JESUS IS KING
Following a revelation on Easter 2019 at Coachella, Kanye scrapped Yandhi and reworked it to focus on God and Christianity. This album ended up being JESUS IS KING. After a private listening party in Detroit, Kim Kardashian announced that the album would release on Sunday, September 29, following listening parties in Chicago and New York. It didn't, and there were no updates for almost a month. On October 20, 2019, Kanye suddenly reappeared on Twitter to announce the final release date.
