Kanye West: New album Jesus is King teased by Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian has apparently teased Kanye West’s next album, revealing its possible title, tracklist and release date on Twitter.

The cryptic announcement came in the form of a tweet on Thursday.

Kardashian shared a photo of what seems to be the album’s tracklist next to the prayer hand emoji – presumably in reference to the title featured at the top of the list, Jesus is King.

While Kardashian didn’t explicitly state that the list pertains to a new album by West, it seems like a safe bet – and it was by far the preferred theory among fans.

The titles listed on Kardashian’s photo include “Cade”, “Garden”, “Selah”, “God Is”, “Baptized”, “Sierra Canyon”, “Hands On”, “Wake the Dead”, “Water”, “Through the Valley”, “Sunday” and “Sweet Jesus” – hinting at a possibly religious-themed album.

Such a theme would echo West’s Sunday Service performance that he gave at Coachella in April.

The list ends with the date 27 September, which is presumably when the album will be released.

West’s most recent solo release, Ye, came out in 2018.

He has previously teased the release of an album titled Yandhi, but it has never debuted.
