Kanye West Reportedly Working On A Comeback Album Amid Indecency Scandal In Italy

Despite multiple controversies, Kanye West is working on his comeback to the music industry. A new report claims that the rapper is in a "great headspace" and has finished almost ten tracks in just one week. The new album will reportedly have more of the "old Kanye" sound.

Fans went wild when West's "Jesus Is King 2" album collab with Dr. Dre recently leaked online. The rapper has been quiet on social media lately since the anti-Semitic controversy that cost him heavily. Amid news of his comeback album, West is still under criticism for a public indecency incident.

Kanye West is officially back in the studio for his next solo music project. Sources recently revealed to TMZ that the Grammy award-winning rapper is in a "truly great headspace." West has reportedly been completing songs rapidly, with almost ten finished tracks in just one week.

His last music project was over two years ago when he released the highly acclaimed "Donda" in 2021. In late 2022, the "Good Morning" rapper released a now-deleted "Censori Overload" track in tribute to his now-wife Bianca Censori.

According to the news outlet's sources, West's new project will feature themes similar to the "Old Kanye." The rapper is also working with Ty Dolla Sign, an artiste he's worked with severally in the past. There's speculation that the duo might create a joint album aside from West's solo project.

There's been heavy fan demand for new music from West, which became even more intense after a recent leak. Last week, the rapper's "Jesus Is King 2" album collaboration with Dr. Dre leaked on social media and drove fans into a frenzy.

"Jesus Is King 2" was meant to be the sequel to West's 2019 gospel album "Jesus Is King." The leaked project contained 15 songs with an impressive list of featured artists. There were collaborations with Eminem, Anderson Paak, Travis Scott, A$AP Ferg, and Snoop Dogg.

The album was mostly remixed versions of West's songs from the 2019 album, including "God Is" and "Everything We Need." With the excitement on social media concerning the leaked album with Dr. Dre, it looks like the upcoming project would do well.

According to the TMZ sources, there is currently no confirmed release date for the new project. The "All of the Lights" rapper is reportedly taking his time with the production to ensure the album maintains the quality his previous music projects have set.

West has been silent on social media and in public since his anti-Semitic controversy began in 2021. The anti-Semitic rants cost the Yeezy founder heavily, and he lost multiple brand partnerships, business deals, and his billionaire status.

One of West's most significant losses was his partnership with Universal Music's Def Jam Records. At the time, the label condemned the rapper's anti-Semitic stance. Their statement read, "Def Jam's relationship with Ye as a recording artist, its partnership with the GOOD Music label venture and Ye's merchandise agreement with Bravado all ended in 2021."

West has also been dealing with a public exposure and indecency controversy during his tour of Italy with his wife, Censori. The couple were recorded on the back of a river taxi in compromising positions, with West exposing his bare buttocks. Many locals recorded the scene on their phones and uploaded it to social media.

After the incident went viral on social media and garnered heavy criticism at West and Censori, an investigation was launched by Venice police. The River taxi company, Venezia Turismo Motascafi, also released a statement saying it was "completely unaware" of the couple's lewd act on their boat.

The statement explained that the taxi driver didn't notice because he was at the front, and his view was blocked by a third party. It further read, "The driver had to keep a lookout for traffic and did not see these obscenities. If this had happened, he would have immediately disembarked and reported the transgressors to those in authority." The couple has now been permanently banned for life from using the company's River taxis.
