The multiplatinum rapper held a listening for “Yeezus” on Monday in New York City. Hundreds were in attendance, including Jay-Z and wife Beyonce.
Kanye West said this album will represent his growth in the last two years. He also noted that he had to learn about giving, “this whole process is all about giving” he said. The 36-year-old says he now feels like he knows who he is.
West held the listening in the loading dock of Milk Studios in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood. The entire room was dark as a light display took place on the walls while 10 songs from the album played.
“Yeezus” is scheduled to be released on June 18th. The album has a dark and moody vibe, which goes beyond that of his previous solo efforts.
