Earlier this month, G.O.O.D. Music COO Steven Victor announced that DONDA 2 was happening. “Ye has started working on his new masterpiece DONDA 2,” he told Complex. Ye would later confirm the album in a text message conversation with Moneybagg Yo.
DONDA 2 is shaping up to be a star-studded affair. Ye has been spotted in the studio with Travis Scott, A$AP Rocky, Moneybagg Yo, Big Sean, The Game, Hit-Boy, Five Foreign, Pusha T, and more.
He is also planning to launch his clothing collaboration with Skid Row Fashion Week the same day as DONDA 2, with proceeds going towards creating more jobs for the homeless.
Ye’s 10th studio album, DONDA, was released to streaming services on Aug. 29, 2021 after a series of delays. It opened at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, featuring appearances from JAY-Z, Travis Scott, Playboi Carti, Lil Baby, Lil Durk, Roddy Ricch, and more.
