More Kanye West News
UPDATE: The song was unfinished and leaked. Kanye has chosen not to release a new GOOD Friday track this week because of the leak.
Check out a new Kanye West song featuring Bon Iver called “Lost in the World”.
“It sounds exactly like how you want it to sound: forward moving, interesting, light-hearted, heavy-hearted, f***ing incredible sounding jam,” Vernon said. “It was kind of bare so I added some choir-sounding stuff and then thicked out the samples with my voice. We were just eating breakfast and listening to the song on the speakers and he’s like, ‘F***, this is going to be the festival closer.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, cool.’ It kind of freaked me out.”
