![]() ![]() According to West's wife Kim Kardashian West, West's website crashed and the album will be available "in the next 10 minutes." Update 1:30AM ET: The album is now available to download at, but West's own website is still malfunctioning and a streamable version is pending. We've reached out to Tidal and to West's team for comment, and we'll update as necessary. Update February 14th 1:10AM ET: Is it really a surprise we're not getting The Life of Pablo without one last hiccup? Despite West's Saturday Night Live announcement that the album was available on Tidal and his website, we're still waiting on a functional stream West's website is still cycling a voicemail message from Yasiin Bey, one that's been there for weeks. (He also engaged in a "freestyle battle" with SNL's Kyle Mooney, one that used lyrics from the album's "I Miss the Old Kanye.") The first half-hour of the album's public availability was fraught: it didn't show up on Tidal and West's website until well after his SNL stint had concluded, leading to widespread consternation online. In the month since then, he's changed its title to Waves, picked a fight with Wiz Khalifa on Twitter, booked a date on Saturday Night Live, threw the world's largest listening party, and changed the title again. A series of singles released throughout 20 - paternal ditty " Only One," Rihanna collaboration " FourFiveSeconds," the grimy " All Day" - suggested an album was on the horizon, but they came and went without a larger release.Īfter releasing " Real Friends" and a snippet of non-album track "No More Parties in L.A." on January 8th, West announced that the album still known as SWISH would be released on February 11th. Rumors about his follow-up to Yeezus have circulated regularly since that album's release - at one point, it seemed plausible that he would release a companion record within a few months - and the recording process has been complicated by West's new fatherhood and his plunge into the fashion world. The road to The Life of Pablo has been bumpy, to say the least. It features the previously released " Real Friends" and high-quality versions of both "Wolves" and "Fade," tracks West premiered at earlier Yeezy Season unveilings throughout 2015. West premiered the album while unveiling his Yeezy Season 3 fashion line at Madison Square Garden yesterday afternoon. The Life of Pablo is West's seventh solo LP and first major release since 2013's abrasive Yeezus, and it's been known as So Help Me God, SWISH, and Waves at varying points during its production. ![]()
