On February 24, 2016, Kanye West tweeted that his eighth studio album would be released during the summer of that year under the title of Turbo Grafx 16, naming it after the video game console of the same name. The album has been certified platinum and gold in the United States and the UK by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and British Phonographic Industry (BPI), respectively. Top five positions were further attained in the Czech Republic, Denmark, Iceland, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. It was also a chart topper in Australia, Canada, Estonia, Ireland, and New Zealand, becoming West's second number one album in the first of the five territories. Ye gave West his eighth consecutive album to debut at number one on the US Billboard 200, tying him with Eminem's record. It was named as one of the best albums of 2018 by multiple publications, including NME and Pitchfork. The majority of them drew comparisons between the latter and West's previous works, while other critics had somewhat mixed feelings towards the lyrical content. Both of the singles attained top 20 positions on the US Billboard Hot 100, while the album received generally favorable reviews from music critics. " Yikes" and " All Mine" were released as singles in the summer of 2018 in support of Ye, with a lyric video being released for the latter simultaneously with one for non-single " Violent Crimes". West held a listening party for Ye on May 31, 2018, which was livestreamed from Jackson Hole. The latter's release was succeeded by that of Nas' Nasir, and Teyana Taylor's K.T.S.E. It preceded the release of West's collaborative album with Kid Cudi, as Kids See Ghosts, titled Kids See Ghosts. Succeeding the release of Pusha T's Daytona, the album was the second of five seven-track albums produced by West in what were referred to as the "Wyoming Sessions", which were set to be released weekly. West produced Ye with Mike Dean, alongside numerous others.
Guest vocals from PartyNextDoor, Ty Dolla Sign, Kid Cudi, Charlie Wilson, Jeremih, and 070 Shake, among others, are included. Following controversy surrounding an interview with TMZ, West re-recorded all the work on the album, with him completing it over the course of just two weeks at West Lake Ranch in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. It was released on June 1, 2018, through GOOD Music and distributed by Def Jam Recordings. Ye ( / j eɪ/ YAY stylized in all lowercase) is the eighth studio album by American rapper Kanye West.
