Kanye West recently postponed his Australian tour to finish his heavily-rumoured new album, with more details of that release now surfacing.
According to Billboard, the LP will be 12 tracks in length and could feature the likes of James Blake, Evian Christ, French Montana and more. One source describes it as “mostly a mixture of soul samples and tamed ‘Yeezus’-esque darkness… nothing abrasive.”
The record is expected to drop before the end of 2014, with a lead single rumoured to be released before his wedding to Kim Kardashian this weekend.
