A sprawling extended album that had a bit
of a legendary status before it was ever released – in part because Kanye West recorded part
of the record in the Mercedes Benz Stadium in
Atlanta while it was closed down during the pandemic! The set brings forward some
of the
spiritual themes
of the album's predecessor, but also has some sharper hip hop edges overall – and some
of the anger that reflects the changes that were taking place in Kanye's personal life at the time – reflected in a few
of the album's more intense tracks, which are usually some
of the best. Titles include "Jail", "God Breathed", "Hurricane", "Off The Grid", "Jonah", "Ok Ok", "Praise God", "Believe What I Say", "24", "Remote Control", "Moon", "Heaven & Hell", "Keep My
Spirit Alive", "Donda", and "New Again".
