“Donda” was originally scheduled for release on July 22, following the first of three elaborate listening events.
West took up residence at Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium to complete work on the album before holding a final event in Chicago on Thursday, where DaBaby, Marilyn Manson and Kim Kardashian West, who filed for divorce from West in February, participated.
West’s last album, the Grammy-winning gospel record “Jesus is King,” was released in 2019.
