DONDA [V1]
With new inspiration to work on an album dedicated to his mother, Kanye continued working on previous demos and new ideas. The music of this era reflects Donda's impact on Kanye in a colorful sound while reflecting his mania and the stress he was going through focusing on his businesses while also running for President. With multiple failed release dates for the album, Kanye went into silence in early 2021, finishing up tracks until the album morphed into something very different.
