Kanye Album Gets New Release Date
October 4, 2010 @ 12:10 PM EDT
News
Kanye’s fifth album still doesn’t have a title, but it does have a new release date. A couple weeks ago, he told Angie Martinez that the album would drop on November 16th. But now, Rap-Up says the project will be in stores on November 22nd. So far, confirmed guests include Nicki Minaj, Justin Vernon, and T.I.
UPDATE: No date set. What the…?
UPDATE Dos: Rap-Up ain’t lie. They had it right all along.
Let’s hope that date sticks. No title yet though, huh?
If the music is as tight as the Good Friday joints, this album is going to be a problem.
I was under the impression that it was titled “Dark Twisted Fantasy” ? ?
Its gon be a fire album!
i just hope it actually drops
unlike Detox, Venom, and R.E.D.
He should just name it BIG AZZ HEAD
This shit is not droppin till the day its in peoples hardrives. Wtf is a venom?
Kanye is looking for that monster single and it’s just not happening! Good luck my nigga!
I thought it was called “Donda’s Baby Boy”. *kanYe shrug*
Kanye said the 16th, RapUp says 23rd. So Rap-Up is DefJam record?
Could you RR at least assume RR is the one wrong here and not Kanye?
Wouldn’t Kanye know better than Rap_up when his own is dropping?
Just saying, the article seems like just cause Rap-Up said it it means so.
Rap-Up.com has learned that Yeezy will drop his still untitled fifth effort on November 22. This is typically one of the biggest release weeks of the year and the Monday before Black Friday when U.S. shoppers flock to stores to get a head start on their holiday shopping.
da fuck, it’s 22? not 29, read the original article
yessssssssss ! cant wait
android, mac weasel and belize can fuck eachother
hurry up
wow I need it in my life asap! If this shit gets shelved I’m gonna quit listening to music cause if Kanyes not dropping and whack ass rick ross is then fuck rap lol. But for real, he needs to come out with a real banger single, with a real video, a la stronger, jesus walks, heartless, gold digger…something of the sortt.
kanye….drop it already….follow s@angeredrebel
@ Haters are annoying
WUT UP STAN!!!! THANKS FOR THE SHOUT OUT!!!! KEEP PROMOTIN’ THE mac DIESEL NAME FOR FREE!!!! HA!!!! FUCKIN’ CORNBALL!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
November 23rd?? Ain’t that banks and nickis release dates too? Hell no, kanye gonna fuck up somebody sales
^^^^
Its also the same day Ye and Jay suppose to drop the Watch the Throne shit too.
Damn, gonna be a busy day then. I expect some of those dates to change though
HFM2 + Kanye’s album. damn…….
is hip hop gonna dominates the charts? lets hope!!!
In some whatunrelated news
Lloyd Banks new single is supposed to be dropping soon called CELEBRITY with Akon and Eminem, somebody said Kanye on it too but I dunno I keep readin stuff on the net and Twiiter that say its just Banks, Akon, and Em but if Kanye on it that’d be hot too. And then Em got the NO LOVE video coming out this week too I heard. Gonna be a productive week of downlaoding for me this week
@Word he should not drop than Nicki will fuck around and do A Mil 1st week, so shes gonna fuck up Both they’re Sales (even though Banks is never gonna sell)
WHATS THE WORLD COMING TO YALL THINK LOYD BANKS WHO YOU CAN BARELY UNDERSTAND WHEN HE RAPS IS NICE WOWW
Nicki N Kanye>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> anything else that drops that day>>>>>>>>> LOYD BANKS
@SayAhh
Nah, thats a little far fetched…500k first week sounds about right. Actually, I dunno if she gonna outsell Drake or not but if she do its prolly gonna be 500k. If not, then in the 330k area. Kanye gonna do 300k to 500k I think. Banks gonna do anywhere from 150k and below, but 150k the roof for him IMO. That sales though, in terms of who gnona have the better album
Kanye
Banks
Nicki (not saying her shit gnona suck, but come on now. I wish she would put out a better album than Kanye. Banks might surprise)
Here go link to the artwork for CELEBRITY with Akon and Eminem ,its coming soon yalll!

@Word yea 1 Mil is far fetch but she will def go platinum a couple weeks later or month i hope she sells more than Drizzy tho… and i think we ALL dont know what to expect from an Album of hers i just have a feeling shes gonna suprise… ill probably DL banks album though and Buy Nickis
^^ yea yall right 1 Mil too much since Drake only did 450 or something but she could do more than him
Yeah…Nicki gonna do anywhere from 300k to 500k that’s a given. Is the album gonna be good, that’s the real question. I feel like there’s gonna be some cuts, but ultimatly its gonna turn out decent. Don’t forget there’s a possibility she could have more Massive Attacks on her album…
I think Ye’s will be the best bet of the pack. Nicki may surprise but idk. I’ll have to hear it first. Waaaay back in the day, Kimberly and Inga released their solo debuts in November 1996. And honestly, those were both fire albums. I don’t think this fact is lost on Onika but she needs to come hard. The comparison will be everywhere. I think Banks will release a solid effort.
Wtf! Whats with the Nicki stannery! Lmao male barbies?! Watch that bitch do 108k in November. Foh.
@word
If you think Nicki is selling that many record your high….just the other day Billboard magazine said she projected to sell about 150,000 and Ye is projected to sell about 400,000.
her singles are not even fully out…
they also said Lil Wayne is projected to do 225k in his 3rd week of “I Am Not A Human Being” when its released Physically Oct 12 it has NO promotion and is going to be out for 2 weeks already online
Damn, Kelly Osborne looking fine as hell…
Alofoke I want this out alrdy and I wanna hear that cudi good music papo
@SayAhh ..how da fuk you gonna project what a album gonna sell thats not even out?. nigga u makin dat shit up ya self
@So Icy Boi
Exactly what I was thinking. How can you project somebody sales before its even out? All you can do is speculate or give an educated GUESS based on reviews and word of mouth, but projections take into account the actual rate at which people are buying it by the hour, day, so on.
Niggas is dumb.
Graduation almost went platinum in the first week. Nicki is less popular than Drake and his Canuck ass took forever to get Gold.
Kanye 600-750K
Nicki-200K
rockin
what do mean drake to forver he went gold the first week nigga
and i think nicki will do 200,00 cause she doesnt have as much buzz as drake
Kanye will sell most (and better not name it “Green Friday” or “Kanye Friday” or some shit, haha) 1st week.
Onika will sell 2nd most 1st week since horny men who can’t get a real bitch for their own let their hormones take over they minds and will buy it for ass-bear-all pics, but when there ain’t any will throw it away.
Banks will sell least since G-Unit’s reign is done and niggas will only spend $15 on ONE album and will get Menaj’s in hope of the ass shots, and will end up wit nothing. -_-
@Haters are annoying: Keep stalking me you bored lil pussy.

Who’s that chick in that pic anyway?
I heard Mos Def signed to g.o.o.d music
So this a post about him not makin up his made yet?? ..
HE SHOULDA PUSHED THAT “POWER” SINGLE A LITTLE MORE!!!! HE SHOULDA HAD A PT. 2 FOR THE VIDEO!!!! HE’S TRYIN’ TO FINDIN’ THAT HIT SINGLE CUZ THERE’S NOT ENOUGH HYPE OR BUZZ AROUND THE ALBUM LIKE HE EXPECTED I GUESS!!!! *KANYE SHRUG*
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
@mac DIESEL,
You’re 100% right but it’s really hard to find sucess when people are only looking for Eminem, Drake, Lil’ Wayne and Nicki Minaj…not that those artist suck but I mean Lil’ Wayne, Drake and Nicki Minaj are overrated plus Nicki’s singles have been horrible…
@mac DIESEL ..POWER was trash dumb azz nigga aint that much u can push off a trash song… thats why it flopped….Kanye fell off all other big artist are all fellin off ..
Who’s that chick in that pic anyway?
^
kelly osbourne,
Billboard predictions are wrong most of the time.
@ Ultrakid
I DON’T THINK NICK MINAJ OR A DRAKE IS A PROBLEM FOR KANYE!!!! HE’S BY FAR A MUCH BIGGER STAR THAN BOTH OF ‘EM!!!! MAYBE HE’S THINKIN’ ABOUT THE HUGE HYPE AROUND LIL WAYNE’S PRISON RELEASE!!!! THAT COULD BE THE REASON WHY HIM AND DEF JAM DON’T HAVE A RELEASE DATE!!!! THEY WAITIN’ FOR THAT WAYNE WAVE TO PASS!!!! WHO KNOWS, U CAN ONLY ASSUME WUT THESE NIGGAS IS THINKIN’!!!! *KANYE SHRUG*
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
If Kanye gotta wait for Lil Wayne buzz to die down than that tells you who more popular…
@ So Icy Boi
U SAY “POWER” WAS TRASH WHILE U GIVE PROPS TO GUCCI MANE FOR HIS LYRICS AND MUSIC!!!! THAT’S AN OXYMORON!!!! HA!!!! CHITLIN ASS BAMA!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Releasing it on a Monday?…well, he released 808s on a Sunday…how bout this nigga push it UP?!?!?
Mannn….Bring On the water!
Lmao…this is like watching titantic…Yeezy let disater strike already!
Nov.23 is gonna be a busy day! Ye will always do numbers…Ima guess 800k mark depending if ppl forgave him with the taylor swift crap…Nicki is gonna do better than Drake…she got the kids, so thats def. gona be a stocking stuffer. Banks gona to 300k..if he’s promoted right!
I like to see rap take the charts back…so go out and support favorite rapper! Or sum1 you wana see win.
^^^disaster typo
@Itz Yourz ..you fans are delusional Kanye 800k Lloyd Banks 300k “Power”
I could see Kanye doin like 600 to 700k in his first week or at least goin gold cause his fan base is huge and he makes that good music. What I can’t see is Nicki selling as much as people think she will.
Kanye need to make up his mind before
A. That shit leaks
B. People stop giving a fuck
or C. Wayne get out and start the YM wave again
Oh and D. While Monster is still buzzing, I mean radio loving it for Nickis verse but it IS Knayes song
Imma cop Ye shit just cuz he got his Ego in check now and he making mostly good music with GOOD Fridays, So Appalled is my favorite out of all the track he’s released.
Y
Kanye will be lucky to do around 400 or 500 k
UPDATE: No date set. What the…?
—–
exactly. i told yall how the heck u take Rap_up word as if they Def Jam
lol @ Nicki selling more than drake LMFAO! nigga please
@kanye quit that twitter shit and keep it real bitch
he´s not gonna do big numbers .. anyway
You’re a FOOL with you think Nicki will do anything close to 500K+ first week. FUCK OUTTA HERE
Drake had the biggest buzz since 50 back in 02, and he did like 450K first week
Nicki will be lucky if she does 400K first week. I’d say around 300K
Kanye around 500K, and Banks around 150K (200K if he’s very lucky)
took a look at the picture! first thought hes acting white cause of his clothes and all the white people around him but thats no problem! hes acting gay sitting in gay clothes between all these gay people! kanye suck a dick and ride out!
West= 550k +
Nicki= 250k MAX
Banks= 100-150k MAX Hes dope but he waited to long to drop… Beamer Benz is too old to carry him now, needs another hit

yeezy is really playing out his buzz with twittter. at this point i don’t really care anymore, his music so far has been sub-bar but im still a fan thow, no hate.

ALBUMS GONNA BE CRAZY!
HEARD LA REID BOUT TO GET THE DUECES SIGN…..AND CHRIS LIGHTY BOUT TO GRAB THE REIGNS
still a wait yet hope that date sticks
taylor swift is going to sell more than kanye and nicki combined. shame to admit but its true.
^^Taylor swift went 6x platinum on her last album, thats a number Kanye and the rest of the hip hop community can only dream of. Thats why I thought it was funny that people thought kanye made taylor “relevant”, lol…..
@YoYo…actually Taylor went 10x platinum!
Feels good to have Kanye releasing an album soon can’t wait to cop it
Kanye West saved Hip-Hop. The music industry needs more talented artists like Kanyes. This will be the biggest release week for music this year. Nicki Minaj will be dropping her debut album Pink Friday, Lloyd Banks will be dropping his album Hunger For More 2, Akon will be dropping his album Akonic, Ne-Yo will be dropping his album Libra Scale, and Flo Rida will be dropping his album The Only 1. http://yodonbleekraps.com/
@Don Bleek,
Sales wise Eminem got shit on lockdown but quality wise Kanye runs the industry…
Check out New Artist Six Reasons HOT New Sound coming from the west coast A must SEE artist right here right now Sounds like Kanye WESt http://tinyurl.com/2aj84vq
go kanye ! another hip hop album for the year
Remember when Tupac said he won’t change the world but he will spark the mind of the person who does? Well listen to dolla’s music n you’ll see
With all them albums droppin that week (when prices are lowered or summin?) it’s not gon’ be that great cuz if you wanna buy an album you’ll only buy one and unless you’re a sex-crazed bum you gonna not buy Onika’s…Especially with a Kanye album.
i dont think lloyd banks will do good number’s.he has good lyrics dont get me wrong but he sounds like a whispiring retart.nicki minaj i dont know,when drake dropped against eminem drakes numbers where i believe 500k first week i may be wrong i think it’s less.drake had a little more buzz then nicki minaj.i would say 250k for nicki,kanye 650k,lloyd banks 110k if that nobody cares about g-unit anymore they suck 50,banks and yayo all suck they been garbage for awhile if you still listening to g-unit your gay.seriously lloyd banks suck’s and rick ross suck’s.where’s the good hip hop and rap at nothin been as big as when carter 3 came out maybe eminem.wish jay-z has somethin comin in november but i doubt it.
JAY-Z CAN YOU DO ME A FAVOR PLEASE DROP SOMETHIN IN NOVEMBER.I KNOW YOU READ RAP RADAR PLEASE DO AT LEAST A MIXTAPE.HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN SINCE YOU HAVE DONE A OFFICIAL MIXTAPE.WHAT ABOUT SONGS YOU SCRAPPED FOR ALBUMS.IM YOUR BIGGEST FAN IN THE WORLD.JAY-Z YOU USE TO HAVE A ALBUM EVERY NOVEMBER DROP SOMETHIN I KNOW YOU READ RAP RADAR IVE HEARD YOU READ THE COMMENTS.
