Hip-Hop Lives Here
Kanye West continues his extended DONDA rollout with the unveiling of the music video for “Come to Life,” the first visual released in support of the album.
The visual is comprised of footage filmed during West’s last live DONDA listening event, which was held last Thursday (Aug. 26) at Soldier Field stadium in Chicago and streamed on Apple Music. Impassioned and riveting, West’s performance of “Come to Life” drew rave reviews and caused an uproar on social media, as the rapper literally lit himself on fire. The 44-year-old rapper was joined by his estranged wife Kim Kardashian, who made a surprise cameo on stage while wearing a white wedding dress.
DONDA, West’s 10th studio album, was released this past Sunday (Aug. 29) following a myriad of delays and numerous changes to everything from the tracklist to the artists featured. The official version of the album, which is expected to debut atop the Billboard 200, includes guest spots from Jay Z, Lil Durk, Lil Yachty, Buju Banton, Fivio Foreign, Travis Scott, Baby Keem, Kid Cudi, Don Toliver, Jay Electronica, DaBaby, Marilyn Manson, Ty Dolla Sign, Sunday Service Choir, and more. If projections hold true, DONDA will yield Yeezy his highest first-week sales since Yeezus, which was released nearly a decade ago.

Raq Baby has been extremely productive this year, and his two song release "G6" and "SBBGFTN" shows how much he enjoys offering fans a steady stream of new music. On the first track, he leans into a relaxed and measured delivery while navigating rattling percussion, hazy synth layers, and an overall high energy beat. At moments, Raq Baby picks up the pace to match the constant snap of the snares, though he also pulls back to highlight his melodic ideas. For the second track, he performs over Childish Gambino's "3005," giving the familiar song a new spark through more indulgent and confrontational writing. It is an unexpected direction, yet one that works well because of the mix of charm and nostalgic appeal.
