“June Eighteen”
That was the two word tweet that Kanye West dropped 4 days ago. What does it mean? It signifies the date he’s dropping his 6th studio album.
Why is this album so big? Electronic greats like Daft Punk and Skrillex are going to be collaborating with the charismatic rapper. Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel had two different things to say about Kanye, saying he, “..doesn’t give a f**k,” and that, “He’s a good friend.” West collaborated with the French duo to create two tracks that are said to be, along with the rest of the album, “even darker and more twisted,” than Kanye’s most recent LP My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
This is all of the information we can get about this album, but we’re marking June 18 on our calendars. Are you?
