After hopping back on Twitter to live-tweet the philosophy book he’s currently writing, Kanye West has finally tweeted the release date of his highly-anticipated eighth studio album.
He tweeted saying his album “is 7 songs” and will be released Friday, 1st June.

This comes after news broke that Kanye was recording his eighth album on a mountain top, because of course he was.
Perhaps more surprisingly, he has also announced that he and longtime collaborator Kid Cudi will be releasing a joint album the following week.
