Kanye West says that there's a "new album coming this summer"
Kanye West says that the follow up to The Life Of Pablo is coming later this year.
In a lengthy Tweetstorm (swiftly following one that tore into big-name producer Bob Ezrin), Kanye accidentally almost-quoted Dizzee Rascal's "Bonkers", took aim at the Grammys' lack of diversity, chatted about freedom, and played down talk of his so-called "ego". He said a lot of things.
Hi Grammys this is the most important living artist talking.

But perhaps the most interesting thing that Kanye's revealed in this wave of rambling, semi-cogent, weirdly deep button mashing is that The Life Of Pablo isn't the only album that we're getting in 2016.
New album coming this summer

There we go; it's on the Internet. Now he's bound by the law to release K8 by August's end.
Today clips of a new song with Sampha, called "Saint Pablo" by the looks of things, hit the Internet. It was aired at Los Angeles club 1 OAK, and discusses his Twitter persona, his personal debut, and features the lines:
I'm not out of control, just nothing they control
I know I'm the most influential
That TIME cover was just confirmation
