Kanye West LP “done” and “dark”, says speculative DJ
By Aly Barchi | Published on Tuesday 30 April 2013
Apparently, Kanye West’s new LP – the heir apparent to 2010’s ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ – is “done”, the final edit having apparently been played to label execs at a Def Jam listening party last week.
Peter Rosenburg, a DJ at NYC-based station Hot 97, wasn’t present at the playback, but said live on air that he’d heard the TBA disc was “dark but really good”. So that isn’t a lot to go on, but still… it’s a start. Certainly, this ties in with hearsay that West has a new single – perhaps based on his designs on divinity – on the way, and may play it when he appears on ‘Saturday Night Live’ on 18 May.
