At this point, The Life of Pablo has gone through so many transformations, we don’t know what’s even real anymore. From the album title being changed multiple times, to Kanye West updating the final product more times than we can count, it seems like something else Yeezy said wouldn’t happen is happening.
The project is not going to be a TIDAL exclusive after all.
Aside from TLOP being updated for the umpteenth time, it is being reported that Kanye’s new effort will be coming to Spotify, Apple Music, Google Music and Rhapsody after a month and a half of it sitting on TIDAL with allegedly 250 million streams.
Below are some of the changes coming to the “final” version of the album:
Ultra Light Beam: The choir is mixed better. Everyone’s vocals except Chancer the Rapper have a lot more reverb. There’s also new lyrics from Chance the Rapper and Kirk Franklin.
Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1: Background vocals at the end of Kanye’s verse and a little on the hook. The snare isn’t as loud as the original release. Beat is a lot more clear.
Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 2: New mix includes the addition of a bass line beginning at the 1:08 mark.
Feedback: It’s shorter. Kanye’s vocals are more balanced with the beat now. The bass is also a lot more mixed. Beat is a lot more different in general.
Highlights: Vocals now sit behind the beat. Young Thug’s vocals are a lot more clear and less harsh.
Freestyle 4: Vocals clarified, weird ass noises and strings added to the background, bass added right before Desiigner verse at 1:31 mark.
Waves: Kanye’s first verse is re-recorded. Lots more echos. The snare doesn’t make you deaf anymore!
FML: Vocal’s are more mixed. They sit on top of the beat now. Background vocals added.
30 Hours: The shoutout/adlib outro isn’t in time with the beat like it is in the original. He added the pause from the SoundCloud version for the Victoria’s Secret line.
No More Parties in LA: Transition to Facts is smooth. Not as jarring as it was before.
Facts: Piano line from MSG is back but is barely noticiable. Synths are a lot louder.
Fade: Way more minimal. The bass line is back too. More like the Yeezys SZN 2 performance. Doesn’t have all the cool sounds from the previous album version and the transitions aren’t as clean as before. It actually ends with an outro instead of cutting off.
