and NBA star Kevin Durant. In a number of tweets, Justin then took to Twitter to reveal his thought on the album to build more anticipation.
“Kanye West album is really done. When it drops this week, we probably not going to listen to anything else for a while.,” he says. Let me go enjoy all the current artist I’m listening to until then. God bless
He then called DONDA, the “album of year.”

Tickets went on sale Monday afternoon for another upcoming listening experience on Thursday at Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

While all of this has occurred from Ye, his team, and attendees of the first DONDA experience, the father of 4 has yet to utter one word. During the first listening experience in Las Vegas on Sunday, attendees doubled down on the fact that Kanye West did not “say one word.”
As far as the album is concerned, many features have been speculated including Travis Scott, Baby Keem, Griselda, Post Malone, Pusha T, Lil Baby, Kacyy and more. The general consensus around West’s song with Lil Baby has been all praise.

On Tuesday, Kacyy took to Twitter to reveal that the DONDA experience is coming to Rolling Loud Miami this weekend. Ye’s longtime collaborator and friend, Consequence, also took to his socials to reveal drawings of concert arrangements.

The album rollout is impressive, to say the least. We have yet to hear one word from everyone but Mr. West. Instead, it is safe to say that Yeezy is putting all his words into the music.
