It is that time of the year. Yes, with the year ending as Christmas decorations start adorning homes all over, the entertainment industry gets to counting numbers. In the realm of music, things went sufficiently full this year, with Taylor Swift and Beyoncé pulling in millions with their respective concert tours and movies. In the rap world, recent releases by Drake and Nicki Minaj kept the streams running, but Kanye West remained largely absent from the scene. The rapper dropped a few collaborations and one full title song off his upcoming album alongside Ty Dolla $ign, ‘Vultures’.

In swift motion, however, December has him picking up steam as a string of developments oozed out alongside a tracklist and album art.

Arguably one of the most anticipated upcoming albums, Kanye West is aligning all the stars for ‘Vultures’ before its final flight. In the freshest of updates, Ty Dolla $ign showcased an entire tracklist as well as an album art hand-drawn by Ye. Soon after, Russian streetwear designer Gosha Rubchinskiy reposted the same in his Instagram stories alongside a merch breaking the news that he was the probable artist behind the art. Interestingly, Ye has worked with the designer before and shared a history a bit personal.

Rubchinskiy was the very artist who designed two neck tattoos adorning the rapper spelling out his sons’ names. Additionally, he was probably in charge of designing the rapper’s merchandise before a controversial accusation ruled him out. Now, the Russian designer is again in charge of ‘Vulture’ merchandise after possibly designing the two-eagle-headed logo for the same. Meanwhile, the highly debated figure is also the owner of PACCBET fashion label, an inspiration likely coming from Yeezy.

In the meantime, the hype for the upcoming album has ascended mercurially as the rapper still remained stationed in Saudi Arabia.

Ye unlikely to return to the US anytime soon

Kanye West took his entire studio team to the holiday city of AlUla in Saudi Arabia. Soon after, the rapper threw a live performance of ‘Vultures’ alongside his collaborators in Dubai. The footage from the event broke the Internet as it marked the first time in months that the ‘Flashing Lights’ singer had performed one of his own upcoming songs. Along the lines of it, several personal developments also unfolded for the rapper.

The trip to Saudi Arabia and the UAE saw Kanye West stay accompanied by his daughter, North West. The duo went around several key locations and greeted fans. Not long after, Bianca Censori entered back into the scene after a long hiatus. Now, the latest reports have hinted the rapper looking to spend Christmas either in the Middle East or Italy alongside Censori and probably his kids. Thus, even if a Kanye West album were to launch this year, it likely would not come from US soil.
