Kanye West

<a href="http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/6-songs-you-didnt-know-kanye-west-produced-news.29200.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Kanye West</a> surprised us with the upload of this sprawling 17-minute r&#8217;n&#8217;b opus featuring singer/songwriter/producer <a href="/profile/TheDream" class="text-word" target="_blank" >The-Dream</a> on his Soundcloud early this morning. The rapper continues on the path of recovery since his breakdown earlier in the year, and while working on his next album, which is still titled <a href="http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/kanye-west-rumored-to-be-working-on-surprise-projects-for-2017-news.27769.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Turbo Grafx 16</a> as far as we know, he&#8217;s also stayed on track with the release of <a href="http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/yeezy-season-5-apparel-revealed-news.28987.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Yeezy Season 5 the other week.</a>
Kanye headed to the mid-2000s for his music choice at his recent fashion show&#8211; this song was played on a loop, <a href="http://pitchfork.com/news/71560-kanye-west-releases-new-version-of-the-dreams-bed-listen/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">according to Pitchfork</a>, and it&#8217;s presented in the same manner on Ye&#8217;s Soundcloud. Kanye recreates a record from <a href="/profile/JHoliday" class="text-word" target="_blank" >J. Holiday</a> that was written by The-Dream (so it&#8217;s not too far off to have the OG songwriter appear on this experimental new version). It&#8217;s a lush production, with a string arrangement, heavy synths and layered vocals, keeping the melody of the original song intact. Take a listen to this 2017 update and check out J. Holiday&#8217;s music video for the single below too.
Quotable Lyrics
When I put my fingers through your hair Wrap me up in your legs Then love you til your eyes roll back I&#8217;m tryna put you to bed
