Ye has finally released his Donda 2 album on streaming services three years after he debuted it.
On Tuesday night, April 29, the Chicago native teamed up with YouTuber N3on to livestream a listening session for Donda 2 with producer Digital Nas. The sequel to his successful album Donda dropped on streaming services at midnight under the artist name "Donda." Ye's album comes with 18 tracks including lead singles "True Love" with the late XXXTentacion and "City of Gods" with Fivio Foreign and Alicia Keys. While fans will be excited to hear the album on streaming services for the first time, Ye made slight changes that some people might notice.
The artist formerly known as Kanye West originally dropped the album on his Stem player in 2022 following his massive listening session in Miami. At the time, some songs he played during his concert-style listening event were incomplete. Now, three years later, the completed versions of tracks like "530" with Ty Dolla $ign and "Sci Fi," which features a sample of his ex-wife Kim Kardashian's monologue from Saturday Night Live," appear on the streaming version along with 15 other songs. Other songs that didn't make the cut include "Eazy" featuring The Game and "Flowers."
Despite the changes, Future reportedly remains the executive producer of the project. Ye also kept the original album cover, which features an image of his childhood home on fire. Ye dropped Donda 2 several weeks after debuting his experimental BULLY album featuring Dave Blunts.
