Kanye West blames Jesus Is King delay on "specifically fixing mixes"

The Chicago rapper has delayed his Jesus Is King album for a third time, after it was originally slated for release on 27 September, before being delayed to the 29 September.

After being delayed twice, Kanye West broke his nine-month Twitter silence to announce that his new album would be dropping today (25 October).

The record was expected to arrive at midnight last night, but so far it's still nowhere to be seen. The rapper said on Twitter earlier this morning, "To my fans. Thank you for being loyal & patient. We are specifically fixing mixes on "Everything We Need" "Follow God" & "Water". We not going to sleep until this album is out!"
