Ye made a surprise appearance at Yo Gotti’s album release party at L.A.’s 1OAK night club last night (Feb 23). And similar to his recent Yeezy Season fashion show at MSG earlier this month, he plugged the aux cord into his laptop and played an unreleased joint for the crowd.
The seven-and-a-half-minute song, which features guest vocals from elusive UK singer Sampha and a sample of Jay Z’s “Where I’m From,” is supposedly titled “Closest Thing to Einstein.” The track finds an introspective Ye discussing his recent Twitter outbursts (“People tryna say I’m going crazy on Twitter/My friend’s best advice was to stay low”), $53 million debt (“I can’t say no to nobody/And at this rate we gon’ both die broke”) and mental state (“This generation’s closest thing to Einstein/So don’t worry about me, I’m fine”).
While there’s been no word, perhaps we’ll find this on the final version of TLOP or as a G.O.O.D. Friday loosey. Check it out.
