Kanye West's "Selah" track from his new JESUS IS KING album has a very similar chord progression to an iconic track from the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time game.

The video game was originally released in 1998, and has been a long-running gaming series for Nintendo users.

As FACT reports, a Twitter user was listening to Kanye West's new album JESUS IS KING - which arrived last Friday (25 October) after three delays - when he noticed that the chord progression in the track "Selah" is very similar to that of Gerudo Valley from the Ocarina of Time soundtrack.

Last Friday (25 October), The Church of Satan also weighed in on Kanye West's latest LP, stating, "Satan is the best friend Kanye has ever had, as he will keep him in business all these years!"

The Chicago rapper also did a two-hour interview with Zane Lowe that dropped ahead of the album last week. During the interview West revealed he's in "complete service to God", and claimed to be "unquestionably, undoubtedly, the greatest human artist of all time."

After a JESUS IS KING IMAX showing earlier this month, Fake Shore Drive creator Andrew Barber posted 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."

Kanye West's JESUS IS KING album and iMAX film are both out now.
