"Donda" is finally here after Kanye West dropped the much-anticipated album, named after his late mother, on Sunday.Following several listening parties, the album is now available on streaming services. It features 26 tracks and is nearly two hours long. Big names including Jay-Z, Kid Cudi, Travis Scott, the Weeknd, Pusha-T, and Young Thug, among others, all feature. Many die-hard fans are heaping praise on "Donda," calling it "a masterpiece," "gasoline," and Kanye's best album to date.However, some are disappointed with Kanye's latest work; one listener said it made his ears "drip with blood":The record follows a number of high-profile listening sessions in Chicago and Atlanta, where the rapper pulled a flurry of publicity stunts to fuel interest for the album.One such incident saw him emerge from a replica of his house while the word Donda was repeated on speakers, as black and white photos of his mother were beamed onto a giant screen.Kanye, however, wasn't alone: at one point he stood on the porch of the replica home together with Marilyn Manson, who is facing multiple accusations of sexual abuse, and rapper DaBaby, who recently came under fire for his comments about gay men and HIV-positive people.In a blazingly weird stunt, Kanye also set himself on fire......before staging a "mock wedding" with his estranged wife Kim.Kanye named the album after his beloved mother Donda, who died at the age of 58 in 2007 of "coronary artery disease and multiple post-operative factors due to or as a consequence of liposuction and mammoplasty."

Kanye West Finally Drops 'Donda' and Fans Hail Long-Awaited Album as 'Masterpiece'
Over the past few weeks, the rapper has held a number of "Donda" listening events, every time putting on a spectacular show – he's set himself on fire, had a mock wedding (ostensibly with his estranged wife Kim Kardashian), and even brought scandal-plagued Marilyn Manson and DaBaby on stage.
"Donda" is finally here after Kanye West dropped the much-anticipated album, named after his late mother, on Sunday.
Following several listening parties, the album
is now available on streaming services. It features 26 tracks and is nearly two hours long. Big names including Jay-Z, Kid Cudi, Travis Scott, the Weeknd, Pusha-T, and Young Thug, among others, all feature.
Many die-hard fans are heaping praise on "Donda," calling it "a masterpiece," "gasoline," and Kanye's best album to date.
However, some are disappointed with Kanye's latest work; one listener said it made his ears "drip with blood":

One such incident saw him emerge from a replica of his house while the word Donda was repeated on speakers, as black and white photos of his mother were beamed onto a giant screen.
Kanye, however, wasn't alone: at one point he stood on the porch of the replica home together with Marilyn Manson, who is facing multiple accusations of sexual abuse, and rapper DaBaby, who recently came under fire for his comments about gay men and HIV-positive people.

estranged wife Kim.
Kanye named the album after his beloved mother Donda, who died at the age of 58 in 2007 of "coronary artery disease and multiple post-operative factors due to or as a consequence of liposuction and mammoplasty."
