Watching the Throne: A Lyrical Analysis of Kanye West

Everything we know about Donda 2

Just when you thought it was over...
That's right. After a long, grueling journey of missed release dates, song changes, and Drake beef, Kanye West finally gave us Donda in 2021. And just a few months later...we're going through it all over again. So is Donda 2 really coming on Feb. 22? What do we know about the album so far? In this episode, we break it all down—and get our hopes up that Donda 2 might actually exist later this month.
