His career has been a spectacle for fans worldwide, showcasing his highs and lows in ways even unknown to him. Witnessing the Atlanta native revolutionize a genre, evolve personally, and still be the greatest of all time has been a watch-fest for the Ye crowd. As a result, both his current work and past projects continue to havoc, with a recent example being a fan's committed probing for his ‘Good Morning’ music video.

However, digging can yield more than expected, and that is exactly what happened when the fan's search uncovered a trove of unreleased songs.

A Reddit user, u/potaaaaato123, recently discovered the HD-quality version of Ye’s ‘Good Morning’ music video from his 2007 album ‘Graduation’ on Vimeo. The video had reportedly been on Vimeo for over three years without anyone noticing. As the clip began circulating on fan pages, GoodAssSub on X pointed out a scene towards the end that revealed a hidden cache of unreleased and unknown songs.

The outlet listed ‘Jesus Wacks,’ ‘Thank God,’ and ‘Touch It’ (reportedly released on Pusha T’s ‘Fear of God’ mixtape) among the discoveries. These titles appear in the final segment of the video, moving through the flying sequence of the ‘Graduation’ tracklist. Some of the songs remain unidentified, and, like the video itself, this list had been concealed for years and only recently came to light.

The NFR Podcast on X recently highlighted a statement from Channel Candy’s CEO, who collaborates with Ye to curate his iconic listening parties. Following his recent sold-out event in Goyang, South Korea, the Atlanta rapper is reportedly considering hosting another event to match the success of the Korean LP. But that is not the only news keeping fans on edge—the inspiration from Goyang Gongyeon could influence his new album, serving as a brief intermission from the ‘Vultures’ series.

The report also revealed the rapper’s renewed dedication to performing live and releasing new albums, hinting that Ye’s upcoming project might be a Channel Candy exclusive. Fans’ deep dives into his extensive discography already demonstrate their devotion to his music, and the excitement surrounding the new solo album proves that the Atlanta native remains a legend in both classic and contemporary hip-hop.
