SWISH
After changing the name of his 7th solo album from So Help Me God to SWISH, Kanye began to develop all new songs throughout mid-late 2015 meant for the album, with most of them eventually making it onto the final release of The Life of Pablo. Kanye also continued to work on many So Help Me God and Yeezus 2 tracks, but by the end of 2015 and the start of 2016, Kanye had dropped most of these tracks from the tracklist for SWISH, which began to resemble the final TLOP tracklist strongly.
