via redfin.comMusic / NewsKanye West has changed the name of his album againThe long-awaited record – formerly known as Swish – is set for release on February 11ShareLink copied ✔️January 27, 2016MusicNewsText Dominique Sisley Just days after announcing the completion of his seventh studio album, Kanye West has trolled us all with an unexpected name change. The long-awaited record, formerly known as Swish (and, before that, as So Help Me God) will now be known as Waves – making it the third official title change in less than a year. West, who has already deemed the album as “the best of all time”, announced the change on Twitter last night: New album title, WAVES— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) January 27, 2016#Waves the album formally known as Swish 😭😭😭— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) January 27, 2016 He also included an updated version of the tracklist, which was originally posted earlier this week. The new, annotated version shows an extra track, “Ultra Light Beam”, as well as potential collaborations with A$AP Rocky, The-Dream and Swizz Beatz. #wavespic.twitter.com/fyER7NH8DC— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) January 27, 2016 However, despite all of Kanye’s evident excitement about the release, there have been some who are not so happy about the switch. Wiz Khalifa, after hearing the news last night, tweeted his disdain about the new title – claiming the name Waves was a rip-off of imprisoned rapper Max B’s “wave” movement. “Please don't take the wave,” Wiz tweeted. “Max B is the wavy one. He created the wave. There is no wave without him. He's the reason I sing on all my songs. That's the wave. If theres nothing wit that sound ITS NOT WAVY.” Kanye responded with a tweet to honour the original wave rapper’s legacy, before quickly expressing more enthusiasm about the record. “All respect to Andre Harrel and Max B,” he wrote, before adding: “I got this record niggas can't even play before 2 am.” “This is not album of the year. This is album of the life.” Waves is currently set for release on February 11 Escape the algorithm! Get The DropEmail address SIGN UP Get must-see stories direct to your inbox every weekday.
