This is Kanye West's 10th studio album to date and the title is a tribute to his late mother, Donda West, who passed away 14 years ago.
Some fans speculated that the new album would feature a Kim Kardashian diss track, due to the rapper's divorce with the aspiring lawyer.
While he doesn't seem to be ready to publicly diss the mother of his children, his track Welcome to my Life, Kanye does go over his difficult last two years which included his split with the reality star, a meltdown on Twitter and his failed presidential campaign.
Donda does not include his newly released single, Wash Us In The Blood, but it will include New Body, a song with Nicki Minaj and Ty Dolla $ign that was meant to feature on his previous album but was cut.
