The day is upon us. For weeks, hip-hop enthusiasts have been waiting for June 18 to roll around for the release of several highly-anticipated albums including projects from Mac Miller, J. Cole, Quasimoto, and Yeezus himself. Even though many of them fell victim to the evils of internet and were leaked early, there's still something about today that feels a little bit like Christmas for those of us that usually get coal.
Below, you'll find a full album stream of Kanye West's Yeezus exclusively for Spotify users. I guess everyone else will have to buy theirs on iTunes or pester friends with the leak for their copy, but be sure to accompany your first spin through West's sixth studio album with Big Ghost's review from OKP. So far, Yeezus has had a polarizing effect amongst listeners, with some hailing it as an artful development in Yeezy's career and others decidedly underwhelmed, given the amount of hype that has been swirling around its release. See for yourself below (if you have Spotify) and decide if you too pray to Yeezus. But in the meantime, check out LargeUp's roundup of Kanye's "most Jamaican moments" and I'll leave you with this tidbit from Ghost re: "I Am A God":
