    Sounding like he’s redoing his vocals on the songs. Promising

    Kanye still has what it takes to make a classic but the problem is it's just pieces of a puzzle. You can see bits of greatness here and there but it never quite hits like it should.

    When you hear something great it either gets ruined because it's too short or because it drags and turns into something else. That's when he's not rapping about some dumb s---.

    Fell to the wayside when Yandhi turned into Jesus Is King. This type of thing is what we mean when we say we watched Kanye ruin Yandhi in real time lol. He rewrote songs to fit the religious theme and trashed the ones he didn’t. Though Hurricane was a Yandhi songand that’s on this album so maybe he’ll pick more of these songs back up and finish em at some point.

    Also, couldn't have put it better than this—that's why it's so infuriating cuz you can see these glimmers of creativity that you know he could have made into something great 10 or even 5 years ago.

    I'd love that if you want to PM it to me.

    I wasn't even aware of the existence of these tracks.

    Were there 2 or 3 different versions of Wolves?

    There are these 2 but i'm pretty sure there was a 3rd version as well.





    Anyway it's a dope song.

    Yeah there's three main versions (discounting ones that split Frank Ocean into his own song)

    1. OG leaked one that he previewed at Yeezy Season (2?) but never got officially released. No rap verse, just singing verses from Vic, Sia, and Ye w/ Frank Ocean at the beginning of the song rather than the end (or split into "Frank's Track)

    2. Original release version. Just Kanye singing + kanye's rap verse at the end + Frank at the end.

    3. Imma fix wolves version. The one that's on streaming now (I think?) that has all of kanye's singing and rapping parts with Sia and Vic added back in.

    Wolves rap verse remains the worst thing Kanye has ever done

    d---, you know your s---

    The first version was definitely the best. But the quality of the one that surfaced here wasn't the best I think. Do you have that version by any chance?

    Yeah the OG wolves is amazing, rap verse just ruins the whole momentum of the song. I can upload and DM

    Hopefully Kanye changes the beat of Junya Watanabe. It sounds like circus mixed with bass diarrhea.
