During his Jesus Is King: A Kanye West Experience showing in Detroit on Saturday (28 September), Kanye West apparently stated that he will only be making gospel music in the future.

Kanye West was expected to drop his new Jesus Is King album last Friday (27 September), before his wife Kim Kardashian revealed the record would arrive Sunday (29 September) instead.

As of yet, ye's new album is still yet to arrive, but over the weekend the rapper hosted a series of screenings and performances to promote his new record.

On Saturday (28 September), he hosted a screening of his new film Jesus Is King: A Kanye West Experience in Detroit. Fake Shore Drive creator Andrew Barber revealed that Jesus Is King features a track with Clipse - the hip hop duo made up of Pusha T and his brother Gene "No Malice" Thornton - and Kenny G.

Barber also revealed on Twitter that the rapper plans to focus on gospel music in the future, "Kanye also announced that he is no longer making secular music. Only Gospel from here on out."

Adding a bit more detail about how Jesus Is King sounds, Barber wrote, "The beats on Jesus Is King sounded fire. He definitely pulled from elements of previous sounds that people loved from WTT, 808s, Yeezus, Cruel Summer & MBDTF and put a gospel spin on them."

Kanye West is becoming consistently inconsistent with his album release dates. Jesus Is King: A Kanye West Experience is due to arrive in US cinemas on 25 October.
