"Saint Pablo," which was known as "The Closest Thing to Einstein" when Kanye West debuted it at an L.A. listening party last month, has leaked in full.
The six-minute track, which features Drake collaborator Sampha and samples Jay Z's "Where I'm From," is many things in one: A venomous commentary on the media's armchair diagnoses ("People tryna say I'm goin' crazy on Twitter"), an affirmation that the $53 million debt he spoke of isn't a joke, and a look at his unparalleled ego combined with a tendency to "crowdsource his self-esteem."
And, naturally, it has Kanye West's signature brand of braggadocio, with comparisons to Einstein and a "modern-day MJ with an Off the Wallflow."
Kanye also details his decision to release his seventh studio album, The Life of Pablo, exclusively on Tidal rather than Apple.
When I was negotiating with Apple, it was Larry and me
Told Tim Cook to call me, I was scary to see
Only took a hundred million and gave twenty to Hov
I was already getting it when we only have a stove
But it's better that I stayed at home with my folks
Cause if Jay a billionaire then I'ma never go broke
The line comes at an interesting time, considering The Life of Pablo is set to be released on streaming services, including Apple Music on Friday.
UPDATE 10:00 p.m. PT: Mashablehas removed a SoundCloud embed of the song that went dead. The song leaks on SoundCloud and other sites started to be taken down late Thursday following copyright infringement notices.
