Kanye West has revealed via Twitter that his upcoming album, “Yandhi,” has been delayed for a second time, with the new projected release date unknown.
The artist performed with Kid Cudi over the weekend at Tyler, the Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw Festival, and it was apparently this appearance that led him to decide his solo album is not for release.
“After performing again, I realize the new album I’ve been working on isn’t ready yet,” he wrote in a tweet yesterday, Nov. 12. “I’ll announce the release date once it’s done.”
It felt so good being on the stage last night with my brother Cudi. After performing again, I realize the new album I’ve been working on isn’t ready yet. I’ll announce the release date once it’s done. Thank you for understanding.

West and Kid Cudi released their joint album, “Kids See Ghosts,” back in June, and he has since been at work on “Yandhi,” which he first announced in September.
He first set the “Yandhi” release for Sept. 29, but that day came and went with no news of the album. West then revealed in early October in an interview with TMZ that he had pushed the release to Nov. 23, Black Friday, so he could finish recording it in Africa.
While little is known of the album’s content, the rapper shared an 11-minute clip of new music in mid-October. KM
