This weekend has been dominated by Kanye West content. Soon after the rapper debuted his new single "New Slaves" across 66 buildings around the world, he announced his new album title and confirmed a release date of June 18th. This was followed by a performance on Saturday Night Live last night, where he performed "New Slaves" as well as another new one, "Black Skinhead." On top of this, his baby mama posted a photo of what may be the cover art for Yeezus.

With only a month until Yeezus drops, 'Ye seems to be ready for a promo run. Check out his performance of "Black Skinhead" and "New Slaves" on SNL below. Yeezy also tweeted the lyrics for "Black Skinhead" after the show, which you can take a look at in the gallery above or via GotBars. Lyrics for "New Slaves" can be found here.
