Kanye West's 8th studio album Ye has been released across streaming services after premiering via a live stream from the listening party in Wyoming Thursday night. The album, which is 7 tracks in length, was shared to Spotify, Tidal, and Apple Music, complete with writing and production credits. Judging by the guests on the tracks, themselves still not credited in any official way, the credits included with the album appear to be incomplete (despite featuring multiple guests, closing track "Violent Crimes" features a single credit for Kanye West as writer and producer). Either way, the details should give fans an idea of who was involved with the making of each track. Producers who worked on the album include Mike Dean, Francis & The Lights. Uncredited guests include Kid Cudi, Jeremih, Ty Dolla $ign, and Nicki Minaj.
