Kanye West and AlBe Back’s ‘Israel’ Details the ‘Donda’ Rapper’s Encounter With “the Devil”
As fans anticipate a new Kanye West album to drop soon, some are getting antsy about its slow progress. Especially since it has been almost a year and a half since they have heard any new tracks from him. Since the 46-year-old has been working on his next record in Italy, many have wondered if it is nearing its release. Meanwhile, their wait was punctured by a track from AlBe Back’s ‘Dying Near a Charger’ that featured West.
Earlier, the Bronx rapper teased a short snippet from the song that contained West’s part. It would be safe to say that the theme of his part was rather dark.

Last month, AlBe Back released a preview of ‘Israel’ which was later reposted to Twitter, now X. The clip showed him bouncing about and singing along to West’s verse. One line that stood out was when Ye said that people only talk about this, whereas he had “seen a close-up” of “the devil“. The next line had him rapping about how he also held back on saying something hidden “every night.”
When the post initially appeared on X, fans were overjoyed by the glimpse of West’s raw thoughts after so long. What he was actually referring to in the verse and whether it was all a metaphor, remains to be disclosed.
Meanwhile, the father of four is currently fighting a different kind of evil. He has taken on an Instagram user in a legal battle for this reason.

On the other hand, it is becoming all the more possible that Ye and Bianca Censori may land in trouble of their own as their shenanigans in Italy recently disturbed locals, leading to a ban. Hopefully, all this havoc will not delay his work on the new album further.
