Kanye West Previews 2 New Tracks + Rants @ Secret NYC Show

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

UPDATE: Some of the original clips have been taken down so we are swapping in others as they come online...at the moment there's two decent versions of "Awesome" but none of the other, more dub-steppy song which people are speculating might be a Skrillex collabo. Stay chuned.

Kanye West put on a show in NYC at Roseland Ballroom for Adult Swim's Upfront event, while I've been sitting here in front of this damn computer screen all night (I lose). I've been waiting for better footage to hit the net, but it does not seem to be coming. So be advised, none of these videos are worth watching, but the sound quality is more than good enough to hit play on. Yeezy apparently had a near hour long set and performed music from his upcoming album. The first two clips give you a sample of two songs, one of which Hudmo already gave us, the other people are titling "Awesome" (and seems to be about Kim K), and the third is vintage Kanye ranting about why he's the worst celebrity, the paparazzi, his upcoming SNL appearance etc. "  I ain’t runnin’ for office. I ain’t kissin’ nobody’s muthafuckin babies. I drop your baby and you muthafuckin sue me and shit." - fantastic. Photo: Brooklyn Vegan
